whoever hackd shaq is mvp
TP all the way, he’s been amazing, so did Duncan...Manu not so much, I love the guy, but he has to get his shit together, he is either hurt or he’s just off struggling at the wrong time...Spurs going to need the BIG 3 to play big like they did in game 1 and 2.
After game 5 the stats are :
T.Parker : 40.5 min 57/109 FG 52.3% 2/4 3Pt 50% 32/42 FT 76.2% 3.4 Reb 7 Ast 3.2 To 1.4 Stl 0 Blk 29.6 Pts
T.Duncan : 39.8 min 52/105 FG 49.5% 1/1 3Pt 100% 19/31 FT 61.3% 13.8 Reb 2.6 Ast 2.8 To 0.8 Stl 2.4 Blk 24.8 Pts

tim. was great all throughout the series esp game 1. his control of the boards was awesome considering he had to contend against shaq and amare.
It is close between Tim and Tony.
I vote for Tony.
Tim was great but it wasn't a surprise.
I didn't know Tony could be that good on both end of the floor. He used the Suns inability to guard him perfectly and was the key player in the series.
I voted Parker, but could be Duncan as well.
Manu won the first game, was good 2nd and 3rd, but disappeared in 4th and 5th. His minutes went down too though.
But like people said, it was a team win.
TP all the way!
The real MVP is actually Gregg Popovich. :)
You still have to outscore opponent to win a game, so it's Tony, no doubt.
People are being a bit hard on Ginobili. He was studly in the first three games. Game 4 he was good compared to how others played. In Game 5 he wasn't great offensively but he did good defensively and limited his turnovers, which had been plaguing him all series. Overall, Ginobili had a successful series. No doubt better than last year against the Suns.
I gave the edge to Tony. Ginobili would be runner-up for sure. This is such a tough one because it is a team effort but if you have to give it to one I think Tony really played with alot of emotion and heart in this series.
I love the other guys, but Tony was bigtime for the entire series.
Manu was not that bad but he cannot serioulsy be in the contest.
I am sure he will prove more valuable/decisive vs the Hornets - if he is healthy :(
Manu gave us the 2-0 lead. He literally won G1 for us.
Can't understand you guys....are you just looking at G3 and G5 to decide?
We're looking at the whole series, not just game 1.
It has to be Tim Duncan. He made the miracle 3. He dealt with both Amare and Shaq. He was the most consistent.
Parker was awesome but he only had to deal with Nash. come on
Manu.
I did watch the games. Manu passed the ball to a wide open Tim Duncan, who was the third option (Finley was number 1) in that particular play.
If Tim was an option, I am pretty sure Pop made them train that play at least a couple of times.
I am not saying Manu was so much better than Tony/Tim, I am saying that current result of this poll (2 votes for Manu vs 99 for Tony) makes no sense unless we only have short term memory.

I don't think the fact that manu doesnt have a lot of votes is any knock on him this round, the truth is that parker and duncan, but especially parker, played lights out. Manu played well too, but i dont think he was the MVP of the series, just an important part of the winning combination
