I know he returns yesterday from an injury and it was supposed to be a 2 to 4 weeks before he completely healed but I'm concerned about his condition. I mean, I think he's okay but I think he should rest for a while now to reserve it for a playoffs or Pop should just limit his minutes in playing.
By the way, I've found this one in NBA.com:
SAN ANTONIO – At shootaround in the morning, Tony Parker said he couldn’t run, couldn’t jump, couldn’t shoot, couldn’t do anything.
Once the game started on Friday night, the Heat couldn’t do anything to stop him.
Parker was supposed to be sidelined for two to four weeks with a strained calf muscle, but was surprisingly back in the lineup against the Heat after missing just two games and practically made the evening his own. He set the tone early, never loosened his grip, finishing with 15 points and eight assists in the Spurs’ most impressive win of the season.
“The foie gras and truffles treatment worked really well,” cracked coach Gregg Popovich.
“He’s either the fastest healer I’ve ever seen or he only had a cramp or a bruise,” said Miami’s Dwyane Wade, shaking his head. “I’ve had a strained calf and it takes a while to get over.”
The Spurs got over on the Heat from the opening tip when Manu Ginobili controlled the ball and sailed in for a layup. From that point on, Parker ran the floor, pushed the tempo, spread the ball around the offense and led San Antonio on a 36-12 blitz from while Miami never recovered.
Through the years, Parker has been the favorite whipping boy of Popovich and the favorite target of any criticism by the San Antonio fans. But as the Spurs have run off to a franchise record 51-11 mark — best in the NBA — Parker has been nothing but brilliant. And somehow he was left off the Western Conference All-Star team.
“That’s what he’s been doing for us all season, running that point guard position, making the right passes and finishing when he has to,” said Spurs forward Tim Duncan.
The Spurs’ captain chuckled.
“I think he’s a faker, honestly,” Duncan said. “I don’t think he wanted to go on that trip (to Memphis and Cleveland). He wanted someone to beg him to come back. ‘Oh, Tony, we miss you.’ So I did it and he came back.”
First Parker devoured the foie gras and truffles, then he gobbled up the Heat.

Based from the first line, I think he just force himself to play? and I love also what Duncan have said from the last line. :toast
