Tony Parker to undergo an MRI tomorrow on calf. Says three days off couldn't have come at a better time @NBA. @NBATV@NBAonTNT
I wonder if this was re-injured yesterday and part of what slowed him down in the 4th?
If it was really serious gotta think it would've been done today no?
uh, what?
... Thought he didn't need one...
:/
Hopefully nothing big.
Yeah, which makes me think its not serious.Quote:

Tony said he'll have precautionary MRI on calf. No indication of anything serious.
Jeff McDonald @JMcDonald_SAEN
Tony Parker going for another MRI on his left calf tomorrow. No new injury. Just tracking the progress of his recovery.
:( :bang
Hoping for nothing serious, at this point TP is equally important as TD or KL.

Whew..
Phew
Why do they even announce it, just to scare us???? lol
They do it to spread FUD against Memphis and get their hopes up that TP might not be 100%.
I hope.
Sounds like they'll do it just to see how to actually go forward with treatment seems to me.
Three days off + treatment, should do wonders for em.
LMAO no shit right? Bastards!Quote:

Serves her right for wearing Crocs. Should have taken her up further since she was wearing the Crocs with the fur on the inside.Quote:

Holy molly
There is always soemthing to worry about.
:pctoss F this sport
Not sure I buy the "track the progress" line but whatever the case may be, let's hope he's as close to 100% as possible come Game 3.
The fourth quarter was a harsh reminder of what these Spurs look like against the Grizzlies when TP is hobbled...
I just viewed the video when he said that, there's no question he's playing, it really just sounds precautionary.
EN scraping for news. Next we'll hear when he took the dump.Quote:

Watch Pop sit him two games with a negative report just to make for an interesting series.....
trying to think why they would announce it the world
maybe hoping they would not change their game plan against guarding tp thinking he is injured
At this point no wild horses is going to get TP off the court, if he had to play on one leg. Well except for Pop. He'd sit "the best PF ever" with 4 mins left, he'd do the same to TP. But I think it's a precautionary thing than anything else. The 4 days off should do wonders on TP's legs.
Parker scheduled for precautionary MRI on calf

Tony Parker said his bruised left calf is improving, but he'll have a precautionary MRI on Thursday "just to make sure." (USA Today)
Tony Parker’s three-day layoff between Games 2 and 3 of the Western Conference finals will include a precautionary MRI on Thursday to track the progress of his bruised left calf.
Parker was initially injured 12 days ago in Game 3 of the conference semifinal series against Golden State, resulting in what he described as “by far” the biggest bruise he’s ever had.
“The calf is doing better,” he said. “Doing the MRI…just to make sure. It definitely limited me in the limit me in the last (three) games against Golden State and those two games (against Memphis).
“But slowly and surely I’m turning the corner. Those three days arrive at a perfect time for me, so I’m definitely going to use them wisely. I’ll be ready to go on Saturday.”
Parker is averaging 18 points in five games since the injury, alternating two strong shooting performances (9 for 16 and 9 for 14) around three poor ones (6 for 17, 3 for 16, 6 for 20).
He offset his errant stroke during Tuesday’s overtime victory in Game 2 with a career-playoff best 18 assists. Fatigue was a factor, however, as he wore down near the end of his team-high 42 minutes. He is averaging 36.3 minutes per game in the postseason, 3.4 more than the regular season.
“I was definitely tired,” Parker said. “I think all the minutes against Golden State and the first two games (against Memphis) was wearing down on me. I have to play defense on (Mike) Conley, chasing on pick and rolls, and then be the generator on offense for everybody. I was a little bit tired, but it happens to everybody.”
Game 3 is Saturday in Memphis. The Spurs lead the series 2-0.

After having listened to his practice interview, it sounds like there is nothing to worry about and that Parker's calf is truly getting better.
Scoreboard, bitch.Quote:
