Ahhh...gotcha.
Well, here's hopin...[fingers crossed]
Well it wasnt really that I had more hope in Boston than Phoenix. It's that I had already seen Phoenix last season already ya know? And I thought it would be pretty cool to see Rondo, Pierce, Allen, and KG go up against our Big 3....
Ahhh...gotcha.
Well, here's hopin...[fingers crossed]
+1. I bought these damn tickets in January when we were rollin'. I never thought this game would have so much more riding on it now with the Spurs struggling so much...
I would like to rest Manu either against Boston or Houston ... he needs energy and George Hill has the chance to continue his aggressive play with more minutes
TD, the goodsPERIOD
Gotta be against Houston... we NEED the Boston game more than anything else.
I understand this, but one more day of rest could be better for Manu ... lets see what happens

by Tim Griffin
...Getting his team healthy has caused Popovich to slightly tweak his typical workout routine in preparation for Thursday’s critical game against Boston.
Typically with two days before a game, Popovich has liked to work his team out on the first day and then given them rest on the following day to get ready for the game.
But he has departed from that before Thursday’s game. The Spurs rested Tuesday and will now work on Wednesday.
Makes sense... they just played a back to back.
Just more goofy machinations by Pop.
Giuseppe needs to get laid....
I get the feeling everyone will be back for Boston, the lack of "official" information otherwise, the guys smiling on the bench last night, Popovich's elluding to Duncan out 4-5 games at first, and no one on crutches. That's just the feeling I got last night, after the somewhat absence of panic.
The part I like is that we're struggling with the same team, they're not. Kendrick Perkins isn't gonna be there when they need him and Carlos Arroyo, Kristic, Sasha, and Troy Murphy are a bunch of white guys who can't play defense.
The only problem with Perkins is he is at OKC now.![]()
A Boston victory Thursday nite would suffice.
all i know is they better not let bonner know how close we are to losing our seed he may not even make it on the court, anyway this is a great time for the big three to be leaders and lead the young bucks into the playoffs!!! im stil using last years slogan "come together"!!! lame hahaha
Put this is the Duncan thread, thought it should go here too.

..."They are getting there,” Popovich said. “We’ll just see how everybody looks tomorrow.”
...Duncan has been out for the most time since his injury early in the March 21 victory over Golden State. He has missed all of the games of his team’s recent four-game losing streak.
“He’s close,” Popovich said. “We just have to make a decision on it.”
...Parker said he could have played Monday night in an emergency situation.
“I always trust Pop and his judgment. He’s done that in the past,” Parker said. “I’m definitely going to feel fresh.”
So your telling me there's a chance.....
wow you guys...i remember a point and time during this season where we were decimating teams whether they were playoff teams or not...and here we are hoping to win while crossing our fingers??? oh ye of little faith...always believe...
i am not up to par with tony's, manu's and Tims injury update but it's my solid hunch that if at least manu plays, all will be well with the spurs. if tony AND manu play, the celts are toast.
i just keep getting this feeling that boston is on the ropes ever since they traded KP and they just haven't been the same. serious chemical inbalance going on there in beantown.
if manu AND tony don't play, along with tim of course, i just don't think the spurs have a chance but hey....being that i really can't stand boston,
here's to ya S.A....hope you guys thrash them...
If anyone is likely to not go, it will be Manu. He did practice!
"possibilities?"
Sounds to me like we'll be at full strength tomorrow.
The very BEST part of this season so far, is having the front runnin' laker s and their front-runnin' fans so worried because their team is not out in front with the home court and the refs all secured for the playoffs.
Having Lakers fans ROOTING FOR A CELTICS WIN...is a great omen for this season's playoffs and how the front runnin' babied franchise might actually have to work for a chance at a le...this is priceless.
Sorry, Culb....
The Spurs will TOY with you and let you get really CLOSE...only to smash the gas pedal and make you earn it on the ROAD. Have fun getting the beat out of you versus Memphis (6 to 7 games)...and if you survive...6 or 7 more games against Dallas...
Tee Hee Mother er...
I smell skunk.
The Lakers had a nice home crowd last game at San Antonio...I'm sure they'd welcome you guys having "HCA."
