Is anyone still sleeping on Manu?
Dude is so cot damn crafty and smooth w/ the ball, had Harden and Sefalosha on skates ALL NIGHT LONG.
The guy is a true threat on every single spot on the floor, not too many players you can say that about.

24 points and that was his season high. Not that great.

My bad cuzzo.
I'm talking about this thread I made over a month ago that stirred up quite the debate (here's the OP from that thread):
[url=http://www.insidehoops.com/forum/showthread.php?t=260216]Why Is Manu So Underrated?[/url]
Just curious...
Manu Ginobili is a 3x NBA Champion (so far), has 1 Olympic Gold Medal, 2 FIBA Gold Medals, was the Italian League & Euroleague Finals MVP, a 2x NBA All Star ('05&'11), and the 2008 NBA Sixth Man of The Year.
So why in the world is he NEVER considered to be not only one of, IF NOT THE 2ND BEST SG OF HIS ERA, but routinely isn't even considered one of the TOP BEST SG's in the NBA?
You could make his health a major reason why but in comparison:
[B][U]Games Played:[/U][/B]
Manu Ginobili ('02-now): 664
Dwyane Wade ('03-now):594
70 games is the difference (which is nearly an NBA season which is exactly how much longer Manu has been in the NBA over Dwyane Wade).
And this is not a knock on Wade but a simple fact, Wade has 1 NBA Championship (so far), 1 Olympic Gold Medal (so far), 1 NBA Finals MVP, 8x NBA All Star but is routinely ranked as the 2nd best SG of his era (behind Kobe) and usually 3-5 All Time ranking behind Jordan, Kobe, West, and Drexler.
Speaking of which, here's a comparison of Ginobili's stats against those SG's who are routinely ranked higher than him:

Clyde Drexler: [url=http://www.basketball-reference.com/players/d/drexlcl01.html]Stats[/url]
As you can see, he has won more NBA titles (3) than each of the above (1) and his numbers are VERY COMPARABLE even though he NEVER put up more than 13 FG's/ game during the regular season while his Playoffs/ Finals numbers hold there own against these guys EVEN THOUGH HE WAS NEVER THE 1ST OPTION ON HIS TEAM which directly affects his PPG totals (as well as others) which most will use as a crutch to claim he wasn't as good as the other SG's.
How come Manu Ginobili is not as highly ranked as other SG's, presently or all time?
He is so underrated...smooth lefty, great handles, crafty, excellent shooter, innovator of the "Euro-step", great finisher, and more clutch than Drexler ever was while arguably just as or even more clutch than D Wade and Jerry West.
There is a case to be made that he in fact is the 3rd best SG of All Time or at least Top 5 All Time.
