    ^^^^ Nando is really a solid player...like his game...

    The Spurs couldve really used AB as a back up(but he doesnt play defense lol..)

    Will not affect SA's chances of going to the WCF and possibly to the Finals.

    Fine them. I paid to see Tony Parker play. Not for him to sit at home.

    How do you figure? TP's ankle will likely not be 100% for the rest of the season will a Level 2 sprain...even if he's only at 80-90%, I don't see them coming out of the Western Conference with such tough competition...

    I think I may have worded it wrong when I said "chances". I don't think it will change the outcome of whether or not they make it. They will make it to the WCF and I assume they will make it to the finals. Finishing with 2-4 less wins should not affect them.

    The Spurs are a team that can continue to win without their best player, like a better version of Chicago.

    They will still win 65-70% of their games with Parker out which I do not believe gives OKC or LAC enough of a chance to catch them. Even if they do, SA is still good enough to beat those two teams in their home.

    they;ll be fine. nando will score 20 and 7 assists and some guy they pick up from a rec league in honduras will come and score 13/5. It's what they do.

    Spurs are slated to play five nationally televised games in the next four weeks. I wonder how much Stern will fine them for letting Parker get injured.

    This could actually open up a first team all NBA slot for Harden

    Spurs should go after brooks. Imagine the awkwardness if brooks actually joined the team..

    The Spurs could probably let Bob Sura run point and they would keep winning. Thats all they do.
