    Damn that sucks!!
    I was really counting on them to push the nuggets out of the playoffs..
    I believe they will do it to themselves with all the selfishness on that team.

    Back to the subject, it sucks Yao is constantly getting injured. They were making a push, looks like now they will have to play small/aggressive high tempo style.

    I really like Yao, but the Rockets were the biggest match up problem for the Spurs



    that won't be an issue now

    I couldn't resist. I was wondering if I was stepping over the line.
    I would say you did. You must not remember Dave's back well or you wouldn't say that. Don't bring us bad karma.

    Sorry Rox fans for the loss of Yao, we know how it feels.

    They were hot and were looking good, but its going to be very tough now. They should go after someone like Jamaal Magloire. He's not close to what Yao is, but at least he's a big body to throw out there.

    Let's hope for him that he won't miss Beijing Olympic Games.

    Get well soon Yao.

    If I were the Rockets, I would consider tanking the rest of the year.

    Really, there's no point going to the playoffs if your going to loose in the 1st round.

    Try to get a good draft pick and regroup for next year.

    Going back to what timvp said I can't think of a non-Spur that I would feel worse for. Just thinking about all the pressure that a man in his position had to carry. Being a #1 pick alone has cracked some guys. But he had to contend with that, being hailed as the harbinger of the next phase of international ball, playing in the shadow of Hakeem Olajuwon, and a media and fanbase that blows hot one minute and cold the next. He's handled it all with incredible dignity his entire career. And for it to happen while he's playing as well as he ever had? Man that's rough.

    Cross one contender off the board.

    Yao is one my faves not playing for San Antonio. My question now would be, can Luis Scola be that dominant interior player that Houston can go to in spurts to carry them?

    wow, lots of love here for an opponent, and I agree, that really sucks. the rockets were on a tear, the Southwest was going to put 4 teams in the playoffs, and then this

    time for Scola to shine.

    That's what Houston gets for buying cheaper inferior good from WalMart. Everyone knows the best stuff is at Target. All their stuff is manufactured in Argentina, France and the Virgin Islands.

    Rick Smits all over again.

    Yao is too tall. It would be okay if he were really athletically built which would help him handle the size/height. But he really isn't. He works really hard to maintain the muscle he has - he's really a naturally really tall, skinny dude.
