    Ok.... I think that Manu Ginobili is owed a SERIOUS apology from every scout and head office in the NBA. He was passed up over 50 times in the draft before the Spurs finally snagged him. He actually didn't even know that he had been drafted for awhile. I think that he is the most important and talented bench player in this league. He provides an explosiveness that no other player can match. He alone nearly matched Utah's entire scoring in the 4th, and single handedly pissed off EVERYONE in Utah.... He is a wonderful, unselfish and great defensive player.
    So to all you other teams who passed him up.... Eat your hearts out!

    He's not a bench player IMO. Pop made it one cause he's a team player and just gets the job done anyway. Secondly, he is just too good to be on any bench.

    I know he doesn't DESERVE to be a bench player.... That's exactly my point! Any other player in this league would be throwing a wall-eyed fit for being benched... Ginobili's most admirable quality is that he is willing to do what is best for his team's stats rather than for his own.

    I thought Tony Parker had a really good 2nd quarter tonight.

    I am not refering to the teams FT shooting.... I'm refering to DUNCAN"S! He needs a private one, cuz apparently the one he's sharing with everyone else, ain't doin much good... He's the undisputed master of this team... But with some FT work, he would be untouchable (literatly)!

    Yeah... he would probably be the best power forward of all time........

    Great take!

    And I said FREE THROW shooting coach.... There is a difference... A FT coach would help him be able to drown out distractions and concentrate at the FT line.
