Way to screw my fantasy team god damnit!!!
Im kidding of course....
Still its horse crap!
It's the right move, but I just wonder how effective this roster will be in April, because these injuries to Manu and Tim are nagging, lingering things. The Spurs will have to pull a rabbit out of a hat big time to have a long playoff run this year, I'm afraid.
Timmy has been really good this year, but if you are not healthy in April and May, it may go for nought. Not good.

Surprisingly, Drew Gooden has only played 5 minutes tonight.
Yeah, 0 points too. Not sure where this is headed.
Oberto is playing very well but I'd like to see more Gooden
Me too, but I think he's done for the night.
one bemol is the TOs 4 in 18 min !
Its ironic that Timmy is having knee problems at this point in the season. he worked so hard in the off-season flipping tires, runningin the sand, etc. to get into the greatest shape he's been in in years but apparently all that wear and tear just contributed to the breakdown he's going thru now. What's a guy to do?
I hope that when he finally can rest this summer, this will be the end of those knee problems, or atleast they'll be kept to a minimum the rest of his career.
At least he will be well rested for Boston... once again
I'm almost in denial about how Timmy has looked the last several games. Watching him with those knee pads and laboring to run. Not a lot of quick movement. Must be harder on him than any of us fans. I'm glad Pop rested him. The warrior needs a rest. I only hope it helps. We need the nuns that always pray for the Spurs to pray for Duncan and Manu now.
From the post game recap.
One night after losing at Oklahoma City to one lottery-bound team, the Spurs rested Duncan against another. Duncan wanted to play, but coach Gregg Popovich said he wanted Duncan healthy for the playoffs more.Duncan sat for precautionary reasons. But skipping another game or two down the road during back-to-backs to lessen the wear on his occasionally troubled knees may not be far-fetched.
Popovich didn't say he would bench Duncan again during the three remaining back-to-backs, but acknowledged doing so helps keeps his star healthy. Duncan missed three games at the end of February with a right quad injury.
Popovich said Duncan's occasional knee trouble is something he's had to deal with "more than people would know.'' Duncan's official diagnosis last month was right quad tendonosis.
"He doesn't love (sitting out), but it's important for him to be fresh and healthy at the end of the season,'' Popovich said.
Duncan, 32, hasn't quite been himself since returning from the injury. His 20.7 scoring average led the Spurs before his sore knee first forced him out Feb. 24 against Dallas, and he's averaged 15.1 points since coming back March 1.
No TD = No ring.
Right now TD is at 75% or less.No way.
TP is playing great but he's not good enough to lead this team to the championship.TD is the core of the team.Manu? He was a lot of time out this year.He will need time.
Sit Timmy for half of back to backs the rest of the way. Absolutely no reason not to.
