Jeff McDonald: Barry works out, for good and bad
Brent Barry, still recovering from the calf muscle injury that had sidetracked his season even before his Feb. 20 "trade" to Seattle, stuck around after this morning's Spurs shootaround to work out.
Barry tested the calf during a fairly rigorous solo shooting session conducted under the watchful eyes of shooting coach Chip Engelland, athletic trainer Will Sevening and strength and conditioning coach Mike Brungardt.
For much of the 30-minute workout, Barry looked like he could play tonight against the Timberwolves, if need be. He buried jumper after jumper from nearly every spot on the arc, proof that there was nothing injured about his shooting stroke.
Before the session ended, however, we were reminded of just how far away Barry could be from returning to the lineup. The workout concluded early, after Barry appeared to tweak something in the calf.
Barry didn't seem to be in pain as he walked off the floor, but he did seem to be in discomfort, stretching and fiddling with his lower left leg. Whatever he did, it was unpleasant enough to cause Barry to call it a day and retire to the whirlpool.
I guess that's bad???? Not sure what to take from that.
not what I wanted to hear but nothing too bad I guess
It doesn't sound good...
AHH , why did they re-sign him if he is this hurt?? I guess they didn't know how bad it still was. We need everyone too with the west this year it is all hands on deck. Damn Brent get healthy we need ya.
does NOT sound good. at all.![]()
So rest him for another 2 weeks. He may be well rested for the playoffs.
Don't you mean ?
Barry will be fine.
I'd expect him to get some playing time after this weekend.
It's tough to expect a 36-year-old to come back from two calf tears in one season. He might be able to come back in a limited capacity or he might not be able to come back at all this year. At the very most, he might be able to play a 8-10 minute role.
it could be just a little strain or a pull from disuse, not an actual reaggravation of the tear.
He was looking alright when I saw him warming up in Orlando the other night.
Come back soon!!
or at least act like you're coming back soon, cuz Finleys actually playing hard now in fear of losing ground..hahah
does this mean that finley'll start sucking again?
It has nothing to do with the calf...nothing serious.
DOn't worry he has already done his job this season.
Getting Fin to wake the up
Well, I'd say this is the time to call up Marcus Williams for insurance but the Spurs have lost him for good.
Did someone else sign him? I hadn't heard.
Clippers Sign Forward Marcus Williams; Waive Aaron Williams
The Los Angeles Clippers today signed free agent forward Marcus Williams from the Austin Toros of the NBA Development League for the remainder of the season and waived forward Aaron Williams. Marcus Williams is the 23rd Gatorade Call-up from the NBA Development League this season.
Selected in the second round of the 2007 NBA Draft by the San Antonio Spurs, Marcus Williams appeared in seven preseason games with the Spurs and averaged 3.3 points and 2.6 rebounds before being waived on Oct. 27 and joining the Toros. The former University of Arizona standout re-signed with the Spurs on Dec. 26 and played in one game before being waived on Dec. 29.
The Seattle, Washington native has been a leader for the Toros in the D-League this season, earning D-League Player of the Week honors for the week of March 10, 2008. In 36 games with the Toros, Williams averaged 19.2 points, 6.9 rebounds, 3.1 assists and 1.5 steals in 34.9 minutes. Williams started 23 games and also shot 52 percent from the field.

I say the Spurs should sign Sean Banks now before the Toros play the D-Fenders without Marcus tonight.
How long usually takes to heal an injury like that?![]()
For Barry, I thought it seems took longer then expected
It's nothing. He just wanted an excuse to jump in the whirlpool.
