    For the Spurs, this is a team that needs Manu Ginobili healthy and back on the floor. Spurs coach Gregg Popovich told me before the game that Thursday was the first day of Ginobili taking shots on the move during practice. However, he said Ginobili developed some soreness that they didn't expect, so that might delay his re-entry into the game rotation. - Dr. Jack Ramsay

    and this is all just some secret plan to get Manu extra fit, and to make up for the pre-season workouts that he missed.

    They said the same thing during the game. As long as he's good to go during the playoffs (ideally right before the playoffs to shake off any rust) that's all any of us can ask from him and his extremities.

    Damn. I'm starting to wonder if the Spurs' "official" diagnosis was legit or if it was just a CIA cover up of their deadline dealings. The Spurs said 2-to-3 weeks and it's been more than three weeks now and Manu doesn't sound too close.

    With Duncan at about 75% and Manu struggling to return, the Spurs are going to have to get damn lucky with their health in the playoffs.

    If he's been resting his leg for 3 weeks, wouldn't you expect it to be a bit sore after a workout?

    This is a nightmare. I'm already going into denial that this is just some ploy by CIA Pop, and that since we won a string of three games, and with the acquisition of Gooden, Pop's procrastinating on Manu's return even more....

    how can Manu's leg get any worse from doing pretty much nothing for three weeks!!

    Exactly w/c is why I'm not overly concerned about the soreness.. its something I'd expect after a long alayoff.. anyway, let's wait for the next MRI results.

    I'm going to guess they didn't expect unexpected soreness . . . .

    What is unexpected soreness? Any soreness after that long period of relative inactivity should be expected, but if unexpected soreness is Spurs talk for pain, then

    Maybe for muscle, but not bone which i would think is the case here.

    You don't get soreness in your bones, any soreness is a result of muscle fatigue. Pain on the other hand can be a result of a bone problem. It all depends on if they mean just soreness or pain.

    Could this be the reason why the team started slow tonight? Maybe the Spurs players heard about this and were feeling down a little bit?

    I hope Manu is OK and able to come back fully healthy very soon.
