this loss is on Ginobili

[hater]

-23 so far

:lmao

he's fucking finished

:pctoss

[romain.star]

This loss is on everyone.

Appart from Kawhi rebounding and Danny scoring, this was an horrible effort from everyone

And Neal should absolutely be DNP till the end of the series

playin manu is why we lost....

[stephen jackson]

neal at least hit a few shots manu played lie crap

[dbreiden83080]

The whole team quit in the 4th...

[Johnny RIngo]

Highest payed player on the Spurs at 14 million a year...is 35 years old and injury prone and STILL decides to play shitty, irrelevant international ball instead of resting his body over the summer.

[UZER]

I agree. Everyone played poor sans green, but Manu was out of control all night and also passing to guys in where there were getting trapped.

[romain.star]

playin manu is why we lost....

No one stepping-up is why the Spurs lost. This is a collective failure so there's no need to point out one particular player

[SanDiegoSpursFan]

The good thing is that the big 3 can't play much worse.

But Ginobili was fucking awful.

[Ibleedslvrnblk]

Manu was out of control. Duncan and Parker could not hit junk, not going to happen again. Next game

[Spurs7794]

Entire team was turning the ball over....but playing cautious. Ginobili was reckless.

[urunobili]

not happy with saying this 5 times and 3 different threads, hater had to open his own thread saying it :rolleyes

[hater]

Manu was shit the entire game but Heat run came in when he came in the 3rd. Him and Neal singlehandely gave Miami the first 10 point run. Then everything went to shit of course but Manu and Neal jumpstarted it.

He was godawful today.

[Keepin' it real]

This loss is on the Miami Heat. They're in the Finals for a reason. Take a pill and lay off your team.

[InK]

Everyone likes to diss Parker, but when Manu decides to play to play the worst game in his playoff career, we cant say anything :(

[hater]

huh Manu is the reason we lost

[Stabula]

There's unholy amounts of blame to go around believe me but the most blame goes squarely to Gregg Popovich with his nightmarish rotations. Neal scores one three pointer and Popovich decides to leave him in the whole game. Ridiculous small-ball lineups playing right into the hands of Miami. Not pounding the ball down low enough and give Miami Roy Hibbert flashbacks. You really fucked up tonight Popovich and people will really start to view you differently as a coach if you don't correct these senile rotations.

[hater]

thank you sir

[perfectdark]

parker had just as many turnovers...
I dont know how u can turn a 1point lead to a blowout in under 3 minutes

[HI-FI]

Highest payed player on the Spurs at 14 million a year...is 35 years old and injury prone and STILL decides to play shitty, irrelevant international ball instead of resting his body over the summer.

this.

i remember arguing with certain CoM members who thought he should get paid what Timmy is making. no fucking way.

Manu looked like he aged ten years and developed Parkinson's in between games 1 and 2. He needs to get his shit together fast. We don't need great games from him, we just don't need him blowing games like this.

[Capt Bringdown]

Where do the Spurs go from here? Manu sucks.
If he's making the bonehead plays, he needs to sit.

[Skull-1]

Ginobili handled the ball like a greased pig. Shamefully pathetic. I agree. Retire. My favorite player, too. Sad.


However, let us not forget that Duncan couldn't hit the ocean from a rowboat and the only things Parker hit were the defenders (in the legs for three or four turnovers).

This series is over. Miami in five or six. Good run.


Too bad we wasted Leonard's and Green's superhuman efforts.

[rascal]

This is why I don't want to see two more years of Manu at his asking price tag. His game is on the decline and it is going to get more ugly. Spurs need to add youth.

[Pero]

Except Green and I guess Kawhi the whole team sucked ass from the start. Heat were in control the whole game.

[timmy2003]

This is why I don't want to see two more years of Manu at his asking price tag. His game is on the decline and it is going to get more ugly. Spurs need to add youth.
If Manu is willing to take a massive pay cut and accept a much smaller role, then I'm fine with that.

It's unrealistic but I'd love to see Pierce on this team.

[Holden_Caulfield]

this loss is on the big three. just terrible performance.

[therealtruth]

TMac is the perfect guy to fill in when Manu isn't playing well.

[tim_duncan_fan]

He probably shouldn't play next game, certainly not at the same time Neal is on the court

[hater]

truthfully, his shot is gone. ONce a shot is gone from a player, he's handicapped. Plus he's old. That means he's slower than most players he faces. That only leaves his experience and smarts. That's very little. I love Manu but he's just a guy that comes to a gunfight with a little butter knife. it is what it is.

Spurs need to find a way to win without this guy.

[ElNono]

He didn't have a good game. Not many Spurs did.

You can't pin this game in one player though. What did us in was the defense was subpar after the 1st quarter. If you don't play defense, you can't win these games.

Onto game 3.

[hater]

TMac is the perfect guy to fill in when Manu isn't playing well.

:lmao

no

I don't think TMAC has scored a field goal this entire playoffs. dude sucks


only solution is to play Green and Kawhi 40+ minutes.

[hater]

He didn't have a good game. N

:lmao :lmao :lmao :lmao :lmao :lmao :lmao :lmao :lmao :lmao :lmao :lmao

Manu's is easily the worst Finals performance in history IMO

[Capt Bringdown]

"I have never seen Manu look so lost in a game."

Magic nailed it. Those turnovers were the turning point of the game, possibly the series.
And its ALL ON MANU

[ElNono]

:lmao :lmao :lmao :lmao :lmao :lmao :lmao :lmao :lmao :lmao :lmao :lmao

Manu's is easily the worst Finals performance in history IMO

Nope. There were worse Spurs out there. Not gonna name names, because this game was lost on the defensive end of the floor, so singling out guys doesn't really matter.

[sook]

Duncan was pretty bad to.

[Brunodf]

:lol Pop playing Tony/Neal/Ginobili lineups vs athletic Heat

[timtonymanu]

Everyone but Green and Leonard deserve to be shitted on.

[hater]

Nope. There were worse Spurs out there. Not gonna name names, because this game was lost on the defensive end of the floor, so singling out guys doesn't really matter.

Dude Manu ate some buttered chicken before the game and never cleaned his hands. Dude was fumbling the ball from the minute he entered the game. His D was shit too and his shot is the most godawful thing I ever seen. His decision were also complete shit. Dude was the worst basketball player I seen in a long time. I rather have Stephenson over Manu right now. that's how bad it is.

still, I am going to go and agree Neal and TMAC are worse. :( Spurs fucked IMO

[marinoman]

:lmao :lmao :lmao :lmao :lmao :lmao :lmao :lmao :lmao :lmao :lmao :lmao

Manu's is easily the worst Finals performance in history IMO

im sure thats not an overstatement, can u give me the rest of your top 5 worst performances?

He played like shit, no doubt, ive seen the spurs go through too much to panic now

[Spursmania]

I hate shitting on our players but Turnobili was the catalyst to Spurs'' demise this game. It was a domino effect.

[weebo]

This entire playoffs Manu hasn't been playing well. May be its time to give Manu limited minutes from here on out.

[hater]

btw I am still sticking to my prediction of Spurs in 7 :lol

[MannyIsGod]

Tonight was not on Manu, but that was one of the worst games I've ever seen Manu play. If this is what we can expect for Manu in these finals, I would have to think it would be a mistake to resign him to a large contract.

[Libri]

Manu was tuuuuurrrrible. He was all hyped up to start the game, out of control, tbh.

[Jahivah]

Manu has been bad all year but this performance tops them all. He practically was handing the ball to other team. Why Pop stuck with him beats me...

This one is on Manu's shoulders.

[TJastal]

Neal is the bigger problem IMO. Guy plays terrible defense and cannot handle the ball which puts huge pressure on Ginobili to take over point guard duties. Mills is a much better ballhandler and that's why the two of them post much better on court numbers together. Pop does not recognize this, only sees that Gary can take alot of shots.. that is all he sees. Same deal with Splitter, the dumb coach took 2+ years to recognize the need for size in the starting lineup.. only saw that Tiago wasn't producing huge numbers and gave up on him until it was painfully obvious to even the most casual fans.

I fully expect Pop to stick with Neal even though:

Mills = better ballhandling, equal scorer, quicker/better defender than Neal.
CoJo = better ballhandling, much better defender, decent scorer
McGrady = better ballhandling, bigger/better defender, can chuck shots all day if that's what you want (just like Neal).

[hater]

I hate shitting on our players but Turnobili was the catalyst to Spurs'' demise this game. It was a domino effect.

finally someone with a good basketball take. Basketball is a game of momentums. Manu and Neal killed us

[Dingle Barry]

I've never seen such a sudden collapse of athletic ability.

[elemento]

I love Manu but I can't defend him

The game was close until the end of the 3rd quarter, when Pop decided to take out Green and Leonard to put Ginobili and Neal. Two dumb TOs followed by two 3s from the Heat and they had a 10-point leading going to the 4th quarter. To me, it gave the Heat the momentum and the confidence that they needed to win the game.

Manu should try to do a few things in a simple way. He couldn't even initiate the offense without a TOs trying to dribble.

He has to play much better than this. It was one of the worst playoff game I've ever seen from Manu.

[MannyIsGod]

You have no option but to play Manu. You're not going to win a title without Manu doing something to help win you at least one or two games. Thats pretty much just a fact. So its not like there's a choice to be made about playing him. At this point we all have to hope that Manu has enough in the tank to give some good performances and at the LEAST he has to play well enough not to hurt the team out there.

[ElNono]

Dude Manu

I'm not even going to argue this. You can go ahead and pile on Manu. As I said, he had a bad game. Many Spurs did. We're going to need more from him and everyone to win at home.

[UZER]

The spurs had chances to put distance between them and the heat, but Manu came in and let the heat back in the game in the 3rd.

I know it's not all on one player, but man it's as close as it gets with Manu tonight.

[Splits]

There's unholy amounts of blame to go around believe me but the most blame goes squarely to Gregg Popovich with his nightmarish rotations.

Id be okay if Pop fined players for dribbling behind their backs
Its Manu, Neal and Greens turnover of choice
The patented Gary Neal run in the corner just to pick up his dribble is another one i could use less of

dude by saying Manu had a "bad" game you just prove yourself to be the biggest Manu homer in history

Manu had a historic horrific game. And he is the reason Heat got the momentum in the 3rd. I you cannot see that, then you need some counseling and psychological help IMO

Cute yet nonsensical. I believe you're implying I'm participating in a mind-set forumites here refer to as "cliff-jumping" which is not what I'm doing. I still think the Spurs will win in 6 or 7 but certainly not if Popovich doesn't allow himself the decisions he's been making. That's a fair point undeserving of your idiocy.

[TheGreatYacht]

Manu was terrible on handling the ball today. The man looked like he needed to be on a cane out there. This game looked like he completely lost all of his ball handling skill. He did a decent job on Dwayne Wade but he did leave Mike Miller and Ray Allen open at times. Another thing that pissed me off about Manu was those canon ball passes that he would do after being double teamed off a pick n roll. Manu looked like an old man today.

[hater]

Argentinosaurus :lol

[ElNono]

:lol that makes no sense... I'm telling you he had a bad game. I'm not making any excuses for him.

I'm not going to argue what 'levels of bad' or where it 'ranks on bad'. It's silly. He contributed to this loss, and so did many other Spurs.

We can keep trying to find the scapegoat, or we can just plain state what happened: our guys didn't play well, didn't defend the way that's conducive to win games against the champ.

All your piling up doesn't matter. He's an integral part and reason of why we're in the Finals in the first place. He needs to play better and so do all the other guys. Bottom line.

Still bro, Spurs in 7 I hope :tu

WTF was up with his dribbling. Looked like a stumbling drunk out there tonight. Ease up on the bars brah.

[Johnny RIngo]

Nope. There were worse Spurs out there. Not gonna name names, because this game was lost on the defensive end of the floor, so singling out guys doesn't really matter.

Parker and Duncan played bad too but they've carried us this season AND post-season. Ginobili's only had like four good games in the entire playoffs and has been terrible all year. 35 year old, injury-prone players shouldn't be playing international basketball in the summer.

[ShoogarBear]

Plenty of blame to go around to everyone except Green (did I just say that?).

Still, Manu is the one guy who has been MIA (no pun) for the majority of the playoffs.

[Southwest Texas Fan]

Manu needs to play. The team won't win with him sitting on the bench. He had a terrible game but to say don't play him is really not an option.

[apalisoc_9]

Hater can be such a dummy a times tbh.

Ginobili was terrible tonight. Parker Was terrible tonight. Duncan was awful.

Infact anyone not named Kawhi and Danny was awful.

[therealtruth]

:lmao

no

I don't think TMAC has scored a field goal this entire playoffs. dude sucks


only solution is to play Green and Kawhi 40+ minutes.

I don't think TMac needs to score. He just needs to help facilitate the offense when the ball is too sticky.

[still.focused]

Tim and Tony didnt play well
Manu actually played bad

[therealtruth]

I guess we can give up on the hope that Manu was saving himself for the Finals.

[ALVAREZ6]

This loss isn't on any 1 player. The whole team minus Green and Leonard came to play like pussies who haven't been here before.


Tonight was not on Manu, but that was one of the worst games I've ever seen Manu play. If this is what we can expect for Manu in these finals, I would have to think it would be a mistake to resign him to a large contract.

I have to think resigning Manu to a large contract would be a mistake regardless of anything. He couldn't maintain a high level of play for many minutes and for the majority of a season for nearly his whole career, and especially at this age. His body simply can't do what it used to. I'm surprised in how shitty his dribbling was tonight though, that was terrible.

[DarrinS]

Thread started by someone who said Duncan was finished, so consider the source.

[timvp]

I trust Ginobili more at home at this point in his career, tbh. He pretty much sucked against the Thunder last year on the road but did well at home. Let's hope for similar transformation this season against an elite team.

[GSH]

I said it in another thread that got buried, but I can tell you a lot of what happened to Manu. Spoelstra told his guys not to bite on Manu's pump fakes... ever. And they didn't.

Like it or not, Manu has lost some foot speed. He uses that fake to get guys off their feet, and then he blows around them. The Miami defenders are just too quick for him to blow around consistently, if they ignore the pump fake and keep their feet. When they stay down, Manu can't penetrate. And when he can't penetrate, he's just another guy out on the perimeter. It's a problem.

[UZER]

The worse Manu plays, the worse Manu plays. He has no inhibitions to check himself.

[Capt Bringdown]

What's obvious to everyone other than Manu is that he's lost a step. Or two. So why doesn't he accept his limits?
That's what good players do as they age.
He still thinks he's going to make the cover of Sports Illustrated.
There's no excuse for his selfish, terrible play.

[ElNono]

Some quotes from him after Game 2:

- "I'm heading back home disappointed. I lost a Finals game, I'm gonna watch tape and learn from the mistakes"

- "They just ran over us from the 3rd quarter on. We knew it could happen, they have runs like that"

- "I was never comfortable. Especially after they called that third foul on me"

Couldn't agree more.

Duncan was really off as well. Parker was falling everywhere...

Green and Leonard provided enough to keep us close first half. So that's encouraging.

This team can handle a blowout I'd like to think. Most fans can't.

lets home timvp is right and Manu has 1 hopefully 2 more NBA quality games left on him :(

[SpurOutofTownFan]

-23 so far

:lmao

he's fucking finished

:pctoss

Yo fucking retardo. Let me tell you something. I don't understand why people can't objectively criticize a player without hating on him.

You and the other idiots who come out of a hole every time Manu has a bad game are just not very good Spurs' fans. What will happen if he does have a great Game 3? are you going to come out here and bend over? Please do that.

I don't understand the need for hating on the guy - you can say he was sloppy tonight, you can say he shot some bricks, etc - but calling this game on Manu is beyond ridiculous and it's an over-exaggeration on what really happened.

Please don't use a bad game to hate on the guy - YOU DONT KNOW SHIT ABOUT BB.

[kaji157]

yeah, a guy who played 17 minutes lost a 48 minutes game.

Please learn your basketball.

He didn´t play well but by no means the Spurs would have won if Manu played better. The team sucked as a whole. Green played well on offense and Kwami in the rebounding department. Those are the only bright spots.

Other than that.

Manu and Tony looked lost.

Duncan looked unwilling to attack the block.

Kwami was out of control on offense (he should never ever jack up 12 shots in 3 quarters)

Green was horrible on defense.

Tiago played like he is 6 foot tall.

Neal....

[Killakobe81]

not only was his ball handling poor, but his passes were so wild he forced team-mates to have to pass up open looks. By passing the nall high and off target Heat defenders were allowed to rotate in time and force Shooters off the 3pt line ...

[Killakobe81]

Never seen Manu play that badly in a big game ...

[UZER]

not only was his ball handling poor, but his passes were so wild he forced team-mates to have to pass up open looks. By passing the nall high and off target Heat defenders were allowed to rotate in time and force Shooters off the 3pt line ...

Yeah, and he passed to guys way in the corner where two defenders were ready to pounce and trap. Just one of the worst games I've ever seen him play.

[perfectdark]

problem is with this Miami defense you have to force a lot of plays
Ginobili used to be good at running down the clock and making his layups.
this ability seems to be long gone now
I don't see him getting back to his old level
play leonard instead

[Manutrix]

Ginobili handled the ball like a greased pig. Shamefully pathetic. I agree. Retire. My favorite player, too. Sad.


However, let us not forget that Duncan couldn't hit the ocean from a rowboat and the only things Parker hit were the defenders (in the legs for three or four turnovers).

This series is over. Miami in five or six. Good run.


Too bad we wasted Leonard's and Green's superhuman efforts.

Retire my ass. You don't want Ginobili on your team? Fine, but let him go somewhere else! Or are you scared he might prove you wrong?

Btw, series is not over.

[Budkin]

"I have never seen Manu look so lost in a game."

Magic nailed it. Those turnovers were the turning point of the game, possibly the series.
And its ALL ON MANU

The series??? :lmao It's 1-1 and the next 3 games are at home. He won't play that bad again... not at home.

[BatManu20]

The whole team sucked outside of Danny. Seriously, everyone.. Can;t blame one person, even as bad as Manu was.

[slick'81]

He was horrible turnobili in full form

[TheGreatYacht]

I will give you my take and I'll start by criticizing our big 3. Tim Duncan was pathetic on defense. Early on he was extending outside trying to block jumpers instead of staying on the paint and protect the rim. I don't know how the hell he had 11 rebounds because Chris Bosch absolutely outplayed him on those offensive boards. Timmy does not box out his man after we get a defensive stop. Duncan had ZERO blocks. When Duncan posts up, instead of using brute force or using foot work to get to the rim, he does some tough fade away shots. This is probably the worst playoff game that Duncan has had this year. Duncan looked old tonight.

Manu was terrible on handling the ball. The man looked like he needed to be on a cane out there. This game looked like he completely lost all of his ball handling skills. He did a decent job on Dwayne Wade but he did leave Mike Miller and Ray Allen open at times. Another thing that pissed me off about Manu was those canon ball passes that he would do after being double teamed off a pick n roll. Manu looked like an old man today.

Tony was non-existent for the most part. Early on he had his couple of moments but for the most part he looked like the TP from the last month of the regular season. Seems to me like he completely gave up on the pick n rolls because of the way the Heat defend it. I give the Heat some credit for mixing their pick n roll defense and also mixing up their defense on Parker. Parker needs to move around and try to play off the ball. After being double teamed and passing up the ball, he just stays stationary on the perimter spectating his teammates (Gary Neal trying to play point guard). Tony is going to have to try to be more effective off the ball.

TIAGO SPLITTER. He played 22 minutes and one fu**ing rebound. Are you fu**ing kidding me?

I give props to Danny Green and Gary Neal. They played well offensively. Khawi Leonard played pretty good defense on Lebron James. On the other hand perimeter defense is another story. Everyone kept leaving Mike Miller and Ray Allen open for three's. Credit Lebron for collapsing our defense. Mario Chalmers had the game of his career.

The officiating was so blatantly one-sided. We got no calls at all. I can't blame the officiating today because of the Spurs terrible defense.

[DPG21920]

Unfortunately, Spurs don't need Manu to "contribute in other ways..". They need him to be a part of a big 3 consistently in all areas.

[hommeaetage]

I love Manu but I can't defend him

The game was close until the end of the 3rd quarter, when Pop decided to take out Green and Leonard to put Ginobili and Neal. Two dumb TOs followed by two 3s from the Heat and they had a 10-point leading going to the 4th quarter. To me, it gave the Heat the momentum and the confidence that they needed to win the game.

Manu should try to do a few things in a simple way. He couldn't even initiate the offense without a TOs trying to dribble.

He has to play much better than this. It was one of the worst playoff game I've ever seen from Manu.

This right there, is when the game was lost. Sure they weren't playing well as a team, and there's plenty of blame to go around. But as bad as they were playing, they were right there with Miami and had them on the ropes. As soon as Neal and Manu came in, Miami started their run. Manu was awful tonight, and this is one of them games where the coach should have ridden the "hot hand" in Danny Green

I don't know. I think as long as Manu is some kind of Tony Allen, Battier(prime) type spurs should be ok. Problem is he was so attrocious in game 2, he was probably the 4th or 5th best Heat player out there. Manu just needs to at least be 50% the prime Ginobili for the Spurs to be successful. Otherwise, sit his ass down.

[hater]

I don't really like Manu blaming the fouls on his play. He sucked from minute 1. Face reality and face the facts, otherwise GTFO

[senorglory]

dang great game by Green only to be blown out. Ginobili stunk it up.. like he was drunk or something.

Hahaha. Now I feel better, thanks. I'm gonna think that from now on, "oh, there goes drunk Ginobili again."

[Baseline]

Manu played like he had just come from Happy Hour and threw on a uniform. It really defied reality. The good news is, I don't think our Big Three can play any worse than this.

[HI-FI]

Stephen a smith was pretty hilarious and accurate about the Spurs afterward, saying they need to put out an APB on Manu's game. there were bad performances all around, but Manu's performance was indescribably shitty. Not sure what happened between game 1 and 2, but there's no excuse for that. I agree that Pop should not pair up him and Neal.

[2centsworth]

I don't really like Manu blaming the fouls on his play. He sucked from minute 1. Face reality and face the facts, otherwise GTFO

he was good for about a minute. When he first came in and attacked the basket for a layup and when he hit a 3. the rest was F-.

[MilesTeg]

oO I'm surprised to see such a consensus. I need to re-watch the game, I thought he was alright for the most part.

[stelleroseSPURS]

Why is everyone blaming on Manu? Everyone did bad except for green. They needed this lost so that they can adjust on what the heat can do. Trust in Pop. That was prolly why he pulled out the role players when there was still 7mins left. He knew they didn't deserve to win this game and try to encourage the spurs to bounce back this tue.

[InK]

I rather have Stephenson over Manu right now. that's how bad it is.



:lol Thats a pretty accurate description.

Hopefully Pop learns. He learned from benching Splitter in game 4 of the Warriors series.

Manu has been a turnover machine for a while. He makes some ridiculous plays sometimes but overall he probably does more harm.

[SpurYank]

What will all you haters say when he has a game like last Thursday? You'd think the Spurs played this game by themselves. We are playing against the defending champs, aren't we? All of you will eat your words before this s over. Is the word I'm looking for "Two-faced?"

[Skull-1]

Retire my ass. You don't want Ginobili on your team? Fine, but let him go somewhere else! Or are you scared he might prove you wrong?

Btw, series is not over.

He can't shoot any more. His pump fake is a joke, and painful to watch. He won't play within himself. My gawd the man can't even dribble. Bottom line is Ginobili has been on a downward trajectory for awhile, and unlike Tim-meh, he can't lose a bunch of weight and get better.

The only thing good about Manu tonight was his interview where he mimicked Tim's stone face (when asked how Duncan would respond if they built a statue of him).

I remember against the Thunder when Manu short jumped a one man fast break slam. I thought, it was just conditioning and would improve. No such luck.

Ginobili is done barring some serious off season miracle.

[Raven]

the whole big 3 sucked badly and for no real reason. Ginobili was especially terrible, but tony had 5 TOs.. they need to get their shit together.

[OldSilentHill]

You have no option but to play Manu. You're not going to win a title without Manu doing something to help win you at least one or two games. Thats pretty much just a fact. So its not like there's a choice to be made about playing him. At this point we all have to hope that Manu has enough in the tank to give some good performances and at the LEAST he has to play well enough not to hurt the team out there.

This.

[Johnny RIngo]

I said it in another thread that got buried, but I can tell you a lot of what happened to Manu. Spoelstra told his guys not to bite on Manu's pump fakes... ever. And they didn't.

Like it or not, Manu has lost some foot speed. He uses that fake to get guys off their feet, and then he blows around them. The Miami defenders are just too quick for him to blow around consistently, if they ignore the pump fake and keep their feet. When they stay down, Manu can't penetrate. And when he can't penetrate, he's just another guy out on the perimeter. It's a problem.

Sad thing is even when Manu does penetrate he ends up blowing the layup half the time. Ray Allen is nearly 40 and he looks like a more a reliable player than Ginobili these days.

[vanvannen]

It concerned me to read today that he was blaming the big 3 saying they played like shit. YOU played like shit. Sure, Tim and Tony where below average, but Manu was absolutely horrendous.
Some people were wondering if he was done or if he was saving for the finals. I guess the answer is pretty clear, two games into the Finals he is still sucking monkey balls.

Fucking Manu and Splitter/Duncan not taking advantage of the mismatches are the main reason why the game was lost. (and Neal not being able to guard my grandma)

[Mouth is Bleeding]

Every stat. Every fact says you're wrong, but yeah never stop being an idiot ftw...

Don't try to put this all on Manu, yes he was bad but he was not the only one, it was a team loss. Manu has meant so much to the organization and some of you guys are ready to throw the baby out with the bath water. Had the other guys stepped up, his miscues wouldn't have been so magnified.

[vanvannen]

Saying Manu sucked (which is what the majority of the people are saying) is not trolling, it is just the honest truth.

If you are referring to the ones saying he should be benched for the rest of the series or traded or banned for life from Texas, then I agree.

Miscue? A miscue is like what he did on the corner inbounds pass to Tim. Manu went to the basket when Duncan was expecting him to stay in the corner. That's a miscue.


What we got instead was a stumbling, staggering drunkard impersonator who couldn't hold onto the ball. I have never seen Manu dribble that poorly....and to lose it what, four times? That was about a sixteen point swing of lunacy by him. Miscue? That's not even close.



This was epic failure. This makes the whole stumbling-in-the-outfield by Willie Mays mythology look darned tame by comparison.

You would get banned tbh, if you think Manu has been effective

[sook]

I like Manu but good god that was bad yesterday. It was almost like a JV kid trying to play varsity, I hope he was just drunk with the way he was stumbling and turning the ball over.

[kobexxx]

Heat is not Grizzlies who are slow and methodical and no fast hands. Manu's style best suits Heat for turn-overs since Heat has fast hands and once Manu starts his ziggy zaggy drives or starts to dribble around, its like saying come get me... and off the heat goes for a dunk on the other end. I guess party is over now for Spurs. this line-up will never get over the hump unless an athletic superstar is added. Else be happy with falling short in the finals everytime...

Man..I haven't posted on this site for a while. I just had to come on and say... WTF Ginobli? I hate to say it but that has to be the worst performance I've seen from him ever. And he has had some stinkers this year.

I think most of the blame has to go to Pop for playing him as many minutes as he did yesterday. It was apparent he wasn't going to get any better.

I hope they can right the ship for Game 3. The Spurs need to get back to moving the ball. When they move the ball they play great! Then for some reason they get stagnate... don't pass... and leads vanish. SMH

[Budkin]

Definitely the worst Manu performance ever. It was like he was drugged or something... couldn't dribble, couldn't pass. Maybe Miami spiked his Gatorade because I just don't understand.

Ginobili's ball handling is failing him with age.. which is to be expected for a 6'6" shooting guard. Pop needs to recognize this and get better ballhandlers in the game with him to relieve some of the pressure he's feeling. Somebody please tell Pop that Neal fails to qualify in this regard.

Manu knows he contributed to the defeat, he has the heart of a lion, he will totally redeem himself tomorrow, at which point I expect this thread to be relegated to a mere footnote

Fisher doesn't seem to have trouble handling the ball and he's a couple years older. I understand quickness and endurance but ball handling should not be an issue with age.

[Leetonidas]

Ginobili handled the ball like a greased pig. Shamefully pathetic. I agree. Retire. My favorite player, too. Sad.


However, let us not forget that Duncan couldn't hit the ocean from a rowboat and the only things Parker hit were the defenders (in the legs for three or four turnovers).

This series is over. Miami in five or six. Good run.


Too bad we wasted Leonard's and Green's superhuman efforts.

fucking faggot, don't let me see you celebrating if the spurs win

[Brazil]

First of all this loss is more on heat playing great finally than Ginobili, they triggered all the right buttons to derail the Spurs and it worked and Lebron played an amazingly clever game.

Regarding the Spurs, unless I forgot something, that was the worst PO game on Manu's career tbh. Tim sucked major ass this game too in O but also in D. Parker had a very poor game, he is the leader of the team so he is the one to blame if we want to find a scapegoat to loose by 20 points. What I hated from him during this game is that he begun soon to be frustrated by the refs and couldn't get over it during the whole game. This is not what you expect from your leader: you are in Miami game 2 of the finals you have to be prepared to not receive a call every freaking minute because you fell down alone tripping on your own foot. They didn't blow the whistles so stfu, stay focus, stop complaining and play the game.
Very disappointing performance.

brazil with a truth bomb. I know TP is your boy so I'll be diplomatic, but he had a bad game. Manu's was legendary bad because he looked like an old drunk Italian out there. I noticed ElNono has been quiet so he isn't even able to spin this. But Nono mentioned how everyone stunk, and rewatching it, he's right, particularly with TP. i think we were so amazed after his late game 1 heroics that we didn't realize how things devolved with him in the early 4th quarter. Those Lebron screens on Parker were brutal, and then as per par with Parker, the more frustrated he gets the more he starts forcing shit.

you are right about Parker getting pissy, which is one of my many complaints. It's why he'll never be a leader like Duncan in my eyes, he gets frustrated too easily out there. But that doesn't mean Parker is average, far from it. He's just got certain weaknesses that need to be addressed and everyone needs to step up big time.

If we're to win this, we will need a Detroit '04 type synergy imho.

[montgod]

I agree with others, this loss is on everyone. Duncan needs to get back to taking better shots and abusing Haslem/Anderson if they are guarding him. Tony and Manu have to take better care of ball and watch errant lazy passes. Neal and Manu need to take better higher percentage shots as well. offense needs to stay in game and pay attention... shot clock violations are uncalled for and show loss of focus. An the defense has to step up on the outside shooters more than trying to double Lebron IMO.

[spursince#99]

This loss is on the Big 3. Good God they were awful as shit the entire game. Our role players could only carry us for so long.

The Grizzlies were one of the bests at forcing turnovers and we starved them that way. The Mavs had the same problem in '11. If the Spurs are going to have turnovers they can't afford live ball turnovers.

[TD 21]

It's not all on him, obviously and his hamstring clearly isn't 100%, but he also just doesn't seem to be as driven as he once was. Duncan and Parker seem determined to get this done and he almost seems content to be here and resigned to losing.

When Parker said before the series that he thought he was saving his best for last, really what he was saying was, he needs more help if they're going to get this done. Clearly, that didn't work. So at least one of Parker, Duncan pr Pop needs to flat out tell him that he needs to start playing with reckless abandon, whether it leads to injury or not, because they're not winning this with the way he's playing right now anyway.

But I'm not a homer, I root for the Spurs since the twin towers not just a player, I was obviously delighted to see a Frenchie drafted and I'm estonished by his dedication and his desire to progress every single year, u have to respect that. He led the spurs this far now he has to deliver I'm not asking for 20 pts and 7 assists every game but he needs to show the way, fights adversity and takes the hits and the non calls like a leader. He cannot let external stuff pollute his focus.

to be fair, he progressed a lot on that aspect too and it's quite rare now when he has this kind of game. Now for the game 3 he needs to stay in his game, play, forget his last t/o or a missed call and play.

if there's certain things I notice about TP over the years is he gets predictable when frustrated. I think it begins, like you said, with the no calls. If he is getting hit and refs are letting it slide, he always shows his anger. Then he starts flopping more and penetrating more, to the detriment of open guys, to force the issue. In the process of this heroball, he's missed out on several important posessions where he could've hit the open man. This is what separates TP from legendary PGs, they seem to know how to counter things, whereas TP will keep forcing shit. When he isnt forcing shit and playing balanced, he's incroyable as you would say. He definitely deserves respect for evolving as a player.

Ultimately it's on Pop, he knows the strength and limitations of everyone so he'll have to make the whole better than the parts. I can't imagine the team, especially the big 3, playing that bad the rest of this series. I think they knew they had very little chances of winning game 2 even if playing very well.

Manu was terrible, and sometimes he is just plain reckless. Spurs can beat the Heat just playing their game, with tough defense, TP's PNR, guys hitting open shots, Timmy pounding their smaller bigs. The only positive thing in getting blown-up should make Spurs focus more and not be complacent. Stay hungry Spurs.

Do you French kiss yo mama with that mouth? It must suck to have such a huge chip on your shoulder. Not being able to pass fifth grade as an adult will do that to a person.

I haven't quit on my team. I am just not delusional. I will watch the games and hope we pull it off, but just like watching "United 93", you know how it will end. And Manu really sucks. I can't believe I am saying it. The only good part of his game Sunday was his impression of Tim.
you said it was over after 1 loss you piece of shit faggot quitter. that's quitting.

faggot

[Skull-1]

you said it was over after 1 loss you piece of shit faggot quitter. that's quitting.faggotIt IS over. You're just too stupid to see it. You don't have the b*lls to speak to me that way face to face, but you obviously have some Homoerotic fixation with me. Sorry, sister, I only date girls. Oh, wait. You and Brazil are obviously women.... Hope you are sexier than your trolling. LOL!

I noticed ElNono has been quiet so he isn't even able to spin this. But Nono mentioned how everyone stunk, and rewatching it, he's right, particularly with TP.

I've been busy, but I didn't think I needed to add much more than what I already said in this thread. When you get into the 'levels of bad' arguments, you're wasting your time, tbh...

Some more translated quotes from Manu (this was right after Game 2):

- "If us three (Tony, Tim, Manu) don't play better, we don't have a chance"

- "We didn't play well. I don't think they changed their gameplan much. We're who we are, and so are they"

- "We weren't focused enough. I committed 3 fouls in a row, and then you start fighting with yourself, the refs, and you lose focus"

- "Before coming to Miami you'd think that if you take a game you should be happy, and it's true, but nobody likes to play like we did tonight. We had the first game, so we wanted to win the second. Nobody is happy playing like this and it's worrisome. Disappointed and worried, that's how I feel right now"

- "We were pretty weak. In the first game we were quicker, stingier and solid. We were passive today and we suffered the other's team aggression. The biggest issue was offense, but in the second half they attacked us really well"

[Brazil]

Let's see.

- Not fat.

- Not Mexican (have a lot of Mexican friends though, so watch it).

- Never threatened anyone. I am calling you out, however, to see what you'll say in person. Probably, "Nice to meet you, sir."

- My Mexican friends call me Preacher. You can call me, "Sir."

- You, are a complete tool.

End of lesson.

:lol faggot
:lol quitter
:lol new threats on internet message board

Too much "we"and not enough "I", frankly.

:cry :cry :cry :cry

now kindly shut the fuck up and leave ST you quitting faggot

[ohmwrecker]

Duncan and Parker sucked too. Not gonna win those. You can't put the blame on one player. This thread is dumb.

[hater]

well the good news is Manu cannot possibly play any worse than game 2. No human being can. Rock bottom IMO

[Obstructed_View]

No, but maybe if he could dribble the ball we would have been up enough that the run wouldn't have snowballed into historic territory....

You should explain the scenarios where a 33-5 run doesn't snowball into history.

[ErnestLynch]

Manu is so careless with the ball. When you make a bad pass, that the guy can barely handle and he turns it over, that turnover is on Manu. But it doesn't show up on the stats. HE MUST play within himself, or he is a detriment offensively. Our trouble is, overall, that if point guards were what won you NBA titles, then C3P0 would have several. BIG MEN win titles. Centers, power forwards.

Storms a brewing ,game3 is on the horizon

Oh, I don't know, maybe being up 16 instead of one when the run starts. Then maybe the run never even gets going in the first place....

Good points. Particularly the wild pass part.

Manu needs to facilitate...scoring enough to keep the defense honest. He can't subsist on reputation any more...

[therealtruth]

Manu bounced back when he had a bad game in '07 Finals. Unfortunately that was a long time ago.

[hater]

maybe Manu was distracted by this
