He gets way too much hate, especially for '13. The team's biggest problem is falling into predictable basketball, circling around the 3 point line with a bunch of pick and rolls that don't do anything. Against Miami it was obvious, and we were really struggling to score (how fast people forget). We needed his craziness to make things happen. It didn't work out but it would've still been a lot worse without him.
When Manu comes in he finds opportunities no one else thinks of. Sometimes... well those opportunites don't actually exist, and it's a turnover. But anyway the cost is worth it, and without him there's no way we beat the really good teams.
