    10:57 | EMANUEL GINOBILI"Yo soy el culpable"Manu se señaló como principal responsable de las derrotas de San Antonio ante los Lakers en la final del Oeste. "Tengo que hacer las cosas mejor, ser más agresivo", dijo. Los Spurs están 2-0 abajo en la serie y mañana, como locales, buscarán descontar.
    Desde hace ya un tiempo, Emanuel Ginóbili es una estrella de la NBA. Compe ivo como es, el bahiense se hizo cargo de su rol en el equipo y mostró todo su fastidio por sus bajas actuaciones en una serie que pinta muy complicada para San Antonio.

    Con la derrota de anoche (101-71 ante Los Angeles Lakers), los Spurs quedaron 2-0 abajo en la final de la Conferencia Oeste. La serie es al mejor de siete juegos, así que nada está dicho. Sin embargo, Manu se culpó por las caídas en los dos primeros partidos y no puso excusas a la hora de hablar de su nivel.

    "El tobillo no es el problema. No me está limitando. Simplemente estoy jugando mal", afirmó Ginóbili tras el encuentro jugado anoche en el Staples Center de Los Angeles. "Tengo que hacer las cosas mejor, ser más agresivo", agregó.

    Manu terminó como el máximo anotador de San Antonio durante la temporada regular (19.5 puntos por partido), pero sus números bajaron sensiblemente en la actual serie ante los Lakers: 8.5 tantos por juego, con un magro 23,8% en tiros de cancha. "Yo soy el culpable. Si hubiera jugado un poco bien estos dos partidos, iríamos 1-1. Soy crítico conmigo mismo, así que me siento responsable", afirmó,

    Por su parte, Pau Gasol, el pivote español que juega para el conjunto angelino, sostuvo: "Manu no ha estado muy fino, lleva dos partidos que no está demasiado bien y su equipo le necesita". El bahiense tendrá revancha mañana, desde las 22, cuando San Antonio reciba a los Lakers en el tercer encuentro de la serie.

    Odom does that to everyone.

    It would be nice not to hear the crap. I'm surprised that fans such as the spurs would even try to use that as an excuse. I will say that I don't see the long time spurs fans using that for an excuse. So it's definitely not all of them. All teams are banged up this time of the year, you just have to suck it up and play. If Manu is playing, he's ok.

    Its the spurs fault for not having a good enough bench to pick up the slack. Manu made some nice drives to the basket during the game so he is not all that injured. He maybe is not 100 % but he is good enough to be playing so no excuses.

    The first game Popovich has him in street clothes someone might believe he's not using it as an excuse for being shut down.

    Like I said, just BS.

    He was defended well in LA. So far not tonight.

    The good news for LA is San Antonio needs 6 3s in a half to be compe ive.

    Um, it was pretty obvious before the series that the Spurs live off 3's. Good job making yourself look stupid.

    As you can see, it isn't Vujajic's defense

    it's just Manu having mental breakdowns

    not his ankle or anything...he's just been out of it

    The good news for SA is Los Angeles just gave up 6 3s in a half.

    And the defense isn't any different kiddo.

    Sasha wasn't on him much. The first 2 3s were vs. Radmanovich, one was vs. Kobe and one vs. Farmar.

    Excuse me, I don't normally come on here, but why are there so many Lakers fans in here talking trash? Why do you let them get away with it?

    Because this is the best fan forum of all. If you make a big enough ass of yourself you'll be run out. Or else we'll just sit back and wait until the Spurs punk your team out.

    Not true. If you make a big enough ass out of yourself but still manage to not be entertaining you'll be run out.
