I would turn in my fan card the second he left the building.

We'd be getting the ty end of that deal ...

**YODA** · 11-01-2007

I was thinking of what players manu reminds me of and we lost for words. What type of players is he? How do we describe him to someone who has never seen him?
Fearless, unltraagressive, willing to gamble, clutch player? He really isnt a super athletic player, but he gets it done. Best I could come up with was Mario elie, but thats far from Manu still. if it was Football, Id say Bill Bates for always being in the mix or Randy white for giving it 100% every second he played.
...all this and Manu really has noone to compare him to.
What do you all think?

I cant think of any other player I have liked watching as much as manu. He really brings the team together and seems to make more it fun for the team

wow... i am really dissapointed to hear this... coming of AJ when Manu decided not to use nbr 6 when he arrived.... ESPN chose Barbosa on top of him too...

no comparison is possible... he'll be the example where rookies will try to be compared... the closest i have thought of... a poor man's MJ

yeah right...trade Manu? stupid

**RuffnReadyOzStyle** · 11-01-2007

Manu is Manu, there is no comparison or adequate description beyond "Manu"...

I'm a massive DRob fan, and I love TD with all my heart, but Manu might be the most exciting player I've ever watched. David was the most graceful, Timmy the most fundamentally skillful (with Hakeem), MJ the most incredible, but Manu beats the field on pure excitement!

I will always remember games 1, 2 and 7 in 2005 when he just took over the game in the blink of an eye... he's an MJ-level super-compe or without being an arsehole.

Mega-props to MANU!

I think he's "Pistol Pete Maravich Lite" but with 100% RDA all natural clutchness added.

**Martin R** · 11-02-2007

Manu wants to stay but the Kobe buzz reached San Antonio early this week....

**carib** · 11-02-2007

it's time, LOL

Manu doesn't wear hot. Hot feels honored to wear Manu.

**guoming** · 11-02-2007

I think it's impossible

**howbouthemspurs** · 11-02-2007

Idiot

**ManuAddicted** · 11-03-2007

Yes. Trade it for Dirk 'loser' NoRINGtsky!

**BornForMiracle** · 11-03-2007

If you insist trading Manu, I will insist trading Parker.

**duncan7721** · 11-03-2007

Tell him to grow his hair back or get outta there

jk

Winning championships.

Stop being such a homer. Anyone who wouldn't trade Manu for Dirk is either a) smoking crack or b) knows nothing about basketball. Don't bring up ring totals because Manu is hardly the team's leader. Everything begins and ends with Duncan; whereas Dirk, he is everything to his team. He is the Duncan of the Mavs.

**RuffnReadyOzStyle** · 11-03-2007

Manu is a leader, especially on the court.

As for trading him for Nowitski... Dirk, TD and TP sounds good, but I would probably keep Manu. Winning rings is about team balance, and these four guys (TD/Tony/Manu/Bruce) have balanced each other beautifully to 3 rings. Personally, I wouldn't change a thing.

(PS Don't take that as a diss to the great role players who have played a vital part in those rings.

)

In fantasy, sure, make the trade, but DO NOT BREAK UP THIS CORE UNTIL THE RUN IS DONE.

Now that's the real deal.
