Updates pls.?![]()
OAKLAND, Calif. (AP) - The San Antonio Spurs placed center Rasho Nesterovic on the injured list with a left ankle sprain before their game with the Golden State Warriors on Sunday night.
Nesterovic, averaging 5.9 points and 6.6 rebounds, scored eight points in 20 minutes in the Spurs' 125-124 double-overtime victory over the Los Angeles Clippers on Saturday night.
Linton Johnson, who has played in only one game this season due to a stress fracture in his left knee, was activated from the injured list to take Nesterovic's spot.

10 days? that's already the playoffs...![]()
hopefully next year.
Anyone who thinks Rasho isn't important to this team is kidding themselves.
He may not look like the most athletically gifted player, but his defense is a huge part of this team.
Watch when him and Timmy come back how low the shooting percentages for the other team go. It's not all Timmy, Rasho is a great clog in the middle.
What are the news from the guys on IL ?
Tim will be back at the end of the week. If everything is going the right way, he'll be with us on saturday against Memphis. Concerning Rasho, he hurt his ankle against the Clippers. Acoording to the first diagnosis, he'll be out for ten days. And for Manu, these are the "aducteurs" (plz help me on translation these are the muscles on the inside of the thighs) which still make him suffer. As he played more than 50 minutes in Los Angeles, it was better to let him rest against Golden State. It would useless to take risks. All in all, it means that everybody will be healthy come play-off time.
Pop says Rasho probably will not be ready for the 1st or 2nd game of the first round.![]()
what?
we need him if we play Memphis. Or vs Camby if we play Nuggets. I want revenge on that 8 blocks he made against us the last time.
Hey Sequ Spur, is there any player on this team that you like? You are a Spurs fan, or are you?
Yep.
Parker, Duncan, Bowen, Barry, Brown, Marks, Big Dog, and Big Shot Bob.
Does that make me a Spurs fan?

okay, Just want confirmation...
noticed Manu's name NOT on the list... how about that 40 pts he made against the Clips, not good enough for you, huh?![]()
Yeah, the 40 pts was overrided by "I got the s"

His team was in a war last night and he was dressed in civi's. Typical Manu.
I saw TNT commercials saying the playoffs start April 24th.
Rasho's injury is a blessing, this guy sucks. A waste of $50 million (correct me if i'm wrong) for 5 fouls, 6 points, 7 rebounds. Is he possibly one of the worst signings by spurs management? I prefer Robert Horry & Nazr & Massenburg to rotate. Rasho just gets posterized, humiliated, run over, scored on, I feel bad for him. It's sad they had to replace the admiral with this galut. Shoulda waited for a cheaper and more efficient free agent.
What defense are you talking about??? Letting players run around him and dunk on him, the he slaps his hands and looks at the floor?
The only defense he is able to demonstrate is because of his size, he is what 7 feet? Of course, his presence is a factor, but not worth $50 million.
What do you mean "typical manu"?
Hopefully next year you go away![]()

Uh the defense he plays every night.What defense are you talking about???
You obviously pay attention to the game as much as a slug does.
Nesterovic is considered a top 5 NBA defender at his position.
That simple.
Also, if you want hard evidence.
Pull the game tape out from the 27th of March and watch his one on one, team, and help defense against the Rockets.
But once again, another uninformed, or as pop would say "Doesnt know squat about the game of basketball"
Hey CHAMPS AGAIN, I don't understand your signature, mind explaining it to me?
And yeah, no one can beat the spurs in a 7 game series, not with duncan, maybe without.
I don't wanna get into a immature little quarrel here but you are an idiot if you think rasho is top 5 in the nba at his position, that is absurd. You have to realize there isn't many good centers out there now. Name one besides Shaq & Yao? This should be no reason for rasho to be considered "the best at his position" simply because there aren't many good productive centers out there. The scarcity of good centers is what makes him seem good, which he is not. Emeka Okafur is better, although I think he's listed at PF.
And I think Pop is a genius. A pure genius. I can understand when pop says "people who don't know squat" because some people just want to watch athletic plays like amare dunking over people. Contrary to what you may have already foolishly assumed, i'm not one of them. Heck, I love the way Duncan is so smooth and non-flashy. He gets done. Rasho on the other hand is a pure galut, he fumbles balls and he doesn't bring anything crucial to the table.
You are simply speaking as a biased Spurs fan. Open your mind and admit to yourself he is not that good.
So get that weak out of here.![]()
DEFENSIVELY read.if you think rasho is top 5 in the nba at his position
Doesnt bring anything crucial??he fumbles balls and he doesn't bring anything crucial to the table
Inside defensive presence??
Wanna know why GS and the Clippers got so many inside points last night??
SUre no duncan, but no Rasho was felt just as much as well.
His offense is bad no question, but Rasho is a fantastic defensive player, and steps the up in a big game matchup against a fellow center.
Uh yeah you are, youve totally ignored his defensive game.Contrary to what you may have already foolishly assumed, i'm not one of them
WTF,You have to realize there isn't many good centers out there now. Name one besides Shaq & Yao? This should be no reason for rasho to be considered "the best at his position" simply because there aren't many good productive centers out there
so just because there isnt 20 great centers, doesnt mean hes a good center??
THat makes zero in sense.
Emeka Okafur is better,
Whoa, goin out on a limb there chief.
Offensively, no hes not great, but could be if hed ever get his head out of his ass.Open your mind and admit to yoursel he is not that good.
Defensively, hes right behind Bowen and Duncan as best on the team.
Are ING KIDDING ME!!??!?!?! Rasho behind duncan and bowen!?!?!?! THAT IS A TRUE SHAME OF A REMARK!
Have you seen ginobli even play man??? Manu is their 3rd best defensive player, followed by the rest of the team which plays equivalent defense on most nights.
1. Yes, obviously he brings an inside presence because of his size, but simply because he is 7 feet tall he is worth all that money? give me a break. Malik Rose deserves Raho's contract and place, he gave the spurs a load of second chance points than Rasho.
2. Dude, even if rasho was there, baron davis and jason richardson would still penetrate and score/dish if rasho was there, he is too slow and stupid.
3. I am appalled by your ignorance when you say "makes zero fuucking sense". Your argument about him being top 5 in the NBA is made invalid because you don't have much to compare him to at that position. When there is not much compe ion because "teams or players" are subpar, you cannot make a fair judgment. Now look at the PF position, duncan is obvioulsy one of the best, right next to KG. You have pau gasol, my boy ak47, off-minded nowitzki, carlos boozer, okafur, elton brand, chris webber (NOT! lol), among others. In that position there is compe ion, so saying duncan is top 5 in those would be fair because he is amongst great players, and saying he is good or the better of all those is a fair and good judgment. You should really allow yourself to understand all aspects of the game mr. expert.
4. I am not going out on a limb, Okafur was chasing duncan,garnett, and brand in double doubles, blocks, and rebounds if i'm not mistaken. Rasho? don't make me laugh.
5. Quit thinking so biased, I am a die-hard spurs fan but I don't deny myself the truth. The truth of the matter is Rasho is overpaid and overrated by fools like you. The truth of the matter is no one can catch a ball, turn around, jump, and shoot in 0.4 seconds.
on the defensive side, have to stick on Tpark man
rasho>manu...
while true, wtf does thisThe truth of the matter is no one can catch a ball, turn around, jump, and shoot in 0.4 seconds
nevermind.
Your totally clueless and not even worth argueing with.
Your one of the clueless bozos who listens to Stephen A Smith thinks what he says is the verdad and agrees.
Once again youve conradicted yourself in that thread big time, but I dont care.
Not even worth the effort.
No way man. All those steals ginobli gets. All those shots he makes the other player change.
I take it back, hes the 4th best on the team.
Duncan, Bowen, Ginobili. Nesterovic.
If you cant see this, your clueless as Pop would say.
