someone on youtube wrote:I was there!

Firs of all the bat delayed the game twice, which could never be sanctioned by the nba, so it wasn't staged! Just another Halloween miracle...

Ginobli swiped it out of the air and got a standing ovation/an entire arena chanting his name, no big deal

Faaantastic.
Swatted and picked it up like it was nothing. That's a real man!

He also finally cut his hair short instead of looking like an idiot with long hair and a bald spot.


Manu deserves at least a 90 block rating in Live/2K in the next roster update.

You forgot to mention the bat's upside.

Tremendous upside potential in that bat right there

Also, he's lightning quick and hardly anyone can guard him. His go-to move is called killer bite, there will be a man behind him with the ball, he'll just fly to the basket with mouth open, trying to bite everyone on his way, so everyone will run away from him, the man behind will follow him and he gets an easy basket. On the negative side, he has an awful ball handling and has very low basketball IQ. But he sure is a pure winner, if the opponent starts to annoy him, he can just give them rabies. If he would improve his ball handling and shot selection, could be possibly even more unstoppable than MJ himself.

That's not really fair, I doubt Robin is capable of being an unbiased official. Then again when your opponent is Superman, I guess you need to have some advantage to balance things out.

Manu Ginobili has decided to stay away from bats in the future.

The San Antonio Spurs star says on his Facebook page that he had to be vaccinated for rabies after catching a bat and removing it from the court during a victory over Sacramento on Halloween.

Ginobili posted Monday that he doesn’t know if the bat had rabies but he had to get vaccinated to make sure he was safe. He also encouraged people to “avoid contact with bats, skunks, raccoons, rats and animals like that.”

The bat swooped into the AT&T Center on Saturday night and descended onto the court late in the first period. The bat circled and left only to return — briefly.

Ginobili swatted it out of the air with a bare hand and carried the creature off the court to thunderous cheers.

Probably a good idea. I'm amazed that there hasn't been a louder response from various animal rights groups though. Seems like the kind of thing they'd jump on.

probably because he just KO'd it and it got released
