    He's retiring. It's the last season and has to put the house up for sale with sufficient time, and starting to adjust to the loss of income from Spurs.

    He's most likely moving to a smaller but still luxurious house. Gotta be smart with finances....

    He just bought a bigger house in the dominion. Of course he's selling the old one.

    I guess Manu and Billy Bush both have their places up for sale.

    yeah because that is living paycheck to paycheck and that loss of income is going to cause issues with his autopay bills

    lol well maybe he is indeed buying a bigger house, but it wouldn't make sense, he'd want to join a fair long list of former millionaire basketball players that never adjusted their lifestyle and are now broke...

    He's still in the dominion. If you go into the back entrance and take a left on the first street, that's where he lives.

    Family friends of ours are building a house next door to his. He has a massage room in there. I have pictures of his house as it was being built (as well as one with me out front). It's a damn nice house

    After Manu retires, he's going to have people throwing money at him from every direction. He won't be joining Iverson in bankruptcy court, I promise.

    Exactly. Can't feed your family and pay property taxes on a $2M house on a measly $14M salary.

    Yeah I don't think Manu is scrambling for rent. He will be set for life and probably earn as much money as he cares to when he retires from basketball. He is an international brand. I'm sure he'll be less reckless with his money than he has been with a basketball!

    Or maybe he's just moving back to Argentina.

    It would make sense TBH...He's obviously not going to be living in it if he's selling right?

    He could be, I don't know. But he won't have any trouble affording a $2M house. He'll have coaching opportunities, FO opportunities, and broadcast opportunities - all of which will pay well. At least as normal people reckon things.

    But I've always thought he might become the face of the Argentine basketball system, and help take them to the next level. (Not that they haven't done damn well already.) I have no idea of they would pay him a fortune, or if he would do it to give back. But I would think that he would live there, if he did that. But that's a guess - I don't know about his personal situation. Maybe some of the Argentinians here would know. But I don't think him selling his house has any implications for the Spurs' season.

    Unless you can provide some sort of evidence that Manu is a big spender that blows his money on bull and will be broke in five years you are just talking out of your ass.

    Yup. Definitely a sign this is his last season. I think Manu knows more about what he's going to do than he's letting on.

    Publicly, he declares that he hasn't made a decision on his future yet. But I think that's just because he doesn't want the same kind of treatment Kobe got last year. Privately, he's probably already decided that this is it for him.

    /sarcasm... I am not known for humor so I guess it blew right past everyone... thus why I said Ok ok when GSH got on me... probably bad humor from me.

    To be fair, I am not a Manu expert by any means, but Argentina has a few young players in their 20s worth building their program around and Manu has enjoyed mentoring Pato and Nico a lot. Who knows? My sarcasm was bad taste, thinking he's moving to Argentina is actually very reasonable. If the home in San Antonio is going to be an occasional visit home or vacation spot for example, it would make sense to downsize.
