[Agloco]

Nice. Can't wait to hear Rome as he describes how Manu has some of the biggest stones in the business.

[Budkin]

Rome loves some Manu.

Is this on ESPN or??

[8FOR!3]

I THINK ESPN 2? On First Take right?

[lefty]

Let`s hope Pop won't put words in his mouth:

- JR: Manu, how do you explain the Spurs' great start?
- I'm Manu Ginobili

- How instrumental has TP's play been to the Spurs' success?
- I'm Manu Ginobili

- Are you surprised by the contributions of the young guns, especially Gary Neal?
- I'm Manu Ginobili (to be fair, I boosted his confidence when I drew that play vs the Clippers)

- Do you think you would have repeated in 2006 if you didnt foul Dirk in game 7 ?
- I'm Manu G... hey, wait

Then I guess one of my fake questions was spot on

[BlairForceDejuan]

Manu won't be Spurs next head coach

[SAtown]

- How instrumental has TP's play been to the Spurs' success?
- I'm Manu Ginobili

lol basically, but his response was more subtle. He responded while laughing: "well, Tony deserves all the respect. He makes plays for 45 minutes and I make them the last 3."

So, basically, he said "I'm Manu Ginobili."

lol Rome trying to stir the TP v. Manu pot.

Rome basically makes me sick. Clones... give me a break. Guy thinks he is some sort of God. Best moment ever is when Jim Everett knocked him over in his chair on TV. He is also a huge hypocrite. I hate horses, and now he owns horses that race.

But he has got manu on so I will listen again...

[pgardn]

Not exactly enlightening.

Manu is polite. Wonderful.

Haha, nice

How do I listen to a replay?

[AlleyOopNazi]

Like Jim, he threw soft-ball questions to start off then he moved to questions that haven't been asked before. About the personal and professional relationship between Manu and Tony and how they handle the issues off the court. Manu said they were friends and that he was there for support in personal matters.
He put him on the spot about what he was thinking during the time before his re-signed contract and hypothetically asked if any notions of moving teams was out there especially with all the uncertainty in the Free-Agent pool, and All-Stars moving to Marquee locations and franchises.
Ginobili was extremely humble and shot down the questions of future coaching, wanting to play anywhere other than San Antonio, and when asked about what's different this year with the Spurs, (clearly looking for what is working now on offense) Manu replied that the Spurs' defense was the answer. LOVE IT!

They may not be the best interviews from Gino, but Jim finds good questions to ask on the fly and nearly all of his interviewees divulge deeper than local and national shoot-around/ post-game interviews because of the forum and fan-base.

You mean Chris??

How does him owning horses and you not liking them make him a hypocrite?
The fact that you hate him for owning horses is ridiculous and now you will listen to him makes you a hypocrite.
