SAN ANTONIO -- Whats the matter with Manu? Manu Ginobili isnt scoring. Custom Baltimore Ravens Jerseys . His game is now careless instead of famously creative. In these NBA Finals, where LeBron James and Dwyane Wade just delivered a forceful reminder in Game 4 about stars deciding this series, the San Antonio Spurs are still waiting on one of their biggest. The impatience is starting to show. "Hes having a tough playoffs, and hasnt really found a rhythm or found his game yet," Spurs coach Gregg Popovich said Friday. "I think that hes obviously not as confident as usual, and he knows full well he hasnt performed the way he would like and the way hes used to. But its simplistic to say, What are we going to do to get him going?" Simplistic, maybe. But their prospects of winning a fifth title may hinge on just that. Ginobili scored five points in 26 minutes in a 109-93 loss Thursday night, knotting the series heading into San Antonios final home game Sunday. Hes shooting just 34 per cent against the Heat and is averaging 7.5 points, down from his 11.8 scoring average during the season. Overall, Ginobili has shot 38 per cent in the playoffs, a career worst. Only one of his last 11 tries from behind the 3-point line has connected. It got so bad in Game 4 that even the Baseline Bums, a boisterous section of Spurs die-hards in the AT&T Center where the wily Ginobili is most beloved, yelled for the Argentine to quit jacking up shots. Ginobili seems to be getting fed up, too. He looked bothered by questions about his persistent struggles after shooting 1 for 5 on Thursday night and tying his third-lowest scoring game in 21 career Finals appearances. The other time he managed just five points in the Finals? Game 2 in this same series. "Its not that Ive scored 30 a game this year," Ginobili said. "Im surprised. I wish I could score more. But its not happening. I got to try to do other stuff. Ive got to move the ball. If the shot is not falling, Ive got to be sharp feeding the bigs and finding the shooters. I dont have to force the issue. Thats not what I do. Thats not what Im asked to do." Putting a finger on what Ginobili does has always been tough to define - a quality that has made him one of the NBAs most entertaining players the last 11 years. At his most dazzling hes a fearless attacker, game-winning marksman, uncanny improviser and a master of falling-down shots that defy belief. In Game 1, Ginobili perfectly bounce passed to Tony Parker between the legs of Miamis Norris Cole - while Cole had his back turned and running. The brilliant delivery was vintage Ginobili, but his performance the rest of this series has been otherwise forgettable. Heat coach Erik Spoelstra on Friday downplayed the effect the Heat defence has had on Ginobili, saying that it occasionally has come down to him missing some shots he normally makes. But Ginobilis game has never been predicated on jump shots, and Spoelstra and the Heat are wary of him turning it on. "Weve always looked at him very similar to our guy, to Dwyane," Spoelstra said. "And what makes him probably most dangerous is the unpredictability, his ability to be aggressive and do things on the court that arent necessarily scripted. Thats where hes most dangerous. Ginobili turns 36 in July. He will be a free agent this summer and has said hes not ready to retire. Three years ago, when Ginobili was playing at the end of his last contract and plagued by injuries, Popovich and Spurs general manager R.C. Buford didnt seal a new deal until Ginobili ripped through an exceptional two months late in 2010 that showed he still had it. Now two wins from a championship, the Spurs need Ginobili to prove that again. "Hes going to get himself going or he wont," Popovich said. "He knows that hes got to play better for us to be successful." Custom Minnesota Vikings Jerseys . -- Most satisfying to Russ Smith about No. Custom Miami Dolphins Jerseys .ca!
