....geez, this is a joke 1 week 2 weeks 3 weeks Dec 7th Dec 9th ?????? Doctor's can't accurately describe what is wrong with his ankle? Officially on the bandwagon.Yao and Rockets need to part ways after this season. We either are babysitting him to the point its become crazy or Yao is really hurt.
I am Surprised on what kind of information is being fed to us Fans. They are either keeping it low profile to insure fools buy Tickets to the games or they are secretly just doing a T-mac scenario. I hope AB doesn't get the same end of the stick.
The Pistons are a half game behind us, record-wise. We've lost to Charlotte, Washington, Toronto, and Golden State already. I'm only surprised that you're underestimating any opponent at this point. We can't be talking trash at 7-13.
A TMac scenario was 0 mpg, then 7 mpg when he complained. Yao was playing 20+ minutes until he got hurt. So, I doubt this is a McGrady scenario, where they don't think he can be back at all or don't want him back. I also doubt there is any conspiracy there. Yao was already a step slow, being off his ankle for 3 weeks can't help with his muscle strength down there even after the sprain/bone bruise heals. In any case, most likely reason is that he's simply not 100% yet and, given that the team is playing decently of late (especially Brad Miller), they don't want to risk losing the game by giving him rehab minutes.
are you telling us you are still holding the hope he will be completely back to his peak time? otherwise, what bothers you so much? right now, i don't pay any special attention on him. he, in my mind, is just one of rox players, who got injured.
What were the chances that they would both actually play? One is made out of glass and the other one is a walking tree.
Yao Ming = afterthought. At this juncture, I don't know who is milking each other more, Les or Yao. I reckon from a business point of view, it might be worth to keep him around. Basketball wise, it is not even worth mentioning.
he sprained his ankle and ab did too. are you going to be tired of ab not being on court to help the team? if i am correct, sprainging ankle is one of the toughest injuries for doctor to predict when a player can return to play.
Good. I hope Yao leaves Houston after the season. I think he'd do quite well in Miami, Orlando, Chicago, Golden State, or maybe the Lakers!
They're gonna do the same Bull***** that they did to Mcgrady. They just know Yao won't say anything about it.
