Parker MRI reveals hamstring ‘stretch’
Spurs Nation | 0
Tony Parker posted on his Facebook account Wednesday that he has a slight hamstring “stretch,” seemingly putting his availability for Thursday’s Game 4 in doubt. Translated via Google: “I just had MRI. Result: I suffer from a slight stretch to the hamstring. We’ll see tomorrow how I feel, I really hope to play!” The Spurs [...] More »

Lol He's definitly going to play, he's just totally mind ing the cHeat
He is not revealing the extent of his injury......I think to CIA Pop....the Heat...I see him playing......
Sucks that it wasn't a cramp.
Parker is going to play, obviously. Let's hope he's healthy.....
A limped Parker is horrible news
Damn. We need more Manu at point keep the pressure off TP
Not so sure the Spurs would admit it was just a cramp if it was.
Whatever the case I hope it's minor enough for him to push through it.

Nothing serious. He'll probably start tomorrow.
Let's hope he takes care of himself well. MRI's don't reveal everything, unfortunately. He doesn't have a history of chronic hamstring problems, which means he can recover somewhat quickly.
As long as he can go and facilitate, the Spurs have a chance. Ideally he should rest tomorrow but that's a monumental gamble. I think you go all in and if he worsens it, oh well. And its not like he's been a world beater this series anyhow. The way Kawhi is defending James and the Heat supporting cast looking worn out, let's hope the Spurs and even a hobbled Tony is enough to get it done. I'm confident!
Hope manu gets hot from the 3 ball. We will need some extra offense, if TP can't get any rhythm.
Wonder what kind of weighting one uses to see a hammy "stretch".....probably some kind of magnetization prepared sequence I'd think. MT perhaps?
Anyway, he needs to earn his keep. Unless it's necrotic and rotting put him in.
This day off of rest should help him!
it looks great in the pictures I got.

"Hey Tony...we are gonna no comment, but put on your facebook page that you are hurt and may not play"
*wink*
if they don't have to blitz Parker they can smother the threes.
How effective will Tony be? The big question becomes can Corey Joseph hold his own and try to simulate what Tony Parker does for Game 4? Can Manu go vintage for once, even though he sort of did it for last night, and lead the Spurs to victory? Can Tim Duncan turn back the clock to 2003 and dominate inside with his post moves? Can the roles players simulate what they did last night and try to repeat their performance for Game 4? Regardless of what happens, the Spurs need to make sure that they play the right way again for Game 4 which is to pass the ball (ball movement), rebound, and defend. Very improbable but can Patti Mills come in as a back up in an emergency, make plays, and hit every open three point shot that he takes? I think Pop playing Neat at point is more likely than seeing Patti Mills on the floor.
Parker has always been a girl(exaggerate) when it comes to injuries. Practically doubting his services for the next game even before an MRI or Doctor's diagnoses. See how you feel on game day, take a painkiller, and think about the big picture. 2 wins away from a championship. He definately has a low threshold for pain though.
Just like when Parker was gonna be "out for at least a week" then played the very next game without issues?
CIA POP FTW
Wouldn't be surprised if he rested game 4.
