OMG, Manu with a broken nose

[FalleNxWiZarDx]

god damn!

[FalleNxWiZarDx]

UPDATE: Inside of the nose is bleeding like crazy!!

Not sure if its broken just yet... but what from I saw its def broken :(

[Chico]

El Narigon!

[Bambililos]

Damn Nowinski. Hope Manu'll be able to play, even if it is with a mask.

[01Snake]

Fuck!!

[mystargtr34]

Definately broken they just showed before and after

[Spurminator]

Steve Nash is loving this.

[TheProfessor]

That looked nasty.

[TIMMYD!]

Does a broken nose keep him out for the remainder of the series?

[lurker]

Feel bad for Manu, but it's not like Dirk did it on purpose.

[superjames1992]

Damn Manu and his National Team play! This wouldn't have happened if he didn't play in the Olympics in 2008!!! ARGH!!!


[/sarcasm]

[EmptyMan]

how serious is a broken nose?!?!?!?!

[smeagol]

Manu is always injured!

[GooberNuts]

Does a broken nose keep him out for the remainder of the series?

Depends if they need to surgically correct it. He can play with a mask either way, but if it needs surgery he can't play until the surgery happens and maybe not for awhile after that. At least that's what I was told when I broke my nose, but I didn't need surgery.

[superjames1992]

how serious is a broken nose?!?!?!?!

He may have to wear one of those facemask things that Richard Hamilton and others have worn in the past. He should be able to play in the next game, for sure, though.

[lurker]

edit: I posted in the wrong thread.

[DJ Mbenga]

hey terry can i borrow your mask?

[rascal]

Great. Now there is a built up excuse when the spurs lose.

[TheProfessor]

Great. Now there is a built up excuse when the spurs lose.
Please.

Manu is legend.

[Thompson]

Feel bad for Manu, but it's not like Dirk did it on purpose.

Dirk didn't, but it looked like Terry might have tried to smack Manu in the nose on the last foul in the game. And it's a little ridiculous that Manu 'fouled Dirk's swinging elbow with his nose.'

[Capt Bringdown]

Legendary performance.

[emanueldavidginobili]

lol manus mask would have to be customized the nose part of the mask would stick out so much lol

[Ariel]

Relax, Manu's got plenty of nose to go around.

[exstatic]

Feel bad for Manu, but it's not like Dirk did it on purpose.

Beaubois did on that last foul, though. Guess he's turning into a real Mav.

[Thompson]

Was that Beaubois? I thought it was Terry, it just seemed like something he would do. Great, Terry's personality is rubbing off on the kid.

[Fernando TD21]

I think Manu will be fine, but in case he needs a mask:

most masks ARE customized.

[emanueldavidginobili]

most masks ARE customized.

every mask is customized you just cant tell, point im trying to make is that you will be able to tell it is lol.

[nkdlunch]

manu doesnt really need a nose to kick ass. that's a fact

[Death In June]

Are they sure it's broken?

[honestfool84]

they should check and see if Dirk's arm is broken...



Manu's nose >>>>>> Dirk's arm.

[The sone]

cant wait to see the pics of it tomorrow...honk honk!

[tmtcsc]

How did Manu manage to come back so strong after having his nose broken ?





He's Manu Ginobili.

[ace3g]

they need to make the mask like the batman mask

[Cherry]

Are they sure it's broken?

Nobody knows, because Manu ran from the locker room. :lmao

[smahmood26]

He has a nasal fracture (per espn)

CT Scan Tomorrow

[Cherry]

Oh, shit :(

[spursfan09]

His nose may be broken, but I think he's just goin to look cooler in a mask

[angelbelow]

[FalleNxWiZarDx]

damn, the phantom of the opera

[FalleNxWiZarDx]

Nasal Fractures
BROKEN NOSE AND NASAL FRACTURES
A nasal fracture can occur with blunt force trauma to the nose such as in a sporting accident. A fracture can occur from a blow to the side or top of the nose causing both of the nasal bones to be twisted and crooked. When the upper lateral cartilage of the nasal bones is fractured, it creates a twist in the lower portion of the nose between the tip and nasal bones. Damage to the upper lateral cartilages can cause valve collapse and vestibular stenosis, impeding a patient’s ability to breath properly. To restore proper breathing, cartilaginous spreader grafts are placed to bolster the upper lateral cartilages outward.

[EmantheSpursFan]

I can already see it now, he will appear next game wearing a Batman mask and Tpark will be Robbin! lol
:P

Just call him Batman"u"

[Cherry]

damn, the phantom of the opera

Or Batman :stirpot:

I hope Manu can play (and play well) for the rest of the postseason, or we're in trouble.

[spursfan09]

This is Manu's chance to get "work done" on his nose lol

[carina_gino20]

Manu on Facebook:


I don't have a perfect nose any more! ;-). Fractured during the game. It hurts a bit but I'm doing ok. Tmrw CT scan.

[raspsa]

"I had no doubts he'd be back. He's got a very strong nose on him," Spurs forward Tim Duncan said. "I think it'd take him a second and he'd be right back.":lol:lol

Well, he needed a nosejob anyway. But that looks ugly :lol

obviously Manu once got punched in face with a fist thrown on his right side of nose, maybe another punch from the other side will fix it all IMHO.

[Cant_Be_Faded]

Duncan's comments in the post game were fucking hilarious.

Big strong nose

hahahaha

[Thomas]

Manu can wear his Batman Mask now...

[oh crap]

Well, he needed a nosejob anyway. But that looks ugly :lol

[Thomas]

I always wondered: how many times Manu did broke his nose?
Is this really the first time?
Ps I Had the same thing just as Manu, Another reason to like him

[Man In Black]

He's probably going to have black-eyes from the pooling and swelling.

His mask will have colored enhancements. Manu is fierce. It's not the first time Dirk has hurt Manu. It was Dirk's foot that Manu twisted his ankle on in the 2002 World Championships. The one where Manu played in the final on 1 foot and caused him to have a slow start to his rookie season.
I'm irked with Dirk, even though he didn't have malicious intentions. Elbows have always been used to fend off would-be tight defenders and the guys that get popped, are the guys that are willing to throw their nose in there!

With the mask that's soon to come...Manu Obi-Wan Ginobili has officially evolved into D'ARG Vader, Lord of the Sith.

[leemajors]

I need a black and silver mask

[rayray2k8]

need a pic of Manu in the batman mask!! :elephant

[milkyway21]

his soon-to-be born twin boys can no longer see his perfect nose >:(

[ManuSupraTurbo]

Damn Spurminator...that was funny! :blah

[ezau]

Question: Do you think Manu's game will be affected if he wears a mask? If yes, how much?

[Winehole23]

Very slightly on topic: how did the trainer stop the bleeding? Did Manu get his nose cauterized in the locker room?

(Disclosure: I had this done to me. As a young child, I was a chronic nosebleeder. Went to Dr. Folbre at the Nix. Same guy who took out my tonsils. I was maybe seven or eight years old. There was no anaesthetic involved. Oldest ear nose and throat guy in SA, I heard. He was pushing 90 and still practicing...


...you remember it when somebody goes way up your nose. Worked though.)
