do manutards seriously think manu turned the corner with 2 preseason games?

[hater]

:lmao unbelievable if true. After the worst playoffs Finals performance in history and blatantly joining.the Heat team midseries. Are manutards seriously ready to turn the blind eye to all that just because of 2 good preseason outings vs. a bunch of scrubs? :lol

according to the Book of Manu.WHICH IS THE ONLY BOOK accepted by the Church of Manu, Manu played so so in the Finals :lmao

[look_at_g_shred]

I agree with u. Although I'm still pulling for him to at least be effective enough for us to win games.

[Proxy]

At the very least it shows a lack of apathy on his part... something that a few people tried to imply he had this summer.

[N0 LyF3 ScRuB]

I think hater needs to find a lady mate lol

we don't win three titles without ginobili, PERIOD.

[siraulo23]

Yes lol

[K-State Spur]

I think that, while his athleticism will continue to decline, Manu's jump-shooting will end up closer to norm levels vs. last year.

We'll probably never see 2012 version again, but I think he could rebound a bit from the 2013 Finals version.

8 turnovers are 8 turnovers man, we could use those balls to make some points and steal the damn game, dont turn around blaming others, 9 horrible points and a critical free throw that fail as a cheap condom is enough to make manure the scapegoat.

I always laugh my ass of when someone says they only got so and so points off those TO's, first it was 8 or so and now it's only 5 pts, but 8 TO's, one less and we win the damn game! Just one more point and we win in Regulation, whether they score or not off those TO's is irrelevant when it cost us a shot at scoring and putting the game away. Early 4th those TO's killed us, period.

Hope, I don't seeing anyone hoping on Manu to lead the Spurs to a title this year. Dude everyone knows Duncan is the anchor for this team. And Parker is the engine that run the ship.

But people know and have witness that Manu is an X-factor type of player. He can change a whole series, he just happen to go the wrong way this time around. Just let the season play itself out first before saying anyone's done. I remember people saying Duncan was no longer Dominant after his string of injuries. Last year, he arguably was the best bigman in the NBA yet again.

[Cowboys_Wear_Spurs]

6-23, Pop pulling Duncan, Manu's 8 TO, Manu and Kwahi both missing a FT, Neal leaving Miller wipe open for a 3, etc. etc. There was alot of things that cost the Spurs game 6. IMO, it comes down to the last plays, and Pop pulling your best rebounder in franchise history and 3rd best rebounder in NBA playoff history off the floor in the last two possessions was the final nails in the coffin.

You are right, but some people tries to twist reality talking about parallel universes and chances, I waited 7 years for another finals run hoping a championship based on facts like SPURS NEVER EVER LOSS FINALS, or the entire spurs team saying WE NEED A HEALTHY MANU TO WIN IT ALL, and then when the finals come after so many time look what healthy manu did, what a clown.

Neither Duncan, or TP or Kawhi joined the Heat in game 6. Yes they played poorly. But we are talking about 8 turnovers. 3 in critical last seconds of the game!

word on the street after that was that Manu potentially got paid for that game 6 by the Heat organization and Pat Ryley. That's how bad it was.

again, there are bad games and historically monumental attrocious career altering games. You can't seriously compare Duncan/Parker/Kawhi's game 6 faults with the Guiness Book Record Failure of Manu's game 6. Manu demolished everything he accomplished in that game 6. He will be remembered as Ocho, the one who handed Lebron #2

You are correct. But he redeemed himself in the same game with 5 staright points in the final minute for a 5 point lead including a 3 over lebron from the wing, not even his spot.

Despite Manus horrendous play and turnovers, all wouldve been forgiven for if he just woulve hit that free throw. But nooooo, he couldnt even do that!

[trypldubl]

True True

[N0 LyF3 ScRuB]

What does that have to do with now? That's your comeback for everything. If you want to go that route then manu costs the spurs 2 titles already. With the Dirk foul and 6.

The Dirk foul did not cause them the title, and he did not cause the game six loss.

It's really hypocritical how you use the "what have you done for me now" tactic, yet you completely ignore Leonard's botched free throw, as well as Pop's completely idiotic move to take Duncan out (did he not watch the Pacers/Heat game one?).

The fact is, despite the turnovers, we could have won that game. But in the time Manu shot the free throw, we botched two rebounds, and another free throw.

This is a team game. Even if Ginobili DID "cost" you spoiled fans two titles, what part of "we wouldn't have won three" wouldn't you understand?

That's the problem with Spurs fans nowadays. This guy is a pioneer for European basketball and their players. He was supposed to be our 57th pick (garbage second round pick to never play for us) and he turned into one of the best damn shooting guards, if not the best, of the decade. Imagine the stats he could have pulled if he left San Antonio.

But he didn't.

He played a sixth man role for his career humbly. He's acknowledged that as long as Tim Duncan plays beside him, they will always win the title. How could you even dislike this guy? He was the one in game seven putting his heart and soul into the entire game, while Danny Green shot 1-17, while Tony Parker shit the bed due to injury. He pulled 18 points and 5 assists in game seven, including an incredibly clutch step-back three and layup. But noone seems to notice that.

You don't think those "won three titles for us" matters now, but I guarantee you would if you never would have won those titles. I also guarantee you cared when it occurred.

[N0 LyF3 ScRuB]

Furthermore, for you ignorant fans that state he cost us the title that year in 06', did you forget we were down by 14 at half before Manu scored 21 second half points to bring us back in the game? Seems like that part tends to get left out.

[trypldubl]

one more thing to add

IMO Manu's game 6 Finals 8 turnovers are somewhat equivalent to a soccer player scoring 2 own goals in a World Cup Semi Final or Final. By Own goals I mean scoring 2 goals in your own net.

but that's just me IMO :lol

Let's just say thank God Pablo Escobar is already dead and was not born in San Antonio :wow

Great players have the ability to come back. We see it with Timmy. I don't see why we won't with Manu. Not that they are on the same level, Timmy is one of the greatest of all time, but DRob and Sean were able to extend their careers and be productive after they declined. Manu should be able to also.

We won one before him, lost two because of him, and could have arguably won the other three without him. That's six. Put down the crack pipe.

[DeadlyDynasty]

You're a FUCKING idiot! Holy fuck! You do realize that the Spurs could've at least scored ONE point off those EIGHT TURNOVERS?!! 8 lost opportunities to score just one point and secure Game 6. But, that balding idiot cost us a championship for the 3rd time
:lolgreat avatar...so true

yeah. crack pipe.
btw. what two titels? I counted one single final series Spurs ever lost.
and yes, sure. with Manu they win 3. without Manu the Spurs become a dynasty like the MJ Bulls and win 6.
there are about 3 or 4 people in the world of basketball who would share this estimation. they post here.
some millions will just rofl.
crack pipe. oh well.

He cost us 2006 and 2013. Probably another in between with his inconsistent health record. We need someone not made of glass...

[rascal]

I think hater needs to find a lady mate lol

we don't win three titles without ginobili, PERIOD.

Sure they do. Maybe even more for what they are paying him since the last title. That money could go to someone who could have helped them more, Manu has been injured or cost titles since the last title.

Like who? Manu took pay cuts his whole career until now. He is a great player for Pop's system AND he turned out to be a top five shooting guard of the DECADE. Most would have asked for WAY more money.

For the record, Manu carried the team on his shoulders against the Mavs in '06. Without his contributions, we might not even have made it to game 7.

And by your logic the only way you wouldn't hate Manu is if he was 8 feet tall, immune to injuries, averages 50 points 20 rebounds 25 assists 0 turnovers a game, has won MVP every season and takes the team to the finals and wins it all every year. Sounds about right to appease a 2013 Spurs bandwagoner.

After last year and his epic brain fart / choke I would say you're correct.

And spare me the Mavs series BS. The guy went braindead at the worst moment. As usual. We lost. One oh shite cancels a thousand attaboys. Supposing he was the heart of the Spurs there. So what? Losing is losing.

Nevermind the fact he wasn't irreplaceable in 2006 (and I doubt 99 pct of NBA players--or any of his potential replacements--foul Dirk there, to boot).

oh, now we are up to 3.
why not 4? or 5?
a creative fanatic like you should not have a problem to find a reason why Manu has cost the Spurs some more rings. (note: it's the Spurs, it's not "us". you are not a Spur. never will). your gang reminds more and more about some of those flag burning retards, who will blame the US even for an earthquake in their country.

btw.
Lakers series was NOT a final and Lakers did NOT win the title that year.
Mavs series was NOT a final and Mavs did NOT win the title that year.

it's beyond any logic that Spurs sure fire would have won titels those years.

(oh, did I just use the word logic? sorry, my bad....nevermind)

To add to your argument.. 8 TOs might not be even 8 bad passes by a soccer player. It might be the sum of bad passes and interceptions of even good passes by the opposite team's player.

an average soccer player probably averages 5 or more bad passes a game. on the other hand, handing out 8 passes to the opposing team in a game 6 of an nba final is epic failure and reaching guiness book territory

Besides that, is not common to see teams making 8 goals per game, one thing is futbol soccer (whatever) where teams average 3 goals in a good game, and another thing is basketball where teams play in a reduced space and average 100 points a game.
An average Ben Affleck makes 8 cheap actor faces per second, but thats acting so we cant compare it with basketball.
Manu sucks ass, and I feel bad for those guys smelling his farts.

What the fuck are you talking about?

Duncan averaged 32.3/11.7/3.7 and 2.6 bpg on 56% over those seven games.

Ginobili averaged 21/4.3/1.9 apg on 49%. It should also be noted that Manu averaged more TOs than assists that series. Regardless, I don't blame Ginobili.

We never should have been in the hole in the first place and I blame Pop. He had homecourt advantage, the best player in the series(TD outplayed Dirk) and still lost to one of the worst coaches in NBA history in Avery Johnson. Give Phil Jackson that Spurs team and we beat the Mavs in six games.

[xmas1997]

The Dirk foul did not cause them the title, and he did not cause the game six loss.

It's really hypocritical how you use the "what have you done for me now" tactic, yet you completely ignore Leonard's botched free throw, as well as Pop's completely idiotic move to take Duncan out (did he not watch the Pacers/Heat game one?).

The fact is, despite the turnovers, we could have won that game. But in the time Manu shot the free throw, we botched two rebounds, and another free throw.

This is a team game. Even if Ginobili DID "cost" you spoiled fans two titles, what part of "we wouldn't have won three" wouldn't you understand?

That's the problem with Spurs fans nowadays. This guy is a pioneer for European basketball and their players. He was supposed to be our 57th pick (garbage second round pick to never play for us) and he turned into one of the best damn shooting guards, if not the best, of the decade. Imagine the stats he could have pulled if he left San Antonio.

But he didn't.

He played a sixth man role for his career humbly. He's acknowledged that as long as Tim Duncan plays beside him, they will always win the title. How could you even dislike this guy? He was the one in game seven putting his heart and soul into the entire game, while Danny Green shot 1-17, while Tony Parker shit the bed due to injury. He pulled 18 points and 5 assists in game seven, including an incredibly clutch step-back three and layup. But noone seems to notice that.

You don't think those "won three titles for us" matters now, but I guarantee you would if you never would have won those titles. I also guarantee you cared when it occurred.

Obviously the Manu haters do not want to hear the truth, they are too consumed in their biased hate, but you have outlined the truth pretty thoroughly.
They should commend you for it as I do, but they will keep posting narrow minded posts and ignoring reality.
Bandwagon fans do that typically. They've lost all credibility by posting fiction out of context.

[RobinsontoDuncan]

Look--Manu is just old now. Why all the hate? The loss of the nba finals is on popovich for over playing and over relying on Manu when everyone out there can see that the man is done.

The problem is you guys are confusing FACT with opinion.
It has been shown that there were reasons beyond Manus control that explains his turnovers. Yet you guys flatly refuse to acknowledge any of it. At the very least you should admit that your accusations about him are YOUR OPINIONS.
The same is true for Pop, that there have been shown that there were strategic basketball reasons for what he did too, yet you guys refuse to see those as well.
And you guys have been shown and explained countless times how ludicrous and ridiculous it is to throw all the blame on one or two, when the actual facts were that the whole team messed up at one time or another in the finals.
At least state these are your opinions. Then you won't be faced with the opposition that you are now, and your credibility will quit suffering toward total erosion.
Just trying to help.

[Skull-1]

Reasons beyond his control like PHYSICS. You can't pass to a teammate through an opposing player.

I know that is what you think, but you completely discount the Heats' D, among other reasons that many here have already pointed out, and that none of you are even willing to acknowledge.
I am appealing to your sense of reason here.

And the sole reason I continue to call you guys out is simply that, that you refuse to even consider the whys these things happened. To attribute it solely on Manu being all washed up, and then coming up with silly threads saying that he was completely responsible for them not having other titles too, that is just totally preposterous to the reasonable Spurs fan.

It makes us wonder if you guys are just trolling, seriously. You see, when you try to force an opinion into being a fact as much as you guys do, you turn it away from being a valid opinion and into an obsession. When we see you doing that, it turns everyone off and makes us not take you seriously, now, or in the future.

Nobody disputes that he made mistakes. I repeat, nobody disputes Manu made mistakes, but you guys also refuse to see that other great, and not so great, Spur players made mistakes too. Plus you are willing to give them passes, but not Manu.
Don't you think you are being just a bit unreasonable?

I am just appealing to your sense of fair play, and asking for some reason, rather than obsession, to rule the day.

Well I hope he improves over last year. Not holding my breath.... But hoping. I sense a collapse coming. No way we make the Finals after a loss like that....when everything went our way....

Never say never.
We weren't supposed to make it last year either.
We just might have a better team this year.
And every one of the Spurs championship seasons has been preceded by disheartening loses like we had last season.
So don't count them out. Never underestimate the heart of a champion.
Every year the Spurs are supposed to be done according to the experts, and every year they prove them wrong.
