[Chinese Government]Just as long as he's ready for the Olympics[/Chinese Government]

this is his 3rd straight year with a major injury?

still...nobody is as injury prone as us. We are the most injury pro team in all of professional sports. Butler has become as fragile as Larry Hughes

Fire Adelman for playing him too many minutes.

Seriously though that sucks. The Rockets were really starting to gel.

I'd rather take half a season of Butler, than a full season of Hughes.

..anyway, there are obvious problems with Yao's feet/ankles and they just dont hold his weight.

Well, that's one pre-season MVP pick down the drain.

That is horrible. Hopefully, he'll be 100% next season.

But I've got to say to Rockets fans - Welcome to our world.

True. You see very few NBA players taller than 7-2 that last for any substantial length of time.

basketball injuries are the most devastating of all the sports. you can lose a starting QB in the NFL and still make the playoffs but you lose your best NBA player and your done

LOL

Yeah, I think the name of it was "My Giant Left Foot"

I heard Gheorghe Muresan was his stunt double.
