Shaq was looking so great tonight, then he limps off when no one even touches him.

Whose idea was it to put all our chips on a 39 year old?

The good news is that it seems to be a calf strain, nothing serious.

But his long term health is a serious concern. Can we realistically expect 10-20 mins from him per playoff game?

never ever give a patient with an achilles injury a cortisone injection: edit thank heavens its a calf

can we do it without him?
 Playoff rotation:
Jo 26, Nenad 14, Baby 8
KG 33, Baby 15
PP 34, Green 14
Ray 35, DW 13
RR 38 DW 10

its not horrible but we are a little smaller. Im praying for a miracle...maybe it was a plantar fascia but he looked like something ripped

C'mon now....still too early to make assumptions. Let's get an official word on what's going on with Shaq first, and then even if it's the worst case scenario we still have enough players to contend.

Danny's idea.

Right Calf muscle sprain according to Greg Dickerson just now.

We need both O'neals if we're going to win banner 18.

Let's hope so, and let's hope it's a minor sprain.

It's a strain not sprain. Similar to what KG had earlier this year.

Thank God.

Rest him for a few more weeks (ugh), and he'll be fresh by 1st part of May I guess? Just in time for 2nd round of playoffs.

Too early to say. It doesn't sound too serious, but what is serious is if he can actually be healthy enough for the playoffs.
