Manu Ginobili

[DAF86]

I decided to make a thread about this guy, the most accomplished basketball player of the last decade and a future 1st ballot hall of famer.

I Hope you enjoy it.

Is Dirk still crying? He's only got 1 ring, wtf is he happy about. Manu's rings take a shit on Dirk's 'he went to Jarod' ring.

Do you feel obliged, as a Mavs fan, to dedicate part of your existence to downplay all Spurs player's glorifications? Does that stem from Dirk's negative labels up to this recent championship? If so, you may need medical and psychiatric help.

[BRHornet45]

the balding dude comes off the bench and can make some fancy ass passes and hit a clutch shot every now and then and therefor in Spur fans eyes he is the greatest thing since sliced bread. Manu is a damn good bench player no doubt, but he is nothing more than a glorified mix of Jason Williams (White Chocolate) and Peja Stojakovic.

[GoodOdor]

There needs to be a separate hall of fame for euros. I mean basically bald spot will only get in because he got some euro mvp playing in some barn in greece.

That ain't right imho.

Im telling ya if Ginobili was second banana to Dirk, Dallas would have 3-4 titles easy

[dirk4mvp]

Manu is better than Jason Terry and Josh Howard. Thanks for sharing that.

[Barfunk]

Looking at his per 36 he would have had at least 6 seasons with 20+ per game.

He entered league at 25

3. Tim Duncan
4. David Robinson
5. Dirk Nowitzki
6. Kobe Bryant
7. Tony Parker
8. Hakeem
9. Charles Barkley
10. Shaq

Great video and great player

Not a personal attack but do you still think manu > Dirk ?
Now that Dirk won a title, finals MVP against great teams and without another all star in his team

Just wondering

[Lukor]

Spurfan always takes Ginobili's 27-30mpg numbers and acts like he could put that up if he was playing heavy minutes like a real superstar. Dude is injured enough as it is, he wouldnt even make it to the allstar break if he was playing more minutes.

[Bruce Wayne]

lol apparently 4>0 rings awesome one liner got BUMP all butthurt. Now he's mocking the Lefty Crew's joke delivery system. You might as well laugh now because it ain't gonna be so funny when one of us googles up a comeback and serves it right in your lap bro.

[GoodOdor]

Looking at his per 36 he would have had at least 6 seasons with 20+ per game.

First he would need to play over 30 minutes a game for a full season tbh.

But I agree that if he was the number 1 option, he would be basically dick jefferson before he came to the spurs.

Sounds about right.

[DUNCANownsKOBE]

:lol classic Manufan argument

":cry if you took the numbers he puts up in 25 minutes per game as the 6th man who mostly played against the other team's 2nd unit, and stretched those numbers out over 36 minutes against starting players, he'd have great stats :cry"

[pass1st]

Best 6th man of the decade, easily. Might go as far as to say in the top 5 foreign players in NBA history.

[DMC]

Manu has over achieved more than anyone in the league. For his level of skill, athleticism and such, he's gotten more accolades and awards than anyone I can think of. He's a decent outside shooter, his form isn't great to say the least. He plays on the edge of ball control all the time. Some times his antics cost the team as much as they help at other times.

What he has though you cannot teach. He has an insatiable desire to win, and he's absolutely fearless. I hear that a lot about this or that player, but there are only a handful of players that I can recall that have had that level of tenacity. Kobe used to have it, now he's more of a relic on the court. MJ had it, but he had the goods to go with it and wasn't out of control, he just did what he wanted and you couldn't do anything about it. A lot of other players knew their abilities and played within them with the occasional jaunt to a different realm. Ginobili does things that seem impossible, and that almost no one else would even attempt because there seems to be nothing in it (like swatting a bat or diving out of bounds for a loose ball when it's too late to make a difference). He has one gear only. That's why he's hurt all the time.

[DUNCANownsKOBE]

So Manu Ginobili is good because he swatted a bat?

[BRHornet45]

lol Spur fans are so damn ignorant when it comes to Manu. the dude is good and even very good, but come on people. wake the fuck up and take your homer glasses off.

[DMC]

So Manu Ginobili is good because he swatted a bat?
No, he makes stupid decisions, like swatting a bat or jumping out of bounds when he's not going to make a difference in the outcome of the game.

Wasn't that clear?

[frodo]

manu was da best 6th man of the past decade, he is the true #1 of the spurs right now and the spurs are better a team then dem mavs also. manu > dirk

Second best player of the dynasty run after TD?.... how many dynasty's have one HOF during the run? In that case, Duncan should be GOAT.

[dirk4mvp]

lol spurs being a dynasty

[DUNCANownsKOBE]

He wasn't even on one of the teams, he averaged like 7 points per game on another, and in 2007 Parker was just as much the #2 as he was.

He was only the clear cut 2nd option on 1 championship team. :lol Manufan revising history

[Proxy]

eh, just a matter of opinion. -/+ Admiral for Manu during the run.

I see your points and like I said, you're invalidating Manu's impact, while increasing Duncan's worth.... makes him the obvious player of the post MJ era if you want to downplay Manu.

[DUNCANownsKOBE]

yeah um I've always said Duncan is the best player post-MJ. It's not like I just started saying that to downplay Manu.

[Proxy]

http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/news/story?page=5-on-5-110712


Manu's NBA stats and accolades stack up favorably compared to Joe Dumars'. Would Ginobili get into an NBA-only HOF? Probably


Few players at that position were better than Manu in his prime, and all who were will be Hall of Famers, too.


What Ginobili's résumé lacks in longevity, it makes up for it with a string of incredible successes. From 2002-07, Ginobili became an All-Star, posted an average player efficiency rating of 21.1 and won three NBA titles...Throw that Ginobili did for the "euro step" in the NBA what Allen Iverson did for the crossover, and he certainly qualifies as a basketball luminary.

[Riddler]

He should get in for his flopping

buahahahaha, have you ever watched either player play?

compare Petrovic to Rudy Ferdandez... no where close to the NBA success Manu has had. Drazen spent his prime years in Europe.... and you're going to make that comparison? You never even saw him play. You're making some delusional assumptions there buddy.

There's a reason most people aren't going to know who the hell you're talking about, when you bring Drazen up.

[ElNono]

[DUNCANownsKOBE]

Tbh I saw that once brother ESPN special and decided to see if I could find footage of him. I got pretty addicted to watching as much Drazen Petrovich as possible, the dude was insnane.

[DUNCANownsKOBE]

compare Petrovic to Rudy Ferdandez
:lmao:lmao:lmao:lmao:lmao:lmao:lmao:lmao:lmao comparing Petrovic to someone who's barely an NBA player.

[DUNCANownsKOBE]

Just to be clear, the original statement was, "Best international player of all time", not "Best international NBA player of all time." Manu's NBA career >>> Drazen's, but I think Drazen was the better player, and especially better player at his peak. I've never seen someone who made scoring look so effortless, plus he has one of the best jumpers I've ever seen (no exaggeration).

[Amuseddaysleeper]

I haven't watched much footage of Drazen, though that 30 for 30 doc was great, I have to ask, aside from scoring, how do Manu and Drazen stack up in terms of defense/passing/rebounding etc?

[Axe Murderer]

defense/passing/rebounding etc?

defense-Manu
passing-Manu
rebounding-Petrovic

[DMC]

He should get in for his flopping
Wonder what's bigger, his flops your yours? Reset and try again. Maybe go with a name that you can support this time. Use Sheena Easton.

[DMC]

Why do I need to riddle when the retard in you is obvious?
Because it's what the Riddler does you lame fuck. You should be a backup for Lefty's Understudy. At least he does things that would reflect what Lefty's understudy might do at a troll level. You just occupy space.

Guitardude27, is that you?

Manu Ginobili is a highly accomplished and passionate player who is most definitely going to be inducted into the Hall of Fame, and rightfully so. Anyone who thinks differently is delusional. Case closed. Thanks for the great video and thread showing your respect and appreciation.....cool.

why was Drazen riding the bench in Portland? because he could not play a lick of defense. Soft ass overrated euro. The best thing to happen to his legacy is to get killed in an auto accident.
