Tony Parker, Gregg Popovich & Tim Duncan Speeches: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/odOnY5qelsW5oKM.html

He was still doing euro steps during speech

I will do my best to translate his Spanish to English. 7:15 “To my family and friends form Argentina. You all might be thinking that you all did not have an influence in my career since the majority of my career was spent far from home… but being far from home I knew of your all’s efforts to watch my games, of sleeping at 3 or 4 in the morning knowing that your alarm for work would go off at 7am. I know some of you screamed insults at your television set, I know some of you would celebrate by jumping on the couches. All that got to me… and it pushed me a little bit more. And for that, thank you, to everyone who is over here, which you are a lot, and to everyone who is at home.” 11:05 to his National Team of Argentina “How beautiful it was to play with you all. What a pleasure. Knowing that in whatever court that we played in, we were going to be a group that was united. That we were going to watch each others backs. That at whatever place we were going to celebrate in, if we won, we were going to have a good time… but if we lost, we were going to have an even better time because we were going to do things that were invaluable. And that was going to strengthen our group, our bond. And therefor, for all that time, for all those friendships and all those experiences, Thank you so much, Fabricio, to everyone in the arena, and to all those back home.” 15:00 To his mom and dad Mom and dad… wherever you are…. Where are you? They should be here somewhere. Well, perhaps its better I can’t look at you straight in the eye. Thanks for giving us all we needed to help us pursue our dreams. For giving us our freedom to choose. And mom I know at first you didn’t like the idea, you wanted a son who was a doctor, a lawyer or whatever, but you gave us the freedom to choose. Dad, you being a huge fan of basketball, I hope you’re hearing this… you never interfered in anything with my teammates or my coaches, with my teams. But I always felt you next to me, by my side, rooting me on, and I appreciate it. It means more to me than any advice given. To you three (pointing to his 3 sons) yes you three. I don’t know if you know anything that is going on here. Bo (sorry I couldn’t catch the name properly) is more asleep than anything. The truth is I don’t know if you will understand anything that goes on here, I just want you to know that I am not sad. I am very happy. It is something very special that is going on here today. And if at times I may cry, it is of happiness. And that everything your mother and I do, is for your benefit. I tell you every day and I will continue to tell you even if you’re 28 or 29, but I love you more than anything in the world. And now (towards his wife) well the I would have to spend 2 or 3 hours just to appreciate everything you have done. But I will choose a pair of things. I want to say thanks, for putting up with my obsessions for twenty-some years. That the siesta had to be at a certain time, that the silence has to be total, that the food has to be this, that today I cant go out because im tired, that tomorrow I play, but that I cant tomorrow. Thank you for helping me to make all of this much easier and so that all I have to do is play. Thank you for sacrificing many summers that would have been our time, our family time spending on a beach, realaxing… for letting me spend that time playing with the guys in London, Japan, China or wherever it might be. For you being proud of me being a part of them. Thank you because I know that I stole a lot of time from you. Thank you for your company, thank you for your friendship, for your unconditional love, for making me who I am. Thanks for putting me and our kids as a priority. I will be forever in debt to you. But on a bright side I have 40 to 50 years ahead in which I can repay you and I will do whatever is in my power to do it.

The euro step god and the greatest 6th man ever. Because of his sacrifices for he's won 4 rings and has been honored by the spurs getting his jersey retired. Future Hall of famer and thank you manu for many great memories

Even in his speech he did not even dared to appreciate his greatness - a true player of a team sport. I hope the new generation has this mentality.

Argentina captain and the one and only who win against USA team

You can really tell that this man truly appreciates everything and everybody in his life. He's 1st class.

Even if you werent a fan of the Spurs as a basketball fan you still appreciate and respect the Spurs because they play basketball the right way as a team that sacrifices for the win. Manu, Tony, and Tim were part of a great era in the NBA that made the Spurs org great.

man. he talking about his wife and kids. that guy knows whats really important

Cavaliers fan here but still a lot of respect for this guy. Class personified in this speach. Cheers. And gracias manu.

0:58 He did a Euro step for the last time

need more of these type of athletes. humble and down to earth

im not crying im not crying im not crying

I don’t know how he kept it together because I could feel how emotional he got in parts there. His thanking his kids, wife and parents got to me, not gonna lie. This man deserves whatever he wants to do with the rest of his life. I can’t wait until the Hall of Fame speech. Gracias, Manu por todo.

He is just holding his feelings.. He wants to cry in happiness...

Man, the tears started flowing watching this, such a selfless speech, truly grateful for his time playing professional basketball. #goSpursNation

This guy can't lie. In his speech there's nothing but truth. A heart of a lion. Nothing is fake. That clinching fist when talking about the golden generation got me, and the words to her wife and his sons. Damn. Just like when he was playing: he's the real deal, and the most winner of all.

Man who made me fall in love with Basketball game and become a Spur...Tears in my eyes...

“That’s a bad boy “ -Kobe Bryant

manu changed the nba, euro step, 6th-man, hustle plays, passing skills, lots of memorable hustle plays, and hes also a decent humble person thank you manu

One of the most respected and unique NBA players. There will never be another Manu.

He plays the game in ways no one thought of before and actually made it work at the highest level

No need to say sorry for changing language. San Antonio can keep up with your spanish. Gracias welito! It was a great run.

Manu the goat, always in my heart

One my heroes growning up as a kid. The most creative, exciting, fundamentally sound basketball players to have ever played the game. 1st ballot hall of famer no question.

Pride, honor, dignity! What a lot of these nba player today lack!

I like the fact that Manu's kids are being themselves.... it's truly boring to them hahahhahaha, they will find out how meaningful it is after they grow up!

Absolute true champion!! you sir have given us the gift of witnessing greatness, not only to Spurs fans or NBA fans but to sports fans. What a pleasure to have been a fan of the NBA during your tenure, Manuuuuuu!!!! well done sir!

Lord of the Euro Step....Hall of Fame...Top 20 in my list. MANU!!!

Man... What to say... I cried then and i had to hold back tears right now... Thanks Manu. You are and amazing human being. 🏆

A true sportsman and a perfect fit to the spurs. He simply played the game and stayed humble. This is greatness

He the last of my era great player and a future hall of famer.

That man is so amazing. Thebig 3 with tp and Tim was just... there's no word to describe it. Great Era, thanks for everything. When tp will retire, they'll be forever, the 3 of them, together in the AT&T center

As a Suns fan, I hated the Spurs for always booting us outta the Playoffs but damn this man has done so much for the game that I will still stand up and clap my hands for an old foe. Congrats to the Spurs organization.

It’s a shame that people gave this video thumbs down.

Gracias idol❤ Die hard fan of San Antonio Spurs!!💯 Manu Ginobili is one of my favourite pLayer of all time..

GINOBILI VS BRYANT WAS AN EPIC BATTLE FROM THE 2000s.

From a Dallas Mavs fan, thank you Manu!

Thank you Manu for the memories I shared with my family growing up watching the Spurs play. I remember the battles against the Lakers more than anything. How fearless does someone have to be to go right down the lane and dunk on Shaq. Manu had the heart of a lion. I remember him dunking again in the finals in 2014 against the Heat. I jumped like I did back in grade school. To me, it brings tears to my eyes for a much more personal reason. It is this fearless nature that I have only ever seen in my dad. He taught me to compete and win in sports without ever saying a word. He is a leader by example just like Manu. Follow my lead. Gracias Manu por todo lo que haz hecho en este deporte. Haz ganado en la cancha pero lo mas importante es la forma de que tu vives con humildad y respeto.

Much love from Toronto Canada. True legend. Felt a part of my child hood dying here after CB4's ceremony also. Great memories. Thanks Manu. Best euro step ever.

Always been a fan, from long haired ginobili to bald one hahaha Congratulations!

One of my favorite players of all time just because of his will and skills to win 💯💯

Next to Tim Duncan, my favorite Spurs player. I remember his first year----raw talent. I will always remember his full court slam dunk against the Heat that propelled the Spurs to the championship after that heartbreaking loss at Miami the year before. Gracias Manu!!!

i swear there was nothing compared to how the nba was back in the day till now. Im bout to be 30 this year an see tim,parker,manu brings memories when they where dangerous back in day when they were healthy. Pop is the greatest coach of all time when he retires

I watched this whole thing... literally an hr && a half... it was awesome coming from a Houston Fan!

What a humble man, this is greatness.

The greatest Latino player of all time....so far:) Thank you Manu!!!!!

I didn't understand the spanish parts, but I felt it. Love you, Manu 🐐🐐🐐

My fave guy of my team. Manu simply one of a kind.

True team player. Puts winning above individual stats. Won everywhere he played.

Ídolo! El mas grande de Latinoamerica! Brasil tambien ama Manu! 💚💛💚💙💙💙

I was at this game, it was sad to say goodbye to such a legend. Gracias Manu!

Could have been the superstar of the other 29 teams in his time. Yet, he chose to be loyal with SAS. In return, SAS had been loyal to him as well. Legendary career to the best All Star 6th man ever. Congrats Manu.

Obi Wan Ginobili - The force will always be with you.

Thank you Manu Ginobili for everything you give us Spurs fans and NBA fans as well. The greatest player for that Eurostep that you do so well and playing the 6th man part too.

Ay Manu....cómo me hiciste llorar...! Creo que no he visto un discurso así, jamás. Se nota que te enseñaron bien en tu casa y que tenés una familia increíble. No todo puede ser casualidad, aunque tengas la humildad de reconocer que fuiste afortunado. Para mí, sos el deportista argentino más grande que tuvo nuestro país. Pero...como bien escribieron por ahí, para las leyendas, no hay ranking. Gracias por regalarme tantas sonrisas !
