It's likely because there is a trade in the works with him. Spurs shouldn't have been sold at all by what they saw from him in the first two preseason games.
Adios Manu, thanks for the memories (2005 was awesome).
Kind of interesting note from him on his facebook.
Manu GinobiliI won't be at the game tmrw. Just wanted to let u know. Had to stay in SA working out /// No voy a Miami gente, algunos ya me preguntaron. Me quedo en SA entrenando.

Thats jumping forward a bit I think Bruno
Damn it. I just bought his jersey last night at the game. Should I exchange it for a Duncan one?
I agree, we all knew that the Spurs would never really pay the luxury tax. Manu, Bonner, and Finley will all be gone by the end of the week for second round picks and trade exceptions.
Watch out for that Bruno character. He's got a rapist wit.
Pop is just monitoring minutes. Manu is still one of the older guys on the team, and is obviously coming off of that injury, so he's due for a little R&R. I think the preseason record can handle it.
Hmm, wouldn't he still have travled with the team if that was the case? I don't know but it seems pretty fishy to me.
When Barry was almost traded to Hornets in 06, they traveled without him.
The trade should be damn close.
And it sounds damn logical. Al the dots connect. For example, Pop tried to raise Manu trade value by saying he was awesome in practices while games showed us that he was nowhere near 100%.
sad day.
good luck with your new team, Manu.
I hope TD is also out tomorrow so Mahinmi can play a lot of minutes.
I'd like to see Ian and TP together
you guys are too easy. The spurs are not going to trade manu because, no manu, no championship!!
This is easy, manu has play the first 2 preseason games, is time to give him a rest. PArker and duncan rest one game, so is manu's time to rest. So if you are not going to play why travel, when you can stay in SA and get some work done.
thank you
Rapier wit?
Straight salary dump; probably a trade to the Lakers for two future 2nds, and Josh Powell.
Well hes not resting, hes in SA working out. To me that is better than him sitting on the bench and just watching.
I think he did that on purpose.
And y'all are not funny!
LMAO @ people thinking this is fishy/bad
I think Manu stayed to get on the gym to stay get back in shape. All that traveling and low minutes on that game wouldn't have helped.
We don't need him to play in this game, anyway. Wade, O'Neal and others aren't going to play either due to injuries. http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/news/story?id=4548655
This should be a rout.
Before Manu is traded Bruno will become a libertarian.
@ Bruno
I think she had a tad too much Merlot.
Bruno is usually a smart poster . . .
Was that a slip of the tongue or is Bruno female??
