Bad news for Rockets, T-Mac

Yesterday it was announced that Tracy McGrady could miss up to 5 weeks because of his injured back. Oh boy. Click here for the story.

This is going to make a serious dent on Houston’s playoff hopes. Yao has been playing fantastic lately, and the Rockets have won their last two games without T-Mac, but to finish out the majority of the season without T-Mac and still make the playoffs is going to be tough.

Hopefully everyone else can pick up the slack, like Keith Bogans, who scored 14 points in T-Mac’s absence Wednesday night. But the Rockets’ chances aren’t good.

Let’s think positive, though, starting Sunday afternoon against the World Champion San Antonio Spurs.

Depressing, huh?
