ginobili is not physically as strong as other players in the NBA, but he is really smart at making the decisions on the court. i am not a fan of the Spurs, but Ginobili is definitely one of my fav players
Ginobili lose that ball because of a shitty pass from Mc Dyess and a good defense from the Nuggets; but then... he made these two plays. Instead of getting whiny, nervous or losing his mind, he calmly went to the bench. He knows better: his mind is strong, fearless. Ecuanimity is a winner mentality. Also, if you watch closer in that circus shot, he clearly got fouled by Afflalo, the guy touches his right arm.
i honestly don't get what you're looking at, his feet weren't moving at all when the foul was drawn and he was clearly outside of the restricted area. just because it was on denvers home court doesn't mean that it wasn't a charge
refs swallowed their whistle when JR smith fouled Ginobili from behind while he was in the process of receiving the ball on the inbound play. The ball got loose and because of that non-call, the Nuggets got the lead. It was only right for the refs to at least call that clear charge because the Denver lead should't have happened anyway.
I hate floppers. Still, he's got some balls, stepping in to get ran over by 250 lbs of freight train Carmelo. And hitting that GW layup was not easy. Ditto for Melo! I think it wasn't a clear off.foul and it could've gone either way. Too bad it went the Spurs way... This my have been a nail in the coffin for Melo in Denver, he is now Jersey Bound.
its not that his feet were or werent moving. as im led to believe, as well as being a ref previously, you feet need to be set. and by set it means that your WHOLE foot is planted on the ground. only his toes were on the ground and his heels were off. oh and im not a denver fan :D so i dont really care if its their court.
Mexico defeated for the first time the Dream Team? Mexico won the gold medal at the Athens 2004 Olympic Games? i dont think so ... Emanuel Ginobili is ARGENTINE ... And if you do not already know, has four championship rings. Hope that helps with the confusion. See u gringo !!!
Ale Mercado that’s what Duncan once said in MAnus jersey retirement.. qouting: Manu sees things nobody does and Manu sees things on the court ahead of anybody
0:14 Don't you think that was clearly an offensive foul? He didn't even have the ball in his hands. Anyways, this was just as Duncan said, unbelievable. Very proud of a guy who is from my own country, playing in the NBA. Orgullo argentino, Manu.
that is because Manu never got to fully expose his talent on the court ...EVER..!! he never carried the Spurs on his back, could if he wanted to but the system is what got him the 3 championships, he is happy to come off the bench for the betterment of the team, while Kobe for a long time did it himself, he always had the ball in offense and the teams offense depended on him. Manu is a phenomenal athlete and a sacrificial player. he could have been as great as Kobe or Lebron as a team carrier
He may not BE MJ. But he has attributes like MJ. Badass ball handling. Badass shooting. FUCKIN AWESOME passing. He's clutch. He's not MJ but he sure looks like one. But it's all good cause no one recognizes the Spurs for anything. All anyone care about outside of the Spurs is finesse. And that shit is fucking whack. Doesn't win games. Just looks nice.
lol like I said before , he could if he wanted to, but you cant be a team carrier if you play for the Spurs. The Spurs always stick to plays and the whole team aids in its execution, no one man army style playing. Everybody in the Spurs team carries the team, even the bench players
like I said above, the Spurs don't rely on an individual player's talent to carry them through, they play a smart,efficient and calculated brand of basketball. Because of this Manu never got to show his full potential to the world, but he doesnt complain, he even agrees to come off the bench for the team when he is one of the Big 3. Kobe on the other hand was the key player in every game he ever played for LA, he had so many chances to show his potential while Manu never did. get my point jr.?
Vladi48mir what more if Ginobili palys on the other NBA team that may abuse his full potential for the benefit if the team not for the sake of Manu’s health because he is injury prone tyoe of player because of competitive spirit
please more ginobili. great defense, it was clearly a foul on carmelo. actually i think ginobili took a hard charge and did no flop. carmelo its pretty heavy
no you were right he is, but he plays for the Spurs and the Spurs dont entirely depend on the talent of the players to carry them, they depend on their system of execution. If Manu had been on a mediocre team and took over as the star player he would be the Kobe Bryant of his time but only with better defense and all round game
Yes.....one of the best players of the world....and he (GINOBILI) has won almoust everything!.... 3 NBA titles with SPURS! Sub-Champion of the world with ARGENTINA in Indianapolis 2002! WON THE GOLD MEDAL WITH ARGENTINA IN ATENAS 2004. WON THE BRONCE MEDAL WITH ARGENTINA IN PEKING 2008..... 2 times He was the "MVP" in europe when he played in Kinder Bolonia, 2001 and in 2002! "MVP" of the olympics games in Atenas 2004!
if you count the 4.2 seconds left to finish the game, Manu state all that time into the Paint Zone. 3 seconds rule should not exist and this is a big Play to demonstrate that.
that is called a blocking foul. you cant just run in front of a player milliseconds before he gets to the hoop. this is why the nba is not actually basketball anymore, its something else, they call the charge way to much. you rarely see blocking fouls anymore
It clearly was a charge the blocking is called if melo would be on his just jumping or in the air when manu come to the line and melo hadnt leaved his other foot for the last step yet. So clear charge no arquement needed.
yeah its ridiculous. they over call the charge now way too much. its unbelievable. players can just run in front of people, or even just stop in their tracks as they're defending a players whos moving forward with the ball. how the hell is a player supposed to drive to the basket today. what you get is more game delays, more free throws, and more control to the refs, which is probably the sole reason for this. ifthey didnt call the charge all the time, they wouldnt be able to control games
thomas lewis if that was your opinion then why Manu always avoids the charge? it means they git to do somthing like Manu does to avoid charge! master the eurostep..🤨
r u serious? blocking fouls are called in every game still. if charges werent called like that youd have people taking off from outside the paint trying to dunk =="
dude that was a blocking foul. the whole of having a charge rule is so that players can't just barrel through a defensive players positions, not to allow the defense to run into front of a player milliseconds before he gets to the hoop. this is why there is a rule called blocking. blocking is obstructing a players lane by running in front of him, charges never used to be called like this and the game of basketball is almost ruined now. its almost impossible to drive to the basket now
actually by the time carmelo hits him, if you look closely both his feet are completely down. And im not a Spurs or Nuggets fan either so i also dont care
