Good news.
French article
It says that Parker will practice with Spurs on Monday to test his ankle. After that practice, he will decide to play or not the next day against Charlotte.Tony Parker reprendra l’entrainement lundi midi avec les Spurs. Après trois semaines d’inactivité, le meneur de jeu de San Antonio testera sa cheville à l'occasion de cet entraînement et prendra sa décision sur une éventuelle participation au match de mardi face à Charlotte.
Good news.
kick ass
Bad news, keep him out until 1 March.
Praise Jesus
Give him 2 more weeks than is needed.
I agree. We are doing fine without him for now. I say rest him all the way up to playoff time, if that's what it will take for him to finish strong.
I am for more rest. I think it benefits the team in that other players get minutes and valuable experience. It feels like in past years there have been injuries which allowed another player to get better due to playing time.
Parker hasn't been playing? Didn't notice ... keep him off it for a few more games or two weeks.
Yeah, let's keep on playing Tim and Manu 40mpg!
How do you guys know he hasn't already been out two weeks longer than necessary? Why do you assume he's being rushed back at the earliest possible time?
Good point. If he is 100% healthy, let him play. If not, I wouldnt mind sitting him for a few more days/games. In the end, I trust Pop. Of course, he has made mistakes in the past. However, he tends to be cautious with injured players.
99% thread.
There's no point to keeping Parker out 2 weeks longer than necessary, he needs to go when his ankle is healed to the best level that it's going to be. When he comes back he's going to be very sluggish and will take quite a few games to play into game shape.
Sit him out till the 23rd vs the Hornets.
Time for payback vs those es.
I think the Spurs can handle the Bobcats and the Timberwolves ok without Parker.
I guess posters here are doctors and know in what state Parker's ankle is.
I'm all for Spurs staff and Parker being extra careful with his ankle but if they think that Parker is back at 100% and could play, I don't know how I could say "rest him 2 more weeks".
Im not saying I am.I guess posters here are doctors and know in what state Parker's ankle is.

Whats it hurt to keep him out longer though?
you guys are lame... All the ones saying wait until we need him, why play him against the bobcats...
If he is healthy then play him. Plus how do you expect him to get back into his groove, find his touch. Do you guys think we should seat tim and manu for the first 25 games of the season to make it short so they can be rested for playoff too????
It is quite clear that pop os forced to play manu and tim more than he wants too. This increases big time injury risk. So just give us a break.
As soon as parker is healthy slowly insert him back in the line-up. If he feels well don't even take your time.
Having Parker will help Spurs to win games and have HCA.
Parker should be better against Hornets if it's his 3rd game post injury than his first one.
I wouldn't play him until at least Feb 23 at home vs New Orleans or even until Feb 28 at home vs Dallas.
We need to win those games
Yay!!! Can not wait!
Some payback against the Hornets would be great. Pull rank on them whippersnappers.
Good for you guys....get him back healthy and go on a nice run.
same type of blowout on their home would make me feel better for what is about to come... but a loss wouldn't be an upset at this stage of the year
Hornets got y after they beat us. If this was a typical regular season I wouldn't care, but since they're the top seed, I hope we blow them out.
