    You know how deaths and injuries occur in threes?

    I'm just holding my breath waiting for the third.

    with Nash getting injured & might be out longer, TP has a bigger chance than Manu. Nash is the only pt. guard in the west who's playing better than Tony right now(no offense to Bibby), and deserves consideration.
    As for Manu, well, they say Kobe will only be out for 2 weeks, he has a lot of compe ion-Allen is one. But if Pops will coach I can see them playing. Let's see.

    Parker ought to be selected to the ASG, with Nash out and the way he's playing. He really ought to be selected.

    It doesn't sound like a serious injury to Nash. He get's back spasms sometimes, and he did not (evidently) really injure it, just aggrevate it.

    It sounds like he will be back in action soon to me.

    And as for the AS game, you have to beat sg's as well as pg's, they select them all together, so I doubt that parker gets it over Nash, assuming Mcgrady and Kobe can't go for some reason...

    back injurys are lingering...anyone remember that DRob's back injury limited him from being the same player he was prior to the injury. I know it was a floating particle that would have big Dave sitting out a few games due to numbness in his legs.

    I wonder how Nash's injury will affect his performance for the rest of the season?

    It wasn't because of major contact or anything that Nash got injured. He was practicing because he was schedule to play tomorrow. It was a freak thing. Barbosa stepped on Nash's foot and sprained his ankle and somehow at the same time Nash twisted his back. After one hour of treatment, Nash still couldn't move. So I'm guessing he'll be out a couple games at least.

    Kori, you think Nash will sit out tomorrow so that he can be ready for Friday? Tony and Beno really worked Nash over in SA, last time. Nash is out of game shape (sitting out 3 games and over 30). I think Tony, Beno, Barry and Devin can work on Nash to prevent him from being effective if he does play on Friday. Any thoughts? Buller...anyone?

    I don't think Nash will be out of "game shape." He is not the greatest defender anyway, as evidenced by Tony's destroying him last game. The more serious question will be how well he initiates their offense; if he can pass, jump shoot and drive, he will do the most damage that way. If he can't, he is not very effective.

    I think Tony Parker's defense has improved to the point, where you can start thinking, that the opposing point guard could have an offnight.

    I think he's out tomorrow for sure. But who knows if he can be physically ready for Friday. Back injuries are hard to judge, even if it's only a slight injury.

    Barbosa stepped on Nash's foot when Nash changed direction on him. The "freak accident," as D'Antoni called it, left the Suns browsing the National Basketball Development League in search of temporary backcourt help.

    Six-foot-1 Omar Cook, who played one season at St. John's, was an Orlando second-round pick in 2001, and 6-4 Smush Parker, who played 11 games with Detroit earlier this season, are possible 10-day contract candidates.

    It sounds like Nash's back has seriously cramped up solid.

    In my own repeated experiences, hardly unique, a back that tight can take 2 or more weeks to be completely pain free and loosened up, but that's for a civilian, not a pro ball player.

    ( Back pain researchers say that all (non-chronic) back cramps goes away in about 2 weeks, no matter what is done, or not done, as therapy. Time is best for healing a cramped back. )

    It really sucks that winning @PHX Friday will have an *.

    But, it will be payback time @SAC Sunday, and @SEA the Friday after.

    Ah, I forgot Smush was out there again. Omar still doesn't seem like enough of a shooter to fit.
