Even Manu looking away in disgust at this question

is it disgust because it's top 10? or do you think he really garbage like that.

he's definitely on the cusp.

We talking actual 2 guards too.

Off the top:

Kobe
Wade
Iceman
Jordan
Reggie
Ray
Clyde
Pistol Pete
The Logo
Havlicek
Iverson
Black Jesus


That's just 12

Ginobili is one of my favorites, tho

this is probably the most respectable list posted.


I think he's right probably next straight after this 12 and you can argue AI aint an SG like that..

I cant take Ray Allen or Reggie Miller over Manu. Same with Mitch. Well Ray is debatable

I agree with this. I think the only thing Ray Reggie and Mitch got over Manu is minutes played. Give manu their minutes and he gives you their production...

I also think Manu is a FAR better passer than all three of these dudes combined...

I guess it depends on how you view the top 10...

If you talking NBA only...and you talking stats...I can see how you leave him out...dude spent some seasons not playing enough minutes to even be nominated for the 6th man award...

You talking about winning...the list of SG with 4 titles is very short...you talking about coming up big in big moments...been their done that...you talking about his international career...dude is easily the most decorated international player of ALL TIME...dude has a gold medal and has won a title in every league he has ever played in...

So if we talking about the regular season...I can see putting 10 other two guards on the floor in front of him...

But the money season? The 16 game season...nope...only guys getting major minutes at the two over him are Jordan and Kobe...everyone else is playing a MAX of 24 minutes cause Manu is playing the other 24

LOL at some of these list...AI spent 90% of his career playing point and now we putting him in front of Gigoatli at the 2:mjlol:

I was going to type a whole essay but you hit every point I was going to make :salute:

If we are talking skill and skill alone. I'd say yeah he's a top 10. But production/accolades being added and he gets bounced out the top 10 but still a top 15-20 guy. If he had more minutes he would have done more than he already has. Too lazy to make a list.

If he would've started more or got more minutes in his career he'd be top 10 easily. Others got better stats but they ain't fukking with a healthy, prime Ginobili.


He's better than Reggie Miller, Ray Allen, Mitch Richmond, and Clyde Drexler. People mentioning dudes like Havlicek and Walt Frazier and they ain't even two guards.

I was only fukking with you with that post, but nah I don't think he's a top 10 SG, he's more in the range of 10-20. He's had an incredible career, just hasn't reached the individual heights that would warrant putting him in the top 10.

The "if he would have started more or got more minutes" argument is silly as hell.
i could say if he started more and got more minutes it would have cut into his longetivity and he would've had more injuries.
If he played more minutes in the nba then he wouldn't have been as successful during the olympic run.
shyt's completely silly to act like he'd just play much more minutes and still have the same career trajectory but greater.
