Thank god Michael Jordan had Bill Cartwright, or who knows if he ever would have gotten a ring.
Sure it does. What league do the Spurs play in?

if you don't know that u shouln't be posting. it doesn't matter what league, a great player is a great player. this has been proven.
Nah. If I ever come to the table with something as silly as "Fiba rules" as the strongpoint of my arguement, I'll make sure I can back it up with facts and evidence, instead of cowering behind bull .

yeah it was all thanks to Duncan
Now Manu = MJ?
Not until he can actually carry a NBA team on his own into the postseason. Even the great Kobe couldn't do that last season.

Yeah, it's silly to understand a rather significant difference between the NBA and the Olympics.
see now you're getting it! Now u just accepted Kobe is great. Next step is to acknowledge Manu is great too.
Yawn ... that became a very a hard read. Sad at the result from such a great potential topic.
As a note to the challanged: Manu and TP's development into stars does nothing to disrespect TD or lessen his importance in future championship runs.
From a hoops standpoint, most who understand the game know the importance of a low post threat. As such most on this board accept all teams and all players are better, and will go further in the NBA playoffs when they play beside a dominant big man.
The sad part is the facts above are not related on bit to the discussion at hand. Yet for some reason the confused one continued to hijack this thread painting a picture of pure ignorance.
Not acknowledging the undisputed clutch TEAM play of Manu, demonstrates a level of denial hard to comprehend. Manu is simply the most decorated player in all of hoops for this era for a combination of team and individual accomplishments. His clutch play cannot be denied. End of story!
Have either carried a team into the NBA playoffs, let alone the Finals?
Sure, and as long as the confused ones assert that Manu is on par with a Duncan then they will be in error. Manu needs a TD to be able to make it to the next level. If you cannot appreciate the game without having to be a blind homer to all things Spurs, well, too bad.
Nobody asserted Manu was on par with Duncan.
You deny Manu would be even a star w/o Duncan, that he couldn't even take a team to the playoffs. Everybody thinks you are wrong. They have cited much evidence, tried logic, and yes, have tried screaming at you and calling you names; none of it has worked.
I am forced to the conclusion that "Peter" is simply a negative processing Web algorithim which has stumbled upon this blog, devoid of reason and logic, and simply designed as a permanent devil's advocate. I suggest we not feed the Peter.
Nope, someone did.
Right, most of the arguments presented were based on screaming and namecalling. Surest sign that they have no response.You deny Manu would be even a star w/o Duncan, that he couldn't even take a team to the playoffs. Everybody thinks you are wrong.

Ah yes, the trademark Spurstalk.com response to that which does not glorify a Spur in kneejerk fashion.I am forced to the conclusion that "Peter" is simply a negative processing Web algorithim which has stumbled upon this blog, devoid of reason and logic, and simply designed as a permanent devil's advocate.

"someone"
If you can find any such statement in this thread saying Manu is a bigger star than Manu, post it. If not STFU!
You are the one who hijacked the thread with lies and misquotes to serve your own insecurities about Manu getting some of Tim's love.
Now crawl back into your box and have your Mommie lock the cage. You have been out trying to play with the big boys and girls too long. I can say with confidence that it is really getting annoying for most of the board with your slow state.
the problem is when Peter is unable to find the phantom statement that "someone " said that Manu is better than TD, he will realize the chunk of his life that he has wasted posting. Happy hunting.
I never misquote. What insecurity is there to attempt to be a little objective when assessing the Spurs? If there's any insecurity in this thread on display, it's from those who are unwilling to do anything save for blindly worshipping a player because he's a Spur.You are the one who hijacked the thread with lies and misquotes to serve your own insecurities about Manu getting some of Tim's love.
Oh no.Now crawl back into your box and have your Mommie lock the cage. You have been out trying to play with the big boys and girls too long. I can say with confidence that it is really getting annoying for most of the board with your slow state.
Yeah, I guess I shouldn't annoy the board with an honest appraisal. Better to march in lockstep with everyone else.
so, he said gnob's team beat duncan's team. the us did lose to argentina. nowhere in that statement does he say gnob is a bigger star than duncan. thanks for proving our point after all this time.
Is that not the implication? At worst, the implication would be that Manu is on par with TD. That is not the case in the NBA. So for that, I get 5 pages of namecalling and screaming. Sobeit. I'd rather not have such blind loyalty cons ute what it means to be a fan.
No Peter, it is not an implication that because Manu led his Olympic team to victory over TD's US team that Manu > Tim. The first is a fact. The second would be on opinion ... that no one on this board displayed ... and only you appear to be obsessed with.
In relation to your comments on the blind loyality, how much better do you see with your head stuck in the ground?
Damn. The next time he gets owned, I think I'll just keep it to myself. Looks like I created a monster.
On second thought, nah. It's too much fun watching him get all riled up.
Actually that was the implication.
Much better than to have my head stuck in the Spurs' collective ass.In relation to your comments on the blind loyality, how much better do you see with your head stuck in the ground?

More of the same. No surprise.
