Manus Hero Ball strikes again. This time on D.

[MultiTroll]

Again, more hindsight analysis. I'm pretty sure Manu didn't want to foul, not last night or in 2006. Boris didn't want to foul in the previous game either...

Not sure if you are just trolling as the SpursTalk jerk off mod-troll krewz keep a running score of how many responses, sock puppet or otherwise they can *get*.
Do you reallly not get the strategy of not allowing a 3, be it beyond the arc or 2+1 at the end of the game?
In 2006 in the huddle, to Pops credit he reiterated in the timeout, "Don't foul the shooter".

Perhaps we can hook you (and Manu) up with Mr. Jenkins and his 4th grade basketball class the next practice session(s).

Did you guys catch were he did it again!?
87-84 after Splitts did the nifty loose ball grab and Blair gifted us with the knee jerk reaction leg kick.
Manu sinks the tech, Splitts hits both free throws.
Back on D.
Ellis drives and GNob tries to draw the charge and instead hands Ellis a 2 + 1. Tie game.

Don't foul the shooter, right?
Basketball 101, Mr. Jenkins and his 4th grade basketball class all know this.

I know Hall of Fame best coach in the NBA Greg Popper won't do it, but with game-on-the-line defensive situations like this and esp at the very end like the end of Game 3 (1.7 seconds) he should sub Manu out. Do the defensive/offensive switch. Of course it would be better to school him how to play D up 3 but that obviously is not working.

Nor 2+1s.

Thank goodness we won.
For the haters, Manu played well all in all. Any of your fabrications that *it's just one play*, yeah its sometimes the game deciding play.

Manu haters still try to find ways to blame Gino for things when he is the ONLY ONE balling out for us.

Are you trolling Fabbs?

In 2006, Dirk started that play with 26 secs left on the clock. If he misses, then they have to foul. THAT is an end of game situation (and that was certainly a costly, boneheaded foul).

Last night there was no such scenario. Make or miss, there was plenty of time left.

Team comes before individual.
That you apparantly think Manu is perfect and beyond impovement is well, you must have celebrated with the Heat when GNob was literally their Game 6 MVP.

When a players flaws impede a Championship, it is indeed proper that said player could improve on those flaws.

why is it that whenever someone defends Manu they are a "Manu " or "individual before team".

GINOBILI HAS SAVED OUR ASSES. YOU CAN'T SPIN THAT. You have to be clinically re ed to nitpick at his game last night..
