Manu wishes he could hire the kind of goons Harden can. Manu has never even touched the kinds of fat asses James has.
Not a dirty play. Useless play to "draw" the foul, but surely not intending to step into Brooks landing space, as his FOOT doesn´t even move. He moves his hip to try contact in the air. Pat on Westbrook is like a murder attempt comparing to this. Amazing player & protagonist of 2004 Olympic Gold Medal over USA.
naw man... I gotta agree with @HP3 manu was just setting up to try to draw the charge... naw... no dirty play - jus AB out of control... and i got no love for the Spurs but it is what it is...
I can’t even hate, I’ve always liked Manu even tho he’s on the Spurs...very creative player I’ll admit to watching his highlights and trying to copy some of the stuff he does
Aside from being a flop artist, he was a pretty solid dude - he plays reckless at times but he never has done anything that I would construe as a "dirty play" - taking charges(and embellishing them like a soccer player) is about the most offensive part of his game. He was a basketball wizard - truly one of the greats and we owe him praise for the craftiness that influenced James Harden's game to become one of the best one on one players of all time.
lmao! ru serious, man? if harden's head snaps back its cause Manu stuffed his shot into his head - cause that was all ball.... this is why its hard to take some folks seriously... lol
Manu in his Prime would be more agile but less of a scorer/distributor. But boy, was he CLUTCH in the playoffs. Harden is just one Quarter a modern version of Manu.
