對于火箭而言，這不是一個好圣誕節。圣誕前夕，火箭在主場負于快船，輸球事小，但是姚明因為右膝脛骨骨裂將至少缺席六周，這讓火箭遭遇巨大打擊。姚明職業生涯前三個賽季僅僅缺陣兩場，但是上賽季因右腳腳趾感染缺陣21場，賽季末又因為骨折缺席最后4場。上賽季他場均22.3分，在全聯盟的中鋒中高居榜首。本場比賽前他場均得到26.8分和9.7個籃板，那是NBA最有價值球員的水準。

Yao
Ming will miss at least six weeks after
fracturing the bone
under his right knee in Houston's game against the Los Angeles Clippers on
Saturday night.
Yao was leaping for a blocked shot as Chuck Hayes and Tim Thomas hit the
floor beneath him. Yao's knee appeared to get caught under Thomas' body and Yao
immediately grabbed his knee and screamed in pain.
Yao was taken to Memorial Hermann Hospital in Houston, where an MRI test
revealed a fracture on Yao's right
tibial plateau, trainer Keith Jones
said.
The Rockets initially said Yao had only suffered a bone bruise. Now, Jones
said he hopes the injury will not require surgery.
"It's a non-displaced fracture,
so nothing is way out of the way or out of whack," Jones said. "We think he'll
do well with just rest. An option would be to do something more, but we're
hoping that won't need to be done."
Without Yao, the Rockets lost to the Clippers 98-93.
The injury ruins the best start of Yao's career. He was averaging 27 points
and nine rebounds and had topped 30 points in four consecutive games before
scoring 22 in Friday's 97-78 victory at San Antonio.
The Rockets were already playing without six-time All-Star Tracy McGrady, who
sat out for the seventh straight game with back spasms.
The 7-foot-6, 310-pound Yao now faces rehabilitation for the third time in a
year. Last December, he underwent surgery for a toe infection and missed 21
games. Last April, he broke his left foot in Utah and missed the final four
games of the season.
