Bad news for Roddy and Jkidd tbh
Hopefully they will be okay.
Of course, Matt Bonner is probable.

Duncan, Blair, and Dawson as the only bigs. Yuck!
I don't see how we win this without Tony. Small ball is no brainer today. Gonna need big games out of Jack, Leonard, Green, and Manu tonight.
This is just getting ridiculous!
Well... .
Might as well rest Tim and Manu tonight too.. don't want them getting hurt.
Patty Mills better get his visa today and Diaw better clear waivers as well...
"is just getting"???This is just getting ridiculous!
Wonderful.
Hopefully "back spasms" is just code for Pop giving a player a night off. Otherwise, Splitter's injury-prone ways are already getting pretty annoying.
^ I think it is.

Close
In past 10 minutes, Spurs have upgraded Splitter to doubtful for tonight. At this rate, he'll be 100% by tip
^ Just saw that also.
With this condensed schedule, Pop isn't going to play Splitter if he's legitimately doubtful due to back spasms.
it's pretty funny when the most durable guys on your team are a 35 year old with bad knees and a chubby forward with no ACLs. (knock on wood)
If you want to "", you can believe that Pop's thinking is the best way to win today and tomorrow is to use Duncan against the Mavs and a rested Splitter against the Hornets. It makes pretty good sense.
But the problem with that is Pop isn't one to invent injuries for no reason. If he wanted to rest Splitter, he'd just say Splitter isn't playing tonight.
"Back spasms" the new "flu-like systems"?
Well, at least its better than "Old Age".
Parker has his lowest FG% against the Mavs, of all teams in the NBA right now.
I'm more concerned with Tiago missing the game. With 3 games in 3 nights I really believe Pop is just being cautious.
Sucks about Bonner being probable.
These guys have played one game in the last five days. My fat ass gets spasms when I sit around that long too. haha
Go Spurs Go!!!!!!!!!!!!
It's not my money and he's garnered a rep as being a flake, but does anyone think that Julian Wright will get a 10 day contract soon? His numbers at Austin look OK.
Pop has taken some criticism recently for simply "resting" players. Maybe they have decided to attach injury labels for the purpose of resting players. Although I agree, Pop would most likely just say he isn't playing.If you want to "

What about Neal?
It's a regular season game...at home. The conditions are right for a solid night for Bonner.
This is horse crap. We will be lucky to have a five man rotation come playoff time
Considering that most of these injuries are of the hamstring kind, it makes you wonder how the coaching staff is preparing the guys for games. Im sure stretching is not important to them with so many hamstring injuries.
No it doesn't. Who would you rather see, Dawson or Bonner on the court and neither is not an option. Personally, Dawson isn't that good and has very little experience so it shouldn't be a difficult choice.
