"Retire, Manu!" They Said...

:lol

Manu shatting on Spurstalk, per par, tbh.

[davidbowie]

hehehehehehehe

2nd half meltdown inbound.

[BatManu20]

While I certainly agree, it's only halftime... but Pop's decision to start him actually turned out to be a brilliant decision. He's not having to try and carry the 2nd unit anymore. He's getting open looks cause of the attention on Tony, Timmy, and Danny. Aad he's just being more aggressive and making better decisions in general. We need Boris and Gary to step it up now. And God forbid Tiago Splitter do something positive..

[Kidd K]

Not really. When you look at a list of his stats, he hasn't posted back to back good games since. . .early March, and against two lottery teams.

One game doesn't make up for it, though it's a start. If Manu ALSO plays well in the 2nd half, and the next 1-2 games. . .then I will forgive his shitty postseason and shitty first 4 games of the Finals.

Not the worst Spur, but he's the Spurs who's played the furthest below his expectations.

[emanueldavidginobili]

It's all about confidence for Manu and when everyone in sports is talking shit about him you best believe he's going to shut the haters up

Spurstalk shitting on superjames1992 per par.

IMO we give Kidd K bold status and make sure superjames1992 remains a GNSF in perpetuity.

[rascal]

Not worth what they will be getting back from him for what it is going to cost .

[mrjap2x]

If being stupid is what it takes to for Manu to do that I'd take that any day.

[SA210]

Should have been starting his entire career tbh

[Cherry]

He is done, they said.

[Mal]

No, I said - One more godmode game, please

[SA210]

Fuck all you piece of shit haters. Told u Manu was not done.

[blkroadrunners]

Lol Spo putting Cole on Manu when you have Battier, Wade, James, or even Allen playing

Thats just begging Manu to go HAM.

[ernest787]

Man I'm so glad he's playing like this. I was really getting worried that he was done.

If the spurs hold on that just leaves Duncan to win one for the spurs

[Floyd Pacquiao]

never underestimate the heart of a champion

[ShooGazer]

I knew he had one of these games in him!

[Austin_Toros]

Perfect time for Manu to step up! We've been waiting patiently for this.

[therealtruth]

As good as starting Manu has looked, trying to outscore the Heat won't work in Miami. We've got to play better defense to win on the road.

[itsamanuthree]

Unbelivable how ungrateful and short-sighted spurs fans there are in this site, but maybe that's just what the avarage american fan is like... sad

Its not ungrateful...he had been playing awful. Hope the Spurs can finish strong.

[Godbama]

You'll Believe a Manu can Fly :flag:

[itsamanuthree]

Did I say he didn't?
How does that change the fact many fans here are ungrateful?

[SpurOutofTownFan]

I want to see all those fucking haters to come here and bend over and apologize. YOU MOTHERFUCKING RETARDS - YOU DONT KNOW SHIT ABOUT BASKETBALL.

[rascal]

He is done. Don't be fooled by this game. Two more years is too much for this guy who is going off the cliff as he approaches 40.

[SA210]

I want to see all those fucking haters to come here and bend over and apologize. YOU MOTHERFUCKING RETARDS - YOU DONT KNOW SHIT ABOUT BASKETBALL.

There have been greater Spurs, but never one as beloved as Manu Ginobili. This feels like a religious revival in San Antonio.

It must suck to be bitter all the time and to hate the team you claim to root for, tbh.

This is so true. And I'm so glad we got to see vintage Manu tonight. He needed it and the fans needed it. Great game all around!
