As far as coming back "too soon", the only real chance of a setback would be that a recently-sprained ankle tends to be less stable, so you can twist it much easier. The time for that to go away would likely mean the whole season, so they'll just have to take their chances.
Was hoping he'd be back for tomorrow night's game. IMO the Spurs are prolly gonna lose it, putting them into a tie with OKC. That game early next month is looking like it will decide the seeding order.
I don't see them blowing it tomorrow. They'll play with a little fire knowing GS beat them last time, especially with the way Tim has been playing. Let's also hope Kawhi continues his great play. Plus OKC has Denver tonight and are in Memphis tomorrow.
With the Spurs' struggles lately in top of GS' recent play, I don't see a victory unless they ramp up the D and hit their 3s at a high clip. OKC won't lose either tonight or tomorrow. Without a good perimeter player Memphis really no longer matches up well with OKC.

Well the Nuggets are hanging around now. I think with the Spurs recent comments acknowledging their struggles defensively, I think we'll see an improved performance on that end tomorrow. Of course we won't know till then, that's just my opinion. Having 3 days off since their last game giving up a ton of points to the Cavs, I'd be shocked if they're that bad again
Spurs have had an adequate time to rest between games so we'll see a pretty good game from Duncan and I don't see Jarrett Jack having a big game like last time.
You must not watch Spurs games.
There is such a thing as wishful thinking

Spurs probably win vs UTA with the horrible way they've been playing. HOU is not so clear-cut, but if they hold off till DEN that's an extra 4 days rest.
Parker coming back against Houston makes the most sense to me. The Spurs won't need him against Utah but they will against the Rockets.
If there is any shred of doubt I'd prob just hold him out until DEN.
Spurs can beat Utah with or without Tony, but they should play him. At this point he needs to start building up a rhythm for the harsh stretch coming up, as well as for the playoffs. No reason for him to play 35 mins, but 12-15 should be fine.
They need to start easing him in... if he wants to test the ankle for 5-10 mins against Utah off the bench, he should.
TP wearing some white ankle wraps for safe measure, I like it!
pretty much, Utah should be easy stuff even w/o him unless pop want to troll Lakers
