There are some seriously fickle people on this board. I'm disgusted I even bothered to open this thread.
I would have been okay if the ball was actually picked or stolen, but this is the Suns we're talking about they don't play D, the ball rolled off Manu's foot when he was crossing over.

Eh, fan stupidity in general is part of what keeps this board so entertaining, whether it be on behalf of the Spurs or another team.
Besides, it's fun to play 'spot the bandwagoner/cliffjumper' after Spurs losses.
Manu's been clutch so many other times in games that every once in a while it's ok. I just want to know what's going on with Manu. Other than the Dallas and Utah game (after his finger injury) his game has been horrible. It's frustrating because for a while he was playing awesome and now he's playing awful. He doesn't even look the same so I don't know what's going on. Hopefully he can get things together soon. I'd say maybe we should just rest him for a game or two.
hmmm.... what would have happened if tony was playing and both manu and tony screwed up the final possession?
I said that Manu needs rest, but nobody believe me.

ST would be a smoking pile of ashes by now if that happened.hmmm.... what would have happened if tony was playing and both manu and tony screwed up the final possession?
he's in some kind of funk. we have a stretch of relatively easy games. pop could sit manu out if he needs rests. better it happens now than later in the season.
This thread is pretty lame but for all that is holy, will Manu please abandon his crossover move during late game situations? The ball gets stolen like 85% of the time when he goes to that move.
He should cut the cross-court pass attempts in the halfcourt sets to about one per game, too.
Yup...it would've been the Suns having to foul us, and we were $$$ from the stripe tonight.
The pick and roll with fabricio feels like its failing more and more sometimes.
Tim looked pretty sad while Bell and Hill "celebrate" after the game.
Manu is not finishing like his usual strong self, and his shot is coming up short.
Those issues usually have something to do with the legs not being strong, and giving the support needed. He might need to change his workout routine to strengthen them up. Or even rest them up for awhile.
And if BOWEN had hit that 3 point shot...everyone would have been hailing MANU's pass and intelligence for spotting him and getting the right guy the ball.
so it goes...
manu's only human, and some of the self-proclaimed spurs fans are blaming him for almost all the recent losses of the team.. what a disgrace! I say, go support other teams, and don't ever post stupid threads like these.. Real spurs fans won't play blame games like this, c'mon.
WTF is wrong with you? Yes, sometimes Manu s up in the clutch... so does every other player in the history of the game. But you conveniently forget the number of games Manu wins for us IN THE CLUTCH, whether it by driving, knocking down 3s, stealing the ball or hitting his FTs.
You, sir, are a disgraceful Spurs fan and should be pinked!
Amen. If he's absolutely has to crossover he should be going right to left behind his back from the left side of the floor - he splits them all the time with that move.
Tonight it worked 2/3 or 3/4 times, but a couple of games ago it was horrible.
Personally, I prefer Tony and Tim doing it at the elbow where Tony doesn't dive but runs at the FT line while Tim dives and is usually left open for the layup. They've shelved that play since the playoffs though... keeping it for later!
------> Indeed, look at their avatars, they dont even like basketball.
It seems to be that some people doesn't get it. How many times has Manu been in the same situation? We all know that the only issue with ginobili is his consistency. The guy scored 18 pts, made some nice moves. He was fine, Duncan was great. But we need more to beat the elite teams in the Nba. We need the whole Big Three going.
Yes, we had some bad calls and some bad luck, but this lost is on the Suns good defense.
18 - 5 -4.....Not a bad line for a guy that is "the goat", the "reason we lost".
Oh, he had a total of 2 turnovers the entire game.....
What about the 2 chip shots Duncan missed? How many 6 inch putts do you see a pro miss?
What about the turnover by Duncan with less than a minute left?
What about Bowens wide open three that missed?
No, I'm sorry... Manu didn't lose this game all by himself. It was a team effort.
And if Tony had been on the floor, we wouldn't even be having a conversation like this, because the Spurs would have won by 10 or more.
Does Jayem ever get tired of ing up posts?
Manu, after a sub par game (at least for 2007/8 Manu standards) score's the Spurs last basket.
It is clearly not his fault that Amare grabed an offensive board to put the Suns back on top with less than 30 seconds to go.
Manu opens up the floor and assists Bruce for a wide open three (Bruce misses).
Finally, Manu is handed the ball with two defender on top of him and cornered. He loses the ball.
Yes . . . this loss is on Manu!
you know what i hate about this... he even may have slowed down not to get over hyped so the spurs start flying under the radar yet again... i think he and the team feels more comfortable that way... this is on purpose... he realized he has to hve some aggression come playoff time.. and may be evaluation not attending the ASG for a long weekend in Aruba... that will help more to the team guys,,,
The thread started is a ing idiot. That is all.
