HOUSTON (AP)—Yao Ming’s(notes) broken foot is not healed and the Houston Rockets say the All-Star center is out indefinitely.

Yao suffered a hairline fracture in his left foot in the Rockets’ second-round playoff loss to the Lakers on May 8. The team initially said Yao would miss eight to 12 weeks, but team doctor Tom Clanton examined Yao’s foot in Houston on Wednesday and said the injury has not responded to the treatment program.

The Rockets will never be a threat while relying on Yao or T-Mac.

Big men always end up with bad feet. I wonder if this is career threatening.

 

[THE HCP]

That's too bad! Hope he's OK.

What are you talking about? The Blazers swept the Rockets and went on to win the NBA Championship.

Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to go have a threesome with Jessica Alba and Jessica Biel.

It's unfortunate that Yao waited until the 2nd round to have his customary breakdown.

Sounds like they may move T-Mac, Landry and Brooks for Amare and Barbosa. Not sure if that makes the Rockets a ton better.

yes, this is definitely news. everything i'd heard up until this point was about how yao's injury was not as bad as his previous ones and that it would simply take 8-12 weeks of rest with no surgery for it to heal.

it's been the 8 weeks and it hasn't healed like it's supposed to so now they are trying to figure out the next step.
