The best play in Manu Ginobili’s career

It took three-and-a-half weeks and 11 rounds of voting, and now you the fans have finally crowned the champion of The MANU Tournament and determined Manu Ginobili’s greatest play of all time! The result shouldn’t be so surprising. Winning the Finals by a result of 62% to 38% was the Dunk on Chris Bosh, a.k.a. The Redemption Dunk.

Just like the entire 2014 championship, this play was the embodiment of redeeming the horror that was 2013. Besides an amazing Game 5 performance that had the Spurs on the cusp of winning their fifth championship, Ginobili had an otherwise pretty poor showing in the 2013 Finals against the same Miami Heat squad and was one of several players with mistakes in the waning moments of Game 6 that cost the Spurs a late 5-point lead — the staff at the American Airlines Arena were already setting up to present the trophy — and ultimately a championship.
