    I guess we will find out how much losing Yao matters to the Rockets.

    It will be huge, but not as bad as losing TMac...

    Team will probably run more......

    I just bet a TON on the over at 187.5...I think the team will run and our defense will suffer.

    Well, I guess it's gonna be 1 vs 5 instead of 2 vs 5 tonight. Damn that sucks. Yao was playing w/ a messed up toenail the whole time right? Guess it got torn off or something.

    Hope he gets better soon. He was playing his best basketball of the year.

    These injuries of ours are getting ridiculous...our inactive list tonight could be one of the better teams in the East: Yao, DA, Alston, JB, Sura...Hopefully Yao recovers quickly...Tonight's game just got a whole lot more interesting...Swift better step up his game...

    That is EXACTLY what's on my mind. NONE of the Chinese websites (sina.com, sohu.com and tom.com) had coverage on this.

    If Yao Ming is with this injury and went back to Houston, it will already be BREAKING NEWS there on those sites.

    I'll take Rockets PR as a source over China media...but then again, that's just me....

    We should have lost so we can get Reggie Bush!

    (Your not going to be able to talk about anything else Matt - not even on a Rockets board in the Rockets forum :p )

    DD,

    I figured I'd let you know that my betting had taken a turn for the better.

    I started out 0-3 on spread bets. I said screw this and switched to over/unders. I am 6-1 with those. :D
