Most likely to sustain an injury in the West?

[MrChug]

Who is it? One or more of these Western Conference teams (knock on wood) could sustain an injury that could drastically change their destiny, so who's the most likely? Utah's 2 top players Boozer and Kirilenko are widely considered "oft-injured". Houston currently has T-Mac out and Yao's feet are always in question. Lakers have their problems with their big 2, Lamar's currently out. Amare is one hard landing from re-injuring EITHER knee for the Suns. Even the Spurs have questions with each of our big three :cry.

I think the Mavs will stay healthy, but feel free to debate, who is the most likely to see their fantastic early season success go away because of injury?

You have pointed out in good detail which teams are injury prone. Any injury is bad but if a player was to have one, now is the time.

This poll has bad juju written all over it . . .

[nkdlunch]

most likely? what the hell?

how about most likely city to get a terrorist attack. I;m not voting cause of karma

[AFBlue]

NEVER THE SPURS! j/k

:lol

[SilverPlayer]

seriously don't post crap like this...bad for the karma.

[dg7md]

Yeah, really, don't let Karma get us!

Rockets usually seem to have injury problems though.

[MrChug]

Then just don't pick the Spurs. If you're too weak minded to even speculate, take you and your superstitions and enjoy them...break a leg!!! :clap

Anyway, this question may have already been settled by T-Mac's back.

Shoog, so do you think this will catastrophically affect the Rockets' season? Or just a few losses?

[ShoogarBear]

Hard to say. When he went out last year, I don't think anyone expected him to be out as long as he was (35 games). But it's clear that back problems never really go away.

With Battier and (maybe) Bonzi, Houston is better prepared to endure a prolonged absence than they were last year. But if T-Mac is out 20+ games, they will kiss a top 4 seed goodbye. And if he's out 30+ making the playoffs is going to be tough.

Jazz.... it's thier turn.

[MrChug]

it wont be the spurs. the spurs never get season ending injuries. so im certian that the spurs will not have a single injury to speak of.

i hereby gaurantee that the spurs will not suffer any injuries this year.

AAAAAGGGHGHHH *no jinx*no jinx*!!! :madrun

[SAGambler]

As long as T-Mac is in the West, he will always be the most likely to "go down". Back problems are something you just never get over.

[The_Game]

Jazz.... it's thier turn.

Their turn? It's their turn NOT TO HAVE INJURES

"Booooooooooo" to this thread! I don't even want to think about ANY of these teams suffering from an injury! Let's wish them all health...it's more fun to beat them when they're 100%.
