OK..here's the deal. I'm sitting here at a computer at my wife's uncle's house. He is part owner of the company that gives away the motorcycle every year at a Spurs game, "Rockin J." Once every year, he gets to go on the plane on a Spurs road trip. The most recent road trip was the one he went on this year. He and Pop talk a lot, as he has season tickets real close to the Spurs bench, and goes to a lot of Spurs functions. He asked Pop when Manu would be back. Pop told him the Clippers game on Friday. Now, I'm not saying it's guaranteed, but it's not the first time Pop told him when a player would be back from injury. He told him when Tony would be back too. We'll have to see if it comes to reality, but if I was a betting man, I'd bet on Friday against LA.
