Manu's next career

[Old School 44]

Manu always tells it like it is when he writes an article or is interviewed. I'd doubt if he'd do it, but I think Manu would be great as a national broadcast in studio TV guy or even a game analyst (with TNT, ESPN/ABC) when he retires. Can't you just see Barkley introducing him on his first broadcast!

With the game as global as it's become, the networks would be wise to look for an international player with his insight and intelligence to add to their national broadcasts.

What do you all think? If not Manu, what international player do you think could make this transition?

[Old School 44]

Maybe this guy? lol

Stunt double

[MateoNeygro]

Pet Detective. He can help find the white bat 'Shikaka', a sacred animal of the Wachati tribe. He has experience with bats.

[SpurPadre]

He'll turn to soccer and show Messi how Argentines win World Titles, tbh.

[BatManu20]

Coach somewhere, whether it be ARG, Europe, or SA.

That was pretty damn hilarious :lmao

Nash is a good dude.

[Diego20]

Manu? Bat Hunter?


:lmao

[Malik Hairston]

Could see him as a care-giver, tbh..all those years spent carrying and saving Tony Parker would look good on the resume:lol..

[sprrs]

Not sure about Manu. Boris or Patty would be fantastic at broadcasting though.

[hater]

evita already got 5 turnovers in the 1st half.

this is his next career IMO:

Not juggling.

[exstatic]

Baker. He's got that turnover thing down pat.

Would be interesting to see Manu next to Chuck on TNT tbh

Love the idea. I would literally pay to watch him on TNT or ESPN...

That will be Kobe, he loves to chuck.

[ElNono]

We'll see, but I suspect he's going to devote himself in some capacity to ARG's basketball management... once he gets tired of that, anything is possible I suppose.

[kaji157]

He´s got an all around mind.
Seems to be aware of other things that play a part in being a great player/organization/coach.
I think he would be a great fit ideally as a part of the organization, as he already said that he wouldn´t like to coach.
Most likely he declines a job here in San Antonio as he many times said that he wants his kids to grow up in his native town in Argentina. So most likely he can be useful either as a Scout or as a ambassador for the NBA and things like that.
I bet he will be involved in managing Argentina Basketball Confederation.

[hater]

doubt Manu will go to argentina to work with those shit organizations. All politics and mafia. he won't fit in there.

plus his kids are american. he'll probably stay with his anchor babies.

Nah, Manu is coming back to Bahia Blanca with all his relatives. Probably doing something that keeps him out of the spotlight.

[Old School 44]

Yep...Manu will have his options, I was just thinking with the game so global, it might be the next step for the media outlets like TNT/ABC/ESPN to secure a retiring big name international star for their broadcasts. IMO, Manu would be great at it, but I'd understand if he wasn't interested.

Really, the most likely international prospect to make the jump to behind the mic would be Steve Nash.

[Drew2354]

he already does that....especially at the free throw line

Really, the most likely international prospect to make the jump to behind the mic would be Steve Nash. I am not sure if English speaking Canadians would be seen as international per say, but Nash is well spoken. I think a Spanish speaking spokesperson would be a big deal for international cache. I hope he continues to do his blog or letters he does now after he retires. I'm sure many people would be interested in his insights for years to come.

[TMTTRIO]

Someone told me tonight Manu said he's not going to coach and at this point in time he's going to do some traveling with his family so I don't think you'll be hearing much about him after he retires.

[Rapper]

Going to.join TNT and be a regular guest in the opencourt show then to have a chance to be a head coach of the Heat or the mavs。
