    5th metacarpsal, isn't that pinky finger? Man up and play on, Kobe did it.

    is it his shooting hand??

    ..since this is one of their final years i'm sure he'll wrap it up and come back early.

    Sounds like he needs a good hand job.

    Eh I don't feel the slightest bit sad for the Spurs. I bet they'll use this injury to their full advantage, like others have posted, to tank and get a higher draft pick. How fun it'd be to see Duncan and A.Drummond play together.. Kinda how Robinson and Duncan played together.. great!!! :/

    looks like manu broke him mano... any ways this makes the spurs even more vunerable as he was playing the best out of their big 3.

    Manu and Z-Bo injuries should help us out. I dont feel bad for anyone else anymore after what we went through with TMAC and YAO.

    @Monroe_SA: Per #realCoachPop it will be 6-8 weeks before Manu Ginobili's return

    The Spurs are close to dead. Not only will they miss Manu because he's their best player, not having him soak up 30-35 mins/game means TP, TD and others will have to play more. Their team will be burnt even if they make the playoffs. Manu may never recover his form this season.

    Knowing Pop, he will aim for the 8th seed and not worry about anything else.

    It's not actually the finger - that would have been his 5th carpal. The metal carpal would be a bone within the hand itself - but yes, the 5th would be the pinky side.
