"It's really a shot," said Dr. Walt Lowe, of the Memorial Hermann Sports Medicine Institute. Lowe performed the procedure. "It's not a surgical procedure. It's a 20-minute deal. I don't think it's a very big deal," Lowe told FOX26 Sports on Wednesday.

"I would certainly expect him before the playoffs," Lowe said. "I really expect him to recover and play again this season."

Bone on Bone breh, that's his knees. A Big man, with no skills, dependent 100% on Athletic ability having knee problems at the age of 30 Not like he has a T Duncan skill set. nikka is done.

You guys gotta look at this with perspective.

How much money could he have made with the Lakers, $100 + Mill... him turning that down was a gift from god to this Franchise after struggling these last couple years. Yes it put us out of contention but if he signed, then the knee problems came, with an already injured Kobe, that would have crippled this team for a looooonnnggg time.

So yea, we dodged a bullet.

And it's not like he's beasting. nikka is Averaging 16 and 11, them struggle big man numbers for a guy worth $100 mill. If you pay a big man that much money he better be putting up at least 20+ and 10 with 3 blocks.

Why are people still talking this 30 mill talk? Do you understand the taxes in California compared to Texas? :heh:

If it was JUST about the taxes.... Dwight Coward would've pulled a Royce White, and only play home games or in Florida.

he's still paying taxes in every other state the Rockets play in.

We already had threads discussing this, the difference was like 5% from CA to a state like FL. Granted that's still a lot on a 100 million dollar contract, but not as much as originally thought. Apparently bruhs missed the memo

:yeshrug: He went from one first round exit to another first round exit, no difference at all. :mjpls:

Wrong...he went from First round exit with his chance to show he was the man and could carry the team

to

First round exit not being able to carry his weight as the 2nd [sometimes 3rd] option

:sas2:

They're making it out like that extra 30 million, was somehow gonna vanish in taxes.
