Just release the Manu for a little help at the point, should be ok.

Parker's in extremely good condition. I think he'll be good to go.
physical defense nate robinson and marco belinelli? seriously? Hinrich won't even be in the game, he's going to have it his way...
I'm with timvp on this. I'm okay with whatever Pop decides to do.
No Hinrich or Noah? This game is going to be a cinch for us.
Not sure if serious..
Kirk Hinrich didn't practice Sunday and Bulls coach Tom Thibodeau ruled the guard out of Monday's matchup against the Spurs at the United Center.
Joakim Noah and Marco Belinelli did some individual work but didn't practice to rest their nagging injuries of plantar fasciitis and a sore right ankle, respectively. Thibodeau said both players are game-time decisions.

What just about everyone is overlooking about TP is his leadership during this time with Tim and Manu out. TP has taken up coaching on the floor. When there is a timeout, he is talking to someone coming off the court or on the sideline as to what they should have done or what he wants them to do in that situation. He is using his knowledge of the system to communicate to the other players. He has taken the role of "Little General". Or at least, he is doing the job somewhat like AJ did. As for him just coming into his being a true PG, he has been among the best since 2005. If you look back, no one has played better than TP as a true point guard in that time. I like CP3 but he is slowing down because of injury. DRose gets a lot of press, but he aint done S--- this season but sit and draw his pay. If you look Rondo is a stat hog. How important is he to Boston TEAM? 6-0 without him. Dwill is washed up. TP cleaned his plow last night. S Curry will someday be a top PG when he figures out that the ankle has to be rested while it heals. Not many others who come close to TP and what he does.
I don't see why Noah and Belinelli wouldn't play, they both played last Thursday and Friday...
CP3 is the only point guard that has show value similar to TP. While Parker is holding the team together with the other stars out, the clippers struggle to do anything in the span Paul was out, and now they're not even in contention for the top seed.
Not sure where this insanity on sitting players came from.
My guess is that Pop won't force the issue for that game. If Spurs are down by double digits are in the third quarter, he will gave up and start playing the bench. He did something similar in December against OKC.
Ya, the fact that he kept him on the floor during the blowout was a good indication to me, tbh..
