Any news on Hill's progress?

[jjktkk]

it's a bit of a catch-22. I understand what you are saying with winning three games in a row being a tall order, but one has to weigh that against bringing hill back too early and losing him for the entire series. If he is not very close to 100%, i would much rather them take their chances without him in game 1.

+1

it'd be nice to have him for game 1, but let him rest, i'm sure parker can handle the playoff pressure... lol

Certainly an MRI was done yesterday, but nothing official from the Spurs nor even speculation from those who cover the NBA. At the moment, is there a bigger unanswered question regarding the Spurs pre-playoffs than the status of George Hill? Stein, Ford, Wojnarowski...would someone please go do some ing reporting? Thanks.

damn. Hill was gonna be the X factor in this series IMO.



I say don't rush Hill. He will be out first 2 games and hopefully come back in game 3

[Lebowski Brickowski]

I've stated this many times before, but the biggest problem with Hill going out isn't just losing him, but the fact that it leads to more minutes for Mason.

if the mavs were real men and had any honor they would force caron butler to stomp on someones shoe until his own ankle gets sprained just to keep things fair.

C'mon, somebody....what are the MRI results?

[cd98]

Is this the most clandestine the Spurs have ever been about an injury? Generally this stuff is reported by the second day after the injury.

[Death In June]

I'm a little unfamiliar with NBA rules, but is it not like the NFL, which has to report injury status well in advance of a game?

[Fpoonsie]

Well, considering Pop's trickeration that led to me wasting money on the last game's tix, I'm not at ALL surprised that things are so damn quiet on the Spurs' end.

[Höfner]

Spurs saying nothing is either really good or really bad.

Really good = Mavs will get an unexpected dose of Hill's mamba down their thorats
Really bad = Hill is done for the first round save spot minutes

[TJastal]

Well ain't this a .... Popazit plays Hill in a meaningless last game of the year (well, almost meaningless.. he was still trying to win....(you know calculated risk and all) and Hill reinjures ankle and is completely ineffective in game 1 and things don't look promising for the rest of the series.

Meanwhile, smart coaches that actually sat their star players for meaningless games (Shaq / Bynum) are reaping the rewards of not being stupid.

I'm sure the popalogists will still spin it all as something positive and call it "brilliant".
