MANU GIFLOPILI

We've all seen these slow-motion NBA commercials with words of wisdom at the end. Usually, they don't really do much for us, but Manu Ginobili's commercial really struck a nerve (especially since it is against the Pistons).

This video is about not accepting failure, but what exactly is Manu failing at: drawing the foul?

Look at how far he extends his off hand into Ben Wallace's chest. And then does his classic "I just broke my neck" move with his head. Notice that when the ball bounces out of bounds off Manu's foot, he doesn't even try to argue for a foul.

Confucius must be furious right now.

Wouldn't a better slogan have been: "This isn't futbol..... bitch" ???


The flop stops here....
