The good news for the Spurs, and for Ginobili, is that the soreness is not in the same ankle he had surgically repaired over the offseason.
Whew. Please be minor and the solution being merely some rest.
I've seen a hitch in his stride for quite a while now, even during the great games.
NBA 82 game schedule is too brutal irregardless if your name is Magic, Bird, Kobe or GNob. To me players should be given nights off on a regular basis, esp b2bs and esp those prone to injury. Yeah yeah i know injury can occur at any time, even to rested players. Happens more to prexsisting conditions tho.
