Usually, an MVP does that an entire season.
Good for him anyway.
how cool was that? its true, he has single handedly turned this team from a mediocre team essentially at the bottom quarter of the NBA to a team capable of beating Anyone. if thats not a true MVP i dont know what is. scoring, playmaking, leadership and heart, intangibles, this man is as good as they come.

Yup, you could hear the chants from the TV. It must have been amazing to see him play live.
Nice gesture, but if you take into consideration the entire season Tim is still the MVP of this season. Imagine where the Spurs would be without Duncan's first half of the season performance.
Manu is doing what Tony did last season... Hopefully we can have all 3 in a good level by season's end
One thing that occurred to me after the game: Pietrus got knocked down that one time on the three point attempt, missed two of the FT attempts, and TOTALLY disappeared from the game after that. When they started knocking Manu down, he just went at them harder. You can't teach that. You either have it, or you don't.
missed to many games, wont be in mvp equation...just look at the seasons duncan missed out on mvp where he missed a dozen games or so and puttin up mvp type numbers
i know he wont even be close to getting the MVP in reality, but as spurs fans we have to be able to acknowledge what this guy has done for us, knowing that he will go largely unrecognized in the NBA world. when hes 100% like he is now hes literally as effective a player as wade, kobe, lebron, anyone in the world, and he wont ever be seen as such except by those of us who sees what he does on a daily basis.
I believe anyone who watches Sportscenter will know.
bull , they will show a 8 second clip and say 'ginobili 43 pts. OOOHHHHH DID YOU SEE LEBRON TONIGHT, 28 POINTS WHAT A GOD HE IS!!!!! AND THE LAKERS!!!!! DWIGHT HOWARD!!!!! DID YOU SEE LEBRON AND THE LAKERS??? DWIGHT HOWARD!!!!!!!
A FUKKIN MEN!!!!!!! Stop hating on Tony people he did this for us last year too and Tim this first half this year! Gino is on another level right now, but we need all three on a level if we are to compete for anything.TRUTH.COM!!!!!
Yep, you can hit shots all year long and get numbers, but when the pressure is on only the true ones show up and take it to that other level, he is one of THEM!!!!!!!!
This.
Unfortunately![]()
I liked ginobili's response to the MVP chants even better. He said he didn't like it and he's not even close to being the MVP, but still feels honored that the fans respect him.
Cool story bro.
did yall see tims face when they started chanting mvp lmao
The man has absolutely no ego. Even with all he's accomplished, and how little he gets recognized for it, he just plays the game the right way. What the is wrong with NBA fans not holding up guys like him as a role model? Not once have I heard a contrary remark from Manu with regards to his teammates (who often let him down), or his coach (who stripped him of starter status during several of his prime years).
Respect earned.
Any videos of that ? , the match wasn't aired on Argentina![]()
Calm down, NBA is just a show, Manu is not selling enough posters to be noted by the greedy administration.
The thing that ALWAYS impressed me the most about Manu is how he acts like he's been there before. His reaction after he put KG on his ass after that monster block explains it all. He's the epitome of letting the game do the talking.
I hate Jim Rome, but the man gave Manu some major props for this.

for those facebook users.
Tony was great but his performance wasn't enough good to be the NBA MVP.Manu is playing very close to Lebron in the last month.
Yeah, he's an impressive top 5 NBA player right now !
This guy is just too good when healthy. Can't wait to see him in PO
When TP comes back, we'll be again become a three-headed monster. The playoffs would be very exciting to watch. I won't fear even the lakers. Go spurs!
