Series was all about Manu

[dbreiden83080]

I'm not going to trash him because i know he is hurt but this is so hard to accept. If Manu was just healthy, we beat this team, there is no doubt of that in my mind. 20 pt lead in game 1 when he was awful. Win huge in the one game he is great. Had a million chances to win this game tonight with him doing nothing at all out there. Kobe can do his thing but if Manu is Manu we would have buried this ing team in 6 games

!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I agree and as i said i am not trashing the guy it is just hard to accept knowing what we are when he is right

[MaNu4Tres]

Or if a shot could fall for us or if we can box out... We could be up 3-1 even with an injured Manu

[TDMVPDPOY]

healthy or not, he still put 30 on the lakers in game 3, and went and lay a egg in game 4 jus like game 1 and 2. IM tired of his inconsistency

trade his ass when we are rebuilding

Manu played like but they still could've won if the didn't give up so many rebounds in the first half. 20+ first half points is a ing lot. If they even cut that down by 6 by grabbing 3 rebounds they would've won.

I know Manu is banged up. But he's been feeling really good since before Game 2... "the best he's felt in weeks." according to him. So, please don't just blame the series on Manu's injuries.

And a lot of things have gone wrong.. not just Manu.

Barry took up Manu's scoring load. Manu took only 8 shots.

I'll blame the series on Ginobili not showing up, and for Pop for some reason jamming his head into a log.

He has had 3 games in this series where he was non-existant. There is not one player on the Lakers that should be shutting him down, i feel he is hurt quite badly but he is such a warrior he is doing what he can but it wasn't enough, sadly.

Kinda makes you think back to early spring when Pop was running him 40 minutes a night in those regular season games...

He was much more hurt in the Hornets series than he is now. But whatever, you want to think is cool.

Pop for some reason jamming his head into a log.

For some reason? He looked over and saw Phil Jackson standing there, same different verse.

[ElNono]

After game 3, I think he's just on a slump.
That said, at least he had that good game 3, otherwise this would have been a sweep.
Now, if we could get at least 1 ing *decent* game from the Finley/Horry combo...

he did not look hurt
he looked passive alot
especially in second half tonight

I don't buy that, his play proves it, this is not a defensive team, they are fine on D but they are really on offensive team. Manu has played so bad the whole series. It is what it is but for me his injuries cost us the series.

I'm not going to blame it on injuries because he could at least make better decisions but if that was the case why did Manu go get an MRI on his ankle Saturday. Obviously it was bothering him enough to get it looked at. No matter what he's been killing our team.

[Don Quixote]

Manu, and the Spurs in general, just weren't good enough against the Lakers.

L.A. was a bigger, stronger, younger, more athletic team with better players, as the series proved. The Spurs will have to get younger to match them.

[loveforthegame]

Finley gave Manu some bad gatorade to mess his game up or something. I wouldn't be surprised if we hear Finley stuck his foot under Ginobli in a practice so he'd hurt his ankle again. Just another way for Finley to screw the Spurs chances of winning.
