Ginobili

Does anyone else subscribe to the theory that Ginobli is the best player in the NBA at the minute. His behind the back reverse layup yesterday to seal the game was outrageous. He is the guy the Spurs give the ball to now when the game is on the line. He is also very unselfish and brings others into the game and even comes off the bench sometimes when the team requires it.

The guy is an out an out GENIUS.

Ginobili is good, but I wouldn't rate him as the best player in the NBA. I think that Nash is a much better player than Ginobili. What about someone like Prince from the Pistons, how good of a defensive player is he? He's nowhere near the best player in the league but I thought he deserved a mention.

I would still pick a player of Nash's calibre over a Ginobili.

But that's just my opinion.

Nash is playing better, but Manu is getting wins. It's like the old Wilt v Russell, Wilt got better stats but Russell had the most 'ships. Who's better?

Why is Nash playing better? His man (Parker) has droped over 25 on him both games. Manu is doing EVERYTHING on the court and making the plays when it counts. Look past the stats people. Listen to Walton.

i would go as far to say that ginobili is the best player in the league as far as form goes. I rate him massively and think hes better than nash.

And the things he does cant be told through stats. hes such a tough player, who constantly scraps and causes so many problems for defenses.

and on the denfensive end his constant hussling causes tons of problems for the offence, hes a massive weapon and a proven game winner

gilobili is way to sketchy. if u watch nash ull notice hes fluint and know what he must do and how to do it. gilobili is all over the place.

And ya they shoulda called it a travle.

besides that i think that wade is even doing better than ginobili rite now. look at wat hes doing with the heat. although i do think miami will lose to detriot i say that wade in virtually unstoppable. rite now my list goes like this:
1 nash
2 wade
3 rasheed wallace
4 ginobili

undersized pf why do you always care for people height.are you paranoid so much about your 5'11 inch frame?

cheezeburger, obviously height is a massive deal for u seeing as your always building up your height , plus your height is useless now anyway coz you barred playin bball, coz the kleenex tissues factory called.

ginobili is one of the toughest man in the game. He always barrels towards the basket with no care for his body

I watched him tonight ... the Spurs were very unlucky not to take the series 4-0 .. Need more imput from Duncan ..

Bowen was good too when they needed him ..

How crazy was that "block"(looked like a goal tend) Amare did on Duncan attempted dunk near the end of the 4th !! Strong !

Steve Nash 13 assists or something and limited scoring ..

But i have to agree MANU is the man right now ..

ginobili anint soft ill say that. but on the other hand hes to reckless he risks plays he dosent hav to. then theres duncan if he gets in trouble.

ur wondering y i put sheed up there. he delivers. down 2-1 he promised the wood win the next game vs. indiana and he delivered winning the series 4-2. he may not b scoreing the points like ginobili and nash and wade, but he is posting good stats and makeing smart decisions and plays. he cums up big wen he needs to.

Dirk, I don't see Ginobili as reckless. He makes unorthodox plays in clutch situations because he can.

He has supreme confidence. I love the way he plays.

Check out his fg% and 3pt% in the playoffs. He isn't taking bad shots.

Nash is soft on D. Ginobili is having the better series then Nash and crunch time is when it all matters.

cheezeburger is rite. u saw the final game of the series. ginobili is still developing his skills. he'll get better in the yrs to come, but duncan is better. expecially on the defensiv end.

no doubt that ginobili is still improving, which to me is quite scary for the rest of the league, but ginobili has had a stella playoff campaign and has shown maturity beyond his years.

what i really like about ginobili is his outstanding work ethic and desire.

lp and manumania should be campaigners for anti-drug programs..... these two are perfect examples why people should not snort coke, i wastes the brain.........

Sorry, the Spurs are a Timmy D driven machine. Without him, the Spurs are ordinary. I rate Manu highly, but I also recognise who is the MVP of the Spurs. Timmy D by a long shot.
