Not many players of Ginobili's caliber would slide to the 6th man role for the good of the team, without complaint... Ginobili did, because he understood that in the long run that's what would help the team win.

so many things....

I'm not really disagreeing with your premise more so than underscoring why Ginobili has a win-share of his own right.

And I'd never think to disparage Manu in any way, shape or form. The partnership formed by Duncan and Manu has been a joy to watch. I don't believe it takes anything away from Manu to recognize the preeminent position that Duncan holds.

I can agree to that because Ginobili himself would be the first to say it. [of course this would be followed by Ginobili pulling out his gold medal from 2004 and telling Duncan "thanks" :lol]

Manu will always have scoreboard there.

What I get out of that article is more confirmation on what should be obvious by now: Manu > Tony

tbh Manu would be 1st if Parker was passing to him more.

I can understand Manu having the great career because of and playing next to Tim Duncan and even Tony but at the same if Manu's just a good role player on this team why couldn't the Spurs have continued winning after he went down with an injury. With the talent of Tim and Tony alone shouldn't they have won more games alone without him?

Magic`s playoff number is insane

Manu has the best Regular Season winning percentage @ .716 and that is what puts him higher than Parker on the combined totals.

Nope, Manu has the best record at both, Parker's playoff record is miscalculated. 79-53 doesnt stand as a .695 but .595.
The writer misstyped on that one.
Manu PO record is 74-43 which is higher than 79-53.

Dallas has become known for regularly winning 60 games in the regular season, but not for winning playoff series.

In the end though, Manu's heart, all-out-style and his will to win are reflected on the scoreboard... and hence the phenomenal winning percentage...
