Manu back to the bench?

[ChumpDumper]

Take your time.

I said plenty of positive things about Hedo.

And Manu.

Are you going to leave those out?

[Athenea]

Again...the bullie card.
Won't work w/me...I'm telling u...
U said:
Hedo>Manu
who is gonna offer manu usd50 mill
Pop=genius+magician


Ahhh u also said (off topic I know) that Nocioni wouldn't make the NBA.

[ChumpDumper]

Again...the bullie card.

It's "bully" and you don't even seem to know the meaning of that word either.

Ahhh u also said (off topic I know) that Nocioni wouldn't make the NBA.

Link that right now or STFU.

I assume you know what that means.

[T Park]

I take anything coming from a liar and delusional like u w/a grain of salt.

The only one with delusions is you.

You are wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy out in left field.

[Athenea]

The only one with delusions is you.

You are wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy out in left field.

Really? Mr "I can get u a jersey give me your address...I had a trip to Bermuda TRiangle that's why I couldn't send it..I've left dozens of pms to Athenea but she hasn't answered me"
And BTW I can afford dozens of t-shirts.
Just stating the obvious...u r a liar or a show off or delusional or everything at the same time.

[T Park]

Someone needs a prozac, a bottle of water, and a nice warm bed.

Bully? Bullie? oops tha was harsh...

And that's u coz if I'm not mistaken Jim adressed u about the same subject.

[ChumpDumper]

Pissed off because you didn't score a free jersey from TPark?

Weak.

It's not like he welched on a $1000 bet.[apologies to Jim]

His generosity is the stuff of minor legend, he'd probably still send you a jersey now after being such a jerk.

[ChumpDumper]

Nah, you still don't get it. Good luck with the Asian languages, though.

[T Park]

Actually, I did today pick up 5 Manu jerseys to get ready to send out.

I apologized for this before because I have been out of town for about 3 months and havent been able to.


Athenea, as much as you hate me, I apologize and wish you wouldn't.

You will get your jersey, I do apologize for the iness.

[T Park]

And that's u

actually i had to move about a god knows how heavy generator today on metal pipes inside a 53 foot moving van style trailer, and it took from 8 am till about 2 PM no lunch, and it was about 88 today here in San Antonio.

So I dont need a prozac or a warm bed.

a cold bed with a fan and a ice cold bottle of water would rock though

[whottt]

Athenea...just realize when you argue with Chump...

All season long he's reversed his stance from last year and said doing anything to help Barry's game is "charity" and Barry is a huge pussy if he needs it...this after he rode Hedo's jock into a choke last season...

Now all of a sudden Pop starts Barry and gives him the "charity" that Chump has ridiculed all season long...and Chump acts like it's an act of brilliance...

Remember...when you argue with Chump you are aruing with a huge nutsac extension...he will change and waffle depending on what Pop does...

Next week you could just as easily find him arguing against the very position he is defending in this thread...depending on what Pop does.

Take it with a grain of salt...

Then again, if you are mad at Pop Chump is a good person to take it out on.,...whupping him in an argument is the closest you'll ever get to being able to kick pop in the balls

[ChumpDumper]

All season long he's reversed his stance and said doing anything to help Barry's game is "charity" and Barry is a huge pussy if he needs it.

Quite the contrary. I'm all for welfare if it helps. We had options before with Devin. Now we don't. Just like last year.

Next week you'll could just as easily find him arguing against the very position he is defending in this thread.

As you can see by timvp's links, I was not at all opposed to Manu's coming off the bench.

Go ahead and look.

You stil haven't gotten back to me about Manu's "not going to do it again" -- I gave you the link, now begin backtracking.

Well, I don't know about your cantonese, but you sure as belong in a diaper.

It's absolutly amazing that you trying to call Chump a bully because she tried to intimidate you (which she didn't) while trying to intimidate someone with your supposed language skills.

Give us a freaking break and either bring some quality basketball takes or STFU already. It's old.

[whottt]

Hmmm...I know you've said you don't want to give Barry "welfare" since Devin was injured...

Go ahead and look.

You stil haven't gotten back to me about Manu's "not going to do it again" -- I gave you the link, now begin backtracking.

Tell you what...Prove to me you can remember what we were arguing about in Hedo>Manu and then I'll go to the trouble of clarifying that statement.

I am betting you can't remember...because if you could then you'd know what I meant by that.

But basically..right now it appears that you literally believe that I think players have the power to decide if they start or come off the bench on this team.

Tony Massenburg will insert himself into the starting lineup in our next game.

[stéphane]

Noted.

But then again, how many Spurs fans from France post here? I can count the number on one hand. And honestly, that has always shocked me. France has like twice the population of Argentina and Tony Parker has been with the team longer, but the French don't support him to the same degree as the Argentines support Manu.

Argentines live and die by the play of Manu. The French don't care enough to contribute here in regards to Parker.

Why is that?

QUESTION.



P.S.

Don't get me started on how much Slovenians care about Beno and Rasho or how even New Zealanders care about Sean Marks.

Easy to answer, it mainly has to do with english language level but also with the fact that it can be very disapointing and upseting to fail arguing in a foreign language... And honestly, most french that support TP know jack about bball or are just female of 15/16years old who are "fallin" for him because he's sexy and stuff. So if you don't know anything about bball, you're average in english and you read a couple of topics, you can be scared and wonder to post or not. Because if you say something really stupid at spurstalk, you have ten replies saying how re ed you are etc etc
So they just read a bit and avoid posting. Fair enough
But anyway soccer is the biggest sport in France by far.

[stéphane]

Here's how you piss stéphane off:
California wines > French wines

so true
French Wine < Slovenian Wine < ... < California Wine

[Frenchise player]

I think that the main reason why French people aren't interested in the NBA is because there is a huge tradition in France that we call the "French exeption".
That means that we have to defend our own culture like movies, music, books....
That's why, France's culture is not as americanized as Argentina or Slovenia (even if there is a lot of quality argentinian films).
The american tv channels like tnt or espn aren't widespread as in South America.
I lived in Brazil during 5 years, and I was impressed how american tv series or movies were important in the live of young people.
Parker is well-known in France and he has a good coverage in the media, but people doesn't have the passion for the nba as argentinians have.

[ChumpDumper]

I know you've said you don't want to give Barry "welfare" since Devin was injured.

I said it wasn't without precedent, and it's not like we can play Big Dog 30mpg. Link to where I said I was against it.

Tell you what...Prove to me you can remember what we were arguing about in Hedo>Manu

Already done, so STFU.

I am betting you can't remember...because if you could then you'd know what I meant by that.

If you can't explain yourself, or want to avoid backtracking, don't be a coward about it.

But basically..right now it appears that you literally believe that I think players have the power to decide if they start or come off the bench on this team.

Players can do all they can to get out of a situation like this. You simply said he would not do it again. Please spin that or backtrack, I expect a litle of both.

[team-work]

The success of this move depends on how Barry responds (as in the regular season, he works better as a starter). Manu has proven himself to be powerful from the bench in the last 2 seasons, and as a starter this one.

Ultimate goal : to have someone to score points when BOTH Tony and Tim struggles offensively, eg. the last 4 playoff games vs the Lakers in 04 / Game 1 vs Nuggets.

Also needs to decide how Devin can contribute as his back improves, spotty minutes vs first guard off the bench? All 3 players can also pick up minutes as small forward.

Don't bother, TPark...
I never expected to recieve the jersey anyway. I didn't want to make the thing public also. U can say I'm y when I'm being y
I can afford my own stuff.
Thanks anyway.

[Athenea]

Manny u r so cheesy...u look cheesy...u sound cheesy...bleh

[dmassimo10]

Pop probably wants to have either Duncan or Manu on the floor at all or near all times. With Manu starting there were times both were on the bench at the same time.

I feel the same way...One all-star in at all times -- I think Brent has a good head for Spurs b-ball and he is cool and confident - two things needed in playoff time so Manu off the bench -- good move!

Manu can spark up his own energy at any time - he's a self starter ...

[MannyIsGod]

Yes, *I* am the cheesy one. You on the otherhand, are the grand multi-lingual Argentinian ninja.
