Tony Parker is mortal after all.

[South Side Spurs Fan]

Questions for you guys:
What if we don't get 23 from Bonner today?

And just how important is it to have guys who can step up when the opposing defense takes away your favorite option? (TODAY PARKER WAS THAT OPTION!)

As much as I am reassured by today's win, I'm still left wondering who's going to be that guy when we go to L.A.? Matty won't be getting any home cooking there...

[ducks]

spurs would have got 25 from tp
or finley and mason shot more shots

Questions for you guys:
What if we don't get 23 from Bonner today?What if Tim Duncan was drafted by the Celtics.


And just how important is it to have guys who can step up when the opposing defense takes away your favorite option?Um, very.

Home cooking? Did they increase the diameter of the rim every time he shot?

[SequSpur]

TP is a 3 time allstar, 3 Time Champ, Finals MVP, future hall of famer and the ATT center will be renamed after him.

now what was the topic?

[South Side Spurs Fan]

Then maybe this will connect the dots...

I'd just like to remind you guys of a couple of things I said early on this season.

1) When we are playing great teams, Parker can and many times will be taken out of the game. Top tier teams gameplan to stop Parker, and unlike Manu and Duncan, if you play him right (shut down the lane, don't give him any daylight) he can't create for himself.

That being said, I thought he played a great game today against the Celts, being patient and keeping the offense going without forcing the issue. Despite shooting 25% against a defense that was determined to shut him down, he only had one turnover and 7 assists. That's going to keep us in any game.

2) Mason is still a killer (Just hope he makes a habit of showing up for the rest of the game).

If is not Tony then it will be Manu, if not Mason, Finley, Hill, Thomas, etc.

he is human 1 bad game out of 9 is not bad

[Shastafarian]

I'm no Parker lover but even so, this thread makes my head hurt.

I'm no Parker lover but even so, this thread makes my head hurt.

Sorry about the confusion, I'm just hoping this one won't get trashed like the first one (thanks Timvp!)

[ChumpDumper]

This is why there are five players on the court.

[FreeMason]

now what was the topic?

How he sucked today and can't play defense.

[ducks]

what if allen goes 1-15

[jag]

lmao how many of these stupid threads are you gonna make? Didnt you just make one?

[roycrikside]

what if allen goes 1-15

Ducks, you certainly let the board know about it with stupid Trade Manu threads whenever he plays poorly. Rondo ate Tony's lunch today. Just accept it with humility and move on.

We're very lucky Bonner and Timmy played well enough for them to survive an awful game from Tony and an average one from Manu.

[EricB]

The Parker hater is back again?

Man the last few weeks with him doing good must have pissed you off.

[timvp]

That being said, I thought he played a great game today against the CeltsDisagree. Parker was far from great. He was far from even good.

But I'll take the win.


When we are playing great teams, Parker can and many times will be taken out of the game. Don't think I agree with this either. Maybe back four or five years ago Parker could be taken out of games by great teams. In recent years, I haven't seen a team take him out of a series. He has bad games sometimes but even if he's made the number one priority to stop, Parker can still find ways. See: Cleveland and Utah, 2007.

Average?

Ginobili had 19 and like 5 rebounds.

Shit...

You guys need to chill.

[South Side Spurs Fan]

When I called for other guys to get incorporated into the offense early in the season (Mason, Hill) TP Fanboys and girls cried "No Need, He's superhuman, <50%, Let Parker take every shot,"

Guess those views were short sighted ay?

I think that Manu's game was a lot more than average.

[spursfan09]

This is why the Spurs are called the Spurs and not the Parkers. Wow the concept of team! Do you understand that when Parker is having an off game other players on the team can step up and perform? And when other players are having off games, TP can step up and perform.

[kace]

what's the point of this thread ? i don't even understand.

Parker was trapped and doubled today, that was part of the celtics plan. so, i don't mind him scoring only 7 points (with 7 ass) if that's mean open shots for his teamates (bonner).

but needing 12 shots to score this 7 points means tony had a bad night.

but once again, what's your question ??

Don't try to understand. It just a hater talking shit.

you are full of it

yes, he sucked but will you bring the good points of his game like you do with manu or tim when they have a bad shooting night ?

i mean tony was decent on D, had 7 assists (with 1 TO) and was the main reason bonner scored so much.

his j's was awful though.

[ducks]

I give props to tp and pop adjusting and tp not forcing alot of shots
and pop adjusting to what boston d did

in past tp would force shots

[Pauleta14]

Tony Parker's bad game is probably the best aspect of the win!!!
TP level is not the subject, a bad game happen, especially when opposite team's D is focused on you...

But the good news is that our Spurs look like the old time again, anybody can step up, we don't care about the stats (Now that he is in the ASG, Tony doesn't need to get his numbers...)

I'm quite optimistic after that win!

[South Side Spurs Fan]

Timvp, you couldn't be more wrong.

Parker did what he was supposed to today: he guided our team to a win. And this is not a Parker hating thread, this is a parker fanboy hating thread! there is a major difference....

Team first!
Go Spurs.

[jag]

*I hate Tony Parker...but when i bring stupid takes and hate on him, people always hate on me. So i'm gonna pull a fast one on everybody...i'll start threads pretending to say good things about Tony when i'm actually trying to expose negative qualities about the guy.

Ya, cause then everyone will know how bad Tony sucks and no one will tell me i'm a shitty poster. Ya!*

I totally agree with this post. Thats why I say TP had a great game. Thats why I also so Timvp is overrated as a spurs authority...

[jack sommerset]

now what was the topic?

And the most OVERRATED point guard in the NBA and he is no HOF, he has all that hardware because of one guy,one man and his name is Duncan. A HOF makes me freaken laugh. We will wait. Duncan will be gone soon enough.

Whats TP record when Duncan is out?

[spursncowboys]

7 assists, 3 rebounds,1 of 3 behind the line and one steal isn't that bad, especially being double teamed and full court pressed. Parker definitely could do better (3 for 12 fg) but he did better than rondo.

[Kori Ellis]

We understand. You hate Parker. You start the same thread (or something like it with a different twist) over and over after every time Parker doesn't play well. We get it. Move on. Trying to disguise it by saying "Parker did what he was supposed to do" today is just a cover. Parker didn't do what he was supposed to do today at all. He's supposed to relentlessly attack and score. He didn't.

[Kori Ellis]

Rondo had over 15 assists. Parker didn't play better than Rondo.

Actually they could be called The Duncans because the history of the team is very different since he came here.We have to create the church of TD.

How is this any different from ducks starting thread after thread hating when Manu has a lousy game?
I personally thought Tony had a good game considering that Rondo wasn't a factor for Boston. Sometimes when the ball is not going in, at least you can hang your hat on what you did in the othe end.

TP never could be MVP of the Finals without TD.Manu never could be all star without TD.Robinson would have retired without ring and Pop had been fired long time ago.
It's not only TP who was benefited to play with TD

[Kori Ellis]

I didn't even know timvp was rated to be overrated. Where's the SpursTalk poster power rankings for Spurs authority? :lol

[DPG21920]

This is another thread that makes you go Holy Sh**

Not sure if TP is mortal, but some games I want make him mortal :D

but everyone thinks ducks does

He lets Sequ start them and then has 15 posts in them. Quick, let's trade him before his value is nothing!

[SequSpur]

Rondo had over 15 assists. Parker didn't play better than Rondo.

Spurs won.

Parker > Rondo.

[ducks]

tp set booner up today

[roycrikside]

Spurs won.

Parker > Rondo.

that's retarded. Whenever the Spurs win but Manu plays poorly you don't write that Ginobili was > over whoever.

Just accept the facts (and this goes for Ducks too and all the CoT and CoM) out there:

TONY SUCKED OUT LOUD TODAY. HE WAS AWFUL. He was pretty much the worst guy on the floor, especially in the second half. Don't make excuses for it. It happened.

Some games Manu plays poorly. Even Timmy, once in a blue moon, plays a bad game. A lot more often guys like Bonner, Fin, Mace, whoever, play badly. This is why it's a team game. So let's not make threads attacking or defending whoever every game.

[superbigtime]

Tony is the spurs second most consistent player behind Tim in my opinion. But every now and then he has one of these games. And Rondo countered with a 3 of 11 performance of his own. So it evened out.

[InK]

Its rather sad that some feel the need to call players out on arguably the best W of the season. Tony sucked and we still won, can hardly get better then that.

I think I'm gonna go smoke one
