im scared
TP used to be a fast healer...
It's hard not to be over-confident when you can subtract our big 3's points for the night and we still win. But obviously Green and Neal aren't going to go for 20+ each next game so we will still need Parker. If Parker is out does that mean Manu starts :O
Udoka said that TP said he was fine during post game.
I think it was just a bad cramp/tightening up and the MRI is precautionary. He just needs a good massage tomorrow.
Stop being a Debbie Downer.
ESPN is trying to push this as a major story...CLOWNSAUCE!
Ohh I almost forgot about it.
Hopefully spurs in 5 !
I was a lot more nervous before seeing his interview. He looked ok, and it feels a lot more precautionary given a weird feeling. I was worried during the game because he looked depressed. I'm way less concerned at this point.
"I felt something in my hamstring". Those words send chills down my spine, because I've heard guys say that so many times when it was a tear. I don't know about the rest of you, but I'm going to have a hard time sleeping.
Tony had 8 assists tonight, in limited minutes. The lack of assists was a big concern from last game. , Game 1 too. Those other guys get a lot of their point production because of Tony.
I'll ask Tony Sr. And report back tomorrow. Not gonna text him tonight. I'm sure he's fine.
NBaTV. Showed the interview. Said MRI tomorrow. New feeling. Could be a cramp. Don't know, doing the MRI.
He went back in the game so they were very sure it was not a tear when they examined him in the locker room, MRI is precautionary most likely..
If he had a torn hamstring A, they wouldn't have allowed to him play the fourth quarter.
B. he would've had a significant limp in the fourth, which he didn't.
Neal haters oughtta be ashamed of themselves! Neal with it es!
Anything that has to do with the hamstring is very serious. I don't care if he came back and played a couple minutes in the 4th. Hamstrings are very sensitive and once you hurt them the only way to heal it is rest. Anyone who's had a hamstring injury and tried to play on it will tell you that it's no joke. You can't just suck it up. It severely hinders your ability to run, jump, etc. Let's pray it's not serious.

Downtown San Antonio is insane tonight, you'd think they just won the le. These people love their Spurs and then some.
Parker could have had his leg amputated and would have gone back in. It's the Finals; there's no way a compe or like him won't at least try to play through injury.
I'm sure Parker will play. Will he be healthy enough to be near the top of his game? That's what I'm worried about.
Green and Neal aren't going to hit 492 three-pointers in Game 4, tbh.
Ok chicken little put the scissors down....
This. He doesn't have to have a torn hammy to jeopardize our chances in this series.
Good news is we have about 1,000,000 healthy point guards. Bad news is none of them are Prime Parker
Hamstrings take weeks to heal. If Parker's okay to play in two days, that's a major bullet dodged.![]()
Small tears don't always work like that. But they get worse (more painful) over the next day or two. I'm a little surprised Pop put him back in the game, but it is the Finals after all. The problem is, he might even play with a small tear, just because it is the finals. (Don't scream - I don't know if the Spurs would, but it could be done.) But he wouldn't be near 100%. And the Heat have so much foot speed, he needs to be.
Let's just hope it was a strain. That's bad enough.
