He's fine, TGF and Hater are an embarrasment.
very true
on a side note, Manu has been great so far, he is contributing above my expectations... still the best player coming off the bench tbh

like you are and few others are when topic is parker
He needed a rest game, but the team is not the same without Manu in the second line, bad day for Gino.
Spurs record without Manu in the last 4 years
2016-2017: 5-1 (83.3 Win%)
2015-2016: 20-4 (83.3 Win%)
2014-2015: 8-4 (66.7 Win%)
2013-2014: 10-4 (71.4 Win%)
Keep in mind some of those games were when all of the Big 3 rested at once
It was an embarrassing miss, but I was impressed with Manu owning it after the game and showing emotion unlike most players when they lose a regular season game. I'm fine with him having these crap games because the Spurs will still win over 50 games and be a top 4 seed and we probably only have one season left of Manu and for us fans who have loved watching him play for years, we are willing to sit through those 7 eh to bad games to witness that one game where he has his legs and his shot is falling and he pulls off a classic Manu game.
Wow a grown up on this forum with some perspective. Thank you.
Still the best TOSB (37 or older) in the league, tbh..

Except when he doesn't have it in a playoff game / series but continues to be on the floor in crunch time.
The problem with Manu at this point of his career is if he's not hitting shots, hes just a fouling turnover machine with no ability to make it up like he used to when he was younger.
He commits bad fouls going for steals on rebounds, and constantly gambles on defense like he's still 25.
I appreciate his "good" game every now and again, but by the time the playoffs roll around, it's one good game out of every six, not one in three.
And again, it's not Manus fault at this point, he's old. It's Pop for still relying on him in those moments.
?? I Love Parker, you're crazy
Well he struggled but so many others had it going .... props to Pop for going with the hot hands and giving Simmons run..
Anyone who expects him to be great on a nightly basis has silly expectations.
He will have ups and downs throughout the season at this point in his career. We just need him to be on point when it matters. Also, we should be fortunate Simmons has been playing so well.
ST, as a whole, is an embarrassment.
