I guess having 7 guards isn't all bad.
Manu Ginobili will miss the season opening due to a back injury. In fact, he won't travel to New Orleans. He'll be examined again when the team arrives back in San Antonio. However, with the Spurs playing the next day, it's probably unlikely that Ginobili will be able to go against the Thunder.
It's a bit concerning that Ginobili has already suffered multiple injuries and the season hasn't even started yet. Let's hope this back injury is minor and we see Ginobili back on the court within the week.

Just about time to retire tbh
How about if we just make this default and use it for the year?
Let's hope this ____ injury is minor and we see Ginobili back on the court within the ____.
was gonna throw some money on the boys while in Vegas but this throws a kink in the plan.... ugh back injuries are NOT good.
It sucks. All the injuries he had for a year could be a sign his body isn't just able to play basketball at a high level.
Another concern is the psychological aspect. I find it surprising to see Manu being clearly non-committal about him playing after this year. All these injuries will take a toll on him mentally-wise.
damn! well, that's why we have such a huge bench in the first place, so it is not that bad.
And while I was for Spurs trading away Neal this summer because of their guards logjam, the risk of having Ginobili missing a lot of games for various injuries change the situation. Until Manu proves he can stay healthy or De Colo proves he can contribute at the NBA level, Neal is a keeper.
And here we go... We'll be lucky if he plays 50 games this year
It's gonna be that kind of season again. Ugh!
Why does he keep getting hurt?![]()
I have a bad feeling this will be the year Manu will start a steep decline due to injury/health. And with that the Spurs as well.
Ever watch him play?
Hopefully Pop uses this time to play De Colo, his passing could fill the offensive creation void that Manu's absence will create.
At least its just the first game of the season and not the last one right before the playoffs. Also a chance to see what nando is really made of.
Nope, I've been a Spurs fan since 1992![]()
It'll be interesting to see whether De Colo, Mills, or Neal take extended minutes. Obviously Jack's will be bumped up
Probably spent too much time playing with the twins and tweaked something. Non-Issue, tbh.
Geez this kinda puts off some of the excitement of opening night for me....![]()
He better be ready against OKC because a true compe or would. No excuses.
any1 surprised ??!?UHOH
better now than later, tbh.
get Nando/Neal in a rhythm.
What the happened during the Halloween party ?
Since Jax was dressed as the Joker, I'm sure it's his fault
Nah, it's Parker's fault. He organized it. Trade his ass.
