    They weren't gonna win, but damn! If he was gonna break his foot it would have been nice 2 weeks ago. You could see an injury coming after he was playing 40+ minutes every night.

    My thoughts exactly. Adelman played Yao in the series vs Portland like it was the NBA finals. Maybe it was for him. Maybe he felt like he had to get to the 2nd round to keep his job.

    Sure, maybe he gets hurt playing 30 minutes/game. I don't believe that, but it's debatable. I had a strange feeling this was going to happen. I told my wife "watch Yao break down in the 2nd round from playing 40 minutes/game vs the Blazers."

    As a Blazer fan, I know how it feels.

    Chin up, Rockets/Rockets' fans.

    How do you know? The Rockets won in LA, and are a good home team. They could have given LA trouble.
