Tweetie bird will probably be right, Manu will come back against the Clippers. He said Manu's been at Pop to play him, but Pop will stick to Pop's schedule.

    I hope Manu comes back soon because I am just throwing up on Roger Mason! At this point, I don't think it hurts at all to just let Hill handle the ball until Manu gets back, because Mason is not handling the ball any better than Hill.

    Plus, why doesn't Pop let Bowen play earlier. I was at the game and Artest was just hot and owning Finley or whoever was on him. Pop put Bowen on Artest After Artest had 20 points. Artest only scored 4 more points after they put Bowen on him. When is Pop going to get serious about his rotations? Damn...
    I just watched the game and commented about Pop having the wrong rotations again by hardly playing Bowen at all. Bowen was ing awesome out there. He really went for it on defense.

    Not sure how could affect but I'd go with Bruce as starter and sending Mason to bench, going with Manu, Mason, Hill as second unit.
    How about starting Ime instead of Mason? Send Mason to the bench cause he is proving that he can't play against the other teams starters. Mason could benefit by playing against the other teams' bench guys to get back into rhythm on offense.

    We Argentines don't start Churchs for sports heroes figuratively.

    Mason's problem isn't that he's playing against starters..he's already proven he can do that..

    he's struggling because of his role right now..he's a PURE shooter..all he does is shoot..he shouldn't have the responsibility of doing ANYTHING other than shooting..there's no reason he should be handling the ball, driving, or making plays for teammates..he doesn't fit that role..

    Manu CAN play that role, so hopefully Pop puts him there..

    I agree! He may not be near 100% until playoff time and probably deep into it....which may be an advantage for the Spurs.

    it's not really about manu. he adds a whole dynamic to their game yes, but if SA is a true championship contender, they can do it without him. the spurs' true centerpiece is tim duncan, aside from him, i say there's no injury excuses.

    The Spurs need more than just Manu. They need to get their together and be healthy. It is hard to be optimistic at this point in time given their recent flipflopping.

    so we don't need a guy that will score 15-20 points every night, spark the team off the bench, and create plays for his teammates?..

    Manu needs to come back right away to shake off the rust and be ready for the playoffs.
