Tiago Splitter Injury Update thread (right shoulder)

[mute]

Looked bad... he could barely even more afterwards. Will update as they become available.

[justinandimcool]

:lol :lol this team is going to be sub .500 without him. hating idiots will see how important he is.

[Jwash_1986]

Good now Baynes can play. Dude is worthless. I don't know how many times tonight he went up like a hoe. Spud Webb was 5'7" and went up harder than Splitter.

[marbles1991]

That fuck Hollins again. He is like an injury magnet for us. Parker got hurt running into him too.

[ducks]

hoping it is just a stinger
spurs atleast do not play tell tuesday

[Stabula]

Sprained right shoulder

[ducks]

Faker. For the refs. Selling the call he didn't get.

[Robz4000]

Sprained shoulder will prolly result in him missing 2-3 weeks imo. It's his shooting shoulder though so who knows.

[Reck]

:lol :lol this team is going to be sub .500 without him. hating idiots will see how important he is.

GTFO :lmao

[jeebus]

If Diaw is still sick on Tuesday, Thomas could get some run time in Memphis.

[ElNono]

Tiago has a history of taking a long ass time to recover from injuries, IIRC... as long as he suits up post ASG, we'll be fine, IMO...

This season or next season imo?

[Man In Black]

Let's hope it's a minor Grade 1. If that's the case, it's an easy 2 weeks...provided he has his full range of motion and strength.

[ElNono]

This season or next season imo?

:lol

[Sean Cagney]

Just great and win and now we have someone out.

[TheGoldStandard]

Charmin soft injury but played surprisingly well which was probably the tell tale sign that he was going to get hurt

[tim_duncan_fan]

playbaynes, playthomas, playtbh

[daslicer]

Does anybody have the clip of the injury?

[freetiago]

Hollins went full monkeyballer and jumped into him on a power dribble
their knees collided and shoulders hit hard

[Spurs_Be_Beastin']

Fuck Hollins ..

[DMC]

Noticed Nando reached out and slapped him on the back as he's walking to the locker room... not a heads up play.

He ain't hurt. He's faking. Wussy move.

[Biernutz]

Tiago is not a flopper. IF he hits the floor then he is hurt. The way he played Sat. till he got hurt
looks like he could be the best #2 To Duncan since David Robinson. Tiago's game is getting
better to make him a very good defense player and a good scorer around the paint. His passing
is improved as he knows the players now. He is worth every penny we paid in his last contract.

[Vito]

4 weeks

[Ice009]

He was actually playing well last night IMO. What a crappy injury.

Should he be out that long though? No way did I think he'd be out that long after seeing it on the replay.

What do you think, Man In Black?

[Fireball]

And Westbrook is already off crutches and will return (again) much sooner than predicted ... good bye #1 seed

[Horse]

Anyone find it funny he seperates his shoulder and still can't get a call.

[hater]

yes hes a pussy but hes the best bigman we have by far

big loss

[Amuseddaysleeper]

Fuck this season

[Budkin]

Fuck this season

Fuck every season since 06-07 tbh

[Man In Black]

Sounds like a Grade 2 Sprain. 3-5 sounds about right. If he sticks to pattern, it'll be 5 for sure. I hope he surprises us all.

[will_spurs]

He ain't hurt. He's faking. Wussy move.

Quality take per par.

Can you school me on the meaning of this lingo? I think i've pretty much got every other phrase down used here on ST except this one.

[monkeypunk]

It basically means "as usual" or "as expected".

The three Brazilians bigs tbh : Nene, Verajao and Splitter are all so fragile... The Wizards fans are even beginning to wonder if Nene is not faking it half the time :lol:...

:lol seriously

A la "par for the course" or "as expected" basically. One of the stupidest phrases on here...and there are plenty.

[exstatic]

The BEST thing that could happen to SA is if Westbrook plays hero and comes back early AGAIN. That's what got him into this current situation. He was supposed to be out until almost Christmas, and missed only two games at the beginning of the season, only to come up with more problems now. If it happens again, he could easily miss the playoffs. I hope for his sake that he's smarter than that, but I haven't seen many indications of patience, maturity, or wisdom on his part, so probably not so much.

He's a chest thumping monkeyballer that relies on quick bursts and sharp stops both of which are extremely taxing on knees. His ego won't let him sit out long enough to heal completely and this will directly impact his career performance. I'd posit that he'll never learn other fundamental skills (defense, passing) to offset his (soon to be) declining athleticism and in just a few years, he'll fade back into the 2nd and 3rd tier of pgs in the league.

The blame is as much on the medical and coaching staff at OKC for letting him push too hard as it is on him for trying to play as soon as he can walk.

The glue finally dried

[exstatic]

Danny's got to be getting close, too. He's been out since 4 January, 3.5 weeks.

[timtonymanu]

Huh? Didn't Green get hurt on the 12th vs Minny?

I think he's still out for another two weeks.

[loveforthegame]

Some good news finally. :tu

You're right.

[crc21209]

If Green doesnt come back 2/10 DET or 2/12 @BOS then it will be the first game after the ASB 2/18 @LAC.

Jeff McDonald @JMcDonald_SAEN
(https://twitter.com/JMcDonald_SAEN)Tiago Splitter (shoulder) progressing toward day-to-day in recovery. Status for Saturday vs Kings TBD at morning shootaround.

Jeff McDonald @JMcDonald_SAEN

One issue impacting Splitter's return is lack of practice time. Spurs did not work out on Thursday or Friday.

[timtonymanu]

Whatever can rid us of Ayres is welcomed.

[Mugen]

hopefully Boris can start and Tiago can be the first big off the bench. I'm actually in favor of the Ginger playing ahead of poor mans Kwame tbh.

[gnsf0946]

It'll probably be after ASG when Splitter gets normal minutes considering how big of a vagina the guy is and who knows how long it will take for him to get back in rhythm

I miss defense :cry

I wouldn't expect him to have any kind of defensive proficiency when he returns, it'll take him a few weeks to get back into the swing of things.

I just hope he's grown some balls in the time he's missed.

I hope They're not rushing him out there. I saw a tweet that he hasn't participated in any contact practices..

He would probably get hurt again

Splitter starting tonight per twitter

[look_at_g_shred]

Tiago must have been ready to come back for at least a week if he's starting his first game back. You know how Pop is extra cautious. Wouldn't be surprised to see Green back by next weekend.

[Biernutz]

We need his help to team with Tim...one more off the injury list so we can get back to our rotations.

[timtonymanu]

Splitter is gonna be rusty but its great to see him back. The defense should be improved.

[timtonymanu]

And again whatever can be done to give Ayres less minutes is a good thing.

[TheGoldStandard]

Wonder how many minutes he will play tonight. Should help overall though.

[heyheymymy]

gonna take a week or so to get conditioned but it's good to have him back

[wildchild]

Good. First player attempting to make comeback from injury. :flag:
