Agreed , Manu won Olympic gold with Argentina, he won a Euroleague championship, and 4 NBA championships! What a career! He took his love of the game and infectious passion around the globe. Manu is truly an ambassador of sports.
I mean he was an easy first ballot hall of famer, gold medalist, 4 time champion, it’s not that he could’ve been Luka now it’s that he paved the way for Luka, he opened the way for all the “other” European players that teams would’ve doubted

People act like this was such a surprise, but most of that Argentina team went on to decent/good careers in the NBA. And ending it with an in-your-face alleyoop DUNK.
it wasn't a surprise at all. Two years before they proved that they could win, because they did it at the worlds against a US team that had Reggie Miller, Paul Pierce, Big Ben... They didn't win the title because they were outright robbed in the final, in a way that Joey Crawford wouldn't do. Not even with LeBron in the court. But the Gods of basketball had something even more special reserved to them.

Tim Duncan is the biggest reason why the Spurs still have the winningest record among all NBA teams since the turn of the century, even after years of horrible rebuilding year records. No, the results of a single international tournament do not provide a referendum on his career or stature as a basketball legend, nor a good argument.

Duncan, Lebron, Iverson, Wade, Marbury,Anthony,Stoudemire,Odem,Okafor,Jefferson,Marion And Boozer VS MANU Ginobili... Who wins????
Argentina had a great team. Don't undersell them
@@vaudou_ Was not my intention.. Manu is the 2nd Greatest Shooting Guard of all time in my opinion.. GOAT MJ is #1.
@@diffuser2459 I know a lot of people would disagree with you but I definitely understand what you mean. Manu is one of the best players of all time
Blame the stupid coach
@@diffuser2459 I hope you know kobe is a sg (btw manu is my favorite player of all time)
And they kick Manu out of the 75th NBA anniversary List? what a shame... Manu should definitely be on that list... ppl should watch this video lol
it’s top 75 nba not all of basketball
Lo siento but, he's not even top 💯, come on now😂
Even if Lebron played, Manu would have still annihilate em just like in the NBA.
Only LeBron could be held to such standards even as a teenager 😂 says a lot
Hater
lebron was a rookie
That starting line up said it all…Bron Wade n Melo on the bench is crazy.
@gunman9131 Yeah Lebron beat em in 2013.
That poster on marbury was the exclamation point!!! 😂
that was Richard jefferson
Manu could have been luka before luka if he played as a starter for most of his career with a different team
It's crazy how the Spurs are underrated it's almost like The NBA doesn't like the Spurs.
I mean he was an easy first ballot hall of famer, gold medalist, 4 time champion, it’s not that he could’ve been Luka now it’s that he paved the way for Luka, he opened the way for all the “other” European players that teams would’ve doubted

Big Heart Argentina!
This is real competitive basketball. Not like rigged NBA. Ginobili is the real GOAT 🐐
🏅🏅🏅🏆🏆🏆🏀
I’ve been saying that for years and people look at me like I lost my mind
People never say he is the GOAT because he is European or he was a spur. People who actually know basketball know that he should be in the GOAT talks.
@@TheMarksman0415 well he is not european for sure
@@TMthe33rd wait no way I said European lmao I meant international. Thanks for the correction.

Manu mágico para siempre !!
Jefferson really tried blocking that, gets dunked on …🙏🏾

Argentinian living in USA here. I loved this game but felt really bad about Tim Duncan.
This was history
people blame lebron for this loss, Man! HES A rookie playing less minutes , people forget there's AI and Tim duncan
The LeBron hate is limitless
Pick u apart with the passing wow
Walter Herrmann or Walter He-Man?
Owned Duncan
Who coached Team USA, Ronald McDonald?
Basically lol started Lamar Odom over LeBron
@@Bob-fj7lrLeBron was ass this game anyways
But ur right Larry brown is a terrible awful coach, this is well known

A good argument for those who say Duncan is over rated. As the undisputed leader of this team, he couldn't bring the Gold.

Duncan is only useful in Popp's System
@@rondoughhowell6442 What is your evidence of that? And exactly how does it support your claim?
Manu beat duncan
This US roster was horrible, 2 point guards and a bunch of slow low post players, where were the guards and shooters? Kobe, TMac, hell, Joe Johnson?
Well alot of the good players didn't want to play and Kobe had his trial
Paliza,

Manu beat duncan
