12/5 in 12 minutes rank all time for Ginobili's starts?

[Fabbs]

12 pts
5 assists
= Ginobili directly in on 22 points in his 1st 12 minutes of play.

I know GNob has had numerous fantastic games including numerous 40+ pointers, but is this the best 12 minute start in Ginobilis career? (As far as points + assists goes)

Stats Guy or anyone know how to find this info?

No, he scored 24 straight points against Atlanta

I was specifically wonder about his 1st minutes in game but nonetheless...
Yes vs ATL 2008 was in the 1st half in 12 minutes 7 seconds of gametime.
Last 2:27 of the 1st qtr + 9:40 of 2nd qtr.

GNob did not have an assist in that incredible streak of 24 straight so......
Tonights 12/5 in only 12 min means he was potentially on his way to matching that.
We'll never know. Durned injury.

There's a compilation somewhere on Youtube. I always laugh when I hear "Manu Ginobili has outscored Atlanta" after Manu's ownage of the Hawks was completed.

As great as it was, dude is totally crippled now. SMGDH. I hope Stern enjoys this as his ridiculous rules cause Spurs players to fall down to injury. First, it was Bloomberg throwing SJax to the ground and now this. Next thing you know, Crawford is going to punch Timmy in the face during the game and give him a broken nose and then eject him from the game when he says something about it.
