The one which is not Manny
Chill out. It's just a spurs fan on a high from last nights game. I mean we are allowed to comment on our players on a spurs board right?
Heaven forbid Spurs fans leave comments on a Spurs board about his performance.So what if they are outrageous and not true? Are you and other fans here to keep it real with us? I promise you, you won't make a crazy Spur fans fanatic think otherwise.
This is just an over reaction to manu having a great game last night. He has played well over the last few games but no way is he as good as L James is.
"Homer"
And I don't give a . Go Spurs Go! You'll never find me at another team's message board tellling thier fans how to act. You'll never find me at another team's message board period. I have a life.
I like Manu as much as the next Spurs fan, but let's not get carried away.
Is this term suppose to bother me?
Well, you gotta be rational. Manu has had two big games and has been putting up 20+ in the rest of the games. He's been playing really good, SuperManu maybe but no that much to this kind of hype in the board.
Manu is an exellent player, maybe even better than some so called superstar who have a good jumpshot and dunk on people, Manu plays actual basketball to win plus has the skills to play it right that makes him a better player but many people here has to get a grip on themselves.
Sometimes drives mad that people tends him to underrate him. You gotta have him in your team to know the kind of player that Manu is.
This thread sucks. People are overacting in every way.
do you factor in salary? he's gotta be one of the best values in the league by far
Look at the stats per 48 minutes
Manu #5 scorer second among SG (Kobe #1)
#6 rebounder among SG (Kobe #7)
#4 in assists among SG (Kobe #5)
#2 in steals among SG (#9 in the league) Kobe #7 (#19)
Add a 41 3P%, 3 rings, gold medal,...
Then you can understand that after two huge games we may sometime overreact.
Nobody (but some hardcore Manu fans) really think MANU > LJ or Kobe. But Manu is a top 5 SG in the league top 3 IMO and maybe #2 behind Kobe.
Thanks for straightening that one out.
do manu fans annoy you? does all this hype that surrounds him here at this spurs board bother you.
I don't know if Manu is the #1 all-around player, but you want him on the floor for your team in the playoffs when it's crunch time.
JamStone, you always bring excellent takes (though I didn't quite follow you on the Pop-Grizz collusion stuff) so I am gonna register to see this Manu debate.
I've always been very curious as to how Manu is perceived by other teams' fans.
I know he is labeled as a big time flopper (and I can't really argue against that at times) but sometimes it feels like he's never given the respect by other teams that he deserves, but once again, it might just be that his flopping overshadows his play making ability, which would be an absolute shame.
No way his flopping overshadows his championships. Fans who think like that are just hatin. It's like Tim, you know he always barks at the refs to the point it get's annoying, but that is not going to be what defines his career. (Although Tim has calmed down alot the last 2 seasons.
Well, he gets a ton of respect from ESPN and stuff, but I was just curious on whether or not other nba fans fear/respect ginobili.
It's not even a big deal at all, I am just curious.
At the Raps game it was incredible how many people were talking about Manu afterwards with such admiration.
I was a really proud fan that night![]()
I think with non-marginal NBA fans, Manu's intangibles and team player-mentality stands out, and he gets respect.
but I think Manu has kind of an under-dog quality to him, so lots of times he's downplayed as being a bench player, or the third best player on the Spurs, when he's a lot more multi-dimensional than that.
I'd say this season if he keeps healthy , he's easily the 2nd best SG in the West, because he's starting to look a lot like his early season form with his hand healed up.
What a strong argument![]()
I can't wait to know who are the 5 best SG according to your brilliant mind![]()
CLEVELAND (AP) -Manu Ginobili is planning a trip to Las Vegas during this weekend's NBA All-Star break. Alert the roulette wheels, blackjack tables and pit bosses.
Watch out. This guy's on a serious roll.![]()
