I would think Per 36 would be a better indicator, since his minutes increase quite a bit for the playoffs... haven't looked at what those numbers look like, but my recollection is that Tony has always been fairly steady until last season, tbh
Parker's scoring production has increased in the postseason in 12 of his 13 playoff runs:
2001-02 - Regular Sesason: 9.2/4.3 | Playoffs 15.5/4.0 (+6.3)
2002-03 - Regular Sesason: 15.5/5.3 | Playoffs 14.7/3.5 (-0.8)
2003-04 - Regular Sesason: 14.7/5.5 | Playoffs 18.4/7.0 (+3.7)
2004-05 - Regular Sesason: 16.6/6.1 | Playoffs 17.2/4.3 (+0.6)
2005-06 - Regular Sesason: 18.9/5.8 | Playoffs 21.1/3.8 (+2.2)
2006-07 - Regular Sesason: 18.6/5.5 | Playoffs 20.8/5.8 (+2.2)
2007-08 - Regular Sesason: 18.8/6.0 | Playoffs 22.4/6.1 (+3.6)
2008-09 - Regular Sesason: 22.0/6.9 | Playoffs 28.6/6.8 (+6.6)
2009-10 - Regular Sesason: 16.0/5.7 | Playoffs 17.3/5.4 (+1.3)
2010-11 - Regular Sesason: 17.5/6.6 | Playoffs 19.7/5.2 (+2.2)
2011-12 - Regular Sesason: 18.3/7.7 | Playoffs 20.1/6.8 (+1.8)
2012-13 - Regular Sesason: 20.3/7.6 | Playoffs 20.6/7.0 (+0.3)
2013-14 - Regular Sesason: 16.7/5.7 | Playoffs 17.4/4.8 (+0.7)
...whereas a guy like Duncan's scoring decreased in the postseason in '98, '04, & '11 (3 out of his 16 playoff runs). I think there are people on this board that think that Parker actually scores less in the playoffs than in the regular season. Just like there are people who think he actually hasn't led our team in scoring the past 3 regular seasons and playoffs, which of course resulted in 3 trips to the WCF, 2 trips to the Finals, and 1 NBA Championship (along with having a top 3 regular season record those years, 2 of them being #1).

Efficiency:
.550 TS% - regular season
.518 TS% - post season
Is that the stat that includes assists and FT's? Yeah that one is not Tony's best at. but it's ok if you think thats the best. It's not like Tony has stopped the Spurs from winning too many les. His streak of ruining us from 2008 to 2013 was pretty impressive though
spurs get alot of hockey assist but those do not help tp's assist
duncan is a big guy and in a half court game his stats should be better
when was the last time you heard an opposing team say you stop duncan you stop the spurs
heard last year you stop tp you stop the engine of the spurs
game plans were to stop tp not duncan
you can have those stats...I'm taking 4 time champ, 1 FMVP.
You're truly a moron.
such bitterness. When did Parker hurt you?
Here, let me earn your respect:
Efficiency:
.550 TS% - regular season
.518 TS% - post season
This man's a sucker
TS% is the last refuge of the Kobe fan. Free throws are just too mercurial and ref-based to ever be considered a key stat for winning. Especially in the playoffs, where calls are harder to get. In the 4th quarter of a tight game, I would much rather have a better finisher than a player that is better at putting his head down and bull charging the basket looking for a call.
See James Harden's whining about the recent Grizz game. Half of his game is hunching over like a chimp swinging his arms into others to troll for a call. Sometimes the refs just aren't going to give it to him.
Why are you talking about Manu? This an Enrique thread, and we all know Manu sucked in the 2013 finals..
Enrique
Manu didn't just suck, you re ed argie. Manu was the #1 reason for the Spurs not winning that championship. This thread slowly turned into a discussion about playoff failure. I figured we should talk about the biggest failure of them all.
TP 2013 finals:
Game 2 : 5-14 FG , 5 turnovers , -27
Game 6: 6-23 FG
Game 7: 3-12 FG, 2 turnovers , -4
TP Last two games of the 2013 finals: 9-35 - TP in losses 21-65 FG - 32% FG in losses
Manu last two games of the 2013 finals 8-17

and in Game 6, Manu still had more turnovers (8) than Tony did during the three games you posted.
too stupid to remember that Tony played that entire series hurt (after the first game) and still managed to carry Manu's worthless ass for 5 games.
So... you are a Spur fan who finds it (--> hilarious) when a player from your favorite team shoots 9-35 during NBA Finals
Does that make any sense?
6-23 FG is almost as bad if not worse than 8 turnovers.
oh boy here we go again with the injury excuses..
21-65 FG in Losses
He's a manu fan, not a Spurs fan. It's the only way to explain the level of re ation that would allow someone to overlook Manu's performance during the 2013 Finals.
I'm laughing at jag who is a Parker that thinks Manu was the only reason we lost the 2013 finals.
