Let's Get Physical
With Tim Duncan sidelined for at least two more weeks with a sprained right ankle, the Spurs will need starting center Rasho Nesterovic (right) to pick up the scoring slack. Just don't expect him to do it from the free throw line. With only 27 foul shots at week's end--and 12 makes--the jump-shooting Nesterovic has averaged by far the fewest attempts in the league (minimum: 1,000 minutes).
