And his usual 25 games of injuries begin.
Left the Lakers/Rockets game and headed to the hospital with a strained elbow I believe. No link, as they just said it on the LA feed of the game (KCAL9).
And his usual 25 games of injuries begin.
Jesus... what is it with this guy that he just can't stay healthy?
Well, at least it's not his back.
Funny thing is, the Rockets are within 3 points in the third quarter without him.
Man the Rockets are killing themselves with all the missed free-throws. Especially Yao
He pushes himself too hard and thinks he's immortal. Manu pushes himself hard too, but realizes he has limits.
And yes, that's vastly oversimplifying things, but it's easy to see how McGrady tries to do too much.
Rafar Alston is garbage.
Man, that sucks. I don't think it will be that many games if even 2. I hope not. I hope we play the Rockets full strength.
why the wasn't luther head in the game setup to take that shot.
I doubt it
I know, take the guy out who missed 5 open 3's the whole game.
Even if Houston has a deep team clicking, I'm not sold on Adelman coaching at a championship level. His Kings choked. I wonder if he'll teach Houston how to choke with their offense as well.
Anyway, I hope McGrady is in the next game.
It is being speculated that all of the pain that he had is associated to the nerve running through the elbow being pinched...that can produce serious pain even for several days. The MRI that he is currently getting is to determine whether or not there was any tear in the ligament. If there is no tear, he shouldn't miss much time at all.
My guess is that it is somewhere middle of the road in terms of seriousness.

Kind of suprising, I thought Grant Hill would go down first.
That sucks for Rox. I would have liked to see how far the team went with the two of them healthy. Hopefully it isn't too serious.
thanks.
We should see some S.Francis PT in the next few games(acc.to M.Bullard)......
------He rebounds really well
----- Gives the hard foul to the PG driving the lane & won't help him up
------Finishes at the rack with a surgeons precision
------Makes his FTs and can hit the 3
------Plays with a lot of heart
now, can he keep the dribbling and T/Os under control
i'm sure this is JVG's fault somehow.
We aren't gonna see Francis. Adleman played Luther Head, and Snyder ahead of him. Every freaking player except Francis saw playing time. At first I was willing to give Adleman the benefit of the doubt but now it is completely blatent and unfair. Adleman is really pissing off the entire Houston fanbase.
*This just in, early indication is that this is: *
Not serious(no ligament tear), he shoud be out a week, maybe less according to Tmac repeating the doc's early MRI reading.
Very good news for Rocket Fans but he probably won't play friday which is a shame
Will NOT play against SA or Phoenix, so mark a probable 4 game slide.
I know last yr we beat SA w/out Yao once and without Tmac once, but don't feel good about this at all.
At least it's not too serious..too bad he won't likely play on Friday, but I'd rather him recover quickly anyway.
I guess he's looking to get rid of him.
I wonder why Adelman didn't put Scola in as a post up option with Yao in the 4th quarter. He sucked a little in the first half, but he also made some hustle plays and half his shots...He should play him more since it's early in the season
He seems to be relegated to the role of inbounds passer so far. Adelman probably doesn't have much confidence in him yet.
The only thing I saw tonight with McGrady gone was Yao Ming in the post and Bonzi given a green light. And players taking bad shots. It became pretty predictable.
i love tmacs talent and skill, i hope he gets back on the court soon.
The good news for T-Mac -- it's only a strain.
Tracy McGrady sat in front of his locker, wearing gray slacks, an undershirt and had his right arm in a sling.
"It looks like my 2007-2008 season is over," he said to the throng of reporters.
After everyone gasped, he smiled.
"I'm just bull(bleeping) you," he said.
The preliminary results of the MRI performed at Memorial Hermann Hospital showed a strain. Dr. Tom Clanton called it a "day-to-day" injury. But McGrady said he was told that he could be out for a week.
"I've got a strained elbow and stretched nerve, whatever that means," McGrady said. "Some inflammation around the elbow. We'll see how I feel tomorrow and the next day.
"It's definitely good news because I actually thought it could be a lot worse than what it was and I could be out a lot longer. Considering that they say I could possibly miss a week or less than that, it's good information for me."
he's a pussy
