Because of Parker’s injury, the team will start a small lineup of George Hill, Roger Mason, Keith Bogans, Richard Jefferson and Tim Duncan.![]()
Hey Pop, give some minutes to Ian......please
My god, Popvich ing sucks. I'm not going to bother watching this one. I have better things to do with my time than to see the Spurs get crushed using bull smallball.
And people still defend Pop, it's him that's making these decisions on the players.
It should be.
Hill
Mason
Jefferson
Mcdyess
Duncan
Small ball?
This is normal basketball . . .![]()
info from McD on the Spurs Courtside page at the EN
Parker will sit, have MRI
Tony Parker will miss today's game at Detroit, coach Gregg Popovich said. Parker, who is battling a strained left hip flexor, will have an MRI on Monday in San Antonio to determine the extent of the injury.
Parker originally suffered his latest injury Feb. 8 against the Lakers, and it has not responded well to treatment. A firmer timetable for Parker's return will be determined after the MRI.
"I thought he was going to be OK after the Indiana game," Popovich said, referring to Wednesday's victory over the Pacers in which Parker had 28 points. "He scored a thousand points that game. Then he came up in the Philly game, he was hurting. So I told him, 'We're going to sit you.' "
In Parker's absence, George Hill will slide to point guard, creating a domino effect in the starting lineup. The Spurs will open small, starting Roger Mason at shooting guard, Keith Bogans at small forward and Richard Jefferson at power forward.
It will be Popovich's 18th unique starting lineup this season.
"Because I'm tricky and smart," Popovich said with a laugh. "This will certainly work, I'm sure."
In related news, the Spurs have recalled Malik Hairston from Austin to replace Parker on the active roster.
Only good thing is Hairston has been recalled from Toro's
Pop's gone absolutely ing bat insane.
Has Malik been called up (it'd be nice to see him play back home)?
Even I didn't think he was that crazy. I'm half expecting him to come out on the court with his shirt on inside-out.
Thanks, that's what I figured.
Hill had his homecoming and now it's Malik's turn -- hopefully it proves to be more than that and part of the internal tweaks Tim alluded to after the trade deadline.
RJ at PF . . . I haven't seen the Pistons too much this year, but RJ should be able to handle Jerebko, right?
48 minutes of is rapidly taking on a whole new meaning for Spurs fans.
This is just a kick to the marbles on what has become one of the most frustrating seasons in a while.
Pop is insane. I usually just laugh at his rotations and lineups he throws out now.
It's like we're tanking, except in the upside down world of the Spurs right now, Pop seems to think this lineup is our best chance to win. I'm curious about these tweaks and new playcalling...sounds like corporate speak to assuage Holt.
I don't think we could play worse now. And if Pop really wanted to tank, he'd play the young guys and we'd probably do better. Upside down.
Jefferson better hope his shot is falling because Jerebko will absolutely out work RJ.
PG-Hill
SG-Hairston
SF-Jefferson
PF-Blair
C-Mahinmi
That would be my psycho starting lineup
