Malik Rose To Get X-Rays

[timvp]

Rose hurt: Malik Rose was expected to have X-rays taken of his left hand after injuring it Tuesday night.

Rose said his hand swelled up in the game after he was hit by Mavericks center Erick Dampier.

If Malik has a broken hand, the Spurs will be in trouble. Horry and Mass as the backup bigs?! Please, don't be broken!

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Well, we always got Marks to fall back on :(

Scola ;)

I thought Malik was really trying to prove that he turned the page yesterday!

Malik gets under my skin a lot but he's one tough SOB. Hopefully he's alright.

[Marcus Bryant]

If the Spurs had a physical starting center this wouldn't be a potentially mortal problem.

if rasho was david this still would be a concern

[ducks]

when will marks be ok to play?

[Marcus Bryant]

Yeah, only because DRob had chronic injury problems, not a lack of a nutsack.

[ducks]

david could have dunked more imo


ps david robinson is my favorite player

He plays for Atlanta.


when will marks be ok to play?

Not for a couple weeks.

I just hope Malik is fine. The backup bigs after Malik aren't going to accomplish anything.

When Will We Know The Results?

[timvp]

Sometime today, probably.

[Brodels]

This is going to be a concern for the entire season. If the Spurs lose Rasho, Duncan, or Rose for any significant period of time, Horry, Massenburg, and Marks are going to have to step up and play good basketball. Another proven and capable big man would help. We'll see how much Horry and Massenburg have left in the tank. That's definitely a concern.

[ShoogarBear]

Well, we always got Marks to fall back on :(

This pretty much underscores how potentially serious this is:

AHF is concerned that Malik may not be able to play.

[Kori Ellis]

I didn't hear the results of the X-rays, but on the news they seemed to think Malik was fine.
