AKA rest
@spurs
INJURY REPORT – Manu Ginobili (adductor tightness) & Kawhi Leonard (respiratory infection) are questionable for tomorrow’s Spurs-76ers game.
AKA rest
Looks like the spurs are confident they can win without those two tomorrow.
Predictable. I realize these are day to day things, but these two can never stay healthy for long and this is why the lack of a quality fourth wing (Butler is being overrated because he's surprisingly athletic not just for his age, but for a player never considered to be athletic) needs to be addressed at some point.
Kawhi "my boo boo" Leonard.
It would be dicey without the two of them, since our wing rotation is thin if both are out, and realistically speaking they are our two best wing players, but this is a tanking team, so we should be fine.
I don't think we should coast in this one though, without them to rescue a slumbering team.
Fortunately it doesn't look like anything serious...
Kawhi will want to play unless his infection is contagious to others.
Manu is likely to be held out. Seriously no need to bring him against the Sixers, let Kyle get some minutes, and call up Simms.
Yeah, we'll be in real trouble without these 2 against the powerhouse sixers.
Well, looks like a "DNP-Rest" in other words..Manu, to give him an early season breather and Kawhi precautionary after that hard fall..i think we can beat the 76ers without both..
If Kawhi is out, LMA will look to score 40 on Brett's Sixers.
Has Simmons been recalled due to this? I don't see him in the Toros game...
I am watching it online on and off, and yea he's not there. I suspect they held him out of this game pending a call up. No need to play in this game and risk injury when they might need him tomorrow, but just a guess. Don't they also play tomorrow (Austin Spurs) but that game is in OKC? Its possible right after this game, these guys are taking off for another game tomorrow.
Hopefully Leonard is sick and it's not because of the fall.
Was concerned until I saw that the 76ers start three human men, apparently NBA players, named Jakarr Sampson, TJ McConnell, and Jerami Grant at the wings.
Respiratory infection? The . Wether serious or not Kawhi gets the freakiest injuries/illnesses, tbh.
A lower respiratory infection can be a real ...kawhi will play if it is an important game...its the sixers though...they probably only have 4 nba caliber players in their team.
Spurs could start Bonner and Simmons and still win this by 15+.
It's not a big deal. Pop will play Green and Mills more to compensate for most of the lost minutes. We're talking about Anderson, Butler and Simmons combining for like 45 minutes in the event there's no garbage time. It would make sense to me for Butler to start (defense isn't an issue against Philly's perimeter guys), and Anderson and Simmons will summer league the second unit. The starters should have great spacing for once. I really don't think it's very possible to upgrade over what Butler has currently given the club this season.
Pop doing Brett a solid and allowing him a small chance at their first win. LMA will probably light Okafor up like a Christmas tree.
Manu probably rest and im guessing kawhi will be gametime decision.
Brett Brown..i guess last season should be enough to tell us about the implication of throwing away one single game to scrub teams.
One can only hope Leonard's respiratory infection doesn't spread to his eye.
Yeah, good idea to give Manu an early season breather coming on the heals of two days off. Don't want to tire him out or anything.
