he's been like that all game, don't know what's up with him tonight.
He sure doesn't look too happy on the bench in these final minutes![]()

I'm guessing either just really exhausted, or he picked up a bug. I don't think there's an injury. Other than those two jumpers to start the fourth, he was awful. He's only credited with 3 turnovers, but there were at least four others that teammates bailed him out of.
He left the court for the locker room early in the game, maybe he caught the stomach flu that's been going around.
definitely isn't injured, he looked fine physically..it was probably a sickness or being tired from last night, like others have said..
Ze li'l frenchman looked ill tempered on the bench there, watching like a scrub as Ginobili ran point and Hill played off the ball.

Anyone remember Manu's first B2B after his return? He ing stunk.
Same thing.
The last time Parker played after a double overtime game, he sprained his ankle and missed three weeks. I'll taking sucking over an injury.
Parker had no legs. I actually wanted Pop to go with Hill earlier and not risk Parker turning an ankle due to fatigue again.
Ginobili really stunk until that 4th quarter, he was in the same boat darn near.
You could tell from the outset though that Parker had nothing. He just looked gassed.
It's amazing how consistent Tim is. I mean he played over 50 minutes last night, and he still had a 19/11 game today.
I think that separates a franchise player like Tim from a role player (albeit a very good one) like Tony.
Duncan is one in a million.
Manu, Parker, etc are inconsistent by defiinition. Duncan on the other hand, is like chuck says "Mr. Groundhog Day"
Yes he is.![]()
Well at least Tony finally gets to take breaks. The past few years he's been the only go to PG. Now Hill can come in and let TP rest and put less pressure on him. Keeps him healther and saves him for the playoffs.![]()
Ginobili actually looked solid all game....but he sucked yesterday, so I guess he was just saving up for tonight!![]()
Uh no, Ginobili was turning the ball over at will to the point where Pop gave him a "are you ing kidding me" look after a turnover then a stupid foul and1.
Ginobili up till that 4th was bad.
lets just say manu had 2 forgettable games but 2 "bad ass" ass usual 4th quarters. Manu is a 4th quarter player. that's all
I'll give you that his passing was off....but he was driving with force and nailing his outside shots.
His legs weren't tired, in fact he had enough energy to hoist up a step-back fadeaway three pointer in the last few minutes of the game.
Ginobili was fine.
Spurs had about 6 or 7 turnovers in the 4th quarter alone. Those, along with other bad decisions (ill-advised passes, airballs) are indicative of either a team that is poorly coached or one that is fatigued. Since it's obvious it's not the former, I'd opt to say most of the vets were a bit gassed.
Parker was gassed. Ginobili could've used some rest as well. Like others have mentioned, I would've wanted to see Pop go more with Hill and Mason tonight. However, because the Spurs allowed the Hawks to get back in the game and make it close toward the end, it was "all hands on deck".
this one looks like it hurts.. timmy's left arm/wrist

The Spurs players have had both the stomach flu and a respiratory thing/cold going around. I don't know if Tony was sick or not (I know he had the cold part of it in Denver), but he looked worn out from the tip.
I'm glad Manu had a good game. Some fans were starting to get worried about him.
Role player? Are you ting me.![]()
it feels good to have a solid backup PG though, doesn't it?..
