Manu looks like he's moving a lot better than the last video we saw of him. He looked gimpy that time but this time he looks ready to go.

I'm guessing Duncan plays tonight and then sits out tomorrow. And Manu sits out tonight and plays tomorrow.

If anyone ever wondered what it takes to play in the NBA, just take a look at Manu Ginobili or most NBA players for that matter when they are just shooting around. I think Manu made about
80% of his 3 pointers in the shooting drill. Its unreal how talented you have to be.

If ginobili can look good and Duncan can by some miracle heal up and get to 85 90 percent then I'll feel alot better about this team.

Duncan being 85-90% come playoff time will be a huge IF, but I hope to god it happens.

I agree..85-90% is fine with me, IF Ginobili is at around 85-90% as well..

I have confidence that Tony can be the #1 scoring option for this team..

I feel like that too. If Timmy and Manu can at least be 85-90% healthy, we will be fine. Because I think TP can take over the Playoffs for us this year the same way Manu did in 05'. But this time...It's TP's turn :downspin:

well, there's a lot of players, even in non professional basketball clubs, who can knock down 80 % of their shots in practice, even 3's. there's nothing exceptional about that, even if i'm far for being able to do that myself.

what is hard is to be able to make shots in the heat of a game, with an opponent in your face and with the fatigue catching you.

Great news. Without Manu in the lineup at close to 100%, the Spurs would have about as much chance of winning the NBA championship as:
1) Argentina would have winning the World Championships without Manu, or

2) French NT would have winning the World Championships even with Tony Parker,

I make 40% of my shots in practice and 80% of my shots in games.

Where do I sign?

Edit: Oh, and Bonner looks like he's going for 40 tonight.
