    Manu not playing in Game 1 was just another notch in Pop's Greatest Hits - 2010/2011 Collection.

    No big deal.

    The OP makes a good point actually. Rondo's injury in fact appeared to be worse than Ginobili's. One could legitimately make the argument that the Spurs' first round demise should be blamed on Manu.
    Manu wanted to play, Pop held him out....

    Pop/Manu/whoever should've made sure he played in Game 1. We are probably playing the Thunder if he plays in Game 1

    The situations were different.

    Celtics were down 0-2, and they were in desperate situaion. So Rondo had to play even though his elbow might have been worse than Manu's.

    Manu missed Game 1, not because he was a coward, but because Pop might have thought they could win Game 1 without Manu, or it was not worth risking Manu's further injury.
    More to the point, Pop undervalued just how good Memphis was, thinking they could win w/o Manu. You see Rondo out there playing with torn elbow ligament (just reported) and know that Manu wanted to, could have, and in hindsight should have, played. Most of the decisions, moves, and buttons Pop pushed pretty much blew up in his face end of season and postseason.

    Just going back to a post where it said that if Gino wanted to play, Pop couldn't stop him. Last time I checked, Pop is the coach. He sets the lineups and he puts players on the floor. Gino could have suited up and sat on the bench, but if Pop doesn't call his number, he can't get on the floor plain and simple.

    By the way in a recent interview Manu said it's been fractured all this time.

    Injury. At the end of the regular stage, Ginobili suffered an elbow injury. "Last Wednesday, the medical staff of San Antonio I had the last MRI. The fluid is reabsorbed and the small fracture of the humerus is welded at 85 percent. I have to be doing nothing for 3 weeks and then begin slowly, "he said.

    I have no doubt Manu was legitimately injured. I'm going to get flamed for this but his injury is a direct result of casting God out of his life. Tim and Tony had injuries as well, but their strong faith pulled them through and they didn't miss any playoff games. Manu turned his back on the Lord, and as a result the Lord turned his back on him.

    Thats him, oh well I am not but thats his life and injury has notta doing with being an athiest...... He hurt himself because he did, it will happen to a god fearing man or an athiest. GOD FEARING MEN HAVE DIED in worse situations, it's life and when the lord pulls your card he does.


    BTW was he not an athiest when he nearly won MVP in 05 finals? I guess GOD got him outta the because he was then and gave it to TIM!

    You don't have to agree with me, but personal attacks are unnecessary. I have my beliefs, you have yours.

    SC, I don't mean to be rude but it's hard to read your posts because of the poor grammar and syntax. If you are foreign then I apologize.

    So did they know it was fractured the whole time or only just saw it in the last MRI he had?

    Manu was probably our best player of the series and it seems that he played with a fractured elbow. What excuse do the rest of the players on the team have for their piss poor performance? I'm not real happy with most of the players on the team after that showing.

    Nah, if God were really up there and angry, he would have either deformed or made stillborn one of the Ginobili twins. Why go for a pussy little thing like a cracked elbow when Manu turned his back on Him?

    God sees everything. The quote was actually before the 2008-2009 season. Since then our boys have been irrelevant. Coincidence?
