I know Ginobilli is an entirely different player and his role on this team is different than that of Tim's, but Timmy went down with an ankle injury last year and the Spurs learned from it...
7-3
losses to, DET, NOK, MILW - all on the road
Won against Dal, PHI, LAC, MIN, SAC, NYK, TOR. - 3 on the road

Thank you. I didn't think it was as bad as some Mavs fans were talking about on another board. They think the Spurs are going to sink without Ginobli now.
The spurs are in danger of losing the first spot though. That will be key for homecourt and who gets the easier matchup in first round. Dallas is on a row right now.
.... no more brakes for Manu..
Manu should play summer ball with Argentina every summer now.
Tony did, and look how freakin good he is..Tony dominated last night.
ing udonis haslem ass .....
I'm so worried. It is probably a level 3 sprain, meaning complete ligament tear. Last year, Timmy had a level 2 sprain. When Manu went down , you can hear his moans. It was so aweful.
You're kidding right? It's just halfway through the season right now. Surely you remember your team being run down by the Spurs in April enough times to know a midseason #1 seed means .The spurs are in danger of losing the first spot though.
I sprained my ankle in September, and it still twinges every now and then...I don't know how in the they play on hurt ankles I said it once I'll say it twice that HURTS
Reading that makes my heart hurt. My poor Gino!
Chances are the Spurs won't slip enough to fall any more than a flip with Dallas for top seed. In my view, this hardly matters as the West is pretty balanced from 5 through 8. If the 8th team enters the playoffs hot, and matched up well with their compe ion, they could very easily give a #1 seeded Dallas a much tougher time than a slumping #5 could give San Antonio. And visa-versa.
Regardless, if Dallas and SA end up as the two best records and each advance, they meet in the 2nd round. While Dallas is perhaps stronger than in years past, they have done little to demonstrate HC would be a big enough boost to get them over the top against a healthy Spurs in playoff mode.
I think homecourt is more important to San Antonio. They are very human on the road and if Dallas gets that homecourt they could pull it off against the spurs. Anyone watching Dallas lately should worry.
Well I think homecourt is more important to Dallas because they haven't done crap in the playoffs yet. No one is going to beat Detroit in a series if they don't improve anyway, so your premature gloating over Manu's injury is moot.
