07:50 AM ET 02.11 | Manu Ginobili is good to go. That was the pronouncement coach Gregg Popovich made after a spirited, hour-long practice in midtown Manhattan this morning. The Spurs' star guard will make his return from a broken left hand Saturday night in New Jersey. How did Popovich know it was time? "When Manu's ready, you bring him back," Popovich said. "He's Manu. When he's ready to go, you don't care if you're winning, losing. It doesn't matter, he's coming back."

While Manu is getting back in shape, he can run the offense for 15 mins a game while TP is getting rest that will definitely help during the regular season. But it is going to be hard to win a Title with only 2 functional bigs. We will need some size in the paint come playoff time.
