No he didn't :lol Stop talking out of your ass. In Game 6 Reggie was 2-13 for 8 measly points. Rik Smits and Dale Davis saved the day and forced Game 7. Smits couldn't miss in that game. You're talking about Game 4 when Reggie hit the last second three to knot the series at 2-2 but after that he stunk it up.
And when it comes to clutch what the hell else does Reggie do besides shoot the ball? If the guy isn't scoring he's absolutely WORTHLESS. Is he gonna play defense? NO!! Is he going to rebound? NO!! Is he going to be a playmaker? Is any team going to put the ball in Reggie's hands and say go make a play for us or get your teammate an open look? NO!!
I'll take Ginobili in a Game 7 every single time over Miller.
Re: Buck Harvey: Hard to deal? Kobe is not the exception (Manu Story)
I rectified my statement. I am allowed to do that. I got it wrong.
However, the argument has gotten skewed. It was asserted that Manu was the greatest clutch player of all-time and I've mearly been debunking that theory. Whether or not Reggie played defense, ran the offense or rebounded is moot. He made numerous clutch plays to win games and the fact that he didn't win championships doesn't diminish his ability to win a game in the final seconds.
Re: Buck Harvey: Hard to deal? Kobe is not the exception (Manu Story)
Sometimes I think these guys are saying this stuff just to push buttons. They know damn well Ginobili is not the clutchest player in the history of the game :lol :lol
And if they're being serious then they're idiots.

like Shaq always sais about his FTs: I make them when they count. Manu does the same: he makes them when they count,but not only FTs, also layups, dunks, 3 pts shots, ect.
I AM NOT dissing Manu. I think he's incredible, awesome, amazing, wonderful, etc etc and I would never trade him from this team. I've never had more fun watching basketball than when watching Manu play.
However, let's get what Buck said straight:
"...the fourth quarters of the last road games in each of the Phoenix, Utah and Cleveland series last season, he averaged about 15 points."
So he averaged 15ppg in the 4th quarters of 3 games, not the entire playoffs.
Just putting that there for accuracy's sake.
Re: Buck Harvey: Hard to deal? Kobe is not the exception (Manu Story)
Manu is the balls!!
He is hands down, the most underrated player in the game.

Yes Reggie can shoot better than him but if someone is guarding him then what will Reggie do? He doesn't pass well, he can't dribble and he sure can't take a charge or steal the ball either.
You're right. It's kind of hard to do those things at his age from the broadcasting booth.
Re: Buck Harvey: Hard to deal? Kobe is not the exception (Manu Story)
I can't think of anyone, outside of Jordan, that I would want on the court more in the 4th quarter than Manu.
And not just for his scoring.
For chrissakes, we have an All Star, finals MVP point guard! And who do we have running the plays at crucial moments in playoff games? Not the All Star/Finals MVP...but some guy from Argentina coming off the bench.
That DEFINES clutch.
Look it up.
Re: Buck Harvey: Hard to deal? Kobe is not the exception (Manu Story)
And just to make it plain. I'm not dissing TP.
I'm, in fact, praising him.
For TP, with all of his talents and abilities, to realize what he has in Manu...and give the ball to Manu in those clutch moments, shows a maturity far greater than his years. Would other All-Star point guards be willing to let someone else run the team in clutch moments?
Well, maybe... if they had Manu. :)
