Honestly i dont really understand why manu fans would be upset if he would come off the bench...
If TP wouldn't be starter and would play the same minutes and produce the same numbers to be 100% in the 4th... i honnestly wouldn't mind benching him...
Yeah.. I know, you' re probably right and everything, but you know how it is... a starter is a starter, and Manu could also be starting and replaced like in the first minutes to the same effect.
Well GREG POPOVICH gave everybody here that hated on him a nice big shut the up!
@ all the idiots who ed in this thread.
Exactly.
Pop should have made this switch months ago when I brought it up. It makes way too much sense not to do it. You get fragile-minded Brent Barry into the starting lineup and let him get into a rhythm. Barry can space out the floor and make it easier for Parker and Duncan.
Then when Manu comes off the bench, it's over. No team can match his energy coming off the bench. If the game is close, Manu will blow it open.
This move is genius. The only bad part is Pop should have gone with this lineup when I originally brought it up.
I would ask for apologies, but there were too many people who called me out and who couldn't understand the difference between a move that would help the team and a "demotion".
timvp strikes again.
Props to you timvp!
I still hate it since he's the better player and deserves to be there in the starting lineup, but it has been working so might as well and I'm just thankful he didn't hurt his ankle for the rest of the playoffs.
Yeah good call timpv some people in chat busted the claws out when they heard Manu was coming off the bench, I was like whats the big deal that mofo has some energy in him off the bench.

He's usually right.
well im glad that pop had to do what he thought was best for us to get the W. if it took benching ginobili, good, let him come off the bench and provide a spark. i think brent did his part today and played like a starter
BULL !
Same minutes??? You have to be kidding me, right??????????
Your boy played like crap last POs when it did matter same as last game...Manu got "promoted" to the bench and u have the nerve to say u would be cool w/Tony in the same situation?
Guess what? U will never be in the same situation coz TP is Pop's golden- frankenstein-boy creation. He has divine protection (as well as all the sharp shooter sgs Spurs get in the off season).
Exactly.
Thanks.

Time will tell...as it did last season...
What did Spurs win last POs? hu? I can tell u: SECOND ROUND EXIT!
Manu is still da bomb. This is just a better use of talent.
He's happy with it. You should be too.
Argentina should be proud.
Athenea scares me when shes upset about Manu.
We had this discussion in chat tonight. Pop made a good move by moving manu to the bench and having a spark off of the bench. We even discussed that Manu coming off the bench allows him to be much fresher then other players. Not many players are able to match manus intensity as is. But then again i got yelled and cursed at by some Spur fans so...
all is ok timvp your not the only one. And once again you were right
Wtf you said you were gonna come judochop me or some and you were a blackbelt in something so I had to hide under my desk before thine wraith.cowardEither way Manu still did great coming off the bench.
No one ever recognizes greatness timvp.
Yeah no matter how hard I try to throw it in their faces.
barry hitting his threes wouldnt have meant jack if duncan hadn't been flawless for the entire first quarter
barry was icing on the cake, and his shots spread out the D for better looks in the 2nd.
But the nuggets played tim straight up for the entire first half and some of the second. Duncan owned the nuggz tonight guys, make no mistakes about that.
i was surprised brent ended 4 for 4 though, way to go brent!
I diasagree...Barry is one of the Spurs that almost seems to play better without Duncan, that's why I am still not sold on this move. But I think him going 4-4 with Duncan was kind of a breakthrough. But his numbers have an impact outside of Duncan and they have all season long. Look at the Houston game.
The guy Barry plays the best with is Manu. And I think Manu plays better with Barry than just about anyone other than Duncan...unfortunately we are usually subbing one for the other.
I don't like the move but you can't argue with the results.
In a perfect world, Manu would start and Devin would be the energy off the bench. But it isn't and Manu knows this will improve the current team, and so do I.
I feel your pain Athnea because I respect Manu and I want him to get the credit he deserves. In the big picture, Manu played great and he said all the right things. It doesn't look like he is too worried about it.
