Parker might not play?

[sprrs]

Just heard it on Ksat. From the hit he took in game 5, he wants to play, but he might be hampered by his injury. What are our chances of taking the game if Tony doesn't play?

[timvp]

Are you serious?

:pctoss

[SuperManu!!!]

I belive...thats enough

[Kori Ellis]

I just heard a tape of Tony talking at shootaround today -- he didn't say he wasn't going to play.

Interesting.

[sprrs]

yea :depressed

He says he's 50-50 gametime decision. I think he's gonna play cause it's the playoffs, but that thigh is seriously gonna take away what his game brings.

[Manu20]

:pctoss





Time to step up Nick!

[Cant_Be_Faded]

Injury???? WTF happened to him

[SAGambler]

If T don't play, then it's time for VanX to earn his bucks. The problem I see with that though, is the D on Bibby may suffer some.

[sprrs]

Injury???? WTF happened to him

He got hit in the thigh apparently in game 5.

[RON ARTEST]

whether he plays tonight or not you guy are so damn deep for one game i think you guys will be alright.

[Kori Ellis]

Pop said Tony was probable. Tony said Game Time Decision but he said "it's the playoffs".

I assume he'll play.

[RON ARTEST]

would they put bowen on him. bibby has a tricep injury also. he injured it in game 3 or 4.

[Kori Ellis]

He got hit in the thigh apparently in game 5.

Yeah he got hurt in the 1st quarter of the game 5. He was limping a lot by the 4th quarter and could barely walk the next day.

[Cant_Be_Faded]

For some reason I don't like the idea of NVE playing hardcore minutes against the Kings.

He takes pullup threes with 20 left on the clock against teams that slow it down, if he does that shit against the Kings, might we be fucked and without any offensive rhythm?

[sprrs]

Pop said Tony was probably. Tony said Game Time Decision but he said "it's the playoffs".

I assume he'll play.

Yea I guess the topic title was kinda misleading but now the thing is will he still be effective?

[RON ARTEST]

Pop said Tony was probably. Tony said Game Time Decision but he said "it's the playoffs".

I assume he'll play.
yeah hes gonna play. by this time everyone is injured in some way. no way hes gonna miss an important game like this.

[mavsfan1000]

Bibby has a shooting injury. Everything he puts up is a brick. It is day-to-day. :lol

[MaNuMaNiAc]

that's it, we fucked

[1Parker1]

CIA Pop. Tony will play, it's the playoffs. :)

[RON ARTEST]

Bibby has a shooting injury. Everything he puts up is a brick. It is day-to-day. :lol
your actually right. he injured his tricep which is messing up his shooting. hes better then jason terry healthy or not.

[J.T.]

Bibby has a shooting injury. Everything he puts up is a brick. It is day-to-day. :lol

:lmao

[RON ARTEST]

that's it, we fucked

after tonight game your gonna have to have an emoticon for crying. 3-3 bitches!!!!!

[PM5K]

I'm sorry but you don't miss a playoff game for a soft tissue injury, something needs to be broken or torn or hanging off or missing....

[E20]

I'm putting 75 big ones that Tony ain't playing.

[ALVAREZ6]

:wtf


???

[sprrs]

Either way if Tony's struggling and Van Exel doesn't put up one hell of a game we'll see Barry log some minutes at the point.

[ABDENOUR POWER]

Tony's fine. He'll play.

[J.T.]

after tonight game your gonna have to have an emoticon for crying. 3-3 bitches!!!!!

After tonight's game I'm gonna need a bitchslap emoticon for you, but since we don't have one, this will have to do:

TP played with the flu and dropped 27 on Seattle down the stretch. I bet that did wonders for his concentration during the game. He will play thru the injury and rise to the occasion like any great player would.

[The Rock]

Hey Ron Artest... Know What I Think About What You Think? bet ya cant guess!

[boutons_]

A bad bruise can weaken the muscle where it can quit on you at the worst time, maybe causing a knee injury.

Remember last playoffs, Shaq had a thigh bruise so bad that they were worried it going to calcify.

[zeleni]

:pctoss





Time to step up Nick!

http://www.pointedmagazine.com/nuggets%20nick%20van%20exel%20tells%20fans%20about %20his%20shot.jpg

We have game a double dragon...

http://www.geocities.com/nomi_b/beno.jpg

[boutons_]

Tony limped through Game5 with this bruise, before his leg cooled off.
Next day it must have been really sore.

[RON ARTEST]

Hey Ron Artest... Know What I Think About What You Think? bet ya cant guess!
you know what i think rock? i think your a terrible actor and now your nothing but a washed up wrestler.

[mavsfan1000]

I hope he plays. The mavs probably don't want any more days off and so I hope the spurs finish it up tonight.

[RON ARTEST]

We have game a double dragon...

:lol what the hell are they gonna do? van exel is old and washed up. beno is good but he cant give you more then what tony does.

[RON ARTEST]

I hope he plays. The mavs probably don't want any more days off and so I hope the spurs finish it up tonight.
well your gonna be sad after tonight.

[J.T.]

We need a vBookie on how many times RON ARTEST will guarantee a Kings win before the game starts. Kori?

[The Rock]

Know What I Think About Losing All My Vbookie?

[SAGambler]

Well, I don't either really. But I still have some reservations about Beno also. I guess the other option would be to run Barry at point with VanX resting him.

Or maybe put Manu running the point and put Barry in Manu's place.

At least Pop does have several options. The beauty of having a deep bench.

I think Tony will give it a try though....This is the playoffs.

[JamStone]

Let Manu log more minutes at point guard with Finley and Bowen on the wings.

[zeleni]

:lol what the hell are they gonna do? van exel is old and washed up. beno is good but he cant give you more then what tony does.

That means Beno and VanX need to pick up around 28 points, 9 rebounds and 8 assists! No sweat! Especialy with hot Manu and healthy Tim by their side.

Both are good 3pt shooters none the less. Game 6 will be the last game of the series with or without Tony. I invested a lot o v-effort to this game, its almost 3 AM and... really, I don't like to wait for a game.

[bonesinaz]

Parker will play. Barry can always play the point as well.

[Fabbs]

Brent Barry point guard.

[beirmeistr]

The Spurs have an abundance of talent who can play the point. If Tony's minutes are limited by his injury, Nick, Beno, Brent, and Manu are all available for duty. I personally like the style of Spurs play when Barry, Manu, Finley, Horry are on the floor, along with Duncan or another big.

van exel is going to have to be straight up TOLD not to pull that shit if he gets heavy minutes. I bet Beno will play just as much as van X tonight

[J.T.]

Parker participated in workouts today according to ESPN. IRON MAN

[Texas_Ranger]

I hope he will play, if not we are in deep shit :pctoss :bang

[IceColdBrewski]

Sit him. Beno and Van Exel can handle it.

[ducks]

did you read pop's comments on tp about his play in game 5

[RON ARTEST]

Let Manu log more minutes at point guard with Finley and Bowen on the wings.
bad idea. the last time manu played point he turned the ball over and martin made a miracle shot. :lol

[Frenchise player]

Sit him. Beno and Van Exel can handle it.
Yeah sure; it would have been better if he had sit :blah
Welcome back hater.

[Kori Ellis]

I'd hate to see what kind of game tonight he would have had if he was healthy.

*I know dumbass Spurs fans will still find a way to make a Parker bashing thread

[2centsworth]

*I know dumbass Spurs fans will still find a way to make a Parker bashing thread

no one is that dumb i hope

[1Parker1]

:lol Check the game Blog. People were calling him a ball hog when he was killing it in the 3rd quarter.
