short piece from a Rockets article on BR
Manu Ginobili has had one of the most remarkable comebacks this year, even though his points may not directly show it. Last year, it seemed as if he was as good as done. This year, however, he may be the key piece to making it to the WCF.
In March alone, Ginobili is shooting 56% from the field, including 43% from three. He's averaging 15 points and 4 dimes in a little less than 20 minutes.
Furthermore, in his last seven games, Ginobili is averaging 18 per game, shooting an incredible 61% from the field, 48% from 3.
:wow
I dont want to say what time of the season it is..

It truly has been remarkable how he's not only produced in such limited minutes but how Spry he looks. He was completely broken physically & mentally last year after the hammy injury. His shot was broken, his ability to handle the ball & initiate offense was gone & he lacked explosion.
I was terrified when Manu went down with the hammy again - I thought that was it. But he's looked amazing and with Danny/Kawhi regaining form it bodes very well.

Meh,he's still slow footed as f00k on D and makes awful risky passes,lotsa circle jerking during the softpack part 'o the season LOL!
If we get by OKC to the Finals the Heat will eat him alive,gotta hope the new/improved part of the bench can make up for it
Why the hell anyone falls for that slow ass shot fake and exaggerated jab step is beyond me...looks like he's moving in quicksand LOL!
Diaw and Mills are the key IMHO if those two can deliver we got a fightin' chance and Baynes delivering a few choice fouls cant be under estimated as well
I mean if we're gonna get FD by the refs anyway,might as well get our $$$'s worth and judging by the last Blazers and Jazz game its gonna be more of the same till its OVAH so get the gauntlets on.

After last year to be honest with you I didn't, after the playoffs it appeared he was either hurt more than he lead on or just flat out done! He looked bad. I am shocked he is doing this well but it's Manu so no surprise.

I was worried earlier in the year because he was telegraphing passes and they were slow because he was using only his left hand and it was already partially extended when he pushed the ball off. (hope y'all can follow my description of this). I don't care how talented you are, you can't throw lazy passes in the NBA.
But lately, he hasn't been as slow on his passes. I haven't seen that lazy one-handed slow extension in a while. His better focus has resulted in fewer TOs.

It doesn't matter how slow or fast your pump fake is. What makes a good pump fake is that it closely replicates your shot and Manu does just that. If you notice, Beli probably has one of the best pump fakes in the game and his isn't that fast either, it's just that it really looks as if he is about to lift off the ground and shoot his natural shot.

Funny how you and others still manage to talk mess about Manu! He's playing incredible.. You do know he's in the top running for 6MOY., right? Pretty good for a 36 year old. Doesn't really matter what you say, he's definitely ballin and making you eat your own words, hater.

I've always thought his troubles in the playoffs last year were because of the Olympics. Simply didn't get enough rest.
As far as I know he didn't play last summer so that extra rest time should keep his body fresh for this May.
He's not 2005 Manu anymore I think we can all agree, but he isn't as done as he showed last June.

Tbh I called this happening, the player we saw last year just wasn't anywhere near the player we have watched for years. He clearly wasn't himself at all, and when I heard he was gonna take the summer off I knew he'd get back to being able to produce at a high level. I do think he has a tendency to throw some crazy passes sometimes that would look a lot worse vs. OKC and Miami, so vs. those kinds of teams he should really focus on scoring so he doesn't throw the ball every where (obviously make the passes that are there, just don't force). this year i think he has the confidence and burst to do just that.

Yeah, I feel like Manu is the type that really takes pride in his abilites. He knew people were laughing at him and calling him washed up/the main reason we lost...I guarantee that lit a fire under his ass.
I just hope he's still playing like this come playoff time.

Spurs have been playing teams that are either struggling or just bottom feeders. Let's wait until it matters before we assess how well Manu is doing. That jump pass turnover (2 in a row) he made last game tells me he's still not fully aware of his limitations. He over-commits and then heaves a desperation pass. He attempts passes and shots that just aren't there. So he's hitting a few, they always seem like great ideas when you hit them. I'd rather him miss shots than turn the ball over, but Manu would never give me just one choice.

To be fair, he had great games against OKC and Portland pre-injury, even when we lost.
As far as the bolded part, you can go back to 2003 and he did the same thing. Difference is that back then he could drive at will and give you a couple of nice highlights that made you forget the mistakes. He always has been a feast-famine player, the good just outdid the bad much more often back then. Nowadays, he's older and can't drive as well anymore. His game has changed to be more of a passer/playmaker, and obviously his mistakes in those areas are now much more noticeable. He's still a high-production, highly-valuable player just by the fact that he makes teammates around him better.

Pretty much. Pop himself said he stopped trying to rein him in because he understands he's the ultimate competitor. Obviously, at this age he's more prone to make mistakes, but I think Pop trusts him as much as ever.

Its called taking the first summer ever off in over 10 years and just resting. He wanted to play the in World Cup in South American and Pop and RC ask him not to. Thankfully he obliged and us Spurs fan are seeing the benefits this year.
Pretty much. Pop himself said he stopped trying to rein him in because he understands he's the ultimate competitor. Obviously, at this age he's more prone to make mistakes, but I think Pop trusts him as much as ever.
I don't think anyone disagrees with your point, but thats not an excuse to leave him out there in a game he is clearly struggling in to the detriment of the team. I hope that doesn't repeat itself.
If Manu cant get out of his own way in a meaningful playoff game, then Pop needs to get IN his way. Manu being a fierce competitor is not a get out of jail free card when he is whizzing passes into the stands and to the other team in a big game.
Duncan, and Manu for that matter, may have been good enough to erase those in the past, but we aren't in the past. We are dealing with this team right now with players at their current age.
Pop needs to have the balls to yank him to settle him if he's starts doing that again, and if he doesn't stop, he needs to have the balls to bench him. One of Pops favorite lines is "it wouldn't be fair to the other guys". Exactly, Pop....exactly.

Which is why I said "not fully aware of his limitations". I don't mind the mistakes that result from over-aggressiveness as much as I mind the mistakes from lack of ball movement or just being lost on defense. Eventually the aggressiveness will reward you, when it's Manu. You just cannot find any rhyme or reason to those instances where he drives into 4 defenders, jumps up and throws the ball away.

You obviously don't fully comprehend my statement. Manu doesn't have the same ability he had in the past. I've been watching Manu since even before he came into the NBA. I know his tendencies, but in the past he could offset his turnovers with production and defense. Not so much any more, at least not against good teams. Manu still has plenty game in him, just not like he used to have. He hasn't really adjusted his game. You don't see Tim shooting the bank shot every other trip down the floor these days. Wonder why?

A little history about that quote, because it plays right into this. The actual quote was "it wouldn't be fair to Matt". This is when Bonner was starting with Duncan and Tiago was riding the pine. It was in response as to why Splitter didn't play more.
By the time the playoffs roll around, Pop knows who set the table and he'll let them eat. Like he says, it's only fair.

I think he's just trying to push the envelope. It will fail sometimes. Part of taking the good with the bad, I guess. He clearly doesn't have the same motor he did back in the day, so he isn't as relentless. Part of father time catching with you.

When the head coach and president of basketball operations calls your number and leaves you out there, you keep doing what you do. It's not on Manu. The Spurs other options aren't great during those stretches anyhow.

You can tell MJ still wants to play to this day honestly! He never wanted to give up the game of bball as that was his life.

There is a story about Manu on ESPN 2 Keith Olbermans show tonight. It shows his parents home and
family in Argentina. A nice little story. The show repeats at 11pm CDT. It comes on late in the show
but worth the wait.....

I can't help but cringe when Manu takes it to the hole since the hammy could go again at any time.

You obviously don't fully comprehend my statement. Manu doesn't have the same ability he had in the past. I've been watching Manu since even before he came into the NBA. I know his tendencies, but in the past he could offset his turnovers with production and defense. Not so much any more, at least not against good teams. Manu still has plenty game in him, just not like he used to have. He hasn't really adjusted his game. You don't see Tim shooting the bank shot every other trip down the floor these days. Wonder why?
This is it exactly. Manu couldn't make up for his bad plays like he used to in the past. In the past he would make up for it especially on defense, like coming up with crucial defensive plays.
