Per official Spurs twitter account.
I didn't believe for a second he wouldn't play. Will he be reasonably healthy? That's what we'll have to wait and see..........
Thanks mate.
I'm not surprised. However, it tells us almost nothing about how healthy Parker is, only that he's at least 25%. We'll have to see how he looks in the 2nd quarter and beyond.
There it is.
If he is subpar, will Popazit demonstrate faith in bench?
TeamBall is gonna win the le. Don't give us this defeatist bull that we cannot win without Parker.
If he's able to move somewhat quickly/hit a jumper, that's all Spurs need from him. Make the D concerned early on then dish it to an open shooter afterwards.
Not as important as knowing how Lebron is going to play tonight. He's promising a top performer-type of game. Kawhi better be ready because James is going to be looking to score and get to the line.
Would he have announced so early during the day that he's playing if he was struggling with the injury? They would have made it a game-time decision. The fact he said from now he's playing is a positive I think, obviously he's not 100% but I think he will be 'Ok'. Wouldn't be surprised if he pulled off a huge game even, he's here and he knows it's one of his last chances, and he promised Duncan another NBA Finals. He's not stopping now.
A win tonight and this series may be over. Go Spurs Go!
We will see some vintage TP, Tim, and Manu tonight. This is when their experience will help them withstand the onslaught the Heat will likely bring. Spurs will be hard to beat tonight.![]()
I'm mostly concerned about TP's ability to run a mile or 2 running and cutting around screens on defense as well as on offense. He thrives off of running, running and more running. Chalmers & Cole will be testing him big time...not to mention screeners like Haslem and Birdman kneeing him.
Not too worried about The Queen tonight tbh. If our defense runs with the same intensity as game 3, we should be alright.
Didn't have any worries that he wouldn't play, just hope he can give it 100% without being hampered. Here's to winning Game 4!

I'm sure he'll play; the question is how effective he'd be.
Parker WILL dominate. You got to have some faith in our guys !
Good news. Even if not 100% he's gonna give everything he's got.
Some people are worried sick and rightfully so. But I suspect Parker is trolling the Miami Heat and the media, I'm not so sure is as hurt or concerned as he is letting on. An 80-85 percent Parker is enough to win the game tonight and the series.
Just hope tony still has the ability to penetrate and break down the defense...
Best gif ever.
I don't believe Parker will play in the 2nd half.
Here's hoping he doesn't injure it any further and is somewhat effective tonight.
