    Where's the highlight here? David West moves slower than a statue.

    He is a lin fan as well with a axe to grind against harden. It’s downright pathetic

    Such a dirty play from a very dirty player.

    That was an extremely reckless if not dirty play. Brooks was attempting a desperation half court shot and was in the air vulnerable. Just not a good play to undercut him and severely injure him.

    Everyone makes some bad plays in their careers though. Manu had a great career and deserves to be in the HOF obviously.

    Spurs Manure. Don't care for his crying or leaving the game.

    You do realize that Harden snaps his head back that far quite often on perceived contact to ANY part of his body right? It's a big reason why a lot of basketball fans that do watch Harden and the Rockets despise him. I personally love it myself, but it is something he does.

    The greatest 6th man, swing guard I have ever seen play.

    I remember him going up against prime rapist Kobe and holding his own.

    How many double flopping was Manu involved in? It seems every one of those hilarious moments has him in it.

    If you can't see how amazing Ginobili was as a player, might I suggest you actually watch some of his games instead of reading stat lines(half of which were popularity votes) - does it get any more lazy than judging a player by the stat line on his nba.com profile page? I've watched basketball my whole life and Ginobili was one of the most exciting players I have ever seen - second only to Bird in making impossible **** happen. He was always there hitting a clutch shot, making a key defensive play when it really mattered, finishing an impossible layup and just generally thriving in the messiest most chaotic high stakes situations. That guy is true legend who would have been had a MUCH gaudier stat line playing in a different city.

    The point is that it was clear Brooks was about to leave his feet for a shot and Manu STILL stepped in front of him, giving Aaron almost nowhere to safely land. To me, it can be argued quite convincingly that this was, in fact, a dirty play. I was also at this game and watched it live. ;)

    he wanted to take a charge. taking charges doesn't involve giving players a "safe landing"

    now if we're talking about a deliberate undercut, then that's a different story
