if you are rivers

[ducks]

you got your split in game one do you rest paul and let that hamsring heal more. he got the split in Houston not home

I would sit him

[MateoNeygro]

I'd play my best players.

[MateoNeygro]

Hamstrings are so iffy though so I get where you are coming from. It can happen at anytime. I guess I'd start him and monitor his condition as the game progresses. Why is this is the Spurs forum?

[BatManu20]

Reports are that he is likely Not going to play.

You dont need him against a fraud team like the fucking choke-ettes :lol

[Clipper Nation]

Not sure I agree with sitting him unless he's really not ready to play. Paul had a similar hamstring injury last year and still played the whole series against GSW. Unless Houston manages to let a Junior-led team shit on them again (possible but unlikely), I'd rather go for 2-0 than settle for a split and possibly breathe new life into the Rockets. Hopefully the fact that it's Chris' birthday today motivates the rest of the team to step up again in his absence, though.

[Obstructed_View]

Depends on if they aspire to go to the conference semifinals or if they want to win it all. The playoffs are long and hamstrings are problematic. They beat the Rockets without Paul the first time. Let him rest another game and try it again.

[Budkin]

I would sit him. Don't be greedy and risk further injury. You got the split.

[Horse]

Sit that flopping pussy and realize Blake is you're best player

[DarrinS]

Play the long game

[therealtruth]

It makes me sick he isn't playing yet he was good enough to play on Saturday? Ridiculous.

41 points in 2 without cp3

The league hates us and stop at nothing to beat us, that's why. His lungs could've been taken out on Saturday and he still would've come back with gills, breathing like a fucking fish and still hitting shots.

Paul went otherworldly in Game 7. Not only to keep playing on the bad hamstring, but to will his team to victory through it.

I may not like that little punkass...but what he did in that game was pretty outstanding.
