Wow third game already.
I'm getting a little nervous about Duncan now
. Ireally want to know if Tim is OK now.
Gives him 4 more days for the Bobcats.. Hopefully he plays that one..
Rest time for Timmy,easy schedule,now's the time to see exactly who can step up and put points on the board and get the rotation at least sorta settled
I'm more worried about Pop. I hope he's not gonna pass away.
Glass half full: Tim Duncan is taking the equivalent to his All-Star break rest now.
Glass half empty: Maybe the renascence is over.![]()
Pop is the one making me nervous, maybe he has some serious health issues and is hiding it(you know he isn't young anymore...)
Probably just being careful with Tim. The Spurs don't necessarily need him against the now-lowly Suns, and since the Spurs have already won 2 without Tim, it wouldn't be the end of the world if they lost one anyways. No need to rush him back.
If you asked Pop if he was okay with the Spurs going 2-1 to rest Timmy for a week, pretty sure he would take it in a heartbeat.
After Matt's "flu" comments on ESPN, I hardly think it can be very bad
I asked andrew mcneill from 48 minutes of about if timmy's knee was a real concern and he said this:
Andrew A. McNeill@drew_48moh
Kuestmaster Nah, but they've got three days off after today, so that had something to do with holding him out tonight.
We'll see if it's a concern or not, but I understand the thought process in Tim sitting out..Spurs should win this game without Duncan, it's a good idea to keep him out..
Phoenix is the worst team in the West, Spurs are at home, Duncan's absence should not be a factor..
This is exactly what I was thinking. He doesn't need to play in this game. More rest would be beneficial.
Im not worried.. rest Timmy now... this is pop resting Tim cause hes pissed he has to play the All star Game
Pop really doesn't want to coach the ASG, and he told Tony to show how much he wants Pop to be there. The Spurs are much more likely to have a shot at a le if Parker learns to step up and be elite when teams are focusing on him.
pop will probably outlive 90% of d fatties in this forum. Step off d ledge.
Since the Spurs are doing fine without the Big Renascencadental, I'm thinking that glass is about 3/4 full.
JMcDonald_SAEN Bud on Pop's health: "He's better, but still not great. He still wants to keep the team protected and safe."
JMcDonald_SAEN Bud on Duncan's knee: "It's still not something that's serious."
JMcDonald_SAEN Bud said the fact Spurs have 3 days off after tonight made decision to sit Tim Duncan easier.
JMcDonald_SAEN Budenholzer: "You put all this rest together, hopefully it's a good thing for him."
JMcDonald_SAEN Budenholzer said he made only one request of Pop in their latest phone chat: "Can I get at least one game with Tim Duncan?"
Is there an echo in here?
