It's up to Manu.

[SPARKY]

TD and TP have brought theirs. Now it's time for Manu G to step it up.

[SequSpur]

We need some stops bro. Dallas Offense > Spurs Offense + Coyote.

[CubanMustGo]

Crap, Manu has to have someone pass him the fucking ball once in a while.

[Cant_Be_Faded]

Kobe agrees with Lamarcus Bryant!

[ALVAREZ6]

We just need defense.


Despite TD's monstrous performance, we are tied.



WTF does it take to beat teams now a days...this year's playoffs are pretty damn hard.


Now that I think about it, what a fucking joke last year was...Denver...5 games, should have swept if it weren't for that 4th quater collapse in game 1.

Seattle. Nuff said, they just suck.

Suns....5 game series.


Damn, what a difference a year makes.

[cheguevara]

Yeah basically this is the Spurs-Suns series of last year.

Except Mavs are the Spurs and we are the Suns :(

[ALVAREZ6]

The more points this game has, the more chances Dallas has of winning.



Keeping it low scoring benefits the Spurs. See: game 1.


Don't see: games 2,3,4

[Cant_Be_Faded]

defense is not going to fucking be here
its a given
its been a given

everything depends on offensive execution

and parker, after his brilliant layup, just screwed us out of 4 possessions in a row when we were up TEN

[Slomo]

A truer thread has never been posted.

And he delivers!!!

Welcome back Manu, we've been missing you!

[orhe]

no shit! he willed the spurs to the win there damn

[bonesinaz]

98>97

Well, it was here when the Spurs needed it tonight. Big time defense by Ginobili and Bowen.

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

Ginobili fucking didn't want to Lose that game...killer steals and defense with clock ticking down at 40 seconds...Bowen came through AGainn with a last second block...it was great to have these guys fighting for the Spurs' lives.

[Mr. Peabody]

Manu did all he could to ensure this victory. It makes up for one of his game-losing turnovers in these playoffs. He still has one more to make up for. On to Game 6!!!

[~Sweetmelody~]

I LOVE MANU!!! :makeout

He kept being aggressive- boy was kobe right "Manu is the key"

[rayray2k8]

He finally found a way to be effective in the game, without scoring a basket.
He truely showed what it is to have a heart of a champion.
Lets get it done fellas, onward to dallas for game 6!! :elephant :flag: :clap

Spurs need to BLOW em out on Friday...all we need is our threes start falling early. and Utilize that Glimmer of Defense we saw today and spread it all out on Friday...Kudos for Tim and Ginobili staying out of foul trouble....Brent took one for the team.

[Dartherus]

I LOVE MANU!!! :makeout

Kobe was F**king right...
It seems that slowly he's going back to the smae Manu of the last year playoffs. Manu is the key, the more difficult the situation, the more important manu becomes...he can become critical in the next games.

[abelle23]

when did kobe said manu is the key?

[Rick Von Braun]

when did kobe said manu is the key?

At halftime.

After the game, all the panelists praised Manu for being a momentum changer.

[~Sweetmelody~]

when did kobe said manu is the key?

At halftime, he mentioned that Manu was key not only on offense but also on defense.

[Dartherus]

At halftime.

After the game, all the panelists praised Manu for being a momentum changer.
The rest of the panelists just jumped into the bandwagon after the game was over, while Kobe had it clear before.
Manu is clearly the kind of guy who tend to shine better in the most difficult momments than in less improtant games, he seems regaigning the shape he had in the last year playoffs.

[WalterBenitez]

Crap, Manu has to have someone pass him the fucking ball once in a while. NVE??
When TP is on the court TD is 1st, TP is 2nd and Manu is 3rd
