Relax guys im sure any of you that have played basketball for high school or college have had a sprained finger. I wouldnt be surprised if he just taped it up and kept playing. Although it would be kind of hard if it was his shooting hand.
These games aren't BS. Playing for your nation is a big deal.
When the nations start paying the players outrageous salaries like these guys get from the NBA teams, till then, these teams will be BS.
THAT simple.

There are things more valuable than money to people. I know it is an amazing thought, but it is the truth. Maybe playing for one's nation falls in that.
There has never been a sport team which has made playing with your national team part of a contract. I don't think there ever will be. The NBA gets tons of press from events like this. The Dream Team had a lot to do with spreading the game to other parts of the world. You think the NBA wants to stop that?
These games are from BS.
I know that Slovenian national basketball association must pay insurance for all our guys from NBA. So your poor team won´t lose money if Beno get´s hurt.
I hope TPark will you sleep better now.
And playing for their national team should be highest goal for every sportsman/woman.
so duncan is bad beacuse he does not want to?
He played for his NT isn´t he?
Now he is retired from NT so younger players can play. Isn´t this so sweet?
FIBA sucks. T Duncan
No Duncan hated FIBA refs all the way through, not just when losing
FIBA sucks because the refs are incompetent assholes. T Duncan
What about Bavetta & Co.?
I couldn't give two s about that worthless overpaid stiff.I know that Slovenian national basketball association must pay insurance for all our guys from NBA. So your poor team won´t lose money if Beno get´s hurt.
Its guys like Parker getting 11 million dollars, over there screwing around.
I couldn't give two s about Parker, TPark and Spurs (but only now and becouse of you).
his girlfriend is over there?
Congrats, now I once again could not give a crap what you think, thanks to you.I couldn't give two s about Parker, TPark and Spurs (but only now and becouse of you).
TPark, for someone like you that has such national pride of USA, I don't understand why you don't get why the guys want to play for their national teams.
Surely you understand their patriotism. The Spurs do.
Anyway, hopefully Tony's finger is just sprained and not badly dislocated.
Whatever...
He probably feels since they are u.s. citizens then they should support their country. If it werent for them coming to the U.S. then they wouldnt be right now. You would have never even heard of manu ginobili or tony parker.
comeon foreigners, lets not forget that the USA is all that matters
You could probably argue that the Spurs don't win les 2 & 3 without Dream Team 1.
I agree with Tpark.
The Spurs own these guys. When you pay someone millions to perform a job, then you better damn do it.
These games mean nothing. The olympics is the only tourney that means something outside of the NBA finals.
If Parker, Ginobili or Bowen get hurt playing in this BS, they should forfeit their income.
TPark is a moron who quits during the post season.
Like you own Shaq in height.
As i can tell, the season is over. They're not getting paid by the NBA.When you pay someone millions to perform a job, then you better damn do it.
Most of them are under contract for multiple years with guaranteed money.
