ARG - Manu has to chill out during his recovery
BUENOS AIRES (FIBA/NBA) - Manu Ginobili carried the flag for Argentina at the Opening Ceremony of this year's Olympics and then helped propel his country to an appearance in the semi-finals.
Ginobili isn't having quite as many thrills these days, however.
The veteran guard recently had an operation on the ankle injury that forced him out of Argentina's semi-final defeat to the United States and kept him from playing in the bronze-medal win over Lithuania.
Ginobili is now at home resting and recovering, hoping to be ready when the new NBA season tips off.
"I am very surprised at how I´ve reacted," Ginobili said.
"I have always been hyperactive but I knew this time I had to be patient. I spend my days at home, watching films - all sedentary, really."
Ginobili usually makes recommendations on certain plays to run during a game.
Now?
"If I had to recommend a film that I have watched, I would say "Gone Baby Gone".
"It´s not a recent release, but I´m watching everything, recovering time.
"I also watched the Davis Cup. It was recommended to me to have my leg up as much as possible and that is what I´m doing. Then I use the crutches and every so often I go and look up something on the internet."
Ginobili is, quite simply, being patient in the knowledge that his ankle will eventually heal.
"I know I will need to go little by little in terms of recovering," he said. "Although I don´t notice any pain, for the time being I can´t put pressure on my foot.
"Tomorrow (Tuesday) I will have the cast off and then I will slowly start the recovering process.
"I am calm, filling myself with a lot of patience and thinking of doing things well to return to playing."

yeah lets watch movies instead of nba tapes to improve
I love how he stays in touch with his fans. It's pretty cool that an elite athlete does that, and he does it even when he's not laid up recovering from surgery.was reading the same article on FIBA.com! he has been VERY active posting on some threads on his own forum as well
