luckily for cleveland, they have the all-star backcourt of eric snow and damon jones, whom tonight shot a combined 1-10 for eight points.

So unfortunate. Hopefully someone will step up big time in his absence.

Wow, nobody saw that one coming.

I would be very interesting in knowing if ,ever, someone, has seen an injury coming. Unless he was watching an 18- wheeler coming straight at him, that is.

He has a history of injuries. Obviously, it was bound to happen again.

For a few seasons there everytime Vince Carter went down with an injury, I'm sure most of us at least half-expected it to have happened sooner or later.

But Carter is 6'7, 225 or 230 and Hughes is two inches smaller and forty pounds lighter. And they play the same position. If he had that AI-like ability to bang without getting hurt big time, we would have noticed it till now.

I wasn't actually comparing Vince to Hughes, rather responding to D-Weaver's suggestion with another reference to Carter's injury woes. I realise it wasn't particularly witty but as far as the topic is concerned I don't have much to say except state the obvious, that being Hughes' injury is a blow to the Cavs.

If that was the cae, Zydrunas Ilgauskas would be walking in crunches for teh rest of his life. Not to mention he cannot get past metal detectors.

It's not the same thing. Z had foot problems. Once he got over that hump, he was free of injuries. Hughes on the other hand has everything falling apart - same with Shaun Livingston.
