Manu Ginobili - A One-Man Run For the Blazers. Someone Stop Him. PLEASE.

[Skull-1]

This guy needs to go. What a douche!

My former favorite player isn't even in my top five any more.

Four minutes to go in the Third and he is giving the game away. Normally he waits until the fourth so maybe his broken English is confusing him. He is throwing the game early.

This sh-t won't fly in the WCF or the Big Show....

Retire, TOSB.

Gawdamn....

he already signed for the Blazers after game 4 IMO :lol

[baseline bum]

He's our point guard next round. She be great for the LOLs

[mando6599]

Have to agree, the runs seem to start with the entrance of Gino into the game, for sure. 2 Turnovers, missed layup, missed 3, UGH.

[TheGreatYacht]

This ain't even trolling. Manu has been a liability this whole series... Is Will Barton a rich man's Bowen?

[TMTTRIO]

Manu could've been retired by now if the Spurs didn't decide to ask him back. You can blame the Spurs for that. Part of me wishes Pop would stop playing at all.

Manu is still an important cog to the Spur machine, even in a resounding victory some of you are still nitpicking, like El Nono stated, he almost single handedly got us through the first round

[Capt Bringdown]

Manu is wearing down as we go deeper into the playoffs. But, unfortunately for the Spurs, his physical condition isn't the main issue - it's his stupidity. And his stupidity cost us a championship last year.
The dude never meet a bad pass or hero-ball shot he didn't like.

[Cowboys_Wear_Spurs]

Guys, why do you even respond to Skulls, GY, Hater threads on Manu. Its like a broken record. Spurs would not have gotten pass Dallas w/o Manu. He has a couple of bad games and now he sucks.

He played decent last night. And I am sure Parker will be ready next Monday. Remember Parker had the same issue against GS last year and he didn't miss anytime.

[Captivus]

Manu is tired.
The second unit doesnt have a ball handler, thats the problem.
You can be 100% sure that Manu would prefer to play alongside Parker, but he cant. He does what he is asked to do.
He is not a PG, you should know this by now.

Yes, his game has been in decline for several years, and it's a sad thing to witness, but he still serves an important role.

No need to devote your life to hating an individual player.

To be fair, Splitter is equally important as Manu in Round 1.

Today, I think Leonard is really the player that makes the difference. Not Manu.

Without him, we lose this game.

I don't think anyone disagrees with this. If anything, the Spurs need to work him into the offense even more.

But, it's still going to take some time to pass that torch.

[weebo]

Some dumb ass starts a thread to garner some attention and you all fall for it. Manu isn't the player he once was, but he's still important to the team. If Pop felt Manu was a liability to the the team, he wouldn't be playing him.

[DarrinS]

[Baam]

Our big 3 is just not durable enough at this point... Manu needs tons of rest to play well...

[DarrinS]

Our big 3 is just not durable enough at this point... Manu needs tons of rest to play well...

TP too

[Phenomanul]

I've never seen Manu that frustrated with himself... he has total lack of confidence in his shot... none of his layups were falling... he looked clumsy with the ball... The entire Blazers series has been bad-to-mediocre for his standards. One would almost think that he's hiding some sort of injury - even his gait looks entirely different...

That said, we wouldn't have gotten past Dallas without his stellar play in that series. Let me repeat that in a different manner, Manu logged well over his season minute-per-game average and still managed to produce a PER (>20.5) that was better than his regular season metric.

It appears to me that if Pop is leaving him out there it's because he's trying to get Manu to play out of his funk. Much like he did with Mills, Green and Belinelli - or even Duncan's top-of-the-key jumper to an extent.

I don't understand Spurs fans who can call themselves that hating on a player of Manu's caliber... who despite having one of his most forgettable series ever, never fails to compete wholeheartedly for the Spurs organization.

[smeagol]

Except when Manu knocks the glass over...

[2centsworth]

I don't like the Manu hate. He's not nearly the player he was, but that's because he literally may have been the best 2 guard on the planet for a couple of years. We fans remember when, and unfortunately, so does Manu who sometimes tries to do the things he used to. Still, there are not many guards who can attack the rim like Manu can and on occasion he finishes like he used to. We need him to focus on ball handling and solid decision making and not think of himself as the Hero of the past.

Hopefully he defers more and more, which will allow him to impact the outcome in small meaningful ways.

Manu will always be one of my favorites of all-time!

[sammy]

[Gagnrath]

I like manu always have what I don't understand is how for a seemingly fairly smart guy he doesn't understand and adjust on nights when he isn't physically all there. I get the desire to push through and be competitive but sometimes you just have to realize you can't do certain things you used to do most nights every day, adjust and play with in yourself. I'm not saying don't carry the load if you need to from time to time but most guys when they reach their 30s realize that if you got someone that can handle stuff you should save your energy for when its important. Manu doesn't which is kinda infuriating.

[testies]

He was as bad on offense as game 4, but at least he played defense and didn't allow stupid 3s or four-point plays. If he had the same defensive performance we would be talking about game 6 in Portland right now

[ElNono]

He's been having a great season so far... I'm so glad he'll be one of the leaders of this team for another year. PATFO with another underrated move with that extension, tbh...

Portland was no better than Dallas in any way, nor offense, nor defense.

So as of now, Ginobili has bailed all of you out in the most difficult series we had.

Deal with it.

You think you would have found a player that could have averaged 17.7 ppg, 4.6 apg, 3.1 rpg, 2.3 spg, 45.0 FG% (36 for 80), 37.8 3-pt% (14 for 37) for 7 millions over a seven game series.

[Sean Cagney]

Still to all you haters.

Without Ginobili we are not here today, you would be seing Mark Cuban cheering for his mavs against Portland.

The one you hate was the best player in the most difficult round we played this playoffs, against the best defensive team we played this playoffs.

Portland was no better than Dallas in any way, nor offense, nor defense.

So as of now, Ginobili has bailed all of you out in the most difficult series we had.

Deal with it.

You think you would have found a player that could have averaged 17.7 ppg, 4.6 apg, 3.1 rpg, 2.3 spg, 45.0 FG% (36 for 80), 37.8 3-pt% (14 for 37) for 7 millions over a seven game series.

Good for you, call me back when you are GM of and NBA franchise

Before that

Pop, RC = Profesionals, successfull and hardworkers
Haters in this thread = Morons

Dallas stepped up their D but they were ranked 22nd on D I believe this year! They were not really good on D, but they confused the Spurs with new looks and Monta Ellis and Carter were a pain in our ass, Monta is the type of guard we can never stop. Dallas was not great on D though, not even close this year.

Gino did play hard in that series though, especially game 7! Parker blacked out in game 7 as well! A few helped us get past that series but Manu was the most consistent! I hope to see that again the next round vs the Thunder and not the one we saw vs Portland (Who was god awful alot of times honestly). I hope the TEAM SHOWS up though most of all, if quite a few show up from Tim, Tony, Manu to Kawhi etc. we have a great shot to advance.

Shows you how tired OKC was when Manu finally decided to contribute something.

[Jimcs50]

That curveball assist to Green right before halftime was a play that only 3-4 players in NBA history could even think about trying, much less pull it off. Yes Manu can make the horrible turnover at times, but damn, when he is on, it is pure artistry what he does. Gonna miss him so much when he retires.

[Harry Callahan]

The good news is that Manu looks MUCH, MUCH better this year. We might get 3-4 good Manu games each series instead of 1-2. That is very important.

In his 12 NBA seasons, Manu Ginobili has amassed 2,635 career points in the playoffs. His point total is 6th most among foreign-born players behind Hakeem Olajuwon, Dirk Nowitzki, Patrick Ewing and a couple of his Spurs teammates in Tim Duncan and Tony Parker

Manu owes you nothing, he was not the reason the Spurs lost last years finals.
The whole team was and this is a well known FACT now!
Manu was playing hurt then as was TP, yet I don't see any of you ignorant haters blasting him.
Ignorance appears to be your prime calling card, so change teams if you don't like him because I guarantee none of the Spurs players feel the way you do about him!
With fans like you idiots, who needs enemies?
He will be super hard to replace once he retires.
Now, post your ignorant baseless replies to this!

[testies]

Some idiots think you are just teleported by divine intervention to the Finals.. Idiot! If it wasn't for Manu clutch play we might be watching Finals on the television... Same thing for Splitter critics, we might have lost to effin Dallas if not for his great play in rnd 1... Every series is crucial and important, and Manu can play badly in Finals, he still was amazing this season

[spursparker9]

I think Manu redeemed a good part by hitting that 3 that give a 1 point lead with 27 sec left

[xmas1997]

Some people are just ignorant idiots who do not realize yet that basketball is a TEAM sport.
They should just go root for teams like the Heat or the Thunder who rely on a few elite players.
These types of fans are what gives any sport a bad name, totally classless and clueless!

[cd98]

The Spurs just made it to the NBA finals. Any Spur fan that dumps on a player on the roster is a moron. Spurs play team basketball and they got to the finals as a team. Everybody did their role and kudos to them all no matter how big or small that role was.

There were people ripping him after the big three he hit vs GS last year. Some lame fans will never be satisfied because they have made up their minds about him. If he has a great game, they make excuses or qualifications. If he has a poor game, they gloat like that's all they care about. True fans stand behind their players through the good and bad.
