Manu's column for LaNacion (need translate from Spanish)

[SAGirl]

Sure. I read your translations right after I read the article myself so I can see how you interpreted certain passages. All I'm saying is that I want more of that. Like how SAG translated part of one of the Manu articles as meaning that Ginobili was enraptured by the experience of playing with Kyle while I just took it as him thinking Kyle was a good guy.

I got the nudge!
Already got myself in trouble for blabbing about a simple quote.... which by the way, my comments were not outrageous..

But right, in the context of this article, I personally got a different vibe from Manu. First he's concerned with his recovery and his family, then the welfare of the team, and as he's always insisted they are concerned with getting better themselves and in general not worrying about other teams. Having said that the losses hurt bc they didn't play well.

Ultimately though the statement concerning GSW stands. They look invincible and right now the outlook against them is not good. It also seemed to me he said they weren't going to change their style of playing bc of that loss.

However, I have noticed the younger veterans a lot more aggressive though. Kawhi has been aggressive all season, but Lamarcus has stepped up big time and put the deferential state behind and so has Danny, who has already closed out a couple of close games... with success. All this without Tim, Manu and with Tony playing poorly or missing in that stretch. That is as it should be. The guys who have the answers and hold the keys are the younger guys. While everyone holds me to my fandom, I am not delusional, KA was not who I meant when I insisted the team could not continue to rely so much on Manu. It really was LMA and Danny who both were underperforming.

First of all, I'll be glad when tomorrow gets here! Lord knows the break was good for the team, especially for eating up time when Manu can't play. I just appreciate the translations being as they are and appreciate them not being 'sugar-coated.' Manu is speaking conversationally- it's not prose with complex sentence structures. Again, I always appreciate these translations because of his transparency.
