Manu's injury (video) + Tim Duncan sketch

Damn. It didn't even look all that bad. Dude just landed a little awkwardly. So why did he go back to the lockerroom and not return to the bench. I hope he will be okay. Reports say that he will remain in Beijing to support the team in the bronze medal game, but that he will return to San Antonio instead of Argentina, to begin his rehabilitation.

Anyway, here's my newest sketch of Timmy. I finished it today to forget about Manu's injury. Of course after I completed it, I went back to worrying about Manu.

Gino...

Nice sketch, dude. I had no idea Tim’s teeth looked like that. I’ve rarely seen him smile.

So, Gino…suck little chatter here in the Church of Manu about his injury. I’m surprised. The latest today (from Manu)

“Only a miracle would allow me to go onto the court,” Ginobili told FIBA.com Saturday. “I would need to wake up really good.”

Ginobili strained a tendon in his left foot during Friday’s game against Team USA, aggravating the same injury that had hobbled him throughout the playoffs last season.

The Spurs, meanwhile, are awaiting results of an MRI that would show the extent of Ginobili’s latest injury.

It is too early to determine if Ginobili would need surgery to correct the ailment. He told the FIBA website he is “prepared” to go under the knife, if it comes to that.

…personally, I just can’t believe it. It wasn’t even a rolled ankle. This is bad news for the Big 3. Pop better hope Roger Mason can step up.

Allez Spurs!

Okay, just so I understand it... in your wildest fantasy, you are in hell. And you are co-running a bed and breakfast with the devil.
