kArLc® Reacts: Yao Ming's Playoff-ending injury

YAO MING OUT OF THE PLAYOFFS

Could it get worse for my beloved Houston Rockets, well the worst did happen. Yao Ming is now out for the rest of the 2009 NBA Playoffs due to a hairline fracture on his left foot. This was found after an earlier diagnosis showed that he suffered a left ankle sprain during the Rockets' Game 3 loss to the Los Angeles Lakers 108-94. Although no surgery is required, he would be out for 2-3 months.

My reaction to this injury is that I am now questioning myself on how long the Rockets would last in the Playoffs without Yao Ming. And right now the Rockets have no legitimate center (Deke got injured in the first round vs Portland). I still hope that they can BEAT L.A. without Yao and T-Mac. Because we trust RON ARTEST, but if they would bow out of the playoffs. That would hurt a little, but I will be happy this year, because they got out of the first round.

BEAT L.A.
WIN IT FOR YAO
LET'S GO ROCKETS
