Ginobili dunk pic

by bduran on Dec 10, 2010 4:52 PM CST

I need help finding a certain picture of Ginobili dunking. I loved this pic because it was Ginobili dunking over a Warrior player (Davis or Jackson?) lying on the ground and I liked to call it "textbook warriors defense" . I didn't come up with this caption, Stampler had a somewhat similar pic of TD that he'd posted with that caption and I stole it. Anyone have the Ginobili pic? Here's the picture of TD.

I’m not sure what photo you are talking about. Check the Spurs website for that game and view the photo gallery for it.

Just checked the website – No such photo among those on the website for the Warriors game in San Antonio

Sorry, should have been more clear

This pic is actually from a few years ago. I found the above pic by seraching “textbook warriors defense” on PTR. This pic is from a April 11, 2007 post by Stampler. I believe the Ginobili pic is from the same season, but I’m not 100%, it could be from the next. I tried looking on the Spurs website, but couldn’t figure out how to view galleries for prior seasons.
Thanks for the responses.

Since neither Davis nor Jackson are playing for the Warriors right now, we mighta figured that you’re looking for something that’s a few years old.

Hey, if posting a sharp, insightful, yet non-sarcastic comment were that easy, even olf would do it.

Yes thank you! That’s it. Every few weeks I try to find that pic and have been unable to. I really appreciate it you finding it. Sadly, I can’t download it.

Well, now that you know that game took place on March 26, 2007. Maybe you’ll be able to find it from a source that will let you save/download it.

Well, it turns out that wasn’t quite the picture I remembered. It’s the right dunk, but not the right angle. I used that link to find the following pic on getty images. This is the one I was looking for. Unfortuanately, to get it without the water mark, I need to pay for it. I’ll keep looking. Maybe one day I can get a 6 by 10 of it signed “Textbook Warriors Defense – Manu Ginobili”. I can dream, right?
