What other teams would give up to get Manu?

[urunobili]

i wonder what y'all think about that... he has been playing impressively lately so i think it's a good time to get your opinion... Arenas? Redd? I'm all ears...

[mystargtr34]

Hard to say... given his age i dont see Washington or the Bucks giving up either of those guys... but i do think Manu is right there as a player.

[baseline bum]

Their left nut?

[TDMVPDPOY]

redd is overrated

dude plays no defense

[Dave McNulla]

judging from what they've told me, mav fans would stop liking the mavs if ginobili went to their team. i think they are lying. i think they'd have a love affair with his play immediately.

And to think this guy was known as a premier defender in his college days.

There are some players I could trade for Ginobili, but I wouldn't do it. This guy just gives you wins. And he's proven.

[Fabbs]

Even with his narcisstic whiney personality the Spurs would consider Kome for Manu.

[Walter Craparita]

Any team would give up something to get Manu.

Manu is on the highest level you can get to. He is just flat out a CHAMPION. He has the most heart out of anyone in the league. His constant pesky defense changes games. He gets smacked in the face and he kicks it up 10 more levels to just dominate the game.

Josh Smith and 1st rounder.

[inconvertible]

only kobe compares to manu.....for sheer impact on a game.

[Matchman]

McGrady for Ginobili + Finley + 1st rounder

wow, i hope you're 11 years old...and even then i'm not sure that would justify such a statement.

Manu works well in this system, he's obviously a good fit for the spurs, but there are many players that would be just as good a fit. I love the guy, but to say that these players ...Tmac, kobe, Lebron, dwight howard, amare, steve nash, garnett, ray allen...couldnt impact a game as he can is ridiculous.

I agree...except for ray allen and dumbass amare (the ultimate example of benefiting from a "system").

And...how many of those guys would willingly play, on average, 30 or less minutes a night coming off the bench? This isn't to say that they're not better or more talented than Manu. And it also proves that Manu is a perfect fit for our system, but I'm not so sure about just any elite player being able to be plugged in, in place of Manu.

Josh Smith and 1st rounder.

Best joke of 2007

[bresilhac]

McGrady for Ginobili + Finley + 1st rounder

Are you kidding me? A proven champion for a proven choker? Plus Fin? I don't think so.

[romain.star]

Difference between Manu the proven champion and Tmac the proven choker?


TIM DUNCAN

[urunobili]

Gerald Wallace +Okafor? ANYONE?

Difference between Manu the proven champion and Tmac the proven choker?


TIM DUNCAN

--------> What if ... you put Yao and Ginobili on the same team ? :P , Manu is an all star by himself, not because of TD, but some people just don't see that because Manu is a team player.

good for him ! But we all know that Manu and Tony are proven winners (in the NBA) because they play in TD's team. None of them would have a ring without him...

[manubili]

Duncan wouldn't have his last two rings if it wasn't fo Manu and Tony either. That's the beauty of the Spurs and bball in general.

[SouthernFried]

I wouldn't trade anyone for Manu. Not Kobe, not lebron...no one.

[urunobili]

I wouldn't trade anyone for Manu. Not Kobe, not lebron...no one.

the thread is about what do you think OTHER teams (not if we would trade him ourselves) would give for him

TIM DUNCAN

tmac is a second round virgin who hasnt won anything in his career, outside of an allstar game or the fiba america tourney (maybe his HS team won a championship?). manu has won everywhere he's played except the WC, including an olympics against duncan (where he totally outplayed him btw). am i implying manu is better than duncan? of course not. im just showing he is not dependent on him. and tracy cant exactly say he doesnt have help anymore. is it that hard to make it to the 2nd round, east or west?

[diego]

anyways no one can really trade for manu- his contract is a total bargain for the way he is playing, and as long as he has that value the spurs wouldn't get equal value back- they'd have to include a bunch of players to match salary with someone who could fill manu's role, and thus open up more holes. if manu becomes injury prone, and starts settling for jumpers in the 4th (like, say, tmac ), then maybe the spurs will decide his contract doesnt justify his production and settle for less.

i'm not talking FIBA... the difference between Tmac and Manu IN THE NBA is TD. Period
