Terry had been looking pretty bad himself as of late. The past few games with Manu have looked more promising. Manu was torching the Mavs in the first half. Big time drop off in the 2nd though.
Manu: 13 pts on 9.4 FG att (1.4 pts per att) 41 FG%, 38 3pt%- 4.1 assts, 3.3 rbds, 1.4 stls, 0.4 blks in 25.6 Min per game.
Terry: 16.7 pts on 13.2 FG att (1.2 pts per att) 43 fg%, 34 3pt%- 3.7 assts, 1.8 rbds, 1.2 stls, 0.1 blks in 33.8 min per game.
Healthy or not Manu is still the better player.
How many rings does Terry have? Zilch.
How many does Manu have? Oh yeah 3 more than the entire Mavericks franchise.
Terry does not have the intangibles needed to win a championship and thats all that matters. Him and the Mavericks will never win it all
Best post in the thread.
Terry is the better shooter but that's about it.
Manu is a better passer, defender, rebounder, etc, etc, etc.
I'd take Manu 101 times out of 100
And even that is doubtful: Manu: 38% 3pt and 89% FT - Terry: 34% 3pt and 85% FT
i would take many over terry, but a crippled manu probably not
This. The stats don't lie, but even if you hate stats, Manu is a far superior player. He won't help your team if he's not playing due to injury (which is Manu's only downfall in this argument), but even a hobbled manu is better then terry (like the Manu we are seeing this season).
WIth Manu, you do not have to worry about him cup checking someone on the opposing team.
Having a hobbled Manu was the death blow to the Spurs repeat effort in 2008. I'm a huge Manu fan, but the fact that his body has broken down at the end of the previous two seasons is a huge factor that cannot be swept under the rug.
This thread is about 2 months old and I dug it up to provide evidence for what I had said when the thread was first around, but it sparked the central debate again!
For some reason that's really funny!
Manu's playmaking ability is what sets him apart from jason. Not his defense imo.
said someone who rates Becky Hammon as the more beautiful woman than Halle Berry.
Half-true, because Terry is a good defender at the 1. As a wing defender, Manu is very superior.
Manu is better than Terry. Plus, he achieved far more in his career.
Terry who?
Why do you say that? Manu wasn't available last year. Harris is never a certainty for May duties with his injury history.
terry has been better the last 3 years.
Not at all. He has been healthier, but when they have both played, Manu has been better.
Who has 3 NBA les in which he played a huge part in winning, especially 2005 against a tough Pistons team. Terry got the Mavs to the NBA finals in 2006 which Dirk was huge in getting that team there, the Spurs would have destroyed that Miami team in the 2006 NBA finals. Easy answer: Manu Ginobili
Right now, probably Jason Terry cuz he seems healthier...but it's pretty close.
Used to be Manu and it wasn't even close.
Ok, now you are convinced? Please someone close this thread.
You mean where people are picking Jason Terry? Sure.
