    You are aware that in Manu's rookie year, he averaged pretty much the same as what Rudy is.

    And Manu was older than Rudy is now.

    We are witnessing the difference between a well coached team and a not-so well coached team.

    Dude, come on, Manu Ginobli wasn't Manu Ginobli in his rookie season.

    Rudy has very clearly hit the rookie wall a little early, thanks to his hectic summer schedule. His energy is running out, and his aim is deteriorating as he needs to use more power to shoot the three.

    Let's get back to these comparisons in the Fall. Of 2011.

    Saying that Blake is murdering us would imply that he is doing something but he is not.

    We shouldn't resign Blake this summer. Let him go and promise him an assistant-coach job if he wants it, when he retires.

    I admit I am liking Batum a lot more... can see him as the SF of the future for sure.

    Yep, having a 20 year old rookie playing right now, an offensive waist land at the 5 spot and our best two players struggling big time (both who are in their 3rd year) has nothing to do with it.

    Manu has always had an aspect of his game where he takes it the basket. Rudy may have that skill too but we haven't seen it. Manu also plays/played better D. But I still like Rudy cuz he does little things like getting to an important rebound or loose ball and he can make some good passes.
