Jesus. How many people are going to start the same thread?
what do u mean? u really think Manu shouldn't retire?????
hes finished and only hurting the Spurs at this point. What do you do when one of your toes is dead and imparing you? you cut it off
I would agree he should retire except for one thing...despite his turnovers, frequent injuries, and questionable decision making he's the only one who can handle the ball outside of TP. If we brought in someone else or somehow developed CoJo or De Colo by next season then yes I'd be all for Ginobili's retirement. Then we could get a real starting SG and move Green to the bench where he belongs.
no news at this time...
my bad if this is a repost. I was gone to another dimension the last 24 hours
this is a serious thread. How can anybody think Manu can be helpful next season. Dude is finished. 2 costly Tos late in game 7 really put a nail in his career.
retire Manu. For the love of God and all that is Holy. Retire. please retire.
retire
thanks homie
He's coming back for one more run.
tbh, if this thread goes like "trust me, Spurs in 7"...

i'd rather Pop retire at this point in time, before he swallows up whats left of Duncan's career.
be right back homies....
Bacardi is wearing out

I agree. Ginobili needs to retire ASAP. His salary can be better used on Jarret Jack or other good FA on the market. If he wants to play then he can either go play for another team or take the veteran's minimum. Either way his jersey will still be retired and we all will always be grateful for the three championship he contributed to. I will never forgive him and Pop though for costing Tim Duncan his 5th ring.
oh jeez
are you serious. Is Manu the only living breathing human being that can handle the ball besides TP????
come on. Spurs have 1 year to find TP's backup. and if Manu retires they'll also have plenty of money. A ing backup PG cannot be that ing hard to find. try TMAC
All the people piling on Manu right now had too high of expectations for him. It's like everyone expected for him to turn into 2005 Manu again just because the Spurs were back in the Finals. , even Pop probably tried to lump too much responsibility on those aging shoulders. Sure, I wanted to believe the Manu of old would rise, but Spurs fans need to face it: those days are gone for him.
The dude is 35 and has more basketball miles on his body than anybody on the team, especially with the reckless abandon he plays with. Age catches up with every player, and it's obviously caught up with Manu. We already have two 30-something year olds playing well above the level they should be, asking for a third is simply not reasonable.
Yes, I understand that his play was not on par with his gigantic salary, but that's what happens when you sign a contract in your semi-prime and then quickly decline, and we all knew Manu was going to be in for a quick decline when it happens. However, in the right capacity, Manu could still be extremely useful to the team. If he comes back for a reasonable contract and is properly utilized as a role-player, he could easily have another good two seasons. Give his keys to Kawhi, and let him settle into a backseat role.
but seriously manu can come back but he better play limited minutes. He's better off being a spot up shooter like green and bonner. His driving to the lane and creating for others days are over.
that's BS. nobody expected 05 Manu. We did expect a lot less than 8 TOs in game 6 and 2 crucial TOs late in game 7. thou.
He will hurt the team more than help. He's an emotional guy that gets up and down to the extremes. Spurs don't need that anymore. Time to bid him farewell. It's what's best for the team.The dude is 35 and has more basketball miles on his body than anybody on the team, especially with the reckless abandon he plays with.

I am fine with Manu coming back but only for the veteran's minimum. That assumes he adjusts his game by toning down the hero passing and theatrics like behind the back dribbling. He can still get to the basket. He needs to work hard on his 3 PT shooting though in the offseason to shoot a higher percentage, and of course FTs.
Why retire? Leave the Spurs, maybe... But why retire? Scared he might prove you wrong on another team? Don't be such a chicken, hater boy.
I wonder when is jersey will be retired? Gotta be in the first few months of the season right?
Manu won't retire. He can't go out like that and this lost opportunity is gonna eat him alive alllllll summer. He'll be back just with a different role
