Tony Parker had overtaken Tim Duncan as the best player on the Spurs and was in the conversation about who the best PG in the NBA was?

Odd timing thread since he just got back from injury and dropped 14/14/4 steals in 28 minutes with only 1 turnover on 50% shooting.

He did finish top 8 in MVP voting last year and has a finals MVP as well. Odd timing indeed.

I have never been a big Tony Parker fan. Spurs fans always say he is great but I wouldn't even put him in my top 5 right now or 2 years back as far as PG's go.

I always felt that Ginobili was twice the player Tony Parker ever was.

He is the best offensive player, or at least carries the most offensive burden. He is certainly not better than CP3, but is definitely in the conversation for one of the top PG's in the NBA.

Sorry but I think I could name 5 maybe even 10 PG's that could make the Spurs better than Tony Parker.

1. Chris Paul
2. Deron Williams
3. Brandon Roy (unless you consider him a SG)
4. Chauncey Billups
5. Derrick Rose

That's in no particular order, but I think at best Tony is a top 5.

16.8 point per game is their best offensive player, they must really suck.

Well, he did average 22+ last season and carried a lousy Spurs team to 54 wins and averaged 28.6 points in the first round, including his 43 point outburst. To say Parker is not the Spurs' best offensive player is a downright lie. He has been hobbled most of the year and is just barely starting to look like his old self. And when you factor in all the new Spurs taking shots away from Parker, of course his numbers are going to drop.

Those guys are not all better either. Rose is not a good defender, Billups is decent, Deron is decent. TP is on all of their level defensively. Rondo (although I don't think he is great) & CP3 (same thing) I would put ahead just because they are so good at gambling and ball-hawking.

Well I assume there is no argument on CP3 and Deron Williams.
Billups has been carrying the Nuggets and completely turned around that franchise since he got there. Hes also got the finals MVP that Parker has, if thats relevant at all.
Rondo impresses me every time I see him. A great passer, scorer and defender. To me, he is clearly a better overall point guard than Parker. He can score for himself and set others up. And he can switch between the two modes (scorer and passer) at will. I was watching one game and he had like 11 assist in the first half and then like 20 points in the second half.

The only argument for me is Rose vs. Parker. Even though Rose will clearly be the better player by as early as next year, for me Parker is better now.

That's a horrible take. If Parker can lead put his team on his back, take over and win tons of games basically by himself, and take a shitty Spurs team with a 50% Duncan and barely any Gino to the #3 seed, IN THE WESTERN CONFERENCE, you don't think he could've taken Rose's Bulls, who barely were around .500, playing in the Eastern conference where only 3 teams were relevant, to a better record?

You should know its not all about stats. Is Marcus Camby a better defensive player than Tim Duncan? Because he averages almost 13 boards per game and over 2 blocks per game this season and a few seasons back he actually averaged over 3 blcoks per game.

At least you back up 5 and 6, but just a "no" to Derrick Rose? He made the all star game for a reason this year. The Bulls started off very slow so maybe that skews your judgment but just watch the kid play. He takes over games with his drives to the basket.

The main argument for Tony Parker being an elite PG is his speed and his ability to get to the basket. Derrick Rose might be just as good as Tony Parker in that category already.

I agree with Nash. I am not a big fan of his either. Just wanted to prove my point. :lol

But Rondo vs Parker is pretty debatable. Both have similar offensive games. (Poor shooters but superior drivers), but I think that Rondo is way better on defense.

Why do you consistently overlook the fact that Parker has been injured all year? I notice you haven't responded to any of my posts because they totally shit on yours. And, OMFG, Hill averages a whopping .9 more points than Parker when he starts. Too small of a sample size anyway. Did you think maybe if Hill was injured and Parker had to play more that he would probably be scoring more too?

Whatever post the stats, but hopefully Spurs drop to the 7th seed so we can see Chauncey abuse Tony Parker.

But let me guess he is injured right now right??? He will be worn out by playoff time.

But remember that injuries are a part of the game. If a player is injury prone a less superior player can be better than him because at least he plays for his team on gameday.

I don't think Tony Parker could lead his team past the Lakers like Chauncey did a couple days ago without his best teammate. (Denver had no Melo so SA would have no Tim Duncan).

Post the stats though. I am curious.

At least you back up 5 and 6, but just a "no" to Derrick Rose? He made the all star game for a reason this year. The Bulls started off very slow so maybe that skews your judgment but just watch the kid play. He takes over games with his drives to the basket.

The main argument for Tony Parker being an elite PG is his speed and his ability to get to the basket. Derrick Rose might be just as good as Tony Parker in that category already.

I agree with Nash. I am not a big fan of his either. Just wanted to prove my point. :lol

But Rondo vs Parker is pretty debatable. Both have similar offensive games. (Poor shooters but superior drivers), but I think that Rondo is way better on defense.

I agree that Rose is a great PG and he will eventually be better than Parker but as of right now, I would definitely take Parker over Rose if they're both 100%.

Why do you consistently overlook the fact that Parker has been injured all year? I notice you haven't responded to any of my posts because they totally shit on yours. And, OMFG, Hill averages a whopping .9 more points than Parker when he starts. Too small of a sample size anyway. Did you think maybe if Hill was injured and Parker had to play more that he would probably be scoring more too?


If Parker is one of the best PG's in the NBA and the best offensive player on his team, his backup shouldn't be able to match his production when he fills for him as the starter, let alone average more points than he does.

Probably because he's been injured all year. The last 5 games or so before he hurt his ankle he was looking good and averaging 20+.

You can say whatever you want, but George Hill is not a PG. The only reason he plays backup PG is because the Spurs' system doesn't require a true pass-first PG with Tony out and he is 6'3" and oh yeah, they have no one else and Mason fucking sucks ass. Scoring more points in a couple games doesn't make Hill a better PG than Parker, it means that with Parker's 17 points absent, George was able to play more and have more opportunities to score.

Look I just think that Tony Parker at best is a top 5 PG, but like you guys have mentioned he is hurt sometimes. But that's not anyone else's fault and that makes him at times not a top PG.

So to me that makes him an All Star caliber PG, not an elite PG. But why the hell does my opinion matter right?:lol

Odd timing thread since he just got back from injury and dropped 14/14/4 steals in 28 minutes with only 1 turnover on 50% shooting.

He did finish top 8 in MVP voting last year and has a finals MVP as well. Odd timing indeed.

I think Chris Paul getting injured allowed other players on the team to get some touches and in addition showed that CP3 is a tad overrated. And once again, I never said Hill > Parker, that argument was meant to show how Parker is the product of a system.

Whatever post the stats, but hopefully Spurs drop to the 7th seed so we can see Chauncey abuse Tony Parker.

But let me guess he is injured right now right??? He will be worn out by playoff time.

But remember that injuries are a part of the game. If a player is injury prone a less superior player can be better than him because at least he plays for his team on gameday.

I don't think Tony Parker could lead his team past the Lakers like Chauncey did a couple days ago without his best teammate. (Denver had no Melo so SA would have no Tim Duncan).

Post the stats though. I am curious.

You don't really ever see Billups abuse Parker, especially not recently. If Billups is so great, why did DET trade him? Why do the vast majority of your fan base say they feared TP because no one could stop him?

TP lead his team last year to the same record as Denver with Billups and that was with a hobbled TD and Bonner/Mason/Finley all playing significant minutes.

I don't care if he is injured right now, the fact is that TP has overwhelmingly out played Billups overall and head-to-head in recent years.


Huh? Parker has guarded him over the years more than 90% of the time. Bowen defended him sometimes late in games. I'm not sure where you get that about Manu ... maybe Manu has played like 1% of the time against Billups when Parker is on the bench and the shooting guard is a worse matchup. In the 2005 Finals, the matchups were almost always Parker on Billups, Bowen on Rip and Manu on Prince.

And in recent games, Parker has done very good work defensively against Billups. In their last eight matchups, Billups has shot 4-for-10, 5-for-13, 3-for-12, 3-for-10, 3-for-10, 7-for-17, 4-for-14 and 6-for-17 for a total of 35-for-103 (33.9%). Parker used to have trouble with Billups but he's figured him out in recent years.

If Parker ever played defense on Billups as bad as Hill played today, there'd be about 15 "Trade Parker" threads.

legimate mvps? hahah spurs fans think they are judges of which mvps are legit and which are not, when parkers own finals mvp is the biggest mockery of that award. the real finals mvp in the 2007 was tim duncan. tell me would the spurs have gotten to that finals or even won it if tim ducnan wasn't there or parker? obvious answer is that they wouldn't even had that oppurutnity if tim wasn't there. he allowed everyone else to play better and made it easier, because teams focused on him the most. tim was the most crucial and most valuable player to the spurs and will always will be, without him the spurs would tank every season.

oh and parkers 3 rings. hmmm i guess parker was the driving force in 2003, 2005, and 2007, without him i don't see the spurs winning any of those ships. nope i guess if you switch nash with parker the spurs would have lost yup......sike lol please shut up about those three rings and giving leverage to parker with those three rings in debates of which point guards are better, those three rings were a product of tim duncan and the spurs system which was built around tim duncan. sorry. i'd like to see parker average nash's offensive numbers. spur fans base there parker arguments on how such a great offensive player he is, but i'd like to see him average nash's number just once, heck just in a month he can't. and who guarded nash in the playoffs and when the spurs played phoenix? bruce bowen that's who. parker can't contain nash's offensive capabilities which far surpass parkers.

Ill compare some PER 36 minute numbers... A knock on Tony is that he doesnt put up great numbers like the other elite PG's, mainly Nash, Paul and Deron. There's two reasons for this, one is Pop is reluctant to play anyone more than 32 minutes during the regular season, and Tony has never exceeded 34 in his career (maybe once?). Second, the Spurs have always played one of the 2 or 3 slowest paces in the league, meaning there is less possessions and stats. The Per 36 minute numbers adjust for the first reason, but not the second.

Anyway, Tony's numbers from the last 5 seasons.

20.0 PPG, 3.5 RPG, 6.1 APG, .548% FG, 3.3 TO
20.6 PPG, 3.6 RPG, 6.1 APG, .520% FG, 2.8 TO
20.2 PPG, 3.4 RPG, 6.4 APG, .494% FG, 2.6 TO
23.2 PPG, 3.3 RPG, 7.3 APG, .506% FG, 3.0 TO
18.9 PPG, 3.7 RPG, 6.7 APG, .487% FG, 3.0 TO

Derrick Rose 19.5 PPG, 3.7 RPG, 5.7 APG, .470% FG, 2.8 TO

So even though people are making threads, and talking about Tony's drop in production this season, even on a national level - he still has better number's than Derrick Rose. And if you want to compare a healthy Tony from last season, he blows Derrick Rose out.

Chauncey Billups 21.2 PPG, 3.3 RPG, 6.6 APG, .423 FG%, 2.6 TO

Chauncey is having a career year in terms of scoring. Yet despite his down year, Tony has very similar statistics.

Ill throw in Deron's and Paul's numbers from their best seasons.

Deron - 19.0 PPG, 2.8 RPG, 10.4 APG, .471% FG, 3.3 TO

Paul - 21.4 PPG, 5.2 RPG, 10.3 APG, .503% FG, 2.3 TO

These two are the only two guys who are clearly better than Parker - 90% of Spurfans will tell you that.

At the end of the day these are just stats. The dude is a 3-time champion and has a Finals MVP, which is what matters.

Actually Nash's MVPs were very much earned. You put Tony Parker on that 2006 Suns team and they're in the lottery. Nash took a Suns team that was held together by chewing gum and scotch tape to the Western Conference Finals and was very competitive with the Mavs. That's MVP material in my book.

Also Parker never destroyed Nash in the playoffs. Nash was putting up 25 points and 10 assists and shooting a ridiculously high percentage in the 2005 WCF. Shawn Marion was the one who pulled a Houdini and got destroyed by Ginobili in that series. And the Spurs had such a high respect for Nash's abilities Parker wasn't even guarding Nash a lot of the time in those playoff series. It was Bowen.

Also, it's nice to point to Parker's 3 rings and all but honestly 2007 was the first time Parker ever completed a title run without having his point guard duties stripped from him as a result of choking. In 2003 the Spurs turned to Speedy Claxton. In 2005 when Billups was eating Parker's lunch they not only put Bowen on Biillups they stripped Parker of his PG duties and had Ginobili and Brent Barry doing the honors. So yeah, Parker has 3 rings but it wasn't like he was dominating the competition out there.

You guys have got to be kidding me...Are you honestly saying that you would not rather have Chauncey playing with Tim Duncan and Ginobili and company right now for a run at a championship right now.

The only thing Tony Parker is better at than Chauncey is finding a way into the paint. Chauncey is the better shooter, better distributor, better ball handler, better defender, better post player, and the player with more poise. The reason Chauncey struggled at times against the Spurs was because a DPOY (Bruce Bowen) candidate was on him most of the time. When he was wasn't Chauncey continually took the smaller guards like Beno and Tony Parker inside at will.

Chauncey had such a good series in the 05 Finals that the announcers were talking about him having a chance at Finals MVP even though we lost.

Tony Parker is an all star caliber point guard at best. Nothing more. He is only superior at driving to the basket. He is an average shooter, an average distributor (for a PG), and an average defender at best.

Get the hell out of here. Again you guys sound like Lakers fans when they say Kobe doesn't have a better supporting cast than LeBron. Do you honestly think that having the best PF of all time on the team doesn't give Tony Parker a **** load of more opportunities? Get real here.

Ginobili, when healthy, is scarier than Tony Parker will ever be. Same goes for Chauncey, D Rose, Rajon Rondo (the guy is a great rebounder and defender for his size, Chris Paul, and Deron Williams.

You guys are seriously delusional. Sometimes its not about the stats. Like I said before, I usually root for you guys but this argument makes me hope you guys drop to the 7th seed, so you can actually see a good PG abuse Tony Parker.

Tim Duncan is half the reason why Tony Parker gets all of his stats.

himat
02-07-2010, 11:43 PM
You guys keep pulling out these stats when you fail to realize that a bigger aspect of the game is leading a team. Tony Parker isn't the best player on his team. Hell he isn't even the second best player on his team (Ginobili is).

Steve Nash, for all his failures on defense, lead his Suns team.

Chauncey Billups, not Carmello, is the true leader of the Nuggets team that is currently 2nd in the Western Conference.

Derrick Rose was the leader of that Bulls team that almost upset the former world champs...as a ROOKIE.

Chris Paul is the leader of the Hornets franchise.

Deron Williams is the leader of the Utah Jazz.

Hell even Rajon Rondo might be the leader of the Celtics now the way the Big Three are deteriorating before our ways.

Tony Parker plays 3rd fiddle on his team. I don't know if he is good enough to accomplish what these other PG's have done on less talented teams. And don't give me this Bonner, Finley, scrub crap. You guys won 4 championship for a reason. Again give me a break.

Parker is not TOP 5...you'd be a fool not to take Deron, CP3, Rondo, Billups, and Nash before him. Rose is arguable, although honestly Id still take Parker over him at this point in time. Also Parker is a bad shooter and a bad defender especially this season, kind of dumb to knock Rondo and Nash about those things when Parker has those struggles as well. I never agreed with the notion that this was Parker's team last season, this team always has been and always will be #21's as long as he's playing because to me being the best player on the team entails that you have the biggest overall impact...the defense even while hobbled still depended alot on TD and he was still a significant part of the offense last year. As for this season, its clear that its Tim Duncan's team.

Sorry but I think I could name 5 maybe even 10 PG's that could make the Spurs better than Tony Parker.

1. Chris Paul
2. Deron Williams
3. Brandon Roy (unless you consider him a SG)
4. Chauncey Billups
5. Derrick Rose
6. Rajon Rondo
7. Steve Nash

That's in no particular order, but I think at best Tony is a top 5.

If we're calling Roy a PG, then we're calling James, Wade and Bryant PG's too because, they're all de facto PG's. I wouldn't even call Evans a PG, even though the Kings are pretending he is.

I love how Rose, on the basis of two good months and the fact that he projects to be better than Parker, is automatically placed ahead of him by many it seems. Let's just forget Parker playing out of his mind in the second half of last season, the Finals MVP, years of steady play in which he's increasingly gotten better, etc.

Rondo is a better all around player, but until he can at least not be a liability as a jump shooter and show that he can carry his team on his back for an extended stretch (and no, he has not done this yet), I don't see how he can be placed ahead of Parker.

Paul and Williams, I'd definitely put ahead of Parker. Billups and Nash, there's certainly an argument for, but Parker is at worst the fifth best PG in the league. Billups is simply having a career year though. I doubt he keeps up this current level of play. I actually think he's been overrated the past few seasons and now that he's having an outstanding season people are pretending like he's played at this level all along. Not true.

However you order them, it's clear that those are the top seven PG's in the league.

Damn this is random. It's like people were just waiting for TP to consistently play below his usual level so they could rag on him. Anyway, this isn't TP's best season. He's injured and tired right now. For a while there he was considered the Spurs best player. Don't really care when people say TD>>>>>>TP, because shit, they're both on our team anyway. And I know people like to have the TP vs any other pg in the leauge argument, but the truth is alot of pgs have bigger names, but TP has always held his own against the other pgs in the leauge. The only one who ever gave him consistent trouble was Marbury, and well he's not even relevant anymore.

This season his numbers are nearly identical to his career numbers. I'm judging him by his career numbers, you're judging him by one fluke career season.

I for one never bought this argument ...TP was great in the Finals and even started last year on fire ...
BUT ANYONE who thinks TP HAS EVER been the MVP, or better player or more key to Spurs title hopes or the rings you guys have ... are idiots ...
TP is a border-line All-star PG
TIM is still the best big man in the NBA ...

I agree TD is >>>> than TP. especially this season. Not much to say for TP except that he has not been himself. Not the same speed, and he's obviously hurt and tired.

No, if you followed him, you know that he's not himself this season. Not my fault you don't watch tp enough.

No. He is up there and is incredibly important, but TP carries the offense all around.

Yeah I agree, them dropping 111 on Denver last night was all him.

I'm not gonna post in this thread anymore cause I have no way of explaining how the Spurs score 111 points without the player who does "everything" for them on offense

Lakers are rolling teams without Kobe, so Derrick Rose>Kobe because his team is mediocre in the East.

Yeah because all the other PG's would've done better with a team consisting of
Mason
Finley
Bonner
Duncan - Hobbled by knee all year

This was his team last yr and took them to 54 wins. Manu was hurt all yr, Bowen, Ime and Kurt Thomas coming off the bench. Yeah, but he sucks.

Clipper and Knick fan, do you have a PG that's better? Yeah no one, at least this team has someone who we can put in the argument as top PG. There were numerous articles outside SA that were writing about TP. But yeah we're homers.

Trade Tony Longoria for a star big man. Hill is ready to take the reins.

Especially if Manu stays healthy and playing the way he is.
