And he only takes 11.7 shots per game vs Kobe (20.6) or Wade (19.6).Quote:

We make 1 of 2. We're ahead by 2 and Dallas has the ball with 14 or more seconds left. There's a decent chance they can tie the game.
And this whole issue is moot if Ginobili misses the 3 ten seconds earlier. Dirk is shooting for the lead.

I thought Manu has been pretty consistent this season. Also if you look at his stats he's having one of the best years stat wise with the almost the fewest amount of minutes. It's just good to see him play like the old Manu again who can take over a game when needed.
It's luck of the draw. Manu usually doesn't force many bad shots so shot selection generally isn't a problem. When you drive hard to the basket or take a lot of threes you're bound to miss several in a row, even if you shoot 75%. He's no more inconsistent than anyone else so far this season.
it´d be stupid if we blame manu for that foul for the rest of his career,cause he does that all the time,he plays with that energy.He´ll always try to get a block or a game winner down the strech.Quote:

So lets be fair.at the end of the day he have done more good things tham bad things for the spurs.

Cause you just happen to tune in to those times when he's playing inconsistently.................................... .................................................. ...............no seriously, Manu runs fast and hard all the time. If he, aw hell, why am I explaining this to you, Pop knows when Manu's vibrating like those little metal and plastic football players while he's sitting on the bench, needing a industrial proof velcro to anchor him down.Quote:

If Manu has uncaged little Manu, turnovers will make you swill your beer and roll your eyes not to mention Manuito throwing a pass to a 9 ft. Tim Duncan or to a Tony Parker that ain't there at all and then that's when he ends up playing super D.
Then you'll see him take a break on the bench with that pensive look on his face.
I wouldn't have it any other way.

It all goes back to the one mistake he made his whole life. You are an asshole.
you're an idiot. how can you blame manu. sure he fouled dirk. but he also sank the 3 on the previous play to give us the chance to win.Quote:
