It's TRUE Manu did call his agent re: Bell to PHX

[BillsCarnage]

Raja Bell just confirmed that YES Manu called their agent and asked why he allowed Bell to go the Suns. He said Manu doesn't like the way he(Bell) plays D against him. Bell was/is being interviewed after the press conf to announce his signing.

Here is a link to the stream; it'll probably be mentioned again through out the show (on until 6pm local time).

everyone here said it was a joke from the writer who posted it way back when.

That and Manu won't be as happy to play the Suns ;-)

not by either of the guys who were actually o n the phone with each other?

[ChumpDumper]

If Manu's splits against the Jazz are any indicator, we have nothing to worry about at all.

Sunfans need some hope after losing JJ.

[picnroll]

Covered in another thread. Manu doesn't like the constant flagrant fouls.

Check out where Bell rates on Rosenbaum's statistical analysis of SG's defensively.

I do not

How it pans out is anyones guess, but the fact is Manu does not like to play against Raja. Can't wait for the first game between the two.

Is Matrix still screaming "No, no, not Bowen" in his sleep?

[MaNuMaNiAc]

Interestingly, Bell who is being signed by the Suns in order to shore up their defense rates as a bad defender. What is remarkable about Bell's results is that he has played for several teams over the past three seasons and yet his defensive ratings have been consistently bad. That strongly suggests that putting him in a new context with the Suns is not going to markedly improve his defense.

It's gonna be just like always... Manu's gonna own him whether he gets a flagrant foul or not, and the spurs are gonna win.


What's the point of this thread?


To try to make your team look good by saying you might have Ginobili stopper, even when that doesn't exist.

[ChumpDumper]

but the fact is Manu does not like to play against Raja.Hey, if Manu doesn't like shooting .611 from the field, .556 from the arc and scoring 21 points in 29 minutes, he can hate it all he wants.

[BigVee]

Bell will foul out. He is more goon than great defender.

[GoSpurs21]

who really cares if Manu said it or not, Bell cant guard him for sh!t without being dirty
fact is PHX got older with the Bell and Thomas additions
Nash will also be one year older
unless coach Pornstash changes his ways the suns will be burnt out by the time the playoffs come around, if they can stay healthy

[CaptainLate]

Covered in another thread. Manu doesn't like the constant flagrant fouls.

Then someone needs to take out Bell. Cm'on Spurs, let's not have another Mailman-Admiral fiasco.

[clubalien]

threating to not sign or use another agent just because you don't want another client of your agent to sign somewhere shoudl be banned in the next CBA this is not professonal at all

imagen if you are a big player liek wade, tim, wade, and you said I will change agents if you have devin brown go to denver have him only go to boston seems unfair

[vanvannen]

Honestly, if Manu called his agent to actually complain about the Bell singing then he IS a pussy.
If he did call I honestly believe it was one of Manu's common jokes. If not, then I'm quite ashamed of him... :depressed

[whottt]

Like has already been noted...the best game Manu had against the Jazz last season was the one Bell started against him. He may not like Bell but it's not like has bad games against him.

And Manu needs to fire his agent for giving Bell that information. He needs to let others know that agent tells clients of private conversations with other clients. I am sure there is a potential lawsuit in there as well against that agent.

How do you know you have a dumbass agent? When he favors a low paid client over a high paid one in breaking confidentiality. IF all this is true that guy clearly is working in Bell's interest at the direct expense of Manu...Manu needs to give him the full time opportunity to represent Bell.

[nkdlunch]

K, your link points to a crappy Phoenix radio which I only listened to 1 minute of it and doesn't say anything about the topic.

Yes, Manu is gonna bother calling his agent after hearing the news about Raja Bell :lmao :lmao :elephant

I'll beleive that when Phoenix makes it out of the West in the playoffs or when D'antony opens a water bottle w/out any help :lol

[BronxCowboy]

The story is not true, even if Raja Bell says it is, becuase unless Manu was joking, it makes no sense. What difference does it make to Manu whether he is gaurded by Raja Bell of the Jazz, or Raja Bell of the Suns? He will have to face him either way. Why would he care that Bell signed with the Suns?

Hey, there is a little more than an hour left in the show. They said they were going to replay the interview. Probably during the 5 o'clock rush hour.

Same here. I can't wait to watch the Spurs own the Suns, just like they did this past season.

I'm right in the heart of Suns Country, so I've got firsthand knowledge that Phoenix's fans are delusional. They've got no center. They're losing a guy who posted 17 ppg, 5 rpg, and shot 48% from 3-point land. Kurt Thomas doesn't have the speed to facilitate the run-and-gun style that made them successful last year. Nevertheless, they're drinking Sarver's Kool-Aid and believe they'll contend for a championship. Get real. The only thing the Suns are contending for is a 4-seed in the Playoffs.

Sorry Billscarnage, and any other Suns fans, but that one-trick pony has been taken out to pasture.

[samikeyp]

hey now, Phx was one game away.....from being swept! :lol


Seriously, without Johnson they not be as effective as last year. Amare will have an MVP type season but Nash is a year older and Bell, who is a good defender, is not the scorer JJ is. I see more halfcourt sets and less running...which is not to their advantage.

[BillsCarnage]

The only thing the Suns are contending for is a 4-seed in the Playoffs.



Oh, so who in the Pacific will take the 1-3 seed??? In fact who in any other division, sans the Spurs, is capable of taking the 1-3 seed? If Houston wins the SW guess where the Spurs go.. That's right #4.

Keep dreamin bub.

[samikeyp]

that is a big if, bro. But you do have a point....while I think that the Suns will not be as good as they were this year, they IMO are still the best in their division and in the NW its still Seattle but still IMO not as good as this year.

[Spuritista]

Nobody has something to relieve duck's brain cramp?

[BillsCarnage]

The NW division is a crap shoot, but Denver will likely come out of there. Seattle if they can pull thier heads out of their ass. I really don't see the Suns worse than #2. Losing JoJo will alter their style, but not that much. Jjax, Bell or Fins (if he comes) will still be able to shoot the three just fine. And it the Suns only need three to run the break in their style.

There's a long way to go until camp, but I will still go against popular opinion and say the Suns will be better next season. Probably not record wise, but they'll be a better team. They caught lightning in a bottle this past year.

[190 Octane]

Well, Houston won't win the division so that's a moot point. They'll be a very good, but they still have no bench whatsoever, and Stromile Swift is certainly not in the same league as Tim Duncan.

The Suns are still the best team in the Pacific, I'll admit that. But the division won't be the cakewalk it was this past season. The Lakers will be much better. The Clippers will be better. The Warriors - who beat the Suns twice - are going to turn heads.

I can admit when I'm wrong. Phoenix won't be a four-seed because they'll win the division, but they'll be the fourth best team in the conference. San Antonio, Houston, and Dallas should be better, and Denver and Memphis could give Phoenix a run for its money.

When it comes to winning a championship, the only ones who can "keep dreamin'" are the Phoenix Suns ;)

It was a joke, an inside joke between Manu and his agent. It was just blown out of proportion by the Suns fans hopefuls that will be praying they can make it back to the Western Conference Finals again and atleast take the Spurs to 6 games.

[Spurologist]

Bell will become Manu's bitch next season. End of fucking story.

[Manu'sMagicalLeftHand]

The sad thing for the Suns is that Bell and Kurt Thomas won't be enough to take them past the Spurs or any team that plays defence. Why? Because of their own style, too much fastbreak, too little defence, and D'Antoni, Nash and Stoudamire don't look like they are going to change it.

SA, likely...
Houston, only team that really scares me...
Dallas, yeah right....
Denver, Suns should still be able to beat them in 7.
Memphis, ok dunno what yer smoking but that team/franchise is in complete disarray.

Warriors will be good, especially w/Ike, but they'll probably be 5 or 6 seed.

[BillsCarnage]

Why? Because of their own style, too much fastbreak, too little defence, and D'Antoni, Nash and Stoudamire don't look like they are going to change it.

Keep telling yerself that. Amare has stated that his main goal this offseason is to work on his defense. They may or may not put a fill scheme D in, but Bell and KT are defensive minded players. Meaning when some one tries to score they'll try to stop them.

[BillsCarnage]

Was it a joke, or is Manu really frustrated. Maybe now that Bell has said something the reporter who started the whole thing will ask Manu's side of the story. Be sure to post a link when it happens. Otherwise you keep telling yourself it's a joke.

[ChumpDumper]

Go sniff some boxscores and tell me Manu is really scared of Bell.

[BillsCarnage]

Go ask Manu or his agent if he is. Like i say... can't wait til the first game between the two.

[Manu'sMagicalLeftHand]

Exactly...for the Spurs win and Manu going for 38 pts, on 10/12 FG.

[BillsCarnage]

http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/news/story?id=2123876


Ginobili, who has the same agent as Bell, Herb Rudoy, complained to Rudoy when he learned that his defensive nemesis was going to a team that San Antonio met in the Western Conference finals.

"It was funny," Bell said. "You know, Manu's a competitor, and I do a good job, I'd like to say, on him, but he's a tough guard for me. So it's just a respect level. It's cool to hear somebody thinks you're that way, especially being the All-Star that he is, so it was flattering."


Now they're all saying it.. Weeeeee.

[ChumpDumper]

Go ask Manu or his agent if he is.He isn't.

RIF.

Tell me if Bell defended Manu well based on the times he guarded him.

He did not.

We saw the games.

[190 Octane]

Memphis is in complete disarray? They've added Eddie Jones, who contributes mid-teens scoring, a healthy 5 or 6 rebounds per game, and veteran leadership. They shipped out malcontent Bonzi Wells and added Bobby Jackson, a real spark plug. They lost Jason Williams and his 5:2 assists to turnovers ratio. Stromile Swift's departure is a negative, but aside from that, they're looking pretty solid. Perhaps not on the Suns level, but still capable of giving them a run for their money.

As far as "Dallas..yeah right," this year's Mavs team gave the Johnson-less Suns all they wanted in the Conference semis, tying that series up 2-2. It also took 2 overtimes and a career performance from Nash to avoid going behind 3-2, so I wouldn't be so quick to brush them off.

[smeagol]

I bet $100 Manu did not say it or at the most it was a joke. It's not his style.

And believe me, Billy boy, he is not scared of Raja. That's for sure.

The play is called:

"The need to sell tickets when your team looked like favourites back in March, but got their asses kicked by the Spurs in the playoffs".

The Spurs did the same thing with Brent Barry after the Hedo disaster in the playoffs. It turned out that the replacement for Hedo was right there for the Spurs (Manu).

That's right, Johnson LESS. Yet the Suns still won.

MAYBE if Diaper has a break out season. And MAYBE if Dirk stops yelling at teammates. And MAYBE if Dirk doesn't mind being the last head of the "3-headed" monster. And MAYBE if Terry has an all-star season. And MAYBE if they want to play defense.

Dallas will be 3rd in the division.

[190 Octane]

That's right, Johnson LESS. Yet the Suns still won.

And MAYBE if they want to play defense.

Dallas will be 3rd in the division.

Right, my point was Dallas gave the Suns a good series without Johnson, whom they won't have this season. Dismissing a team that went 2-3 against Phoenix under those circumstances as a "yeah right" doesn't quite fit.

Maybe if they play defense...ironic coming from a Suns fan. Stoudemire might be working on his defense, and I believe he is, as he's one of the best players in the league. But he should really try to talk the MVP into joining him. Nash got lit up to the tune of 20 ppg by Tony Parker in the Conference Finals. Jason Terry averaged 17 a game against Nash, five more than his season average.

I agree with that last point. Dallas likely will finish third in the division, but that should be enough to make them fourth best team in the conference.

[MI21]

Why are Phoenix fans cocky? They have no reason to be. They think Bell on Manu is a good thing, they are delusional.

So Manu is unhappy that a defender that consistently roughs him up and commits flagrant fouls and such is going to one of the Spurs so called "rivals". Tim Duncan was probably feeling the same when Karl Malone joined the Lakers. So what? I'm sure Manu isn't worried about Raja defending him successfully, because we have all seen the stats Manu puts up againt Raja. I'm sure Manu isn't worried about having to defend Bell either, because we all know offensively he is average. So there is no problem regarding Manu being worried about facing him, Manu would have a much tougher time being efficient and playing his own game against other Phoenix swingmen, because Bell sure as hell does nothing to stop him.

Phoenix fans think that having Raja supposedly "annoy" and "rough up" Manu is going to somehow work to there advantage? Um, check out what happened in the playoffs when Denver and Seattle were consistently dropping Manu on the ground. Yeah, didn't really work out to well for them, and if Phoenix think they can do that with there team of softies and one rough player, they are kidding themselves.

Phoenix fans think Raja Bell is going to turn them into a Top 7-8 defensive team. Idiots.

So to recap, BOTH Bell and Rudoy, the agent, confirmed Manu called to whine.

Conspiracy theory or joke.. It's now been proven TRUE. case closed.

Bill, come up with the ExpressNews article dingbat.

Mouse needs to leave his house and explore the world outside his room.

[BillsCarnage]

i looked, but it's not listed. But i don't need to prove it existed as there were plenty of posts re: the whole issue.

Though, at this point it doesn't matter who started it as it's been confirmed by Bell and the Rudoy that Manu whinned.

Mouse, the writer said the Express News reported it.

That;s the smoking gun.

Explain or quote Bell, what exactly did he say. Can you do that Mouse?

[MaNuMaNiAc]

So, for shits and giggles, if Bell "holds" Manu to his career avg of 12pts and scores 12, it's a landslide for Bell?

Right on.
I don't get it. How is it that you can expect Bell to have a better defensive performance in the Suns, when even Utah was better defensively than the Suns (with Bell) and they still couldn't stop Manu?? I'm intrigued.

[BillsCarnage]

keep thinkin i'm mouse all you want.. whatever yanks yer chain.

Second, go back and read this thread. I've posed all the links and quotes.. WATCH the freakin video link listed not too far above. Geez you really are a Spurs fan ain't ya.

Look, you can talk all the shit you want. Come playing time, you'll disappear like everyone else we've played against. Have fun with your overrated team.

[TheWriter]

Kid, Manu was 21 pts, 4 rebs, 4 asts, in 29 minutes against Bell in the regular season.

He had a 31 pts, 8 rebs, 7 asts, in 35 iminute game when Bell started against Manu.

Hold on to your "he called and complain" story. Print it, blow it up, andnail it to your ceiling so it gives you something to beat off to. Don't you think the Ben Affleck poster is a little... you know.

[gospursgojas]

Raja Bell is a punk who couldn't make it on the Spurs roster. He never stoped Manu before and he still wont. Why would any of you all attach substance to anything an agent says, haven't you all been watching and hearing the circus that T.O's agent Drew Rosenhaus is???

If the report is true maybe it was a joke. But I doubt that Manu, a guy who keeps attaking the rim against the Shaqs and the Ben Wallaces of the league, and the thugs like Jerome James and Denver's big men of the league...is afraid of anybody. You mean to tell me after all Manu went through, all the bumps and bruises that he obtained during the 2005 playoffs Manu is afraid of little ol' Raja Bell. C'mon :rolleyes

Also, do you guys really think Phoenix is doing a good job gearing up to take down the Spurs, by trying to stop Tim with Kurt Thomas, and Manu with Bell???

[MI21]

That said, if Manu did indeed ring his agent and complain about the signing in a serious way, that is odd. Doesn't seem like a Manu thing to do.

Still, it doesn't take anything away from my previous post about how Manu owns Bell.

[ChumpDumper]

if Bell "holds" Manu to his career avg of 12pts and scores 12, it's a landslide for Bell?If Bell holds Manu to under 60% shooting, it will be some minor miracle.

[gospursgojas]

This all sounds like a shameless ploy by Suns fans to cover up the wack job they are doing trying to counter the Spurs talent, with guys like Thomas, who Tim owned in 99 and Bell who Manu owns all the time

[Marhq]

When/How did Bell "earn" that reputation of being a Manu stopper? I must've missed those games.

[FoxMulder]

PHX is strange... they lost Joe Johnson and add Raja Bell to replace it... yeah Manu is really afraid... wait it wasn´t Raja Bell playing for USA when ARG beat them first time? Maybe I´m wrong.
But anyways this guy is a big L and maybe a jynx...
every team where he has played became worst suddendly...

You keep repeating yourself. So what's your point??
Bell went to the Suns:

Manu is afraid of Bell? :lmao :lmao :lmao
Bell is gonna turn the Suns into a playoff threat? :lol :lmao :elephant

Mavs fans thought the same about VanHorn and look what happened :lol

truth is w/Bell or w/out Suns will be a sorry ass team come playoff time. enjoy your winning regular season

Bell plays for the Virgin Islands, I believe they played only once against each other at National Team level. And Argentina routed in the game, Manu played like 15 minutes because that was enough to win. Now Bell will get another taste of that in the Suns.

[spurschick]

Why would Rudoy say anything? He's not going to bust in and say "No, Manu didn't say that" in the middle of a press conference with another client. It sounds like whatever Manu said, if anything, has gotten blown out of proportion and Bell is riding the wave. Enjoy it while it lasts. See you on the court.

[190 Octane]

Come back when you know your facts and don't make a fool of yourself.

Facts? :lol You're an idiot, the only person making a fool of himself is you. Where, exactly, are your "facts?" Everything you've stated is opinion, same as me jackass. The closest thing to "facts" you've posted is this stupid story that was either taken out of context or an obvious joke. Why would Manu fear a bench hack like Raja Bell? I'm sure a basketball virtuoso like yourself knows Ginobili hung 31 on Bell back in March. I'm also sure you know this fact: 6-2 That's the Spurs' record against your beloved Suns. Fact that, fool.

Go register at phxsuns.net and post with the other paint sniffers who've deluded themselves into thinking the Suns aren't anything more than a one-year wonder.

Right out of Manu's spanish forum:

Y... la verdad es la siguiente:

Tenemos el mismo agente y hablando con mi agente le comente que era un defensor duro y demas (el lo sabe bien tambien). Lo demas fue mas anecdotico y gracioso que un hecho real. Nunca lo llame para decirle eso.

Espero haber aclarado la cosa.

Saludos


Manu says that he called his agent and he told him that Bell it's a tough defender. But the rest it's just anecdotic and funny, he never called him especially to tell him about Bell, it was just a comment.

Thanks. It's nice to finally hear it out of Manu's own mouth and not some reporter or Bell who had no part in the conversation :rolleyes . I knew Manu was probably joking around while maybe talking about him.
