    Thomas isn't by any means a promise to contribute, He could easily be another Hariston/Mensah-Bonsu. , I doubt he becomes anything more than that. But it's worth a try at this point. I can't imagine a better situation for Thomas in terms of getting NBA play time with the Spurs.
    Thomas is a power forward. Not a wing.

    He's actually a tweener at 225 lbs. He can guard 3s, and frankly, if he really does have an NBA three pointer, he can play the backup 3 on offense by just standing in the corner like Kawhi did as a rookie.

    staying out for a sprained hand/finger? Really!?! Players used to just tape that up and go! and we are talking about broken and or dislocated stuff. Such a pussified sport it is now lol

    I know i'll get hate for saying this but it's true. anyone who has followed the sport for at least 20 years cant deny it.

    This injury doesn't bother me. Much more concerned about Tiago. Green has been slumping all year and his D has also been a little hit or miss.

    The only reason it bothers me if it is to his shooting hand. Too lazy to go back at the tape to see tbh.

    Hand injuries can take a while for shooters to get over completely. Will he be able to shoot a ball? Probably. Will he be able to shoot 40% from 3? We'll see.

    , it took Manu damn near a season and a half to find his shooting stroke again after breaking his hand.

    UNLESS he goes Rookie Of The Year style on the league, and suddenly his broken hand allows him to shoot 99% from the arc.

    Of course, Ray Allen will surely come down on Danny's hand in the big championship game, and Green will be forced to win the game using his determination and wit. Will he be able to do it? Only time will tell, tbh...

    The defense will suffer without Green especially against PGs.

    The offense should be fine without him though. The Spurs have enough 3 point shooters.

    Hate this news.

    Well, it sucks but in the big picture, it isn't a that big deal. Spurs will make the playoffs and Green will be back well before it.

    It's the opportunity for De Colo and Joseph to show what they can do. Now, it's up to them to grab that opportunity.

    Not a big issue as long as Beli/Manu/Kawhi remain healthy.

    Good chance to De Colo and Joseph to show more than what they've shown so far !

    Sucks. Defense will take a hit but in the grand scheme of things it isn't a big deal.

    As others have said/implied, I'm more worried about the impact on our defense as opposed to us missing his shooting.

    Oh well, 4 weeks isn't too bad. Though I'm starting to get a bit worried...Splitter/Manu/Green all injured within, what, a week and a half? Hopefully we're getting the injuries out of the way early on. Rather it be now than playoff time I guess.
