Manu is a warrior.

I'm sure there are going to be people bitching and moaning about this. Calling Manu irresponsible, stupid, etc. The funny thing is if he had done this for the Spurs, everyone in here would be calling it heroic. Think about that.
This is something that was monumentally important for Manu. I mean, when the hell was the last time people heard about Manu crying? If you can understand that, then there should be no reason why people here can't get over the accidental injury.
Manu cried helplessly when he finally decided not to play.
I really understand,though I'm not from Argentina
love you forever MANU GINOBILI
get well soon
always be along with you
ofcourse they would. they are spur fans, not fans of argentina. Anyways I am happy for Manu that he at least got to play most of the games, except the last game to win the bronze. He should be proud and happy for himself and the team. He's a very passionate person so I see why he would want to play even though he physically couldn't. That same passion is the same force that helps drive the Spurs. Love you Manu, now getting ready for the NBA season.Quote:

I understand the importance...but is it worth sustaining an injury that might be the end of Manu as we know him?Quote:

I would disagree. I am a Spurs fan yes but I don't fault Manu for wanting to play for his country. To me, representing your country is still one of the greatest honors a person can have. I hate that he got hurt but I don't begrudge him for it.Quote:

That being said, not many teams (outside of USA) over the years have won a Gold Medal and then came back the following Olympics and still won a medal. The fact that they've now ended in the top 3 for the past 2 Olympics is something. Ginobili just needs a little perspective :)
That being said, this injury better not be serious. At least it happened now and he can get the rest he needs. What if he ended up reinjuring it in a couple months when the Spurs will be deep into the regular season?
yeah but I can understand why Spur fans are just upset at this whole situation. I don't fault Manu for wanting to play. I see why manu wanted to play, but he was hurt to begin with. Now he is hurt probably worse because he played. Now we Spurs fans have to suffer without him for a while until he recovers at the beginning of the season. And that is just a hope that he recovers at the beginning. Hopefully this does not linger on all season. I want a healthy Manu for the playoffs next year. Because a healthy Manu can make all the difference. And I can honestly say that If Manu didn't play in these olympics I would have been happy. Does that make me a bad person? I don't think so. It justs maks me a Spurs fan. :lol So basically I understand why he played for Argentina, it just sucks he got hurt.Quote:

Oh, he has more than enough. :) This team was realistic from the start. They knew winning the gold would be difficult, and were aiming for a medal. Manu said afterwards that while bronze isn't gold, it's infinitely better than leaving the Games empty-handed.Quote:

Oh, and I love Chapu's response whether his injury bothered him during the game: “At the end, it was killing me, but who cares?” he said. :lol
Well they got the bronze congrats!
their coach is worse then french coach
trying to dress him
I wonder if the coach asked him to dress.......
I hope he did not tell kobe there is no crying in basketballQuote:

"We came in this morning knowing Manu would not play but then we saw him putting the uniform in the locker room, silently as Manu is,” Hernandez said.
“He put his bandages in his foot and no-one said anything. He joined his team-mates in a warm-up and he tried out his foot for 10 minutes but he felt pain and he went back to the locker room, got changed and started crying.
The Spurs need to bite the bullet and do whatever it takes to get Manu back to 100% even if it means an operation that will keep him out this season. No sense him breaking down again in the playoffs and you know you can't slow him down. Without him this season we will be lucky to make the playoffs.
It's Manu. Do you think ducks cares? Manu could die for him tomorrow and ducks will complain about the inconvenience of reporting the situation. :rollinQuote:
