Manu I know you reading this. Retire. nobody wants to see you back

You can take Beckys job if you really cant stay away

Thanks

I want to see Manu back.

We ain't winning a chip this year anyways, so might as well get some more Manu moments.

Agreed. No need to keep ancient role players post Big-2 era tbh

Let em stick around a year if he wants to.

Yup take Beckys job

Chew gum in the 2nd row and nod off here and there

Disagree completely.

Definitely want him back, plenty of fans want him back. It would go a long way imo helping smooth the kawhi to derozan transition having manu there on the court too. He can play limited just like last year

You’re hilarious

Dude is done

Give it up

He shouldn't come back because he would steal minutes from the younger guys.

But the team needs him because he is still one of the best guards on the team.

How fucking sad.

He’s coming back, for better or worse.

nope ... he needs to come back

Or y’all are just the same lame fat faggot

I wish Hater would take his own advice and retire can’t take anymore of this old mans shitty takes.

Spursfans wanting manu to come back dont even sound convinced anymore tbqh

Kinda like when you invite your cousins to a bbq and they ask you can I bring uncle? A 75 year old fossil that will be asleep most of the party. You know. The uncle that wears a cap and sunglasses even at night. :lol

You're a faggot tbh

But i wouldn't mind if he retired

I thought the Spurs did not need Manu last year, but as Manu always does he reinvents himself and finds way to be valuable. This year they really do need him for the SF rotation.

Thread is blasphemous and should be deleted.

Nostalgia has me wanting him back but I would be fine with him retiring. Like TP, it’s basketball wise time to move on. He was better than TP was last year for sure but that does not make him really good.

I’m good either way, I think he’s coming back, but he should be relegated to little or no minutes.

Please delete this thread. We love Manu

you're thinking about tony. he was taking murray's PT... and when he left to charlotte he said white would get an opportunity now.

tony was the one taking up people's playing time while manu was contributing.

Manu, 99.9999999% of Spurs fans want you back for one more year because you deserve to go out with the applause and grateful thank you's for what you did for the Spurs, the fans and the NBA. It's too damn bad Kawhitter didn't have even one trillionth the heart you have or this story might have ended differently. But, make no mistake we want you back for this coming season. The young guys need you around to learn what it takes to be the kind of winner you've always been.

I want him back
At the end of the season he said last year he came back expecting a much smaller role, but then Kawhi and other injuries happening
Ours certainly is a flawed roster, but I'm curious to see what they can do with their role players not forced to carry such a big burden on offense
Manu came up big in a lot of crucial moments last year, I wouldn't mind him playing <20 minutes as a spark off the bench, he showed he can still contribute, can help the young guys and help us transitioning from the Big 3/Kawhi era to what we are going to be

Demar and Walker would hugely benefit from a guy like Manu.
Who is our back up SF? Manu fits that perfectly for us.

He can do everything Manu can do in the court but at an NBA level not over 65 YMCA senior level

Belli is a good back sg or even starter.

Murray/White
Mills/Belli/Forbes
Derozan/Manu
Gay/Bertans/Cunningham
Aldridge/Poeltl/Gasol

Walker should only come up when players get injured. Manu as an assistant alone would be so valuable not to mention he can still play.

As I see things, White would be the player to suffer the most from Manu's return. He was already unnecessarily buried for a year in the G League. I do not want to see him buried behind Manu for yet another year. If it were merely a choice between Manu and Paul for the last seat on the bench, then I wouldn't mind giving a roster slot to Manu. But it isn't. Manu will take court time away from a guy/guys who might represent the Spurs future. As long as Pop has his crutch, he will lean on it, and not use the young guys to the fullest extent. Thanks, Manu, you are one of my favorite Spurs, but it is time to turn the page. Join the coaching staff formally or informally like Timmy; but don't stay on the active roster.

Especially in crunch time, Pop will not heaitate to insert Manu for old times sake

He is 41 this week. It is over.

It really is an indictment on PATFO that there STILL - going into the 2018-2019 season - isn't a player on this team that Pop trusts with the ball in crunch time more than Manu.

Also, I hope Manu doesn't get minutes at SF next year. Literally every wing in the league will abuse him.

manu doesn't need a constant, large amount of carved out PT.

there's no reason he shouldn't come back. this thread should be more concerned with forbes taking up white's / walker's minutes.

unselfish, high bb iq player who doesn't need to rely on physical ability to contribute:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e1aLa56J_7E

last year his old ass put up a positive TS%, VORP. 3.6 DBPM in the series against the warriors.

Manu, no prestes atención a ese pinche boludo tarado hater. Uno más por favor!

manu was amazing last year.
He even had 7 dunks at age 40, 1 short of tony's career total :lol I cant find stats for gamewinners but I'm sure manu had more this season than some guys in their careers. Overall he was only ok on offense, fatigue and soreness are clearly big problems for his shot. On defense he was great though, when you add his leadership and intangibles and consider his salary, the only argument for not wanting him back is a rebuild/tanking/developing youngsters. If walker and white are the real deal he can sit back and be an assistant coach, Id rather play 41year old manu than hope that forbes or paul are going to be positive contributors...

An 80 year old Manu would be better than Forbes will EVER be, tbh.

Considering Manu is still better than two-thirds of the current roster I hope he comes back. As a Spurs fan I can appreciate the value he still brings to the organization. He willed the Spurs to their only playoff win against the Warriors this past playoffs. Not sure why people say he’s done. Tony’s more past his prime than Manu and he just signed a 2/$10M deal. Based on that logic Manu’s probably worth $10M this season.

This is no year to reminisce or cheer a 51 year old touch the rim

Who gives a shit if he can dunk at 61. He can do youtubes of that shit fom his own gym

Our team is in rebuilding mode and nees to move on

Exactly!

Nor did they spend any time really grooming a PG to replace Tony. PATFO didn't want to acknowledge the wheels would ever fall off until the chassis was flat on the tarmac.

as long as ginobli can walk and popovich is the coach, he's gonna always have a spot on the team. I want him to retire because he's got nothing left to prove. He redeemed himself for 2013 in 2014 and it's just been downhill ever since.

Why should a player feel compelled to play until the wheels actually do fall off? NBA players could learn a little from many NFL greats who walked away when they still had plenty in the tank.

I don’t want him to retire, but I do want to use him more sparingly to allow white/walker/Murray to develop

manu at the 3? No way and same goes for beli. In today’s league you need 6’8 sf that can play D. I love Manu, but that won’t fly

C'mon back Manu and coach up these youngsters.

Hopefully one more year of Manu to help weather the storm mah brah :) Little minutes

Uno Mas Manu ! Uno Mas !!!

Manu can stay off he wants. I don't think he would play over anyone if he saw others are better than him.
All the young guys will have to beat him for playing time, and that's fine
And I feel that the player we have to rid off in order for the younger ones to have more playing time is Mills. He plays PG and SG, is undersized for both positions and is overpayed, he is the one that needs to go.

WELP

Come on back, Manu!

Bump I heard Manu is seriously considering retirement so this thread should point him in the right direction, thus out of san anyonio :lmao

You two are the only ones I know who have called, errr desired, for Ginobili to get hurt. (perhaps also rascal).

At some point one of you called for him to get shot.

The point is, those statements cross a line. Your shtick is tiring.
