#3. Bruce Bowen - The guy has a work ethic that some players could only dream about. He plays hard defense and isn't afraid to push the envelope. Maybe he gets a little dirty sometimes, but all the best defenders do.
#2. Manu Ginobili - He's unpredictable, a little wild, and one of the best. He risks his body every time he sets his feet on the hardwood. He plays a knockout, drag-out, balls-out game that few can match. He's a little streaky at times, but in the cruch, you want him on the floor.
#1. Tim Duncan - Since 1997, he has been the epitome of Spurs basketball. Unassuming, calculated, focused. He doesn't beat his chest, star in music videos, rant about "practice", or yank his jersey to one side to "show he has heart". He goes out there, does his job, and wins les. He's the #1 reason why San Antonio is the new " letown, U.S.A." He doesn't talk trash or disrespect the compe ion, and doesn't think he's above reproach. He's always looking to improve his skills. He is, without a doubt, the greatest power foward to ever play the game. But he'd never say it. It's just not his way.

Hmm... I think you're quite confused. It took 3 years from the time Manu was drafted (1999) to the time he became a Spur (2002), in which time he went from scrawny, goofy looking prospect from a marginal league to Italian champion and MVP, Euroleague champion and finals MVP, and undisputed leader of the silver medalist Argentina NT that first beat the USA team in the World Championships. So yeah, I think it's pretty fair to say Manu was a FIBA star prior to becoming a Spur and had he entered the draft with such status he'd have been a sure fire lottery pick.Yeah, that must be why he was drafted so high.
HReally??
tell us more stories from the olden days
Manu's name is also the most entertaining to yell out...
Yeah well, that was my exact reaction when I read the argument which prompted my reply, which didn't seem to take that well known fact into consideration.
No, I think that the democrats are a little bit less harmful than the republicans.
Either way I don't trust any politician.
Manu beating Tim by this much is embarassing, you call yourselves Spurs fans.
I'm not surprised Manu is more popular. The thread is about favorites, not about the best player on the team or the reason we have 4 les. Manu has personality and an incredibly gutsy, flashy game. He stands out, I'm not at all surprised that he's the favorite Spur on ST.Manu beating Tim by this much is embarassing, you call yourselves Spurs fans.
Manu has personality, when did this happen???
Manu has personality, when did this happen???Compared to Duncan he does. Manu does great interviews, he even posts on his site. He just seems to connect with his fans.
You know I'm a Duncan fan, and I love Duncan's personality. He's got a great sense of humor, and his game speaks for itself. But Manu has a pizzazz that Duncan doesn't show.
manu even has time warner dijjatalcable
Manu for president!
Everyone who doesn't vote Manu is a George W lover and a nerd.
WTF????
This is unbelievable. How can anyone not pick TD in this poll????
If TD were drafted by Boston, the Spurs would have ZERO, countem, ZERO NBA championships right now.
I love Manu and Tony, but TD made it possible for both to become stars, not vice versa.
Did Tim also help Manu win the Olympics Gold Medal? Seriously, Tony and Manu are amazing players on their own.
I think the whole team makes each other better. But to say that Manu and Tony are only good because TD is on the team is ridiculous.
Tony has improved every single year on his own. His jump shot improvement has nothing to do with TD. He also has matured and become a smarter player, also on his own.
And when Manu came to the Spurs team in 2002, he was already an accomplished player...who has won numerous accolades. Not to mention, he has an Olympic gold medal and a bunch of MVPs and etc...That's his own development. And he is a proven clutch player.
I think it helps The Big Three to play together because they make each other better and because it takes pressure off of them. Plus, it's good to have three superstars on one team. But give some credit to Tony and Manu. The Spurs are what they are due to four players: Tim/Manu/Tony/Bruce. All four of them.
ducks has to be pretty pissed off . . .
I am a Spurs fan because of Manu Ginobili.
Tim Duncan for me man. The post moves, the same game every game, and no one still able to stop him. You think he doesn't have much of an impact at the game, look at the statsheet and he has 20 points 10 rebounds, 3 blocks lol.
That guy is the reason Im a Spurs fan. I just watched some basketball, Spurs v. Lakers, and this guy was killing them. I knew the Lakers were popular but I never knew about the Spurs. The next year I rooted for the Spurs all the way while my family was against them lol for some reason, and they won the championship.
Tony Parker is my man, when I was in High School I played Basketball for my school and I always used to copy Tony's game. I have a similar body size to him so it wasn't too hard to learn a few moves from watching him. Tony's the man.
