You don't want a freeze frame........ball was out of bounds. :hatQuote:

He's the king of intangibles..
balls to the wall
x factor!
I jumped off my couch after he saved it, I just knew something good was going to follow that. Spurs just werent going to be denied tonight...this whole game was also a great example of how Manu's value on this team goes way beyond scoring.
It wasn't.Quote:

Very few players in the league can miss every single one of their shots and still contribute.

LOL i just can't believe he nailed Hill w/ that pass. that's just amazing.
Man - that is SO awesome!
lol it wasn't out of bounds but it was a travel.
I thought it was a self-pass but then the replay from behind the play showed the ball grazed off of Dice's elbow. Manu really sold his body out and went horizontal on it, though.
If there was ever a play that was made purely FTW, it was that one.
thats fucking sweeet
I didn't see that on the replay but I figured after some of the calls on Blair we deserved one.Quote:

Last time I checked you can't pass the ball to yourself. Then again it could have glanced off of Dice but it so close that it's hard to tell either way.
Such an incredible play. Ginobili has a "ten straight bonehead turnovers free" card from me after det one.
:lol:lol:lolQuote:

Yeah, I was thinking similarly..."got away with that one.. but he was fouled on his arm on the drive...so it all evens out." Then, FoxSW showed one angle zoomed from the other end of the court (Spurs bench end) and that angle showed the ball skim off McDice. It was very fortunate, though.Quote:

Even when Manu has an off night, he should always be in there at the end of a close game. He has what it takes and as Pop has said many times, without Manu we'd only have 1 Championship.
It was clearly off Dice's hip. Clean play. Great play. :toast
:lol @ Manu's Twitter:Quote:
I wanna play OKC again soon. Percentages r w/me. 0/18 in 2 games!
I'm convinced....Manu has ESP.
hey thanks for supplying the gif man!Quote:

Wow that stat is a stinker. He'll pump in 30 points when they meet again. Book it!Quote:

that was dope.
and it clearly changed directions, so definitely not a self pass.
i watched the espn highlights maybe 40 times in 10 mins man i cant get over that play of manu one for the book baby manuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
0/18 last two game against OKC percentages definitely on your side Manu :lol
yeh that, here it isQuote:

Look how George keeps waiting the ball (hands open) after the very last moment. The Spurs are totally in sync (in terms of passing) with Manu this season.Quote:

I think Manu should be more of a passer than a shooter. Manu's either on fire or terrible, and their is no in between.
Incredible!
That was awesome
I simply love this. Not only does he lay out to get it, but he knows right where George is! Manu may have the best 0-10 game in the league.Quote:

Thanks for the giff! Well done!

Doesn't matter, as long as he launched himself from inbounds. That ball is live until it touches something or the ground.Quote:

He knows the plays, and there would be a man in the corner on that play. I don't even know if he knew it was George, but he knew it was someone. Big ups to Geroge, btw, for staying put, and not reacting to the bad initial pass/miscommunication btw Manu and Dice. If he freelances, that ball goes out on the side.Quote:

amazing gutsy play. seriously how lucky are we to be blessed with this guy. Hes 0-10 and yet coming down to the final seconds I still want the ball in his hands.....its rare a player can impact a game so much on a night when he cant buy a bucket.
tremendous win, bigger than the lakers IMO
No we only need to bring mookie back to the Manu camp . . .Quote:

P.S.
FkLA, your sig is extremely disturbing.
Are you mentaly ill or just a rotten phedophile?
Lol at those who wanted to trade Ginobili. He and Hill are my favorite Spurs. What Manu brings to the team can't be replaced and even when he doesn't score he knows how to help bring the team a W.

Way to go MANU.....let's keep the winning streak going.
