Has Manu officially declared that this will be his final season?
Well, then I guess this idea probably won't happen..
Quit bringing facts into this "argument".
Yeah, I think Manu getting a ceremonial start on opening night would be a tacit admission of this being his last year. Would be bittersweet tbh.
really anybody thinking Manu is playing beyond Olympics'16 in Rio? don't see it..
^^ I agree with OP that this will probably be Manu's last year, but I don't see them doing anything for it considering he hasn't actually said it's his final year..
Arguably the biggest International basketball event in next door Brazil..just too perfect occasion to hang them up..That's why we need to get this dude a 5th ring next year![]()
What kind of Spurs fan wants Manu to start in 2015-16? LOL
That is definitely not the best move for the team
Starting is really a trivial thing with the Spurs anyways... Pop has had rotations with the first sub as early as 5 mins into a game...
It's not REALLY about STARTING, but being introduced at the beginning of the game. On opening night, maybe they can just introduce all the Spurs instead of just the starting lineup.
Why would there need to be an injury? I'm unsure if you actually read the post. I'm suggesting Pop start Manu as a ceremonial thing. Kind of nice about being the head coach, he can do whatever he wants. Asking Manu to start for the first preseason game would be an insult, which is the opposite of the intent.
I have a hard time believing any of you are this ing stupid. Did you not read the post? Manu would start the first ing home game. That's all. Holy .![]()

What it should be:
McC
LDN
Kawhi
LMA
Timmy
Fine. But start Manu at the point; Play Green at the two; and put Parker on the bench.
Manu said he would ride it out with Duncan until the end. So despite manu declining, he is still better than what would likely replace him on the open market.
Manu's not going to start game 1 tbh. It will be business as usual.
Learn to read, son.
I highly doubt Pop runs OP's proposed starting lineup, but that could very well be the 5-man unit that closes most games.
Uhhh this is frustrating...who cares...
So start him, draw an intentional foul on someone and sub him out? That's just plain dumb, you get the bigger ovation going to the bench or checking in as 6th/7th man then you do being announced in the starting lineup.
you're ing stupid, the OP wants and needs this to happen...probably has a Whopper Value Meal on the line with his best friend.![]()

We all did read the post and believe you're the one who's ing stupid.![]()
