Good old Manu. By almost any standard of measurement based on talent, Manu certainly wouldn’t be 10th on this list. But he’s ranked here because the Spurs are “boring” and no one likes to watch them on television in all likelihood, Manu isn’t taking his talents away from San Antonio this offseason. The cohesive bond between the pillars of the Spurs organization (Pop, Timmy, Parker, Manu) seems to be in place until at least one of them retires. So is your favorite team going to be making a run at the 35 year-old Argentinian? Probably not. Biggest question for Manu and San Antonio: does anyone retire if they win the Finals?

Potential Destination: San Antonio Spurs
