Can he take his time with his recovery? I really hope he doesn't rush back. This could give him time to heal minor bumps and bruises, not to mention his ankle and PF.
Take Eva to France for 3 weeks Tony and take Chip and Brungy with you.
I think the best idea is to see how long the Spurs can get away with Parker on the sidelines. If they can win some games, Parker can rest up and hopefully refuel. But if they start spiraling downward, Parker will have to limp back in to help save the season.
Let's hope Hill can do a nice point guard imitation and the rest of the team steps up.
Hallelujah!
Hallelujah we do not have any point guard then
Good news that TP sprain isn't a big one.
And Spurs will surely do a move after that injury. With Finely still out, Parker injured and Hairston in D-league, Spurs have only 11 players available: 6 are PF/C and 5 are PG/SG/SF. If Spurs don't sign someone to a 10 days contract, they will at least bring back Hairston from Austin.
We didn't anyway. It's just that now the Spurs realize it.
AD on a ten-day contract makes a lot of sense. As an insurance ballhandler at the very end of the bench, he's good enough. I'm not advocating actually placing him in the rotation but he's a low mistake player who should be able to fit right in.
If the Spurs don't do anything, watching Mason run point guard or Manu try to break a full court press (or Hill make a play, for that matter) will only highlight the need for an emergency point guard over the next couple games.
Decent scorer, but doesn't have the whole point guard thing down yet, though he isn't bad at pick and rolls with Dwayne Jones. I'm less impressed with his defense than I was early on. If they're looking for a more complete point guard, Will Conroy just got back into the league -- if it's a poor man's Hill-type, Dontell Jefferson.
You mother ers will realise how important Tony is to this team for next couple of weeks..
Keep him out as long as possible. No need to rush back from an injury, especially when he's already injured.
this team is going nowhere without TP. he needs to rest up and get healthy
Nah.. not going to win alot of games with TP out..
Mark my words.
This is the same as when Manu or TD is out unless RJ steps out big time.
Phila Chamberlain really wants that Parker-Paul trade to go down LOL..do you write for HoopsWorld, my man?..
I say come back for the Lakers. That should be enough time for healing as long as he sticks to Will's complete plan for a ready-to-dominate ankle.
Ankle sprains can be minimized if treated properly from the point of injury. While it's true that the ligaments stretch when originally hurt, it's possible to keep them at their normal length with aggressive modalities and serious compression and anti-inflams and lots of ice for the next 48 hours. I still think it's a grade 2 and I can see 2 weeks easy with a possibility for a 3rd for precaution. Remember, we need this team healthy for the playoffs, because to lose any of the Big 3 for the playoffs means that losing is a strong possibility.
That's not going to happen, he isnt going anywhere. We need him. Tony will just get some rest, and he'll return to his place, maybe before the All star game, maybe afterwards. Let's hope he'll get over it soon. We are nothing without him.
If TD is out it's much worse.Not the same.
TP is important but we lost 3 in a row with him too until yesterday.If we lose next games it's not only because Tony is out.We have enough talent in this team to win without Parker.
Want? who doesnt want it? It's not going to happen and CP3 can be an idiot but overall Paul is better player than TP.No doubt about it.
That is not true. There are only TD, Manu, and TP in this team that have proved they can win in the POs and the le. Yes, we can win the regular season games without TP but we will really need him when the POs come. W/o TP we are going nowhere. Unless, we just want to be a regular season championship?
TP, just take your time. You know how much the team needs you to be healthy for the POs.
TP is not as valuable as he was the last couple of years and last time i checked, the Spurs did not win alot of games with TP in...
Bottom line is: the Spurs are deep enough to deal with Parker absence. Plus, they have an history of winning games when one of the BIG 3 is out.
Dumb logic. not that i'm surprised but with this logic, that means that not even Tim was important since we lost three in a row with him too.
Anyway, Hill and Manu can do the job, but his scoring force, even this year, could be missed.
Kace, prépare toi à répondre aux nombreux rageux anti parker qui vont avoir ici une belle occasion de ressortir les crocs parceque je pressens de gros matchs du Jefferson en l'absence de Parker
Yeah the many anti parker's are already here, don't know if it can be worse. As for jefferson, I dont think he will be doing so great in the time Parker is gone, so it probably wouldn't be a opportunity for anti parkers even more.
I do hope it though, to see Jefferson doing better finally. I haven't seen the game yesterday, but he seemed to do pretty well.
I just hope Parker can get a good rest and will be back soon, because we need him. We cant miss him too long, because it means a big share of points pg were going to lose. I hope the others can find a way to make up for it when Parker is out.
It sucks that he got hurt, however if the spurs get on a roll and start playin D' that would be bad for TP especially if they started to slight when he comes back. If the spurs go on some kinda of streak then Parker might be the piece they try trading. Welcome Bosh and Calderon to the mix!!!! both in the top 25 that might get traded.
Self-quote, activate!Conroy just got called up by the Rockets.
during tony's absence:
- any win = Spurs better without Parker / Trade Parker
- any loss = Parker's injury and his NT, trade him
- any good game from GHill => We have a new PG, trade Parker
- any good game from RJ => RJ was playing bad because of Parker, trade him (and here you can probably replace RJ with any player playing bad lately)
etc etc ......
PS: i still hope we win all the games during his absence though
