Welcome to Timothy Varner :tu

[honestfool84]

:tu good read.

[tav1]

Thanks for having me.

As someone who was always advocating for keeping the PG who was putting up MVP numbers a year prior to everyone shouting to trade him, I can say that this article is a nice read.

And to all the "Spurs fans" who carry a "What have you done for me lately" attitude like it's a badge of honor, get bent.

[lefty]

TP is playing like an MVP candidate so far

[polandprzem]

Is is possible to write something. i mean anything and it can be put on the site?

Or must it be a commitment for a longer period of time?

Nice article!

Tony is really balling this year, we are all amazed by his allaround game improvement (assits, steal, D ...) but there's something that we almost take for granted and that is scary, it's his efficiency...
I mean 54% when you share more the ball...
He is definetely the best scoring PG (although Nash and Paul are not far) in the league!

If he keeps this level, the spurs FO will remain in NBA History as the best negociators ever ... (TP ext., Manu's last deal, Splitter, RJ, ...)

Welcome to Timothy Varner :tu
a long-time member

[boutons_deux]

No mention of the adultery and divorce? WTF?

[DBMethos]

Love Varner's articles on 48MoH...he's a great addition to the Dispatch. Kudos! :toast

I liked the article specially the opinion about his role in this year's team, can't make sense of the title though.

I know what the phrase "C'est la vie" means, but it doesn't make sense the way it is used. Are you trying to say that Tony is shrugging away last year's problems/performance?

I was hoping I would discover the context in the article but I haven't.

Sounds like you work for the hwy. department in San Antonio.

Nice little read. Thanks for sharing. The rest over the summer has obviously done wonders for Tony. I think his off the court issues may be playing a small role in his improved play as well. He's human and I am sure he is having somewhat of a difficult time with all that is happening right now, but I think the basketball court is a safe haven for him right now. Its a place where he can get away from it all.

This title is weird indeed...

I guess he meant that last year was last year, life goes on ,bla bla bla

Fantastic! Nice to have Tim Varner's great work on Dispatch, as well as 48. :tu

[will_spurs]

Welcome Tim (so to speak, since you've obviously been a member for quite a while). Nice to see you contribute to the Dispatch, your skills are put to good use!

(just for the record, I'm Will @ 48MoH)

[TimmehC]

Glad you guys got Varner as a contributor, he's a great writer. Good stuff.

Parker has the Spurs looking like the biggest challengers to the Lakers out West. He is having his finest shooting season, while establishing a new personal standard in dimes. (Last week: 10 | Team record: 12-1)

Good article.

Now Varner just has to stop using titles suggested by ducks.

[Pauleta14]

Didn't know where to post it, but I found an illarious japanese video about Tony's divorse!
