don't know if this was posted yet. i saw this in the manuginobili.com site. These are Manu's takes, which appeared in the March 27th issue of ESPN mag.

Class Clown: "Brent Barry. He's a funny dude- the jokes he's got, the way he answers questions. Sometimes we're talking seriously, and he'll just come up with a funny line."

Most Likely to Succeed?: " The two youngest players we have are Tony Parker and Beno Udrih. Tony is already succeeding, so he doesnt count. Beno is going to be a good point gaurd in this league for years because he's solid and does everything good.

Best Dressed?: "Bruce Bowen is always in a suit and tie. All the rest of us are more relaxed."

Worst Dressed?: "I Don't know if it means worst, but the guy who dresses the least elegantly is Tim Duncan.All he ever wears are jeans and sneakers."

Prom King?: "The leader on this team is Pop, Gregg Popovich. We don't have a leader in the locker room who's always talking or trying to show us the way. Sometimes everybody has something to say, but the one with the last word is usually Coach, which is probably as it should be."

Best Looking?: "Tony Parker for sure. He was voted top 50 in looks by People magazine. So it's got to be him."

Bully?: "Bully? You're killing me with these crazy American words! But i asked around, and my teammates tell me it means someone the picks on others. And you know what? That's me!"

Class Nerd?: "Bruce Bowen reads alot, He's always studying, and now he's trying to learn Spanish. He's real into books."

Mr. Congeniality?: "There are plenty of nice guys on this team. It always seems when my family comes here or my wife's family comes, they all fall in love with these guys. They always say hi and make everyone feel important. It's the whole family thing. That's one of the reasons I'm so glad to be here. Well that and winning."

Yea right, Gino! :lol

At best I'll give him "pest" since he likes to mess with people when he is injured and sitting behind them.

From the title of the thread, I thought Manu had announced that he was going to go with Larry Johnson's "belt" look from the 1999 playoffs.

My psyche is glad to know I won't have to endure that.
