If so, he can't go out like this. ing Ryan Anderson, piece of still hasn't apologized for what he did.That's just my fear: that PATFO knows something bad about the injury..
Martin will get minutes in the playoffs on the Spurs, I don't think that's even debatable. As for injuries, Miller will see some garbage time minutes but once Manu is back he'll be on the inactive list until some potential match up presents itself a few games into a series.

I think Pop is just going to rest Tony for a while, who's been having a marked decline lately, especially since he played last summer. This also opens the door for Andre to run PG on the bench unit with Mills playing SG until Manu comes back...
I don't really think he'll have a much bigger role in the playoffs than T-Mac had, tbh...
If Manu's injury is worse than let on, we don't have the luxury of finding proper Manu insurance. Hence, the concern.Andre Miller isn't Manu insurance, tbh..he's not even a good playmaker, if we're being honest..
He stat-pads assists by dominating the ball, his assists don't contribute to efficient offense, a homeless man's Rondo..I can't even imagine him playing Spurs basketball, let alone with the bench unit..
I think it is debatable. Especially considering the Spurs haven't even committed to signing him yet.
If they don't then this discussion is meaningless. If they do then you can bump this thread and I'll admit I was wrong if he doesn't get minutes.
Likewise if Miller gets 0 playing time and/or is terrible.
If Manu is out, the Spurs aren't beating the super team at the top, bro
They can win cute regular season games without him, but this team isn't beating the Warriors without their best facilitator..
, or should I say,
He's washed up but, I've always wanted him to be apart of the team.
That's my point. That's why I'm being doom and gloom about this.If Manu is out, the Spurs aren't beating the super team at the top, bro

Well Parker and Mills are almost unplayable against the Warriors. Maybe they're signing Miller to fulfill the Horry role against Steph. Or can he guard Livingston?
I don't think this means anything when it comes to Manu, it could just be more insurance if Pop needs to resort to playing Manu over Parker against the Warriors.
Tell you the truth I rather Ray get a shot....at least he is young.....o well I don't know why everyone complaining so much......Its just basketball.....
Wojtek as well
Miller has always played Spurs style old man ball. He's perfect.
Youth includes inexperience and that loses more playoff games than age.
ugh...why?
Now we have to kick off butler or bonner. The former has been servicable and the latter is just as good as miller and has loyalty.
The Spurs don't really need 6 bigs. Timmy, LMA, West, Diaw, Boban. Even Anderson, Butler and Kawhi can play some in a small ball lineup.
Ray isn't part of the future of this team - he's no spring chicken (older than Kawhi) and is a dime a dozen in terms of production / upside. Come the postseason, I'd rather have Miller than him.
And to those who say the Spurs should cut Butler, you've delirious.
Here is what ESPN reported about Manu's recovery. (Apologies if it has already been posted.)
Spurs coach Gregg Popovich said Manu Ginobili is recovering slowly from testicular surgery. Popovich said that really all Ginobili can do basically is shoot baskets carefully. Popovich joked Ginobili is shooting gingerly hoping the ball doesn't bounce back.
This is the thing. While I disagree with you to an extent about Miller (he can certainly run an offense better than anyone on the bench not named Manu), we're still sure as not winning anything without Manu...so it's hard to be happy with this. Either Manu is good to go and Miller is essentially useless, or Manu isn't good to go and we're edIf Manu is out, the Spurs aren't beating the super team at the top, bro

Good signing. Veteran leadership is always a plus even if he barely plays.
