    I think It's fair to say he deserves it.

    Manu is defintely entitled to a break now. Throughout the year, he has been under pressure to perform through Basketball whether it be for the Spurs in a tense playoff series or Argentina with his country's pride on the line. He is human, and deserves to have a break from Basketball to relax, which he doesn't get much opportunity to do.
