Could The Spurs Be Better Without Manu?

[timvp]

And my conclusion is that those number are bull relative to judging Manu’s importance on this team, that your logic is flawed. Is that to difficult for you to comprehend?

You mean the numbers are flawed because of the small amount of samples? If that is your conclusion, congrats on figuring out what everyone else in this thread concluded as well.

I'm sorry that even pointing at numbers that question the Spurs is such a hard thing for you to handle. Maybe next time have someone hold your hand when you open one of my threads.

Thanks.

Buddy Holly, theres a pothole on Blanco road, go write a pe ion for it.



IMO, If Devin Brown were further along in his progress, and you could rely on Brent Barry to come through offensively in 4th quarters, I would trade Ginobili.


Ginobili would get you a DAMN good post presence.

It's not my fault I saw stupid and call it on itself (you question).

[timvp]

I am talking about you, I made the assumption that you believed the Spurs are better without Manu, you disagreed, I simply stated that you wouldn't have asked the question of this thread if you didn't believe it in some way shape or form.

Apology accepted. Next time don't assume until you read the entire thread, not just the le.

[Spurminator]

Which brings us back to Manu for Martin.

Yea or Nay?

Think about it...

FC - Duncan
F - Martin
F - Bowen
G - Barry/Brown
G - Parker

With Barry or Brown off the bench with Rasho.

Enticing...


(Or could we even do better than Martin?)

Ducks has compe ion.

Oh man, that one hurt. It did.

By the way, where you by chance jumping up and down on Blanco Road?

IMO, If Devin Brown were further along in his progress, and you could rely on Brent Barry to come through offensively in 4th quarters, I would trade Ginobili.


Ginobili would get you a DAMN good post presence.

But we're not at the point where Devin is a 12 and 6 guy or Brent is 5 years younger.

I'd trade Barry and maybe even Devin before Manu.

You're an idiot TPug.

[Manu20]

The one thing the Spurs do better when Manu does not play is take care of the ball. In the Portland game they had 8 turnovers as a team and against the Wizards they had 10. I wonder why????

[SpursWoman]

Ginobili would get you a DAMN good post presence.

What? And take away Rasho's minutes? WTF?

[bigzak25]

don't forget manu's D. sure bruce is our money man, but manu logs good minutes on the defensive side as well....

and one shot for 3 in the playoffs to win the game....you want barry, beno, devin, bowen, parker or manu taking that shot? rank'em. and remember who's hit big 3's in the playoffs for us before when you do.

[ShoogarBear]

[T Park]

I would explain my stance on Nesterovic for the billionth time, But ill refrain for the children in the audience.

If you could trade Ginobili, and get a PJ Brown, a Kenyon Martin, a Nazy Mohammed, IMO, you do it.

Big men are much harder to come by, than great forwards.


I agreed with TIMVP this summer when he said take Manu's money and give it to Boozer.

Boozer, Duncan, Bowen, Brown Parker is a dynasty waiting to happen.

Plus, Rasho would improve coming off the bench, playing against lesser compe ion, AND, not having to be next to Duncan.

[Frenchise player]

This remind me that a while ago, some fans wanted to start Beno and trade parker.
Now it is time for Manu to be criticize. Duncan must watch out before someone step up and say somethin like we should trade Duncan for O'Neil or Garnett

[T Park]

barry, beno, devin, bowen, parker or manu

Manu
Devin
Barry
Beno
Bowen
Parker



No question Manu is on the top of that list, but, you trading Manu getting back an all star Forward, you prob wouldnt have to worry about it.

[T Park]

O'Neil or Garnett

If you offered me garnett for Duncan??

Id have to think about it.

Id prob take it.

[Marcus Garvey]

Would you pay KG with this paper:

Leave it to you to misinterpret a good-natured tease.

[T Park]

Sniff, I didnt see a smile.

[violentkitten]

an overlooked factor in this discussion is that if you drop manu then you lose quality argentine bandwagon fans like ALVAREZ

[ShoogarBear]

Damn. This thread, goofy as it started, is approaching Classic status.

[san antonio spurs]

I'm just surprised that a man who was invited at the roundtable to discuss about the NBA and the spurs,someone considered having enlightened opinions can start such a BS thread.
BS because u can't ask if the spurs could be better without MANU?were u really serious when u asked that?or u were just bored??

spurs fans always let blind love get in the way when it comes to basketball.

Read the thread, san antonio, texas has a basketball team named the Spurs in the league commonly known as the N.B.A.

BUT, what if we got a Balla in return?

A balla??? that.

This thread is re ed.

[ChumpDumper]

After a little more research, the Spurs were 4-1 in the five games that Manu missed last year. In those five games, the Spurs held the opponent to 80.6 points per game.

A Manu-for-Hedo argument if I ever saw one. Of course we all know that isn't true.

If you want to trade him for a big man, I guess that's ok -- but what are we paying Malik the same money for?

I really wanted to get another shotblocker on the team, I'd still call up Lonnie Jones before someone else gets a chance to. It's going to happen and the next draft is very bad for getting a decent big man to boot. We're going to be shrugging our shoulders saying things like, "maybe Channing Frye will turn the corner in Pop's system."

Maybe we'll be able to trade Wilks for a project in the offseason.
