Just wondering if there is any new news on Tim...he got hurt a bit in today's game...Will he miss any games?

Thanks for the info! I was a bit worried...
Duncan after the game:
Duncan hurt his left knee in a collision with Corey Maggette as the Clippers' forward fouled out with 1:27 left. Duncan missed both free throws before going to the bench, but doesn't expect to miss any playing time.
"It was incidental. We just went knee to knee and I think I got the worst of it,'' Duncan said. "It went numb for a while, but it feels a lot better now. It's going to swell a little bit, obviously, but hopefully by tomorrow it'll be fine.''

That's a relief!
Yeah when he sat up and starting rubbing it, i pretty much knew it was just a collision and he bruised it a bit, thank god he is alright. The injury bug has hit the Spurs HARD this year, lets hope that does not continue.
manu comes back and duncan gives us a scare. I sure hope they stay healthy now.
I wouldn't be shocked if Pop held Duncan out of tomorrow's game.
1) Duncan's knee will probably be stiff/swollen.
2) Back-to-back against run and gun Warriors.
3) Next game isn't until Thursday.
That would be okay with me timvp.
I don't want any nagging little injury to turn into something more.
Exactly. Better to err on the side of caution, especially the way things have been going lately with the injury bug.
Why doesnt Duncan wear a knee protection like Shaquille? There are lot of knees clashing each other and hard falls to the floor and it may help to avoid a serious injury if TD wore protection on both knees. Is it a macho thing or is it becuase it hinders player's mobility/movement/flexibility? Even though basketball is supposedly non contact there are lot of accidental banging going on and it seems a no=brainer to wear some protection around such a key part of your body!! CAnt imagine hockey or football players not wearing knee protection, and since TD is our franchise player, he really should be protecting those knees that have been banged up over a 9 year career where he has played deep into the post season almost every year
I've been praying that Timmy wakes up and is amazed by how non swollen and non sore his knee is.
Feel better Tim!
Sit him out.
Im dissapointed to hear Ginobili found a way to sneak himself onto the court.
He's suppose to be resting.
Nice of ing ESPN to have a teaser before commercial showing Timmy lying on the ground holding his knee while they suggest that he's seriously injured and then they don't show highlights of the game for almost an hour. Makes me wish for CNNSI sometimes.
I don't think so. I heard he might sit out the next game.
That's horrible!!! Badly done by ESPN. You don't tease about injuries.
Agreed, he should sit this one out, no need to risk anything.
tim is mvp all time
Its been like this for more than a month now. Someone gets hurt, comes back from the injury, and then someone else gets hurt.
That's why this site exists man. ESPN and their lies. This is where it's at
These old players of ours are getting injured more frequently .. we need some more young blood to help them out!
I was sitting about fifteen feet away from the incident. It didn't look bad at all...
But yes, Timmy definitely should wear knee braces.
Thats right. bring in some young new tallent and let them be mentored by three of the best players of all time. I like what they are doing with the D league, watching potentials develop and then bringing them up to see how they perform under pressure. i dont understand why they waived DJ when we need a strong offensive player.
Sit Duncan, sit Manu...I really want both teams full strength on Thursday. , sit everybody through Manu tonight, give the scrubs some burn....
