Manu appreciation thread, tbh...

[ElNono]

He's been playing pretty well this season... I thought he was fantastic tonight, especially filling in for injured Tony. He had a great line (17/7/6), including hitting clutch freebies (alongside Cory)...

Hopefully he can stay healthy, we could really use some solid leadership out there while shorthanded.

Other that his shooting percentage, I think Manu has been playing very well all season. And I expect the % to go up as he gets stronger (after rehabbing the injury this summer) and as the Spurs offense begins to generate better shots.

[Robz4000]

No one is harder on Manu than himself. Really redeemed himself after his brickfest Wednesday.

Feeling really pleased with his drives to the rim, much more confident and executed with more strength and athleticism than the last few seasons. And I haven't been cringing when he attacks feeling like he's gonna get injured trying to drive. Last few seasons it felt like every drive I'd just whisper "don't get hurt, please don't get hurt"

For some reason his motions seem like he's confidant he won't injure himself and I guess I just read that body language and feel better about it too.

His 3 shot has been solid too. pulling up with no hesitation. Really great stuff from him so far.

The main knock right now is finishing around the rim, IMO... but both Tim and Baynes have been cleaning that up really well...

Yea but that scoop bank from far off the glass has been reliable. The missed chippies are frustrating, but I think another month and he will sharpen that up. takes longer to shake the rust of those old bones.

They are not going to stay for a couple of seasons. If they win this year, they have achieved everything b2b and everything else.

There's nothing else to achieve. 3-peat? Far-fetched..

I don't know. I don't think you can satiate competitors like Tim, Tony or Manu, tbh...

Obviously, it will end one day, but while it's clear they're not what they used to be, they're still extremely important, the heart and soul of this team, and clearly they still have gas in the tank.

I think health is the biggie here. Any moderate/chronic injury could spell retirement at any time. That's why it's better to enjoy them while they're around.

Agreed. Manu has looked great this season. No way he hangs me up if he's this effective and not injured. Same with Tim. "Till the wheels fall off" was not a throwaway line. They both obviously love what they do and as long as we're competing for chips I just can't see either if them throwing in the towel.

Needs to get the freethrow situation under control. He's one of the few Spurs that can still consistently get to the line.

Yup. Timmy did the same thing in the playoffs game 2 against LA last year. Timmy basically called an ISO for Kawhi. Late in the fourth.

Would Tony ever do that?

He's been diving on the floor for loose balls, making clutch points, and generally raising havoc against the other team when on the court. Lots of vets still try to shoot the ball as it is probably the easiest thing to do while on the court for a few minutes, but I don't remember seeing many aging vets at the end of their careers who were still playing with this enthusiasm and leadership. You can count them on one hand--Magic, Bird, Jordan, Havilcek, ????

that sequence at 1:06

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K9noiptCZDI

an underrated key for Kawhi to take it to another level, especially in post-TD/Manu Spurs, is to develop an appropriate ego..at this point, the way he is shooting, he shouldn't be any bashful about embracing things like occasional "heat check" sequence..obviously that goes with his improvement in other areas like ball handling/penetration in order to be able to call his number..Manu won't be here for long to be in his ear..

I think he's better playing off the ball at this point. I kind if agree he is scary with the ball trying to drive or passing against a good defensive team almost as much as Danny, who also made some clutch baskets tonight BTW.

But he's getting his rhythm back barely and I do think we need whatever he has to give at this point.

Some quotes from Manu after the game:

There's a lot of things that went into the win but it's a little naive to think the Spurs couldn't grab another two points somewhere along the way to offset Manu's 3-5 shooting if he didn't take a shot. I'm more concerned with his assist totals since his return.... 9 assists/12TO's I don't think the Spurs can win a 'ship with that kind of production coming off the bench.

I don't know about that. The bench, with Boris starting, really gave us very little tonight, he ended up leading the scoring off the bench by a wide margin (the next guy was Patty with 3 points). It was uncharacteristic since Patty and West normally gives us more, but I'm glad Manu stepped up. I actually liked the fact he picked his spots for scoring and was judicious with his shots.

He's been out for a month, and he's no spring chicken at 38, I think it's more than understandable that he's going to be off his game for a while... his shot-making was even more impressive due that, tbh.

That's actually why I think we're going to see less rest from him from here on out. We definitely need him to get back into shape. LaMarcus was pointing out a couple days ago how much easier the game is for him with Manu out there, I'm sure everybody on the team want him to be at 100% by the time the playoffs roll around.

I've been waiting for it since game 6 vs. OKC, tbh..

I think he (Manu) would be willing to do it, assuming he thinks this is his last season. And I think he does think that. He doesn't want (can't handle) the time and energy requirements of the SL point guard role, but for one or two series, I think he would do it. Question is, will Pop do it?

I think we are at the point where Pop will do anything. He benched Duncan last night to match the small ball line-up. I am convinced that he will bench as many of our guards as necessary to try to pull this thing out. He has benched Parker for the ends of periods several times lately and I think we will see more and more of it if TP's play remains so poor and Manu's is better.

But Pop will be careful; no wearing out Manu before the final series.

I agree..I think he learned from last year's playoffs that there will be times where benching Parker is necessary..Duncan has adjusted and accepted being benched for situational purposes, I suppose it's TP's turn to do the same..

I think Pop will play Manu at point when it's required, I don't think last night was an example of a lack of alternatives..it's evident that Mills cannot run the offense and there's no way he should be playing 50-year old Andre Miller in big moments, despite what many Spurs fans want:lol..Manu at PG is not a logical move for long stretches, but it could be utilized for a quarter, or even just half a quarter, if necessary..

It would work vs. GS, too, since he could just guard Harrison Barnes, which isn't a difficult matchup for him..Green and Leonard are going to guard Curry and Thompson, anyways, Manu can handle Barnes or Iguodala..

Manu may be willing to do it but it is not the best thing to do, he will be gassed by the end of the CSF if that happens.
We need to use him at point when is clear than Parker and Mills are both playing bad, otherwise avoid it.
You must keep him fresh to finish games at point against GS, the best moment to use him at that position.

Outside of Curry, every perimeter player for the Warriors has great size for their position(include Draymond Green, as well, since he can guard 3s and even some 2s)..it's one of the most impressive traits of their roster..both Spurs' PGs struggled offensively against them in all the matchups this season IIRC, especially Patty..

And not just offensively. Patty is exploited on defense worse than Tony. He's really the kind of guy you can't afford to plat much unless he's scoring efficiently. Even the depleted Grizzly got good shots out of switches with Patty every time. And Pop switches bc he cannot defend a PnR.

Outside of Curry, every perimeter player for the Warriors has great size for their position(include Draymond Green, as well, since he can guard 3s and even some 2s)..it's one of the most impressive traits of their roster..both Spurs' PGs struggled offensively against them in all the matchups this season IIRC, especially Patty..

Wish we would play vs 2014 Mario Chalmers every series, tbh...

Thinking this team wouldn't need another year from Manu given our dreary ball-handling/play-making reality :lol..soon to be 40-fuckin-year-old Ginobili is still indispensable to this team unfortunately..

Last night felt so 2014 with him closing out games with the band..here's hoping he has one last hurrah series against the Dubs because Clippers-series Parker has set in..

soon to be 39 year old, born in 1977

Are you expecting Patty to play the same as the regular season?
