I think they were just done for the night since we were up by 25.

Hard to say for sure, but after they'd cleared the benches, ESPN showed Manu and Pop talking about his back, then Pop sent him back to the locker room.


Didn't seem to be anything major; Manu looked like his back was either sore or tightening, but didn't seem to be in an extraordinary amount of pain. He kind of tried to shake it off at first, but Pop pointed him to the locker room. Probably sent him back for quick treatment (as well as Bogans and RJ), considering they've got a quick turnaround flight and B2B game today.

well he had the Spurs on his back for 36 minutes. Hopefully after a hot tub and massage he will be fine

You mean the last few weeks?

well the last few weeks he's been the main man but Pop has been giving him rest. I beleive he rarely played over 30 mpg. But last night, when he came out in the 3rd quarter I beleive, Celtics scored 7 straight points, So Pop was forced to put him back in and overplay him

I was gonna bring that up ealrier. I searched some articles from the "local paper" (that shall remain nameless) here in SA, but nothing on Manu's back. Weird.

He walked to the locker room quite easily and was slapping high fives and Bogans and Jefferson looked OK too.

No biggie IMO.
