Houston Rockets v San Antonio Spurs - Game Five
Houston Rockets v San Antonio Spurs - Game Five

This has to be the best game-winning moment of Manu's career without a doubt. During the 2017 NBA Playoffs, Manu made a game-winning block on James Harden in game 5 of the Second-Round to give Spurs a huge OT victory.

The Spurs lost Kawhi in the second half due to ankle injury and were in a tough spot. That did not stop Ginobili from stepping up and produce one of the greatest plays of his career. James Harden who dominated the game for most part posted a triple-double and had 33 points, 10 rebounds and 10 assists. Rockets were down by 3 and had the chance to tie the game with a 3-pointer. Rockets guard, Harden was blocked from behind on an attempt for a 3-pointer in final seconds of the game.
