manu gets more love here then any PLAYER ON THE SPURS

[porscha]

I'll always support and appreciate Manu forever.

it's a shame for some haters bashing our own player for whatever the reason on their mind instead of showing some true support and showing love and encourage to help them to gets pass the lows.that just makes me sick!

[asababy]

When sometimes Manu did a bad job, most guys started to bash him or say something about the trade . It's ridiculous .

Although he is out of form in recent 3 games, i still support him. Cos i still believe that he is crucial guy in the team , he is also the part of the big 3 .

Aslo i agree with you that his big problem now is his confidence ,but what we can do is supporting him and giving more confidence to him .

Just 3 games , it's ok, we are waiting for you , manu!

[ClingingMars]

In pro sports, love is EARNED.

hahahaha de Soto got pinked!

really?

I think people still need to be patient. I know it's very hard and Manu's looked awful but I've also seen him have games where he looked like the Manu that we love. I'm hoping by the time the end of the Rodeo Road Trip he'll get his rhythm back and all these trade threads will be gone. I still believe in him.

you have six post

you been here a couple years you would know

[SenorSpur]

Since he's never been injured before or never come off any serious downtime, I would guess this situation is all very new for Manu. He's thinking way too much, but he's also trying too hard. When he's having an off night, I like when he picks his spots to attack, rather than forcing the issue. I expect he'll get it together before season's end.

[ducks]

I expect he better if he wants to still be a spur after this season

[porscha]

even manu can not score any points any more, he will always be my favorite player.
for what they had been done for us, I will cherish it forever.
to me, these player's health and happiness means much more then a champion trophy.

Is not a surprise that manu turns tha ball over, but one thing he does after a turn over or a missed lay up is that he hustle to get the ball back either with a block or steal and if you don't believe me look at the next game, this is to you Manu

[TMTTRIO]

By the way we need spurschick to bump the ditka thread for tommorow .

[Doctor J]

Ditto. Thanks.

[Chieflion]

He is a good player when he does not force anything. A true winner.

For my part, all Manu need now is confidence. After watching the last three games, I feel that Manu is losing some of his confidence. When he can't shoot well at the beginning, he came to limit his shooting attempts and try to pass the ball. Even when he make a drive, he hesitated, layup or pass, then he turn the ball over(I know you guys want to mention his turnovers). Checking Tony stats you can find something. Against the Pacers, Tony was 6-16 on shotting with 17 points, Manu was 3-8 on shotting with 8 points. With the same shooting percentage, Manu made half attempts. Against Utah,Manu shot only 5 times and made one, Tony was 2-7 at the beginning but in the end he was 9-18 with 24 points to lead the team. Stats show that when both of the guys shooting poorly, Manu just stopped and tend to pass more. But I remember that when in the past, in such situation, Manu would try to get fouled ,make some freethrows and gradually the game came to him. In the last three games, Manu made 8,11 and 5 shotting attempts , too few I think for him to find the rhyme back.I don't mean that one should keep shotting even with a poor percentage, but these attempts are really too few for one to get back to his way, especially the 5 attempts against Utah, unbelievable.
.

you make a good point here. Tony does get more leeway in trying to get his game back on track and it helps having Tim by his side at the same time. That's Tony's game and it suits the Spurs. What makes Manu's game special when 100 percent is how efficient he is. Since coming back some expect manu to be that same player not realising the mental hurdle he has to overcome is his biggest challenge now.

that's what i've noticed too. Manu looks to be thinking too much and the sad part is attacking the rim when a laneway is open doesn't seem to be part of that thinking. IF his 3-point shot isn't falling which seems to be his first option these days.. leads to the trying too hard part. Coming back from foot surgery it really shouldn't surprise Spurs fans.

That's why im not a big fan of Manu playing on the 2nd unit with-out Tim or Tony on the court. Thats just adds more pressure on him to perform. If things arn't going well for him then his confidence takes a hit at the same time. Pop of all people knows it's a work in progress. Why not let Manu build his confidence and get his ryhthm back to his old self before putting him in that position.

[angelbelow]

you know why people talk trash to manu? because for some people, spurstalk is where they come to . so who ever plays badly they'll . dont get me wrong, everyone es, but some just choose to do it here.

You just don't trade Manu Ginobili.

This idea is pissing me off at the same point as the Tony haters that haven't yet realize his fabulous value...

We have to get a big, OK. but that's all
