Barbosa talks shit about manu, bowen

[Amuseddaysleeper]

That came yestarday, from uol, sports:

Short version in english:

Leandro and Manu take it very serious when comes about the classic knowledge who says: Brasilians and Argentinans hate himselfs when they play any kind of sports...

"Well, im brasilian an i hate argentinans just because they born on Argentina, its comum sense." That just me...

Leandro said to UOL Sports that he dont like Manu, and sure, Manu dont like Leandro, he said we barelly look in the other eyes, and i dont know why, i just dont like the guy...

Well, Leandro added some posts about the semi-finals against SAS, calling Manu and Bowen out...

Link, but this news was wrote in portuguese...

UOL esportes,

“Quando Brasil e Argentina estão na disputa, até em peteca teria ânimos acirrados”, prega o clichê esportivo na América do Sul.


O armador Leandrinho, do Phoenix Suns, e o argentino Manu Ginóbili, do San Antonio Spurs, levaram bem a sério a rivalidade e a transportaram para o milionário circo da NBA.

Nesta quarta, o brasileiro admitiu que não tem simpatia pelo astro argentino e que o sentimento é recíproco. “A gente não sé dá mesmo, um mal olha na cara do outro”, contou. “Não sei bem por que é assim, mas a gente não se dá.”

Certamente contribui para o desafeto o fato de Spurs e Suns serem as potências do Oeste, ao lado do Dallas Mavericks, no momento e de terem se cruzado nos mata-matas duas vezes nos últimos três anos em duelos acirrados. E a equipe de Ginóbili ganhou os dois.

O último confronto, pelas semifinais da conferência no mês passado, foi marcado por uma incessante polêmica. Os atletas dos Suns acusaram San Antonio de “jogo sujo”, tendo o ala Bruce Bowen e o mesmo Ginóbili como principais alvos.

Segundo Leandrinho, Ginóbili só é bem aceito em San Antonio. Fora da cidade, ele teria problemas. No confronto das semis, a grande maioria da mídia norte-americana de fato se colocou ao lado de Phoenix.

A antipatia com os vizinhos, porém, termina aí. O armador disse que conversa sem problemas com o pivô Fabrício Oberto, também dos Spurs. O veterano também tem boas relações com Anderson Varejão.





Fuck him

[Marcus Bryant]

Spurs didn't need his ass.

[Admidave50]

he's just a bitch, as most of Suns players and fans!

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Fuck him. Scoreboard.

[mVp]

Who the hell is Barbosa?!?

[Strike]

Fuck him. Mr. 6th man of the year can't do shit against the Spurs when it counts.

Fuck him up his stupid ass.

[samikeyp]

Ay vavoso. :)

[manubili]

loser

[iflyabeech]

Scoreboard bitch..u suck!

[TDMVPDPOY]

dude is a tosser ever since he thought he had game by winnin the 6th man award where gino expose his brazilian wax ass....

for the record

gino = 3rings > barboza or any fag on the suns teams = ringless

[dimsah]

He's a bit late to be calling anyone out. Let's see it on the court! Next year that is, because the SPURS are the 2007 NBA champions.

[Extra Stout]

So that is what it looks like to whine like a gutless pussy in Portuguese.

[MaNuMaNiAc]

:lol there is a little known fact about these playoffs. The Spurs, with the help of two Argentinians, beat at least one Brazilian in each round. The Nuggets, the Suns, the Jazz and the Cavs all have Brazilian players. No wonder he's pissed :lmao

[Amuseddaysleeper]

the biggest problem for me with barbosa being a whiny baby is that he played horrific in the spurs series


i mean at least SHOW UP before talking shit


what a loser

[ducks]

tp will own his ass again

[TDMVPDPOY]

is he still crying over the injury gino gave him???

[BlackFlagg]

It's a good thing I can't read that. :spin

[AnotherArgie]

I don't know you, but I honestly think Barbosa has some kind of mental problem (read: a little bit retarded).

His face looks always the same, no matter if the suns are having a great night or they're down by 40. He just steps into the court, put his eyes on the ball, and shoot. The guy can't pass, can't dribble, can't do anything else. It reminds me Forrest Gump, playing football.

He'll never be starting in any serious team.

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

Barbosa's just as stupid as Amare.

I don't think Manu even cares or feels the same way. "I don't know this kid."

[MaNuMaNiAc]

"Well, im brasilian an i hate argentinans just because they born on Argentina, its comum sense."

did he actually say that?

[BlackFlagg]

The guy can't pass, can't dribble, can't do anything else. It reminds me Forrest Gump, playing football.

How do you say "pussy" in Portugese?

[ggoose25]

good. fuck brazil

[Nashfan]

the biggest problem for me with barbosa being a whiny baby is that he played horrific in the spurs series


i mean at least SHOW UP before talking shit


what a loser

He had an injury to the left elbow that apparently happened in the Lakers series that none of us knew about. A lot of Suns fans could not understand why he was shooting so poorly. Now we know, he had surgery on this elbow after the season.

[~Sweetmelody~]

Someone needs to translate word for word, because that is a very stupid thing to say....

[Bear Grylls]

Press #1 for English

[Twisted_Dawg]

Maybe he is mad we owned him for 3 minutes before trading his worthless ass.

[AnotherArgie]

Well, the part about "hate" it's not in the article he pasted. It would be nice to have the link to the full article.

[Johnny RIngo]

Spurs could use a guy like Barbosa. After all, we need some bricklayers to build the team a new trophy room.

[Amuseddaysleeper]

i got this off a suns board on realgm

[Johnny RIngo]

Maybe Brickosa's just angry that the Argies and French keep owning the Brazilians every time.

World Cup '06: France humiliates Brazil
NBA: Argentina Spurs eliminate Nene, Brickosa, Flopejao, that guy on the Jazz

Maradona>>>>Pele

[Kori Ellis]

Who gives a damn what Barbosa thinks. The Spurs just won a title.

[Spurs>All]

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

:tu

[judaspriestess]

Fuck him. Mr. 6th man of the year can't do shit against the Spurs when it counts.

Fuck him up his stupid ass.

The only reason that buttwipe got 6th man of the year was to pacify the suns of bitches with some kind of award for their "awesome" regular season.

[TDMVPDPOY]

barbosa has nothing on ginoboli when it comes to bball at international lvl or nba lvl....

dude should just stfu.

[2pac]

Who the hell is Barbosa?!?

That horse that broke his leg and got shot.

[TMTTRIO]

Barbosa can say all he wants about Manu but Manu has now won 3 rings and a gold medal to go along with it :clap

Fuck him
I went to look for the article on UOL and I just read it. It doesn't say anywhere this:
"Well, im brasilian an i hate argentinans just because they born on Argentina, its comum sense." That just me... -This is not in the article.

good. fuck brazil
:rolleyes



I couldn't care less about nations rivalry, I'll defend the Spurs before defending my country but I won't hear lies and do nothing.
I'll try to translate the whole article, although I can't translate some words and expressions.

“Quando Brasil e Argentina estão na disputa, até em peteca teria ânimos acirrados”, prega o clichê esportivo na América do Sul.
"When Brazil and Argentina goes against each other, even in peteca (a crappy game, see wiki: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peteca) people get emotive". Says the Sport cliche in South America.

O armador Leandrinho, do Phoenix Suns, e o argentino Manu Ginóbili, do San Antonio Spurs, levaram bem a sério a rivalidade e a transportaram para o milionário circo da NBA.
Leandrinho, the Phoenix Suns guard and Ginobili, from the Spurs, took the rivalry between the countries very seriously and took it to the mllionaire "circus" of the NBA.

Nesta quarta, o brasileiro admitiu que não tem simpatia pelo astro argentino e que o sentimento é recíproco. “A gente não sé dá mesmo, um mal olha na cara do outro”, contou. “Não sei bem por que é assim, mas a gente não se dá.”
This wednesday, the brazillian admitted that doesn't have affection for the argentinean star and said that the feeling is reciprocal. "We can't get along, we barely look at each other in the face", he told. "I'm not sure why it's like this, but we don't get along".

Certamente contribui para o desafeto o fato de Spurs e Suns serem as potências do Oeste, ao lado do Dallas Mavericks, no momento e de terem se cruzado nos mata-matas duas vezes nos últimos três anos em duelos acirrados. E a equipe de Ginóbili ganhou os dois.
Certainly it adds to the disaffection, the fact that the Spurs and Suns are the west main powers, with Dallas, at the momment. And they met each other in the playoffs twice in the last three years in tough combats. And Ginobili's team won both.

O último confronto, pelas semifinais da conferência no mês passado, foi marcado por uma incessante polêmica. Os atletas dos Suns acusaram San Antonio de “jogo sujo”, tendo o ala Bruce Bowen e o mesmo Ginóbili como principais alvos.
The last meeting, in the West Conference Semifinals in the last month, was marked by a endless controversy. Suns' athletes accused the Spurs of playing dirty, having the forward Bowen and even Ginobili as the main targets.

Segundo Leandrinho, Ginóbili só é bem aceito em San Antonio. Fora da cidade, ele teria problemas. No confronto das semis, a grande maioria da mídia norte-americana de fato se colocou ao lado de Phoenix.
According to Leandrinho, Ginobili is only liked in San Antonio. Out of town, he has trouble. In the West Conference Semifinals confront, most of the north-american media backed up Phoenix indeed.


A antipatia com os vizinhos, porém, termina aí. O armador disse que conversa sem problemas com o pivô Fabrício Oberto, também dos Spurs. O veterano também tem boas relações com Anderson Varejão.
The disaffection with the "neighbours", ends there. The guard said that he talks with center Fabrício Oberto, also of the Spurs, without any problems. The veteran also have a good relantionship with Anderson Varejão.

Thank you. Clarification is always a good thing.

[Avitus1]

Fuck him, he doesn't matter, what matters is championship rings, how many does he got?

[tmtcsc]

Didn't Barbosa win the Kentucky Derby ?

[ObiwanGinobili]

barbosa iss a dumbass. I'd liek him to provie the quote where Manu says he hates him because he's from Brazil :rolleyes.
really - way to ASSume.

I'm sure Manu has reason enough to hate him because he is a friggin crybaby, still talking shit in the middle of his damn fishing trip.

[ObiwanGinobili]

Didn't Barbosa win the Kentucky Derby ?

I thoughtg he broke his leg after the preakness?

[ggoose25]

they should just euthanize him as well

[Texas_Ranger]

Bitch's a bitch.

[ArgSpursFan]

first of all,I have to say that I´m Argentinian but don´t hate brazilians,I actually have a lot of brazilians friends.Going back to Barboza,I kind of understand him being mad at Manu,coze since Manu plays for our National team,Argentina has won most of the games the two nations played.+Barboza plays for the suns who get owned by the spurs every other year in the playoffs,of course the kid is mad a hell.
The only good thing Leandro has on his side is time,since Manu is older tham him,He may have a shot at an NBA championship ot an Olympic Gold medal,but not while Manu is still playing,maybe in a few years.

[exstatic]

Barbosa was fucking weak as hell in the WCSFs. No wonder he hates Manu. Manu can play with the pressure on. What a fucking loser.

[BUMP]

:lol Barbosa

wrong time to talk crap. although i hope this can atleast motivate him to play better whenever the Suns and Spurs meet in the playoffs

[ALVAREZ6]

:lol there is a little known fact about these playoffs. The Spurs, with the help of two Argentinians, beat at least one Brazilian in each round. The Nuggets, the Suns, the Jazz and the Cavs all have Brazilian players. No wonder he's pissed :lmaoDamn....that's pretty funny.




:flipoff Leandrinho

[Fernando TD21]

It seens that people can't read the whole thread before posting.
Viva a ignorância.

[ambchang]

He had an injury to the left elbow that apparently happened in the Lakers series that none of us knew about. A lot of Suns fans could not understand why he was shooting so poorly. Now we know, he had surgery on this elbow after the season.
Most players have mysteriously injuries and illnesses right before playing the Spurs.

[Spurs Brazil]

Leandro and Manu take it very serious when comes about the classic knowledge who says: Brasilians and Argentinans hate himselfs when they play any kind of sports...

"Well, im brasilian an i hate argentinans just because they born on Argentina, its comum sense." That just me...

I'm brazilian and I love Manu and hate Barbosa

FUCK THE SUNS AND BARBOSA

[Spurs Dynasty 21]

hope he's having fan watching Manu/title clips on ESPN

[ShoogarBear]

I'm going to wait for GrandeDavid's interpretation before spouting off without knowing the facts

[MaNuMaNiAc]

It seens that people can't read the whole thread before posting.
Viva a ignorância.Actually I'm pretty sure everyone here understands that Barbosa isn't against Argentinians as a whole, but just against Manu. The problem is most people here think thats just as bad :lol

I don't know why those two don't like each other, but I know I don't give a shit where Barbosa is from, I don't like him because he's on the Suns :toast

[LavaLamp]

By all accounts, Barbosa is a humble, softspoken, easy to get along with person. It's not like him to talk trash of another person. Maybe the translation is not 100% accurate. Not a native Portuguese speaker but "não tem simpatia" does not mean hate, does it?

In any case, the rivalry between Brazilians and Argentinians go way back, shows up more in futbol.

He did disappear in the Spurs series. A week or so later, it was announced that he had elbow surgery soon after the Suns lost in the 2nd round to the Spurs.

[LavaLamp]

By the way, I'm not defending Leandrinho, just trying to make things more clear.


Thanks for the translation.

[NBA Junkie]

Barbosa was fucking weak as hell in the WCSFs. No wonder he hates Manu. Manu can play with the pressure on. What a fucking loser.

But didn't you read the post that said that Barbosa suffered an injury in the Laker series that rendered him useless against the Spurs? :rolleyes

[Fillmoe]

Press #1 for English


:lol :lol :lol

[SpurOutofTownFan]

The whole thing about the rivalry comes from soccer and it's older than anyone of us.

Barbosa actually said that "Manu is only welcomed in San Antonio, and that he would have problems anywhere else in the US" per his article.

REgarding basketball, I guess they've lost against the Argentina national team several times and the other problem might be that barbosa plays Manu's position so he never had a chance at staying with the spurs. Also you have the "6 man of the year" thing going on as well.

It's a little bit of everything.

[milkyway21]

JEALOUSY. :cry

[HJNTX]

Who the hell cares????? He's just a sore loser ..

[tmtcsc]

Manu has many haters...:) Aint that beautiful.

[td4mvp21]

A Suns player bitching about the Spurs? I don't really find this surprising at all.

[tsb2000]

I remember Barbosa now- he was great in those Pirate movies I take my kids to see. :lmao

[TIMMYD!]

screw him

[Solid D]

TIMMYD! Why are you bringing this out of moth balls? Random.

[Spursmania]

:owned

[DJB]

punk ass bitch

[SenorSpur]

Barbosa is terrific from baseline to baseline, but he couldn't hit a late-game shot from the outside if his life depended on it. Plus he's about as dumb as a rock.

[smrattler]

:lol

[peskypesky]

just shows that you can't buy class no matter how much money you have.

[cornbread]

porra!

[Amuseddaysleeper]

:lol I completely forgot about this thread

[TIMMYD!]

TIMMYD! Why are you bringing this out of moth balls? Random.

I'll try to go as far back as possible next time.

[doldrums]

where's the thread about Gervin while you're at it. Go all the way back

[The Truth #6]

This rivalry probably goes back to the 1500s when the Pope divided the continent in half.

Also, let's hope Tiago and Manu are able to look eye to eye, otherwise its going to be a lot of no-look passes.

[SouthTexasRancher]

Sounds like Lady McBarbosa has a wee bit of a jealousy problem going for her...Manu and Bowen, both with 3 NBA Championship Rings and Manu leading his Argentina team to Olympic Gold. Hmmmmmmmm, get over yourself little girlieboy!

[gospursgojas]

This thread is 2 yrs old and Barbosa still sucks and Manu is still better

[angelbelow]

lol

[Xylus]

Pfft, Barbosa's a kick-ass dude. Love that guy.

[phyzik]

Nice bump! :tu

[pawe]

Barbosa may be a punk but his girl is the shit!

[xellos88330]

Blast from the past eh?

[Bukefal]

Barbosa is stupid, the topic is stupid, the story is stupid, this useless rivalry is stupid.

[dbestpro]

Who the hell is Barbosa?!?

He is the illegitimate child of Jane Fonda that was conceived during an x rated movie production.

[hater]

Let's see, barbosa is infinitely inferior player to Manu.

would their abilities be comparable, then it would just be good old fashioned shit talking. but as it is, it's just pathetic and sad

[kace]

how could he like manu ? manu said he didn't give a fuck of a meaningless recognition that was the 6MOY whereas it is the biggest achievement of Barbosa's career. :lol

[Brazil]

lol at these crazy bumps...
