Manu Ginobili is the ing truth!!!

[exstatic]

Larry Bird used to say it's easy to do it the first three quarters but the great ones deliver down the stretch. Not calling Tim a choke, but he fell apart that last minute of the 4th and the entire OT period. The reverse was Horry who stunk the 1st 3 quarters and balled when it counted.

It's a team game, AND it's not like Tim always stinks late. I would say that was the exception.

If Fish doesn't hit .4, Tim's uber-clutch long moving jumper wins that game, for example.

totally, tim can be super clutch. Note game 6 against the lakers in '03. I'm just saying he fell apart in game 5.

oi i just hop on got class in 20mins,did gino turned the pacers into water

Actually, he's supposedly healed, but hesitant to miss more time by landing on someone again. Dunks are overrated.

There is no way he's fully healed. He can't be more than 80%, tops. If he was worried about landing on people, he should go for dunks, so he can protect himself by hanging on the rim if people are underneath. He's a lot more likely to land wrong by shooting awkward teardrops a la Tony.

I'm not knocking Manu's game at all, he's my favorite player, and he was awesome today, but watching him last year and this year, he's not nearly as explosive. The difference this year is that his shooting is more consistent, though. His midrange game is a lot better, it's not all layups and 3s.

But you could tell his legs aren't right, because he's not trying to rebound at all anymore.

Tim went fetal in game 5? He had 26/19. I'd say he did his part.

How much of that came in the fourth?

how can you of all people not respect Detroit. They were so close to beating the spurs that you bailed on the Spurs and predicted a Detroit victory.

It is not about not respecting Detroit. The question is, how can "you people" not respect San Antonio. Stop with the lame woulda-coulda-shouda. The Spurs made more plays than Detroit and won a tough series. End of Story.

As for TPark bailing, perhaps he was as foolins last year as you sound this year. At least he learned his lesson.

Your schooling has started with the current streak, and will continue as the Spurs roll in June.

Here's a hint, read the thread before responding. Spurs get mad love on this site. Just most spurs fans have a brain and respect detroit.

His job is to bail us out when Duncan crawls into the fetal position?

His job is to hit the open three at the end of the game. Tim's job is to make sure we have a chance for SOMEONE, him or anyone else, to do that.

Manu is the Truth? . . . that's not what sequ told me!

hitting that 3 at the end of the game is a lot harder than you think. Ask Tim who missed a one footer at the end of regulation to win. But again it sounds like I'm downing Tim which I'm not. Tim Duncan is a Monster.

Manu is the Truth about every 5th game.

[leemajors]

shouldn't you be pissed duncan didn't have 30/15?

[Peter]

No TD and the Spurs are 20-30 right now, on the outside of the playoff picture looking in and hoping to get hot, just like every other scrub team. Not utilizing the best low post threat in the game is sheer stupidity, not only for the lack of TD's production but also for the lack of the myriad opportunities he creates for his teammates. Leave it to an Aggie to complain about putting the rock in TD's hands on the low block.

[George W Bush]

Shut up Peter, I almost read your work in the Bible but you had no piktures.
I'm very upset about that.

God Bless America

manu is the best player in the NBA but i thought paul pierce was the truth

[Peter]

Nah, TD is the best player in the L. TD has made both TP and Manu All-Stars.

Both those guys would be all-stars without TD as long as Tony had Pop.
