Parker IRM OK, cleared for basketball

[eric365]

He says the last IRM is ok. He is completly healed but need 2 months to be back in NBA form
He expect to play for end of November instead of January

I ll let you google translate the rest :)

«Vous passiez une IRM de contrôle ce week-end. Comment allez-vous?
J'ai eu des bonnes nouvelles ! Mon tendon est guéri. J'ai beaucoup bossé et ça a payé. Pour que j'aie autant d'avance sur ma récupération aujourd'hui, le “free travail” a aussi été très important. Le fait de bien manger, de faire attention à tout, a compté.

Concrètement, quand vous revoit-on sur les parquets NBA?
J'ai le feu vert des médecins. Maintenant, je peux être sur le terrain ! Mais j'ai évidemment besoin de me remettre en forme. Je pense qu'il me faut encore deux bons mois. Mon objectif est de revenir fin novembre, ce qui ferait presque deux mois d'avance par rapport à ce qu'on m'avait annoncé juste après l'opération, où on parlait de mi-janvier.

Avez-vous déjà repris le ballon et fait quelques shoots?
Oui bien sûr ! Je shoote comme avant, normalement. Je cours à huit miles (12,8 km/h) sur le tapis de course. J'ai repris le jeu à petite intensité et sans aucune douleur.

Dans ces conditions-là, vous n'avez pas envie de revenir plus vite?
Je dois être patient. Il faut que j'utilise ma jambe gauche autant que ma jambe droite. Si je revenais dès demain, j'utiliserais trop ma jambe droite et ça créerait des tendinites à répétition. Je veux prendre le temps pour revenir. Revenir vraiment. Au niveau qui était le mien au début des derniers play-offs. Mon retour, c'est moi qui le programme. Et de toute façon, même pour fin novembre, il va falloir convaincre Pop (Gregg Popovich, le coach des Spurs) maintenant. Si ça ne tenait qu'à lui, je ne jouerais pas avant les play-offs (il éclate de rire) !

Comment les Spurs ont-ils suivi votre rééducation?
Ils ont toujours été là. Même Pop, qui ne vient jamais me...
The rest of the interview needs an insider account but I ll have the complete interview tomorrow

Leave it to Parker to do his MRI backwards.

[Spurtacular]

Just like Kobe, Shaq, Malone, Payton did.

[Seventyniner]

Leave it to Americans to do their acronyms backwards.

Need numbers on agility drills pre and post injury

[Chinook]

I believe I said as much in the original injury thread. Still think Pop will keep him out longer unless the PGs are awful.

[ElNono]

Spurs should be careful and sit him until post ASB, IMO...

Plus Kawhi and Manu should get the bulk of the ball handling early in the season anyways, since they're our two best playoff performers...

Why rest him?

[tmtcsc]

If his aim is anything like his shot, we won't see him ever.

[ElNono]

Why rest him?

so Kawhi can have the ball more...

[tholdren]

His playoffs last year were great until injury. Reg season sucked, but only the last 16 matter

[tholdren]

so Kawhi can have the ball more...

Meh, id rather have kl rest than tony

Post playoffs imo

Good news tbh. I needed some good news. This has been the worst week of my entire life.

Are you alright? You don't have to give any details.

Hope you are good Rasta. Were you affected by any of these hurricanes. This site always has some humor, it's just sometimes too much of weirdo humor. :lol

[SAGirl]

Glad to see he's healthy. Just make sure he's brought along gradually IMO. Unfortunately, I don't trust Tony's body to not get some nag pretty quickly again. I do wish I wasn't this jaded about his health but I am already expecting him to be out again after coming back.

[UZER]

Tony is scared to lose his starting job like drew Bledsoe. :lol

[Brazil]

Great news.. dude is a boss

[BillMc]

Tony is scared to lose his starting job like drew Bledsoe. :lol

Are you predicting Mills is the NBA equivalent of Tom Brady? :lol

[Seventyniner]

I wonder how much Parker's rehab schedule affected PATFO's offseason plans? If Parker had a setback some time in June and had a March timetable, what else might they have done?

[UZER]

Are you predicting Mills is the NBA equivalent of Tom Brady? :lol

Nope. Tony Romo :lol

[cd021]

Murray is gonna be buried on the bench again after November

[Play Boban]

Also clear to eat Whataburger tbh.

[TheGreatYacht]

Great news. Parker on his worst day is infinitely better than Pitty Mills and Fathead the second

That starting job is his by default

[rastaspur]

I lost my brother. He died in a car wreck. Buried him friday. That's two siblings in a decade. It hurts bad

[rastaspur]

Lost my older brother. It stings bad

I'm sorry brother.

Very sorry to hear that man. Condolences to you and your family.

Life itself is a gift to be treasured. It seems the longer one lives the closer it gets to be drilled home sadly. I am sorry for your loss. To lose someone so close so unexpectedly I can't imagine. I always have this feeling that among my siblings and me I am going home first. I am the oldest and I have had delicate health, no need to elaborate. Truth is no one knows when their time is come. May he rest in peace and you and yours find peace and solace too.

[FkLA]

God damn it why couldn't he be 2 months behind schedule. Or better yet 2 years. :pctoss

[Ice009]

Lost my older brother. It stings bad

Geez man, so sorry to hear that. Was the car wreck out of his control? Anyone else with him?

[rastaspur]

I'm sorry brother.

Thank you. Although it was tragic, nothing was unsaid between us and it ended on the best of terms. A heavy heart but a light conscience.

[rastaspur]

Very sorry to hear that man. Condolences to you and your family.

Thanks, bill. I appreciate it. He died way too young (41) but lived his life to the fullest.

Kind words from a kind soul. Thanks, sa girl. This is why you are one of my favorite posters. You are the attic us finch of spurstalk.

All apologies for any snappiness I have directed towards you on here. I can be a grump on occassion. Thanks for looking past that a time or two.

[rastaspur]

It was completely unavoidable. A transfer truck did some real egregious stuff. It is being criminally investigated and I hope the driver is held accountable for his actions. After that aspect is over hopefully a hefty jury verdict can give his wife and 20 year old child some financial security. They had nothing saved up. College costs way too much nowadays. Felt so sorry for them I paid the funeral expenses and set aside enough money to get him through college.

Just got to be strong and fill the void as the father figure role. I'm up for it. Haven't even smoked weed since it happened. I want to be a better man moving forward to honor his legacy.

Hey man, I read this a little while ago, but just didn't know how to reply. That's rough, even more-so if it wasn't his fault. That makes it even tougher to handle. Hopefully you can do right by helping out your brother's son and family. I hope it works out for you man.

[look_at_g_shred]

What's an IRM? I'm lost..

Apparently December is the expected return date.

“I think he’s going to be ahead of schedule,” Popovich said. “I kept thinking he might be ready in January or something. He might be ready in December. He’s come along really well.”

In that, Popovich put clarity to the timeline for Parker’s return.
The 35-year-old has said he is targeting a November return. Popovich, however, doesn’t want Parker to get too far ahead of schedule.

[LittleCriminal]

Is it me or does Parker always look like some regular spurs fan looking to buy breakfast tacos around 3pm At Ruthies in San Antonio.
Being in the NBA you would think working out would be a necessary thing... Has he ever worked out his upper body??
I do miss those all day breakfast tacos though...

[TheGreatYacht]

Parker doesn't look like 400 pound Mexican tub of lard, so no. He doesn't look like he eats San Antonio breakfast tacos

Is it too early to talk about the Phoenix?

Not too early, but it's safer to wait for him to get back...

[Brazil]

dabom dat sig is gonna be juicy :lol

[Seventyniner]

The ashes are getting warm...

[tonight...you]

Lost my older brother. It stings bad
Ah man...
My most sincerest condolences.
I lost my momma 5 years ago. My father 2 years prior.

It's a terrible pit of memories and descent you can allow yourself into.
Just know that there are peeps that feel your pain and wish you nothing, but the best and if you want to PM- please feel free.
