Última semana en Bahía Blanca antes de la concentración en Buenos Aires con la selección. Aumento simultáneo en la intensidad de los entrenamientos y de las despedidas de familiares y amigos. Dura combinación para este cuerpito, pero beneficial para la cabeza.
1 – Actualización deportiva:

La noticia más relevante para contarles es que ya estoy decidido a seguir jugando en la NBA. No tenía muchas dudas, pero como hago últimamente, quería dejar pasar un poco el tiempo y ver la temporada que pasó desde un poco más lejos. La realidad es que este año me siento más seguro y lo tengo aún más claro que el año anterior. La pasé muy bien durante la temporada y salvo el “pequeño” incidente de febrero estuve saludable en todo momento. Definitivamente quiero seguir disfrutando del básquet un poco más. Ampliaré en mi habitual columna en La Nación muy pronto. Dado que este no es un blog de básquet, seguiré en ese espacio contando más detalles.
Más allá de eso, como decía anteriormente, esta semana me entrené con bastante mayor intensidad tanto en gimnasio como en cancha. Sufrieron las piernas y pulmones pero era inevitable. Ahora es el momento de comenzar con los entrenamientos de equipo. El lunes me costará mucho, pero ya no veo la hora y tengo ganas de ver a todos los chicos.

He can still do some things in a limited role, like last season. Welcome back, Manu.

[NASpurs]

I would had put "for another season" in the le but I ran out of space

WB Nariz !

Why wouldn't he with all this sick money being handed out....

One more year it is then.

Might as well bring back West, Bonner, and Timmy too.

[TheGreatYacht]

Retire. You're holding the bench back

[SpursFan86]

Will be interesting to see what type of contract he gets. Wonder if he's going to take another paycut or try taking advantage of the rising cap like everyone else.

As I said a little while back, I'd love to have Manu return. I just don't want PATFO to call it a day and continue to rely on him being the 6th man. We really need someone else to come off the bench and be able to create some offense for others. Maybe they're hoping KA will be able to do that.

Impressed. Last summer he wasn't sure he'd make it one more year.

[bklynspursfan]

Sweet! He had a pretty solid year, and seems like he's really training and working out hard this summer

[DPG21920]

I'm not trying to be funny, but I hope he escapes the NT play unharmed.

[RD2191]

Awesome. He still outplays Parker even coming off the bench.

[hsxvvd]

Although it doesn't say anything about returning to the Spurs

[Ron Swanson]

That was my second thought after seeing this thread.

Of course he looks good in the summer.

Spare me the suspense....Is he resigning with us? There's big money out there and i have been told Manu deeply resents the money paid to a fat underperforming teammate so i'd expect him to leave to a higher paying position. I think hes worth $18m a year tbqh (intangibles mainly). Is it the Lakers? Maybe Dallas. Lots of teams need a big name two guard. Lots of money for names in this market.

[Spurs Brazil]

Yes!!!

He's going to Boston. Says he likes cold weather.

Welcome back Manu

[TheGreatYacht]

Manu Ginobili 2015 playoff stats:
8.0ppg 3.4rpg, 4.6apg, 2.0TO, 34.9FG%

Manu Ginobili 2016 playoff stats:
6.7ppg, 2.7rpg, 2.5apg, 0.7TO, 42.6FG%

If another guard put up those horrendous numbers, 90% of the board would be calling for his head

[Harry Callahan]

MG has more basketball vision IQ than 99 % of the players in the league. If not for the knee to the groin, he would have played 70 + games last year. Welcome back....
one more run 4 the big 3. Another 50+ win season too.

[Kikoluna]

Manu is staying with spurs, common now. Not even a question. Somebody mentioned Kyle as an option to produce off the bench? Lol, I'll have what you are drinking my friend
