you have to be kidding me..
This 's starting to not seem believable.
Neal with a sprained foot. Damn, the injuries never stop...
Duncan is a go but is supposedly on a minute restriction. Bonner was stiff after the last game but will give it a go tonight.
Parker's playing, at least
This 's starting to not seem believable.
ing spurs are so deep this season, tbh
Bonner (inadvertently) hurt Neal, I remember both of them trying to cut off a baseline drive and Neal looking down at his foot after Bonner loped off.
pop is in full roster evaluation mode.
seriously doubt these injuries are significant.
common used term applies "CIA POP"
This compressed schedule is just stupid. These nagging injuries are going to continue. Let's just hope they avoid any serious injuries.
good news for Justin Dentmon...
I'm not sure why anyone gets pissed about this if but for anything other than establishing chemistry. Even then, it gives Boris and Jack more time to get acclimated, so the chemistry argument could go either way. The majority of this team has been together for a while now anyways.
If the team is capable depth-wise, then it's a smart move to keep the players fresh. Why risk the two most fragile players on the team against NOH?
Makes sense why they called up Dentmon now. Feels like it's going to take a miracle to have everyone ready for the playoffs.
It was ing dumb from the nba to lose 2 months of compe ion and only play 16 less games than in a normal season. It's killing a lot of teams.
Parker's injury was not serious at all. Seems like pop plan for this B2B2B was to rest 1 of the big 3 at each game and let play the other 2:
- Manu/TD against Dallas
- TP/TD against NO
- TP/Manu tomorrow
This is better than resting all of them in one of the 3 games.
Hope it was something pop wanted and not forced by the injuries and he will do the same for the other B2B2B
This is expected. A surprise to me would be a completely healthy Spurs team.
i think that he rested tony as a preventative measure vs. dallas.
sucks about neal. have they set a timetable for his return?
as much chance as leCrab not choking in the fourth, tbh
Parker, Leonard, Duncan, Jackson, Green, Diaw, Blair, Bonner, and Anderson is your 9 man rotation.
We need Mills badly. Dentmon I guess is going to have to play.
Indeed. I think if Pop continues to limit Manu and TD's minutes and we can ride our depth, we should be ok barring any new injuries.
The injuries never stop.
Do we know how long Neal could be out?
The other side is in worse shape. They're missing three guys who started their most recent game (their entire frontcourt of Kaman, Smith, and Ariza) as well as Okafor and Gordon.
Yup...the Spurs should destroy them on the boards and win this game handily even without Manu/Splitter/Neal.
what was that? point blanked layup missed by green
edit: oops thought its the game blog thread
We do need Mills. If we could just keep a competent player to bring the ball up the court healthy we would not have to overuse Neal and Parker.
Other posters are correct as well. Lots of teams suffering. How is it that Kobe, Gasol, and Bynum have stayed relatively healthy.. (cept for the Wade face slap during the allstar sham). Actually I think Bynum might be due for a knee problem.
If we lose in the playoffs due to injuries, I wonder how many "Would the spurs beif it was a regular 82 game season?" threads we'd get
Help Help the sky is falling. Manu is resting NOT hurt. Splitter will likely go Sunday. Neal injury is something to watch tomorrow night when he comes back from his day of REST.
Stop trying to make something out of nothing.
Spurs have gone from looking like the best team I've seen in years to the worst in 24 hrs.
