http://www.chron.com/cs/CDA/ssistory.mpl/sports/3440442 T-Mac laid out with back pain Rockets star is questionable for game tonight By FRAN BLINEBURY Copyright 2005 Houston Chronicle Friday afternoon, Rockets trainer Keith Jones virtually carried McGrady out of the locker room and into a Toyota Center hallway, where he was loaded onto a flatbed electric cart for the short ride to his car. McGrady grinned and grimaced as he went by. The rest of the Rockets frowned with concern. An awkward landing following a dunk near the end of practice sent McGrady limping off the court with back spasms and makes him questionable tonight against the New Orleans/Oklahoma City Hornets. "He's our guy," center Yao Ming said. "No one wants to see him go down. It scared people. It scared me." At this point, the medical and basketball staffs are trying not to sound the alarm. "We're treating him for pain associated with back spasms," Jones said in a statement released by the Rockets. "We'll be treating him throughout the day and evaluating him further. He's going to get a lot of treatment today, and we're not going to know anything until (today). Obviously, it's a game-time type decision." It is the latest in a series of physical problems suffered by McGrady since the start of training camp. He sat out the final two preseason games with tendinitis in both knees, then bruised his left knee when he collided with Dikembe Mutombo during the final workout before Wednesday's season opener. Then, he often hobbled around the floor while scoring 23 points in a 98-89 win over Sacramento. Prone to back spasms "He went up, he dunked the ball, he came down," said Rockets coach Jeff Van Gundy. "I didn't see much contact, if any. I don't know too much right now. I can't play doctor. He's been the victim of some unfortunate breaks so far this year as it pertains to injuries. So, we're hopeful." McGrady, 26, has suffered from chronic back spasms throughout his eight-year NBA career and received occasional treatment for them last season, his first in Houston. He missed just four regular-season games with the Rockets a year ago, while averaging 25.7 points to lead the team in scoring and rank sixth in the NBA. He hit nine of 21 shots in 38 minutes against the Kings, but McGrady said his bruised left knee took away his explosiveness and limited some of the things he could do. Yet he was optimistic that with rest between games, his condition would improve. "It's just constant pain," McGrady said after the game. "It was there all of the time and it's just something that I'll have to deal with and play through until it goes away. It's nothing that I'm concerned about for the long term. Give me a couple of days off and I think I'll feel better." Which he did, until the bad landing. Three-guard lineup? If McGrady, 6-8, is unable to play against the Hornets (1-1), his spot on the starting front line could be taken by Ryan Bowen, 6-9, who played seven minutes against Sacramento. Or Van Gundy might go with a three-guard lineup against the Hornets, inserting David Wesley to play with Rafer Alston and Derek Anderson. 明天可能用豹纹先发顶替踢妹妹.... 也有可能用三个後卫同时先发 Wesley,Alston,DA... "It's a long season," Anderson said. "We've got a lot of guys in here and, hopefully, he'll be back soon. It looked bad, whatever it was." It didn't look any better when McGrady was carried out on the cart. -------------- orz 希望踢妹没事阿 QQ 早日康复 QQ -- █ █ █ ◢◤ ◥◣ ◥◣ ◢◤ █ █ █ ◥◣ ◢ ◣ █◢◣ ◢█◣ ◣◢◣ █ ◢ █ ◢█◣ █ █ ◢█◣ ◥◣ ● 打不死 █◤█ █◤█ ▉█ █◢█ █ █◤█ █ █ █◤ ◢◤ ● (￣▽￣＃) █ █ █◢█ █◤ █◥▇ █ █◢◤ ◥██ █ ◢ ◢◤ ◥ ◤ ◥█◤ ◥◤◥ ◥ █ ◥ █ ◥▇◤ ◥▇◤ ◥█◤ ◥◣ ◢◤ ◢◤ ◥◣根 --
