Ginobili's pass through Cole's legs in Game 1 goes unnoticed

Tony Parker and Tim Duncan have been making all the headlines for the San Antonio Spurs in their run for a fifth NBA championship.

But don't forget Manu Ginobili.

Outside of hitting the game-winning shot in Game 1 of the Western Conference semifinals against the Golden State Warriors, the other member the Spurs' Big 3 has been relatively quiet during these playoffs.

Everyone has been raving about Parker's wild shot in the final seconds of Game 1 of the NBA Finals, but Ginobili also made a pretty impressive play in their win over the Miami Heat on Thursday night.

It's hard to tell what happened in full speed, but he slipped a pass to Parker through Heat guard Norris Cole's legs early in the second quarter.

This is nothing new from Ginobili. He did something similar to Tayshaun Prince in Game 4 of the Western Conference finals against the Memphis Grizzlies.





Parker and Duncan will likely still get all the attention in the Finals, but keep a close eye on Ginobili throughout the remainder of the series.
