He is good...

"As of now, Ginobili is one of only five players to average at least 14 points, 3.5 rebounds, four assists and one steal while maintaining a true shooting percentage of 58 or better for his career. The other four: Stephen Curry, James Harden, LeBron James and Magic Johnson."
"Five players have also averaged at least 15 points, four rebounds, four assists and one steal with a true shooting percentage of 58 or better in the postseason. Ginobili is one of them, and he joins Curry, Harden, Johnson and Chris Paul. Johnson and Ginobili are the only two to sustain those benchmarks through 75 or more contests.Among all guards, Ginobili ranks sixth all time in playoff win shares with 19.3, just behind Dwyane Wade's 19.8. That, for the record, puts Ginobili ahead of Parker—who ranks 14th with 12.7—despite the former logging nearly 2,000 fewer minutes of postseason action."
"To this day, he still owns one of the best seasons the league has ever seen from any player age 30 or older. He closed out the 2007-08 campaign averaging 19.5 points, 4.8 rebounds, 4.5 assists and 1.5 steals with a true shooting percentage of 61.2.
Only two other players in that same age group have matched those statistical touchstones: Larry Bird and Johnson. That was still only good enough for All-NBA third-team consideration."

Manu will have a better year next season.
Manu is still my favorite player
Manu the Magician
Pop the Sage
Boban the Barbarian
West the Warrior
LaMarcus the shooting star
yiiiiiiiiiiiiihhhhhhhhhhhhaaaa
we are going to rock next season
I missed the 2005 super Manu
The reason Ginobili only made third team is because Pop limits his minutes. It's a legitimate argument whether he could sustain it for more minutes.
Are they playing basketball or Dungeons and Dragons?![]()
Duncans and Dragons, anyone? Anyone?
.... ahhh, I'll try again tomorrow.
Timmy's in!

Agreed!
Cant you just stop whining tbh ?
Fun fact: he was the Miami Heat's best player in the 2013 Finals.
I'm not whining. I'm giving orders.
Yes he will, I believe he will play more relaxed knowing what can of team is around him. More youth, scoring and defense. He will also enjoy it more knowing his career is coming to an end

Manu is like those cult movies. They don't get the limelight of blockbuster movies but folks that really know what's up know that they are just as good, if not better.
As of now, Ginobili is one of only five players to average at least 14 points, 3.5 rebounds, four assists and one steal while maintaining a true shooting percentage of 58 or better for his career. The other four: Stephen Curry, James Harden, LeBron James and Magic Johnson.
To this day, he still owns one of the best seasons the league has ever seen from any player age 30 or older. He closed out the 2007-08 campaign averaging 19.5 points, 4.8 rebounds, 4.5 assists and 1.5 steals with a true shooting percentage of 61.2.
Only two other players in that same age group have matched those statistical touchstones: Larry Bird and Johnson. That was still only good enough for All-NBA third-team consideration.
"I studied Manu Ginobili," D'Angelo Russell, now of the Los Angele Lakers, told NBA TV ahead of the draft, per Silver Screen and Roll's Drew Garrison. "Not a lot of guys really valued his play. Growing up that was a guy that I really focused on."
No other player has ever cleared 10 points, three rebounds and four assists per game in under 23 minutes of action as Ginobili did this past season.

TURNOBLI!
Parker was at least as important for the past 4 championships, hopefully he will recover his all-star form. The Spurs need both for the 6.
