    Manu played on a bum ankle in the series and was anything but 100%. Some of you true regs know how much I complained about why he was even playing on it, because I felt it was our main reason for losing.

    So how does this cons ute Sasha being a "Manu Stopper"?

    I'm asking in all seriousness, for any player at all that is considered a "Manu Stopper". Because when 100% there is not one NBA player that could contain him one on one in my opinion.

    Explanations?

    Because it's funny to think a guy like this guy can stop a great player like Manu.

    Yeah it is funny to think about a lot of things that are ridiculous.

    However I am being serious.

    That's the point, nobody is serious about it, it's a ridiculous thing It is what it is, Sasha stopped Manu in that series but nobody really expects him to do it again, would be cool though.

    Sasha ain't really "The Machine" either, but he got really hot in a few straight games so the Lakers announcer called him "The Machine" just to laugh at him a bit and it stuck.

    Everything about Sasha is ridiculous, that's why TheMachine is a fan favorite.

    i think Bowen's the only Manu stopper. That's why we keep him on the team!

    The only Manu stopper in this league is Shawn Marion. And even he couldn't do it every game.

    Sasha isn't even a good defender. He's just a goof with jazz hands, dude sucks.

    Yeah, I've seen that alot around too. I watched that first game when he got that name. It was Joel Meyers, old Spurs commentator/current Laker commentator.

    It was ridiculous when he said it, because Sasha was FAR from being a "shooting" machine pretty much his entire career up to that hot streak.

    The other commentator, Stu Lantz, was just laughing and like WTF?

    As Brent Barry would say, Vujacic is the Ma Stopper.

    Oh and hopefully his back heals enough for him to play against the Spurs. Can't wait for him to go against two-legged Manu

    Nobody was being serious when I've seen it on over 5 forums now not including laker grounds or whatever. You guys aren't serious on a Spurs board, is exactly what it is.

    Sounds like you're the only one riled up. Nobody's ing with me. Nice trying to sound tough and big though, your rep speaks for itself around here toad muffin.

    I saw an interview where Sasha said that he nicknamed himself that. Maybe Joel Meyers got it from Sasha.

    the great manu? there is nothing great about manu. He is an above average role player nothing more.

    Not really similar because Patterson actually said it and believed it because of they way he went at Kobe in practice.

    Nobody seriously believes Sasha plays real defense let alone being a "Manu Stopper".
