Tony Parker sprains ankle! 

Post#1 » by walkingart » Sat Nov 8, 2008 1:44 am

Things are not looking good for the Spurs, they are average without Manu and if they lose TP for any extended amount of time, they are down right awful!

Could the Spurs build a big enough hole, that they won't make the playoffs this year?

And if they don't make the playoffs, will Stern rig the lottery to get the Spurs in the top 3?

The Spurs are going to be in a rough spot for these next couple weeks unless they are able to find some way to obtain some help through a trade or free agency pick up.
I think they are just going to have to weather the storm till they get all their players healthy as they don't really have that much in the way of tradeable assets.

Sucks, it could happen to anyone. They'll weather the storm, however; it's the MFing Spurs, they're always there. Unfortunately... :-?

I actually feel sorry for them. Regardless of my hate for Horry and Bowen and the Spurs organization in general, I still respect them as a team because of their success.

If they cannot win more than half games before Manu comes back, I think they cannot get in.

Thank God... not that he's injured, that blows, but that the Spurs are having problems... Of course,if they miss the playoff and hit the lotto...
