Did Manu "ruin" the series?

[Jimcs50]

Cold Pizza begs the question, did Manu Ginobli "ruin" the series with all his flopping last night?

Also a guest columnist from Detroit was almost giddy, because according to her, now Detroit will be the good guys against the hated Spurs, so now the Spurs will no longer be boring. Now many people will watch the Finals because people loving having teams and players to hate(Manu, Bowen) It is easy to hate the "flopping and dirty, Spurs".


Below is a picture of one of Manu's obvious flops:






I never thought I would see so much loathing from the media about my beloved Spurs. What is it about game 4s that bring out the worst in my Spurs?

[Summers]

He's ruined it for me. I can't bear to watch anymore basketball this season.

[nkdlunch]

I'm loving it and I'm sure Manu is too. Even Tony admitted he loves the bad boys image.

yeah, nice FLOP Manu!!!.................

I cannot deny the fact that Manu flops, but what Fisher did last night was just uncalled for. The Jazz were frustrated and it showed. Ive been hearing about the free throw advantage and how all the whistles went the Spurs way. That is because Ginobili attacked the basket and played aggressive, Utah did not do that.

I told you the Manu's bald spot made that foul !!!!

[MI21]

Difference with the Spurs and Manu is that after that foul, where Okur really didn't make much of a play on the ball, Manu got up and took his FT's. No whining about it. No calling anyone dirty. Just hard playoff basketball.

[GSH]

Sensing that Manu Ginobili is about to flop, Mehmet Okur raises his hand before the whistle is even blown.

winners = bad guys = haters = wgaf= 4

41 FTs was almost as many as the 50 Dallas got against us in 05....I'd say only about 8 of them were questionable though.

[Soul_Patch]

Mehmet Okur is garbage.

AK is at least getting it done on defense...sometimes...but wow..Okur is a complete non factor.

Im really suprised, i really thought he and AK would be very tough for us to manage.

[JamStone]

So, a picture of getting fouled hard means Manu never flops???

Great logic.

The media, obviously.

Hmmmm ... a picture of Manu's flopping means he never got fouled ???? that's is the real question!?

[E20]

Manu flopped? And I'm serious I didn't see any flopping at all.

[sa_butta]

On the Ticket this morning they said this was David Sterns doing because they dont want the Spurs in the Finals, but they REALLY dont want the Jazz in the Finals.

Here is a quote from me in the Fisher thread:

Re: Manu quote on Fisher

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Manu out flopped the Master Flopper, and that was why Fisher got pissed....because he might have lost his le of best actor in the NBA.

I am not a blind homer and if you had any brain cells, you would have noticed that with my posts in here, but if you need me to spell it out for you:

Manu does flop, ok?

But it is ludicrous to say that Manu ruined the series...that is a bit much. Ya think?

Ticky tack...

[Mr. Body]

I didn't even see a Manu flop last night. I'm pretty confused by all this.

I didn't agree with the comment that Manu ruined the series.

I criticized the notion that one picture of Manu obviously getting fouled hard refutes the notion that he flops. That's all.

[sa_butta]

Thats really a bad angle, Okur is not even touching him.

Apparently, like real recognize real, recognize .
