Que vivan Los Mighty Spurs
He was still doing euro steps during speech
and falling a little bit, maybe that's why he decided to retire..
Jianyi Zhang see it!!!
lol yeah and thats okey
Maybe he was on a little substance influence khmm.
😂😂😂
I will do my best to translate his Spanish to English.
7:15 “To my family and friends form Argentina.
You all might be thinking that you all did not have an influence in my career since the majority of my career was spent far from home… but being far from home I knew of your all’s efforts to watch my games, of sleeping at 3 or 4 in the morning knowing that your alarm for work would go off at 7am. I know some of you screamed insults at your television set, I know some of you would celebrate by jumping on the couches. All that got to me… and it pushed me a little bit more. And for that, thank you, to everyone who is over here, which you are a lot, and to everyone who is at home.”
11:05 to his National Team of Argentina
“How beautiful it was to play with you all. What a pleasure. Knowing that in whatever court that we played in, we were going to be a group that was united. That we were going to watch each others backs. That at whatever place we were going to celebrate in, if we won, we were going to have a good time… but if we lost, we were going to have an even better time because we were going to do things that were invaluable. And that was going to strengthen our group, our bond. And therefor, for all that time, for all those friendships and all those experiences, Thank you so much, Fabricio, to everyone in the arena, and to all those back home.”
15:00 To his mom and dad
Mom and dad… wherever you are…. Where are you? They should be here somewhere. Well, perhaps its better I can’t look at you straight in the eye. Thanks for giving us all we needed to help us pursue our dreams. For giving us our freedom to choose. And mom I know at first you didn’t like the idea, you wanted a son who was a doctor, a lawyer or whatever, but you gave us the freedom to choose. Dad, you being a huge fan of basketball, I hope you’re hearing this… you never interfered in anything with my teammates or my coaches, with my teams. But I always felt you next to me, by my side, rooting me on, and I appreciate it. It means more to me than any advice given. To you three (pointing to his 3 sons) yes you three. I don’t know if you know anything that is going on here. Bo (sorry I couldn’t catch the name properly) is more asleep than anything. The truth is I don’t know if you will understand anything that goes on here, I just want you to know that I am not sad. I am very happy. It is something very special that is going on here today. And if at times I may cry, it is of happiness. And that everything your mother and I do, is for your benefit. I tell you every day and I will continue to tell you even if you’re 28 or 29, but I love you more than anything in the world. And now (towards his wife) well the I would have to spend 2 or 3 hours just to appreciate everything you have done. But I will choose a pair of things. I want to say thanks, for putting up with my obsessions for twenty-some years. That the siesta had to be at a certain time, that the silence has to be total, that the food has to be this, that today I cant go out because im tired, that tomorrow I play, but that I cant tomorrow. Thank you for helping me to make all of this much easier and so that all I have to do is play. Thank you for sacrificing many summers that would have been our time, our family time spending on a beach, realaxing… for letting me spend that time playing with the guys in London, Japan, China or wherever it might be. For you being proud of me being a part of them. Thank you because I know that I stole a lot of time from you. Thank you for your company, thank you for your friendship, for your unconditional love, for making me who I am. Thanks for putting me and our kids as a priority. I will be forever in debt to you. But on a bright side I have 40 to 50 years ahead in which I can repay you and I will do whatever is in my power to do it.
Iron-avenger 1985 thank you for this!!!
Iron-avenger 1985 thank you for this
Thnx bro
Thank you man!
That was beautiful..
The euro step god and the greatest 6th man ever. Because of his sacrifices for he's won 4 rings and has been honored by the spurs getting his jersey retired. Future Hall of famer and thank you manu for many great memories
Don’t forget about his passing. The guy made plays for days!!!
Dont forget Toni Kukoc, hes super star in european league before joining the bulls...Manu and Kukoc are one of the greatest 6th man player outside USA..
Better than harden
Flop God as well 😜 the king of flop,.. 🙄
@@urbanhkpunx i'm sure you were referring to harden, right?
Even in his speech he did not even dared to appreciate his greatness - a true player of a team sport. I hope the new generation has this mentality.
This new generation has to deal with old timers still looking for glory running here there and every where. This EGO Basketball leaves a lot to be desired. Super Stars teaming up. No satisfied with all of the accomplishments already gained. These young players had respect but it’s dwindling. “35” plus. Done. True Champions move on “Like Kidd” Coach. So much to give 🏀🏀🏀🏀
Argentina captain and the one and only who win against USA team
Against USA captain Tim Duncan.....hehehe
I think his gold medal is the only Olympic medal to count as a accomplishment among the nba players
Serbia also beat USA in 2002 world championship. But, Manu's victory over USA has more meaning, because the Olympics are more important. The hero of my childhood, thank you for everything, Manu!
Skills & Greatness sorted in reference, Manu is my top 3 SG in the histiry of NBA. Behind MJ and Kobe, with more clutchness than Wade, had more impact to his team than Ray Ray, more of a complete package than Reggie, the Man's just a Winner & Argentina's legend!!!
... to downgraded his greatness to a "best 6th man ever" is a insult to basketball the sport itself.
@@玉重色 Manu was good but don't ever compare him to wade. Wade is way more impactful of a player and is greater and better then manu.
You can really tell that this man truly appreciates everything and everybody in his life. He's 1st class.
Even if you werent a fan of the Spurs as a basketball fan you still appreciate and respect the Spurs because they play basketball the right way as a team that sacrifices for the win. Manu, Tony, and Tim were part of a great era in the NBA that made the Spurs org great.
oMyGunny facts
not really I don'tt respect them
They pissed me off beating my suns every time lol but man these three are real legends
you are right bro!
Was David Robinson ever play with Manu & Tony? I forgot..
im not crying im not crying im not crying
Ahhhhh GAAAY!
You're crying bro. Lol
Por que Manu
Yes youre crying. But im not, its just the reflection of the light. 😪
man. he talking about his wife and kids. that guy knows whats really important
Yeah but any translations for those😂😂😂
@@kevinliu7780 ok here are my two cents... Basically he said to His kids that Maybe they didnt understand What that ceremony was AND to his wife that he was so thankful because of her eternal support AND not even in 50 years that Maybe he'll live Will he enough to thank her. Sorry if there are translation mistakes.
Family Game Adicto well thanks very much for that 🙏🙏🙏
@@kevinliu7780glad it served you. Look the first comment someone did a full english translation.
I don’t know how he kept it together because I could feel how emotional he got in parts there. His thanking his kids, wife and parents got to me, not gonna lie. This man deserves whatever he wants to do with the rest of his life. I can’t wait until the Hall of Fame speech. Gracias, Manu por todo.
Man... What to say... I cried then and i had to hold back tears right now... Thanks Manu. You are and amazing human being. 🏆
No need to say sorry for changing language. San Antonio can keep up with your spanish. Gracias welito! It was a great run.
No te preocupes man puedo entender ambos idiomas.
Cavaliers fan here but still a lot of respect for this guy. Class personified in this speach. Cheers. And gracias manu.
manu changed the nba, euro step, 6th-man, hustle plays, passing skills, lots of memorable hustle plays, and hes also a decent humble person thank you manu
Dont forget hustle plays
Did you also mention Hustle plays?
El Contusione
He is just holding his feelings.. He wants to cry in happiness...
Man, the tears started flowing watching this, such a selfless speech, truly grateful for his time playing professional basketball. #goSpursNation
need more of these type of athletes. humble and down to earth
Americans don't raise them like this. Our culture is to be braggadocious and egocentric
Absolutely. Basketball in an ERA that cannot be replaced or touched. This new EGO Ball leaves a lot to be desired.✅
0:58 He did a Euro step for the last time
😂😂😂
Yes and a spin move
Man who made me fall in love with Basketball game and become a Spur...Tears in my eyes...
My second Team. Love the POP TOO ❤✅❤️😊
Manu the goat, always in my heart
To be so loved is complete. Family. Team. Country. Bless Manu and all he loves ❤️❤️🏀🏀✅
This guy can't lie. In his speech there's nothing but truth. A heart of a lion. Nothing is fake. That clinching fist when talking about the golden generation got me, and the words to her wife and his sons. Damn. Just like when he was playing: he's the real deal, and the most winner of all.
He plays the game in ways no one thought of before and actually made it work at the highest level
One of the most respected and unique NBA players. There will never be another Manu.
With Out A Doubt. His play in the Olympics Beautiful 🏀✅🏀🏀🏀💕
One my heroes growning up as a kid. The most creative, exciting, fundamentally sound basketball players to have ever played the game. 1st ballot hall of famer no question.
He the last of my era great player and a future hall of famer.
Lord of the Euro Step....Hall of Fame...Top 20 in my list. MANU!!!
At least top 12 all time. If you had to make a super team to compete in a ultimate winner takes all best of 7 championship, wouldn't you at the very least have to pick him as the 12th man? The man was clutch as fk on both ends of the floor. Man......i miss him 😭😭
Absolute true champion!! you sir have given us the gift of witnessing greatness, not only to Spurs fans or NBA fans but to sports fans. What a pleasure to have been a fan of the NBA during your tenure, Manuuuuuu!!!! well done sir!
Pride, honor, dignity! What a lot of these nba player today lack!
I'm going to leave it at 20 for Ginobili cause even though he was a spurs and I'm Lakers fan much respect
Don't include pride they are not lacking pride they have too much pride on themselves I mean lots of them
That man is so amazing. Thebig 3 with tp and Tim was just... there's no word to describe it. Great Era, thanks for everything. When tp will retire, they'll be forever, the 3 of them, together in the AT&T center
I like the fact that Manu's kids are being themselves.... it's truly boring to them hahahhahaha, they will find out how meaningful it is after they grow up!
Nicely said!!! "Facts".
Taiwan fans here +1簽到
Haha yeah. He's just Dad to them
Speeches were quite long, they probably had to sit through 2-3 hours of this, that's quite a lot.
They need good old slap to the face.
A true sportsman and a perfect fit to the spurs. He simply played the game and stayed humble. This is greatness
Thank you Manu for the memories I shared with my family growing up watching the Spurs play. I remember the battles against the Lakers more than anything. How fearless does someone have to be to go right down the lane and dunk on Shaq. Manu had the heart of a lion. I remember him dunking again in the finals in 2014 against the Heat. I jumped like I did back in grade school. To me, it brings tears to my eyes for a much more personal reason. It is this fearless nature that I have only ever seen in my dad. He taught me to compete and win in sports without ever saying a word. He is a leader by example just like Manu. Follow my lead. Gracias Manu por todo lo que haz hecho en este deporte. Haz ganado en la cancha pero lo mas importante es la forma de que tu vives con humildad y respeto.
Not just Lakers. Every team knew. MANU. PERIOD ✅🏀✅
“That’s a bad boy “ -Kobe Bryant
As a Suns fan, I hated the Spurs for always booting us outta the Playoffs but damn this man has done so much for the game that I will still stand up and clap my hands for an old foe. Congrats to the Spurs organization.
Yes, I recall a couple of very rough and controversial playoffs with the Suns. Really nice of you to join in and celebrate Manu.
@@mediamannaman I will always remember Robert Horry and his dirty shot on Steve Nash
Nicholas Tan - ... which caused Stoudemire to leave the bench to see if he was alright. Stoudemire gets a 1-game suspension and the rest is history. Suns were scary good that year, it was a very close series, and that suspension was a difference maker. Horry could have fouled him without the hard hip check. Not good sportsmanship.
Gracias idol❤ Die hard fan of San Antonio Spurs!!💯 Manu Ginobili is one of my favourite pLayer of all time..
Much love from Toronto Canada. True legend. Felt a part of my child hood dying here after CB4's ceremony also. Great memories. Thanks Manu. Best euro step ever.
The man who dunked on Bosh viciously in the finals. I bet that's one heck of a memory?
@@ay3201 Yeah it is you clown. Basketball fans enjoy all players & talent. Touch grass weirdo
A Knick fan. And without a Doubt Manu. Love ❤️ watching him and his SPURS play🏀🏀🏀🏀✅
It’s a shame that people gave this video thumbs down.
I watched this whole thing... literally an hr && a half... it was awesome coming from a Houston Fan!
Big Dawgg Same
Same Houston Fan. That Spur team was just LEGEND, both on court and off court.
Next to Tim Duncan, my favorite Spurs player. I remember his first year----raw talent. I will always remember his full court slam dunk against the Heat that propelled the Spurs to the championship after that heartbreaking loss at Miami the year before. Gracias Manu!!!
One of my favorite players of all time just because of his will and skills to win 💯💯
i swear there was nothing compared to how the nba was back in the day till now. Im bout to be 30 this year an see tim,parker,manu brings memories when they where dangerous back in day when they were healthy. Pop is the greatest coach of all time when he retires
From a Dallas Mavs fan, thank you Manu!
What a humble man, this is greatness.
My fave guy of my team. Manu simply one of a kind.
The greatest Latino player of all time....so far:) Thank you Manu!!!!!
GINOBILI VS BRYANT WAS AN EPIC BATTLE FROM THE 2000s.
Always been a fan, from long haired ginobili to bald one hahaha Congratulations!
?????????ㅁㅊㅆㄲ
Real fan right here😂✊
respect to Lou Williams and other sixth man of the year but definitely Manu is the greatest sixth man of the year. .a great player inside and out. .his basketball I.Q is just insane he knows everything about basketball and how to play it. .his not just a SPURS LEGEND but an NBA LEGEND.
Manu. Parker. Duncan. Fabulous. “3”. Check Goggle ✅✅✅. Eventually a “6”✅✅✅
I was at this game, it was sad to say goodbye to such a legend. Gracias Manu!

True team player. Puts winning above individual stats. Won everywhere he played.
I didn't understand the spanish parts, but I felt it. Love you, Manu 🐐🐐🐐
Hispanic people didnʼt u understand the English part either just enjoy the moment
Damn been watching Manu since he came into the league he was a breath of fresh air, time does surely passes us by unexpectedly.
Thank you Manu Ginobili for everything you give us Spurs fans and NBA fans as well. The greatest player for that Eurostep that you do so well and playing the 6th man part too. It was good coming back to San Antonio to the AT&T canter and watch you play live in 2016, 2017 thanks for those memories that I will have on me I’m in tears right now but I’m glad that you are happy with your family too congratulations to you. Thanks Manu Ginobili #20🏆🏆🏆🏆🏅🥇🌎🏀🇦🇷🍾🎉🎊👍🙌👏🤘✌️🤣😂🙂😃😁😃
Could have been the superstar of the other 29 teams in his time. Yet, he chose to be loyal with SAS. In return, SAS had been loyal to him as well. Legendary career to the best All Star 6th man ever. Congrats Manu.
Not could have IS A SUPER STAR.
Nothing but love and mad respect man 👍👍 🐐 🏀 🔥. You changed the style and you'll always be a pioneer and a Champ.
playing or making a speech he is all over the court.. 😊 #GraciasManu!
We love you Manu!!! Thank you for all the memories 🔥
I wish Charles Barkley was in San Antonio this retirement..
good ol women
Ay Manu....cómo me hiciste llorar...! Creo que no he visto un discurso así, jamás. Se nota que te enseñaron bien en tu casa y que tenés una familia increíble. No todo puede ser casualidad, aunque tengas la humildad de reconocer que fuiste afortunado. Para mí, sos el deportista argentino más grande que tuvo nuestro país. Pero...como bien escribieron por ahí, para las leyendas, no hay ranking. Gracias por regalarme tantas sonrisas !
What a man, what a career, and never forgets his motherland, family, and friends. A true man. See you in Springfield!
Obi Wan Ginobili - The force will always be with you.
Sos grande loco, estaba esperando toda la noche por verte y por de alguna manera estar con vos. Thank you Manu for giving us all the memories you gave us. GRACIAS MANUUUUU!!!!

Muchas gracias por tu entrega, disfrutamos de todas tus hazañas siendo fiel a un equipo, eso no se ve todos los días en la NBA...
Dang, he's retired already.. it feels like yesterday when I saw young haired Manu aggressively attacking the rim..
Thank You Manu! Loved seeing you bring the city here to life :) Take care of yourself brother!
MANU got millions of his hardcore fan in China. They also gave him a Chinese nickname, which literal meaning is 'The Demon Blade'. Bye legend.
You are the best left hand player! Respect !
Excelente MANU! siempre tendrás en memoria de cada argentino las millones de alegrías que nos has regalado con la celeste y blanca y con la negra y blanca.
ETERNAMENTE AGRADECIDO POR LAS PALABRAS QUE NOS ENVIASTE!
