3 bad games, 2 average games and 1 good game. All in with manu for one more
I'm a Spurs fan first but I'll always be a Ginobili homer through the thick and thin.

The end for you, and Ginobili, is near.
don't have a choice, Spurs can't win without him
Lol, there is a difference between a lack of production, and downright HURTING a team.
Ginobili, is most DEFINITELY the latter.
Hmmmm..I don't know about that one.. Subtract 5 of his eight turnovers off forced passes, and put a "bus driver" in his place..do they win Game 6?
I'm no Manu homer, but nobody else on this team can create their own shot
2 more years 14 mil
Aside from game 5 of the finals, he's been pretty terrible in the playoffs. He occasionally makes a spectacular play in the midst of a terrible performance, that seems to overshadow his bad play that game.
Pop definitely needs to keep him on the bench as much as possible in game 7. We couldn't even count on him to make 2 free throws to help overcome the terrible game he had put together. You could tell he was going to miss that free throw too, because he backed off the line. Every coach in the history of basketball will tell you to stay with your shot and never back off the line as you are releasing your free throw attempt. He couldn't even do that much right.
How many points did Miami get off his 8 turnovers tonight?
He drew a foul that woulda put Spurs up 1 with 3 seconds left. Refs just didn't do their job.
Manu didn't have it tonight and Pop played him into the ground. We are not going to see a good game for game 7 from him. I think best case is 12 pts and some assists.
I swear I'd be happy if the Spurs payed him $ to retire. I don't want to see him regress more and with another team. Just hang it up guy, you ing suck ass now. Still a fav though, just gtfo off my team now.
The Spurs almost won tonight without him creating anything but turnovers and easy transition opportunities for the Miami Heat.
He played 35 minutes and the Spurs were -21 with him on the floor. -21 in a game that went to overtime and ended in a 3 point margin. What exactly did his ability to create his own shot achieve tonight?
Put his ass on the bench. Give Diaw more minutes to guard Lebron. Give Neal, Green, and Leonard a few more minutes each. Ginobili has played most of this series like he has money bet on the Heat.
If the refs had done their job, they would have called the obvious walk he committed before the foul ever happened. He ought to have 9 turnovers in the box score.
This. Somebody should make a youtuber of all of his 8 turnovers. They were beyond cringe-worthy, astonishingly bad.
It's unfathomable that a player of his (former) caliber doesn't recognize and self-correct...especially in a game of this monumental importance.
All he has to do is dial it back for couple of possessions and we win the game. But he just had to force the difficult pass, and it absolutely killed our best chance for a 5th ring.
with 8 TOs.
at the beginning of the season I told by friend how tired I was of Manu's and his reckless play. At this age he needs to adjust his game but hasn't even tried to adjust his game to play within what his body allows now. Its just needless turnover after needless turnover. That was early on in the season too.
I just don't get the turnovers from this guy. And the more he turns it over, the more he turns it over trying to make up for it.
we would have won without him and his 8 turnovers and missed free throw and and giving up crucail And 1s today.
to be really ing honest.
let us know how that works ya after he loses another for us. As-hole...

There is a BIG difference. Manu has been guilty of being unproductive many times in the past. But in these Finals, he is a downright hazard to the team. He is everything we thought we hated about Matt Bonner times 10.
Can't win with him either. I say we take our chances without his expertise at lazy and predictable passes for Heat fast breaks. Mmmmmmkay?
This, this, and more of this.
Do the 8 turnovers include his insanely ill-advised 3s?
This X1000
give TMac minutes SIMPLY TO HANDLE THE BALL PAST HALFCOURT AND GIVE IT TO DUNCAN ON THE BLOCK
Manu should be limited to 12 minutes of playing time in game 7, and it should only be to rest Parker.
