    Manu was all in one .
    Long range shooter.
    Mid range shooter.
    Great passer
    Ball stealing
    Dunking
    Quick and very creative
    Loyal to his team. Respected by his teammates. by his coach. and his opponents.
    He played the sixth man to lift the team when needed a lift.
    He could be a starter in any team.
    He never complained.
    He was the top beloved player by the fans screaming Mana Manu.

    Down to earth guy too. I go to Spurs sports doctor. Understandably, players and former players have a separate entrance to avoid being swamped by fans. One day I was in there with my son. He was/is a huge fan. Ginobili was in the next room with his wife. My son was a freshman in high school and playing fairly high level ball in AAU. I tried to convince him to ask for Ginobili's autograph on the way out. He was too embarrassed. Long story short, that day one BIG name former player and another current player also happened to go into office through private players entrance. Again, O don't blame them. At this point the office was buzzing with electricity. Everyone was excited. People were running out to lobby on phones 'so and so is here and so is so and so and Ginobili!' People started showing up outside the doctors office door to catch a glimpse. It was insane. Ginobil and his wife CHOSE to walk through the everyday people door and greet fans, talk to people, sign autographs and let people get pictures. By this time my son missed his opportunity. The line was long. Manu was gracious and humble and stuck around. He didn't have to do that. His wife was very kind to everyone. I loved watching him play. It was basketball as jazz and filled with passion. The guy only knew one speed: all out. He was so very special and could have gone elsewhere and been option 1 and padded stats. He was a consummate team player and sublimated his ego and his body for wins and rings. We won't see his kind again. Thanks, Manu for playing the game right and being a good man.

    Manu Ginobili is proof that stats don’t tell the tale of the tape, the ability to make the right play at the right time is a lot more important then someone whom is piling up points that doesn’t translate to wins. Stats can be circumstantial, depending on soooo many things! I’d take Manu over a lot of current superstars, he’s someone who’s a team player and will lay out and die on the court. Believe dat!!!

  • @patfer1189
    @patfer1189 2 роки тому +7

    Admirable in so many ways, but a few things to note for younger players:
    a) The precision of his passes. It wasn't just about getting the ball to a teammate. It was about leaving the ball ready for the teammate to shoot. His best passes were all about hitting the ideal spot for the receiving player so that they could easily dribble or shoot without little to no time needed to compose themselves and set their shooting motion.
    b) No gloating or posing for the cameras. He would pull an incredible defensive or offensive play and immediately turn around and get involved with the next action. Too many young players these days think that the game stops for them after they score or stop one play that they perform for the cameras instead of continue playing until there is a whistle.

      Por favor colocar a del potro a la altura de Ginóbili es un despropósito y te deja mal expuesto.

    Manu Ginóbili was drafted in 1999, with the 28th pick of the 2nd round (57th Overall). He was the second to last pick, of that entire draft! No one truly knows during draft time, who the great ones will be. They can only assume and guess.

    Un distinto. Único e irrepetible, cómo extraño verlo jugar! Mas allá de las loas en los comentarios, recuerdo sus últimos 3 años donde mas me emocionó, adaptando su juego y siendo uno de los mejores pasadores de la historia. Eso si, cuando había q meterla y poner orden, el tipo iba y era el uno indiscutido. Que cosa increíble.
