Takeover in favor of his opponent!
wow. People still really obsessed with Manu and hating on him. Get over it already.

nobody cares how irritated you are, tbh...
lol Spurs in 7*

But later on you change, you realize you're going to have time for all that, that there's still fire while I play and I want to keep enjoying that.
tbh, everyone can interpret stuff anyway they want... that "revenge" isn't the motivator for him doesn't mean there's no motivation. He's always been a huge compe or, per Pop, so the motivation is clearly there, even if it doesn't stems from revenge.
Still fire....but not sustainable. His afterburner won't light beyond first zone without a chuff chuff flameout. It is obvious by his words what his true state is. Guy hasn't "got it" any more. He admits it. Nobody with a fire would dare say the wimp things that came out of his mouth. IHe was determined after the Dirk Incident to make good. Heis in no no no way showing that resolve now.
I read a guy that's frustrated with injuries, and that's ready to move on after a tough playoffs. He's obviously 36, on the twilight of his career, so expecting him to be a 30 year old Manu isn't realistic. But he's obviously still very useful for the Spurs as long as he's healthy.
Luckily we have two more seasons to enjoy him.
you're welcome... same to everyone! Slow offseason, figured a bit of fresh news wouldn't hurt.
Guys with the fire are NOT ready to move on. Dude is done.
Thanks El Nono. I appreciate all your translations. By the way could you translate this little part. It sounds like the trainer's up there working with Manu to prepare him for the season.

Matthew Herring estará cinco días más en Argentina antes de volver a su país. "Se está poniendo en forma para la temporada y yo estoy trabajando con él para reevaluarlo y hacer cambios en caso de que sean necesarios. Hasta el momento todo va muy bien", señaló Herring al ser consultado.
Nice find. Exactly what I was wondering earlier. Let me translate the entire article. I might just post it on a separate thread since it's a bit long.
Thanks.
Get a room you two Manu sThe former I'm guessing. Brilliant post!
I disagree with Manu, if Miami keeps winning NBA les in a row anyone who picks up a history book long from now will see that the Heat dominated that era (which would be the 2010's) losing first to Dallas in 2011. Just like with the Chicago Bulls of the 1990's they will see the Bulls dominated that decade just about. As for the Spurs they will see they won every odd year in the 2000's and got back there 6 years later and lost one time and the Lakers dominated the early 2000's and started winning again to close out the decade and to start the next. If the Spurs want to be noticed in that Finals history book for this decade they better get the job done in 2014 and win it all or else they will look like Seatlle in the losing column. Utah was good enough to win it all but had to face the dominate Jordan led Bulls got there 2 years straight and lost both times to the Bulls. People will see in the Finals history books that Utah team was good, same with that Nets team got there 2 years straight and lost to Lakers, Spurs and Detroit which won it all in 2004 and lost to Spurs in 2005. Getting back to the Finals 2 years straight is always respectable. That Cavs team will be looked at like Seattle having made it once and losing to Spurs in 2007.

I'm not knocking the guy. It's healthy to move on. As a fan, it was just a reminder of what happened.
yep-that's perspective.Five or ten years ago, end up getting eliminated in a Finals like that would've been dramatic; now it was 48 hours and life goes on.
My favorite part of that interview was this "I start hearing the voices from the kids, they come running in their pajamas and that's that. You can't stay mad." Pop was saying after the Finals loss "if this is the worst thing that happens to you in your life, then you got a pretty good life."
Sucks but it's very true, in the end it's just a game.
Boooooooooooooom!!!
Truth fukushima apocalypse.
If Manu is already moving on from worts Finals choke job in history of the game which happened 2 months ago, he does not care and wont care about winning anymore
then what's the point in resigning rather than retiring and working out right now with the trainer to get into shape for the season.
why are you bringing facts to this conversation?
This is what LOSERS say. Call a spade a spade ok - be honest.
LOSERS justify their losing - and of course - life is bigger than a game - ....
TO WHO?
To satisfied millionaires - yes - it is just a game.
Don't be shocked when the next few years go by and the Spurs never win a le - but-but -it's ok -life is bigger!
lmao
LOSERS!
Lets see, I can think of 14 million reasons
Not to mention the endorsement money. Gotta feed da family...
i think Manu will use his money and become el presidente of Argentina. is like a demigod there already, might as well become their leader and hit pay dirt with K-DIRT.
I have my doubts. In Argentina ppl think about basketball about 1% of the time, the other 99% of the time they spent thinking on how to obtain US dollars in the black market and futbol.
Manu would be a great politician. He already got the basic principles down. When you accomplish something it's the greatest thing since sliced bread, but when you fail to keep your promise, you are quickly to blame others and in the end there are more important things in life. He also seems proficient at blocking out all criticism, which is essential to great politicians.
