I agree, I am sick of that shyt now, l liked it somewhat in 05, but he relies on it now way more and it is horrible! PERIOD.
Is an absolutely ty shot. Every time he takes his ing stepback, it ends up hitting the front of the rim.
EVERY
SINGLE
TIME
Wish he would just stop taking it..

He doesn't have the lift he had earlier in the season. It's troubling.
You just know that he was going to TAKE that shot, you just hoped he would've gotten a better shot. I'm a bit surprised that Pop ddin't call a better play, where there was more natural ball movement, screens sets (perhaps for Neal) and a hard pick.
Its not so bad, some of the time. He does fail quite a bit, when he shoots it way beyond the three point line, in clutch situations.
He was gassed at the end of the game, and should have tried to find his teammates. Oh ing well. Take the good with the bad when it comes to Ginobili. The problem is the lineup that played really good defense and still scored a load of easy points in the first quarter didn't get any minutes after that.
Spurs Duncan-less and defeated in Denver...Ginobili’s last-ditch 3-point attempt, defended well by Martin, was way off mark.
“There were not many options,” Ginobili said.

His last shot had nothing on it!
He makes the shot, then we all go crazy in the "Ditka couldn't stop Manu tonight" thread and we call him clutch and the #1 Option on the team.
He misses, we say its a stupid shot, and he's tired, and blah blah blah.
Manu's our closer, so I'm not gonna trash him for trying to win the game. I want Manu taking that shot every time.
This...
Dear Manu,
Kenyon Martin is 6'10
Yeah, and he missed. Bad.
Of course we're happy we he makes it, what do you think? I'm happy when Manu or anyone makes stupid shots, but that doesn't make them good shots.
Yes? and these statements wouldn't be accurate?
His shooting has been pretty bad this year and it seems like he's been chucking up more shots than he usually does. I wish he would just stop and find other ways to contribute.
Father Time!
I Love Manu Ginobili
What should we have done to get a better shot? Who would you of rather taken the shot?
Man called Neal.
the problem is not this last shot, the problem is he had 18 FGAs including 12 or 13 3s ! he needs to stop shooting so many 3s thats it.
I have no problem with him taking that or any shot in the clutch... I like the fact that he doesn't shy away from the responsibility of taking them (*ahem* Dirk *ahem*)...
Sometimes it will go in, sometimes it won't...
I'll be worried if he doesn't take it to the rack at the end of the games during the playoffs... right now fire away...
Manu takes some of the most horrible shots I have ever seen, but dude often makes them. I'll take him with the game on the line any time.
It was a reckless shot, but Manu can be clutch.
Time was running out and he had to take the shot since no one else was in position or open. Denver defended us well with 9 seconds to go.
I think if someone takes the trouble to check, you'll find that he was shooting a great percentage on 3s in the first half. Everyone gets tired by the 4th quarter, especially in Denver after a very fast paced game.
The problem wasn't our offense. We simply never stopped Denver after the first half. Again, part of that is the Denver strategy to keep the pace fast, use their deep bench, and let the al ude work its magic on their opponent.
All in all, it was a uva game and entertaining. Let's move on.
This. And for those complaining about Manu going for the 3, vs the 2, its SOP for the road team to go for the win, rather than tie it and go into overtime.
