DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAMMMMMMMMMMNNNNNNNNN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Fractured 5th metacarpal on left hand for @manuginobili ... He'll be re-examined in San Antonio' no estimate for return

should just put in the 3rd string players the rest of the game...

Wolves might as well put blindfolds on, because clearly they don't need to see the basket to make shots...

4-6 weeks?

it is one thing for a Spurs player to get injured, but to have your opponent just throw up shots left and right, and they go in... bull sh**

Luke with these runners from the FT line...

with the number of 3s the Wolves are hitting, their lead should only be like single digits without those...

and they are making a ton of shots that roll around the basket and/or go in and out then back in...

Yeah, only being down 12 with the amount of crazy shots and 3s that they have hit is definitely a positive, especially with Manu not playing the second half.

Probably at least 8 weeks would be my guess.

On another note, JA didn't do much to earn more minutes. I think he might be the man out when Neal returns.

Now that I think about it more, JA will have to play because of the absence of Manu but I still think Neal will get major minutes.

Thankfully Neal worked on his PG skills during the offseason; because the Spurs are going to need him to showcase those skills when he returns, as a playmaking SG, to try and match what Manu did.

I wouldn't mind seeing a lot of:

Neal
JA
Kawhi
Timmy
Splitter

doesn't help that this happened during the Spurs first b2b2b
