all time top 20
in regards to others in his position?
all time top 20
"very good"
My 1st pick
Very good, as above.
all time top 20
Among Active players... Top 10. His fourth quarter runs are unbelievable when he has the rhythm. He had his ups and downs in his career and in big games (like the Dallas series last year). When Manu is hot he's pretty much unstoppable in money time. At this point of his career I'd still rank T-Mac, Tim, Kobe, Shaq and Reggie Miller higher. But considering that he still has some seasons left I'd say he might go down in the top 15 in this category.
In today's game, he's up there. When he's in rhythm and has confidence, there aren't many other players I'd rather have in the fourth quarter of a big game.
However, it's early to start putting him on all-time lists. If he adds another championship to his resume, then perhaps it'll be time.
When he's on he's one of the best ever...but he's not on as much as some others have been. It'd be nice if he had the consistency of a guy like Vinnie Johnson...
What hurts him is the same thing that keeps him from being an MVP caliber guard...consistency.
Consistency is under-rated
Sin,
Duncan
Top 10 for sure ... but there're many good players in the league.
Yeah for one stretch this season, he was the best player in the NBA. He was just dominating the league. Then he can have a stretch like he did earlier in the playoffs where you wonder if his glory days are over.
With Manu you just have to hope that he's healthy and playing well at the right time. And right now is a good time to be healthy and playing well.
Yes, It's the same with him than with Manu. When T-Mac found his rhythm he's pretty much the same like Manu. The main difference is that Manu does it more often. But considering that T-Mac is much longer in the league than Manu he's still above him.
yeah, and most of them are on vacation right now.
When he gets hot he's easily in the top ten
You sound as if you're not expecting another one with that IF.
It's only a matter of weeks.
you owned me
Manuficent!!!!!!
There are very few players in the history of basketball that I have seen that can be compared to Emanuel Ginobili.
He is probably the most incredible player that ever played here in italy.
It's not the stats.
It's not the dunks, fastbreaks, passes, defense, 3 pointers.
It's all of that, when it matters, with style and no effort.
In one word.
Class.
100% pure, crystal clear class.
it's funny to see how quick things change in here... one or two weeks ago, he was a joke and now he's an all of famer...
He must be somewhere in between
what Manu has ,It doenst show in the stats sheets.Simple
A big pair of Argentinian Balls.And ice-cold blood.
What other current 2 or 3 would you want in a situation like the start of the 4th in last night's game? Kobe? Anyone else? Manu is definitely in elite company when it comes to winning time.
Absolutely.
Balls.
Desire.
GREED.
Manu has incredible hustle and balls as big as grapefruit, but top 20 all time talk is not only premature but presumptuous.
He's a perfect fit for the Spurs system and the Spurs system is a perfect fit for him.
His streakiness would be exposed on a team where he had to be "the man" every night and didn't have other players to draw double teams.
