No more Manu
What great timing. Manu Ginobili is out for the rest of the season and the playoffs.
What exactly does this mean? Well, considering we're only a half game back of the Spurs in the division race, it's huge news. Manu is often the man San Antonio relies on in the last minutes of the game (as well as a huge flopper) and they have looked lost at times without him this season. His loss could mean the difference between winning the division and placing second.
And don't forget about the playoffs. In the last meeting between the two teams, the Spurs were without Manu. No surprise, they lost. Why? They were without their main slasher and shot creator in the final minutes of the game. Having to play the Rockets (or any other team in the West) without Manu in a 7 game series is treading on dangerous water.
Of course, it is the Spurs we're talkinga bout. They probably will just find a way to move on. Regardless, this is great news.
[BBN Note: Before Spurs fans freak out, the phrase "great news" doesn't apply to the actual injury. We're all just glad that the Rockets may benefit from this. Even if we don't like Manu very much.]
No cursing in title. No pirated material, such as links to online game streams. Do not cut/paste entire sections of content from other websites. Thanks.

either way i’ll be happy if we play LA again. because that means we are outta the first round!
blasphemy!
Seriously though, I hate the way he flops, but he’s a great player. He does practically everything well.
Damn... looks like the Spurs streak of winning it every other year will come to an end

Teams are suffering the misfortuned we've endured as of late.
Injuries all around.
And spurs fans, BBN lies. He’s ecstatic BECAUSE manu got injured.

even better than manu injury (it’s not life endangering so i don’t care, he can go the way of the boneyard. . . gerald wallace lung collapse, that’s an injury a non-fan can lament) is RAFERS RETURN tonight! i just got really expensive tickets [in the cheap seats, damn waiting too long to buy], and am thoroughly thrilled about watching him [get] play[ed by] brooks and lowry. well that, and watching D-Ho get smacked around by the Great Wall.
