Manu Ginobili is the best spurs Guard, competitor and Teamate ever but...

[apalisoc_9]

Why do some people here like Sagirl hate him?

Since this is probably manu last year as a spur, please post your favourite manu games..Full games would be appreciated. :tu

[turkish spurs fan]

sagirl may be just 17.

[spurs10]

I don't have any games to post but June 15, 2014 seems to come to mind!

[J_Paco]

No (Tony Parker or George Gervin), no (how do you gauge "competitiveness") and no (Tim Duncan).

Nice try with the trolling topic/thread, though.

[MaNu4Tres]

He was a monster the whole 04'/05' season.

But this game is my favorite of his all time.

I almost forgot manu's eurosteps and just driving to the lane. So sick... Kawhi should watch some of Manu's highlights when he's splitting the defense, he does it so well..

Nazr with 20pts :lol

great post. Manu is undoubtedly the best spur not named tim duncan. The things he could do at every stage of the game was just amazing in his prime. Best all around player I have ever watched.

[lefty20]

Meh, Batmanu can endure this. After all, what does the baseless hate of non-believers mean to one as great as he.

[Arcadian]

To answer your question, people hate him for the '13 finals.

[ElNono]

To be fair, there's probably only about a dozen haters, tbh... in Spurstalk terms, probably about 8 actual posters... half of them likely just hate he's old now...

[tmtcsc]

Manu IS the best guard in Spurs history, most competitive player (ability to raise level of play in clutch or important game winning situations) and ONE of the best teammates ever.

[spurraider21]

despite the statline not being gaudy, this one always stuck with me... the good highlights begin around the 2 minute mark and its just spectacular play after spectacular play. that last behind the back pass to blair :wow

DeJuan Blair was the perfect guy to play with Manu when he was fat it's a shame he gave up the Whataburger and couldn't play after

And about half of them don't really hate Manu so much as they get sick of Apa's incessant click-bait threads. He (and a few others) intentionally throws incendiary shit into the title, or claims that just go way too far, and then sits back and laughs at all the chaos. You know... if you don't agree that XXXX is "The best ever", you must be a hater.

A whole lot of the worst of ST is manufactured, and kept alive through constant, calculated effort.

I know we lost but incredible game from him against 4 Hall of farmers. I forgot how incredible he was. I love how he went at Shaq and I love the bounce between Kobe's legs. I'm going to miss him next year when he's gone.

https://youtu.be/g1pw1fhH38A

These 2 games I remember fondly because even though we didn't win those years Manu played his heart out and I'm sure if he would've been healthy we would've won it all. For me Manu is the definition of 'Heart of a Champion".

[coachmac87]

It's crazy to watch the old highlights of Manu and just be amazed at the things he did on the court. Just such a unique player tbh and a lot of people compare him and Harden and their games are not alike at all imo.

It's also weird seeing how quick he used to be and even with his handle compared to what we see today..

OP is still a bitch with an agenda but I do appreciate the videos from others..we should do these with other Spurs players as well

http://media.gettyimages.com/photos/manu-ginobili-of-the-san-antonio-spurs-shoots-the-gamewinning-shot-in-picture-id80782952

One of my favorite shots. Shows the raw athleticism that can be attained by these guys even in just a "routine" jump shot (it was the game winner, but still). It looked like an everyday jump shot from the game cam, then when you see this angle you see how exaggerated the angles to this shot are. Amazing.

[superbigtime]

Got some goosebumps on that behind back sling to blair at the end of that minnesota game. God Manu was so special. There will never be another player like him. When I see these kind of highlights of his glory games it really sinks in what a shell of his former self he now is.

[Leetonidas]

That regular season game in 2005 against Phoenix where he exploded for 48 will always be my personal favorite

[UZER]

There was one move in Dallas on a fastbreak with Bruce I think, he went behind his back to pass the but when the defender jumped over he wrapped it around to himself. Then when the defender jumped back over to him, he went right behind his back again and passed to Bruce. It was so fast but an amazing instinctual play with flair that only Manu could do. Bruce missed the layup so it's the highlight that never was. I remember being pissed at Bowen for robbing Manu of an amazing highlight.

Love Manu!

With that said, dude can't get it off his own way anymore and Pop won't stop playing him in crunch time. :lol

And they embarrass manu and the spurs without Tim. I'm not sure what your point is.

If he has a good playoff run no one will remember his RS stats.

You already have great RS players in Tony and LMA to make up for Manu.

Lol I don't hate him. I just don't get the Tony vs Manu schtick TBH... and since I stay away from it and think Manu gets too much of a pass vs Tony who gets too much hate... take it as you will..

[HankChinaski]

I can't find it on you tube but the dive out of bounds play leaning forward stretched out then he slings it back for the assist with all that momentum moving forward from the dive. That was an amazing play.

[HankChinaski]

But back on topic. Manu has done some heartbreaking errors in judgment in games that led to losses. He's still an amazing hall of famer that Spurs could never replace with anyone else in the prime years on the team. Spurs would not have been able to sign or trade anyone at the time to fill his shoes.

He's always done everything for the team from sliding to the bench instead of starting to looking to make plays for his teammates instead of himself. He just wants to win

You have now put yourself on the alltime Spurs idiot list.

You are a typical bandwagon fan who knows shit about the history of the organization.
Climbing on board when Duncan arrives and dissing the background. Typical ignorant coward fandom.
Go root for the Dubs now.
Go on, get.

This is mostly from the middle school drama queen fans from outside the city who bring their regional prejudices and the fact that Tony seems to attract a good number of female fans. It's the children.

[TheDoctor]

He was a monster the whole 04'/05' season.

I absolutely love that play. Unreal. Manu's career is filled with small plays in the middle of games that are just absolutely amazing.

Below might be my favourite pass of his. Absolutely ridiculous to pull this off in an NBA game, who even thinks of this pass?

[SpursforSix]

I think this is my favorite Manu assist. Makes the steal on one end, then one-hands a bad pass from RJ for an easy layup.

[diego]

Can't really put in links right now from work, but if you look for Manu vs mavs there are a lot of good ones (06 game 6 he was huge; regular season game in 07 where he destroyed them with Duncan out including dunking all over Diop and Howard; '10 playoffs the game he broke his nose, iirc shortly after he had a drive to close the game out between 2-3 dudes; 2014 game 7 people remember Tony finally catching fire, but Manu had been good all series and has something like 20, 5 ast and 5 stl and just clowned dirk all series long)

[Down Under]

He was on a tear in 2008 season after we won where he scored a few back to back 40 point games and was close to the best player in the league for a stretch there.
