    Tiago Splitter A+ - According to the statline, he got 1 rebound in 0 minutes of action. That's not even mathematically possible, so he gets an A+ for being on pace for infinite rebounds over a 48 minute game.
    This did it for me. Absolutely hilarious!

    All of which I completely expect from Manu. 6 dimes isn't too much above his average. He's going to get a steal or two every game. The no turnovers is nice, but when you take 18 shots and make 5 of them, you're giving the other team the ball a lot anyway. It's funny, some people (ducks) were accusing me of being too friendly with my grades on Manu lately. You folks are hard to please.
    Of course we are. Just like any fan that feeds off of a team which strives for perfection every night, up and down the bench, and plays their asses off.... and are 37-6. We fans expect the same level of precision from out Game Grade threads

    Manu's 16 pts on 18 shots is not a good scoring night, though he went 6/6 from the line to extend his streak to 44 straight throws. But neither is TPs 6 turnovers when him and Manu control the ball basically for equal time and Parker gets an A.

    (in all seriousness CH, I've loved your writeups, keep up the good work and engage your critics

    TP was pretty damn good all night, except for a couple of possesions at the end of the 3rd quarter where he was holding the damn ball a little too damn much and really slowed down the offense and played right into the hands of the Knicks that let them cut the lead down to six heading into the 4th. So, I would go with an A- for TP....

    TP had 3 first quarter turnovers which prevented us from opening a big lead, and 6 overall. B- in my opinion. I expect my All Star PG to protect the ball better.

    The hate for Tony on these forums is palpable. 21 points on 9-14 shooting and 13 assists (a 2.2/1 assist-turnover ratio, mind you) and keying a 4th quarter run that took our lead from 4 to 10, and the clinching 3 point shot to put the Knicks away, and that's a B-?

    You say you have high standards, but Manu's 27% shooting is dismissed so readily? Come on. That's not objectivity.

    What about Manu's 13 misses? Did that not prevent us from opening more of a lead?

    No you're right, TP deserves a B+ not B-. He 9-14 +6 TOs = 21 points off of 20 possessions. Manu 5-18 + 0 TOs = 16 points off of 18 possessions. TP also with the dagger 3. Manu definitely was average and TP above average, but not A to D+ discrepancy.

    Parker hate here is hilarious. CH's Parker grade is spot on.

    I'm beginning to increasingly appreciate ducks' role on these forums. His fiercely anti-Manu pro-Tony posts are necessary to bring some semblance of balance around these parts.

    That's not objectivity.
    Having all the fans of the other teams on this board suddenly linking arms and breaking out in a rendition of "We Are The World" is far more likely to happen.

    Not that I'm knocking it, that's what makes this place fun.

    Cry Havoc, your game review is getting better and better. Keep up the good work!

    But giving Manu D+ is just too harsh. Yes, his shots didn't fall especially from the 3s. But his efforts in playmaking, defense, and ever-so-accurate freethrow shootings should give him at least B-.

    agree with the manu rating - poor shot selection & didn't play as well with the second unit as he usually does

    I guess Manu would have to hit another gamewinner to get an A from Havoc.

    Good job with the grades.

    I think this wasn't the worst game that I've seen from Manu all season. IMO, it was the Hawks game in December when he had 18 pts, 50% FG, 6 TO's and 0 assts.

    ginobili needs a midseason break or something, he looks like he's spent. i would suggest him fake an injury like a "sore pinky finger" or back sprain to sit out a few games but the spurs have already lost bonner and hill. they can't afford to lose ginobili too.

    He should skip the AS weekend trip and stay home.
