Tony looked awful second half? LOL gtfo.
He's probably fine. Those little turns hurt like shit for a while, though.Quote:

Tony on his injury: "Uh i dont know right now we'll see I'll do treatment all night long I got kicked pretty bad I don't know if it was Bogut or Jack but right now it's a good one it's pretty big we'll see how I feel tomorrow i have no choice I'm going to play on Sunday it's a quick turnaround and I'll just try to do my best to do the treatment and be ready by 12:30"
That quote is verbatim per his post game.
Might as well make a thread for each player this playoff re: injuries
Tony Parker is a BOSS. He'll be ready to go on Sunday.
And this would be par the course for spurstalk. People (often timvp) make player injury threads after players get injured in game.Quote:

Hopefully it doesn't linger.
Curry's injury will really determine how much a less than 90% Tony hurts the Spurs.
just saw the press conference - he looked quite bad; visibly limping. let's hope he's ready to play on sunday, but if he isn't, no biggie as long as he's 100% for game 5
He'll miss 4 games. 3 this year and 1 at the beginning of next season.
Parker will be fine, Spurs have great trainers and they'll get him ready. It hurts tonight but its just swelling from the kick, nothing's torn or broken.
Good find. I'll update the first post.Quote:

Agree. If it was a kick to the calf, he'll be bruised, worst case. Stupid media trying to feed the fear mongering fair weathered fans. He should be a go for game 4.
He better be fine. Our offense is shit without him.
Bruise hurts like crazy but if given the choice with a basketball game to play in a day and a half I'd take the calf bruise from a kick over a sprained ankle. If Curry doesn't have change of direction cut ability he becomes an easy guard. That also affects the lift on his long range shot. Curry's ankle is huge for game 4 as the other shooter isn't at a level to take a series over as the lone gun.
Damn. Hinrich got kicked in the calf and has missed the last 6 games. Hope TP's isn't as bad.
wow if he's not sure he'd be able to play game 4, it must be pretty serious
Oh just fucking great. This had to happen in a win!!!!!!!!!!!!! Why not just win, we had to have him miss a game too possibly.Quote:

anyone have tp's quote on his availability sunday? cause just right after the game he said in his post game interview he'll be fine and play sunday
A calf contusion would require ICE for the 1st 48. Probably an Anti-Inflam, maybe an early morning PT session to make sure the muscles are aligned and then more ICE. Sunday, we should see. They didn't say what Grade the injury was but let's hope it's just Grade 1. Something like this is a pain tolerance issue. We don't want to see Tony try to overcompensate and wreck something else. We need for him to be as balanced as possible.
I don't remember the play, but wonder if it was dirty. that would be hilarious and typically hypocritical from Mark Jackson. least their PG has an injury, and tbh, I think his much worse.Quote:

Parker has a baseball sized knot in left calf. Still "I can't see myself not playing," he says.

Pop on Tony Parker: "He'll play."
