The San Antonio Spurs today announced that guard Manu Ginobili will miss the remainder of the 2008-09 regular season as well as the 2009 NBA Playoffs. Ginobili felt stiffness in his lower right leg during the Spurs-Cavaliers game in Cleveland on Sunday afternoon. Following the game he returned to San Antonio. Earlier today, in San Antonio, he underwent a CT scan and an MRI. The examinations showed an increased marrow edema and a stress fracture in his right distal fibula. No timeline has been determined for Ginobili’s return to the court.

Damn, "The Nose" is out, huh? Well, the Spurs are obviously a wrap.
Bet they feel stupid for not getting Vince Carter. They didnt have to give up anything to get him either, just retarded given that their personnel is a win now team.

seb, I agree... especially because TD and Pops would eat him up if he didn't bring his A-game night in, night out.
Obviously, this hurts their playoff chances, but now I'm more excited to watch the Spurs in teh postseason... Tony Parker has been a stud this year--a dark horse MVP candidate--and I'm excited to see if he can push his game even more now.
