    The Church of Manu wants championships. They don't care about individual honors.

    Passage 1:1 in the Book of Manu....

    "Tis the Championship for which we strive..only the Championship matters..it is the beginning, the end and all in between....for He who calls himself Manu deems it"

    There endeth the lesson.

    If I remember correctly, there were some GMs and coaches that were surprised that Tony didn't make the AS team last year. If the first team wasn't based on fan voting, we might see more Spurs overall.

    The Church of Manu is based on the team concept embraced by their patron saint. If Tony makes the AS team and Manu doesn't, we will be thrilled that another teammate was chosen.

    Need I repeat what many (if not all) the Members of my Church have stated in this thread?

    All I will say is that Tony is the right now, and I'm happy for him, but happier for the Spurs. Without him we would not be 4-1.

    As for Manu, he is in a terrible slump. Maybe it's the thigh, or maybe it's just that he is not playing well. Hope he snaps out of it.

    That's not the entire Church but just a vocal minority.

    Get over it, Shoo.
    U think Pop was right and I think he did wrong. If not why Manu was reinserted in the starting position?
    I don't see why ppl have to apologize to the TRUE Spurs fans like you.
    And on subject, I think getting TP in the ASG is a necessity for the Spurs. He got no respect from the referees last POffs especially in the Suns series. Amare leveled him so many times that I lost track.

    In the interests of team play, I will not actually go back and pull up those embarrassing threads from the Denver series, where we can see the names of those who clearly had priorities of Manu first, team second.

    You're welcome.

    Yeah, it does appear that much of the congregation of the Church of Manu was very concerned about Manu instead of the Spurs.

    I went through the thread (well I got tired right about page 8 or 9) and aside from a certain lady who went crazy, I don't see many others saying Manu first, team second (proly Hendrix was the other)

    My point, for some time now, has been what's best for Manu is best for the team. I would rather see Manu play like he did against Denver coming of the bench than how he is playing these last five games, starting. The issue is he can play well (as he did the rest of the playoffs), starting, but I simply don’t give a . Whatever makes Manu play at the top of his game, I’ll take it.

    There is clearly something wrong with him because aside from the game with CHI, he has been playing like . The percentage of points coming off layups must bee 20% or less! That’s crazy! And his intensity has not been there either.

    So if for whatever crazy reason, coming off the bench is the answer, let him come off the bench. What’s good for Manu is good for the Spurs.

    Yeah, it looks like it evolved into a race thread. I also think that the initial reaction had to do with not understanding why the change was made.

    All seem valid points. Who cares if Manu starts at the bench. Everyone knows he is the second most important piece to this team.
    Tim = Queen
    Manu = Rook
    Parker = Knight
    Everyone else = Pawn
    that's my post from that old thread ^ So don't go and generalizing Manu beleivers.

    You don't need to be voted in or anything. You just need to be faithful to our patron saint and stick with him in good times and bad.

    Trust me that is all i do, manu is the man and i have never once doubted him since the moment he doned the silver and black for the first time. Manu is the only player from the spurs i have ever had undenying loyalty, he's magnificant, and unique. When he has bad nights, i know the next day he will bounce back and drop 40 points on people.......manu=greatness
    batman=greatness what a great combination

    practicing the ritual of the sacred flop is one way to enter the church my young friend. Once you master this ritual, come back and we might consider letting u into our congregation.
