Tony Parker is not...

[midnightpulp]

clutch.

[spurraider21]

:rolleyes

he's been a terrible closer for us all year.

[timtonymanu]

Too bad the Spurs other clutch guard is made of glass and spends most of his time on the bench.

[ElNono]

laid an egg tonight... you expect 4-10 from Danny Green, not Tony Parker... outscored by Norris Cole? Yeah, no

[benefactor]

He's supposed to be the leader of this team and today he was outplayed by a kid in his second year. Shameful.

[midnightpulp]

:rolleyes

he's been a terrible closer for us all year.

:lol The Heat's two best perimeter defenders didn't play, not to mention their best PG defender in Chalmers, they really have no shot blocking, and Parker was held to 4-13 shooting for 12 points.

This was a big game for the Spurs, and Parker once again wilted under the spotlight.

I almost want this team to get the 7th seed now, because I have zero confidence they can beat the Lakers (and yeah, the Lakers are getting the 8th seed).

[BatManu20]

Eh yea it's a tough/embarrassing loss but Miami's repeating anyways. Spurs have regressed since the All-Star break and Miami's easily the best team in the league. It's Lebron's time. Let's just hope we get the Lakers in the 1st round so we can send them home.

[thunderup]

I expected more out of Tony. He got thoroughly outclassed by the Devil's godson Norris fucking Cole.

there isn't any spinning. most of us (well some of us) have always had problems with him as our so called best player.

shit TDMVPDPOY was banned upstairs for calling him out on his heroball shit. well least i can start mentally preparing for the depression down the pike...

once it was announced wade and lbj weren't playing, it was no longer a big game tbh.

Spurs go only as far as Duncan and Manu takes them. Can't rely on a midget PG to lead them to a championship.

Not a meltdown at all. I call it as I see it, and the Spurs have been playing crappy basketball for the past month.

There's also Lakersground.net (which you're a member of) if you feel like being a homer.

[Latarian Milton]

yamhead is probably the shittiest PG of any nba team's rotation, tony ought to have played better tonight tbh.

[baseline bum]

Too bad the Spurs other clutch guard is made of glass and spends most of his time on the bench.

???? Green played 32 minutes tonight.

[mercos]

Parker has been clutch all season. This was his first bad game since coming back from the ankle injury. When an opposing team decides to make someone else beat them and double team a superstar, the other players have to step up. Spurs role players did not tonight.

this is true. i wouldn't go so far to say TP is a top 3 or 5 player in the league, but he's good enough with the team we have

[DMC]

Spurs played like the game didn't matter because the game didn't matter.

Ray Allen, Chris Bosh, Haslem, Chalmers and Miller are a formidable group. James and Wade sitting is a shallow gesture tbh.

Mexican Argentinian truth bombs. he's great for the regular season, but when it's crunch time, his tunnel vision always kicks in.

[DMC]

Of course, I've said it before. Role players play like role players when the pressure is on. That's why they are role players. Danny Green is going to regress to the mean, and Gary Neal will flat out disappear. The Spurs are not that good, but most of the rest of the league flat out blows in comparison to the super teams.

There's almost no parity in the league now. You have a team of all stars in Miami and a team of all stars in LA (two teams of all stars actually) yet the West guys cannot get it together. This has been the mold for many years, the NBA trying to build a super matchup for the Finals. It's futile because popularity doesn't always stay in phase with ability, and the league's ability to manipulate the outcome of games is very limited. So what we will end up with, again, is a group of "meh" guys from OKC against the best the East has to offer. Now if they could only get Melo and Irving on the Heat, and get Durant to the Clippers or Lakers, there would be a show. As it stands, it's just a lot of hype and a huge let down in the Finals.

[FkLA]

Meh, its a regular season game and the appeal of this game took a huge hit when The King and co. sat it out. Not a Parker fan but hes been pretty good this regular season tbh. Still waiting for him to step up in the playoffs though...his disappearing acts in the postseason are well chronicled. He was nowhere to be found in 14 of the last 16 quarters during last years backdoor sweep. PJax neutralized him all the time too.

[FkLA]

He's supposed to be the leader of this team and today he was outplayed by a kid in his second year. Shameful.

Didnt you used to talk shit to me for saying basically the same thing upstairs? :lol

He deserves it tonight. Most of your upstairs Parker smack was just poor trolling.

[FkLA]

:lol no, if I called him out about a piss poor performance Id get a response like this:


He spent the whole fucking road trip coming up big. Why shit on him after one bad game? It's not like they crapped the bed against some cupcake team and they still don't have Manu.

Parker just spent the whole month of February coming up big on the road. Giving him shit after one game is pretty lame tbh.

[FkLA]

But it is what it is, Im just sitting back chilling cause I was right about Parker all along tbh. :hat

[HI-FI]

:lol so true

Last point guard driven system that lead his team to a title....thomas, pistons 1990...fucking 23 years ago.

Edit: as a spurs fan I love Parker, but its to easy to shut a pt guard down in the playoffs unless you're one of the all time greats like Thomas and magic. Pop did this over and over to Nash, and then proceeded to hand the reigns over to Parker :lol

[benefactor]

Parker just spent this whole regular season coming up big. Giving him shit after one game is pretty lame tbh.
The difference is pretty easy to see. This is just more purposeful dishonesty for the sake of shitty trolling...much like you do upstairs. You can take that bullshit back up there.

[FkLA]

So if Parker comes up big all season but has a shitty game against an undermanned team its fair to call him unclutch? But if he has a great February and has a shitty game against a strong team he remains clutch? :lol

[spursfan09]

Miami did a good job double teaming parker. It's part of the coach game plan to make the adjustment.

[Thread]

It's not coming as easy for him. He's laboring to get his signature moves off, whereas in the recent past it flowed with the required effort and no more.

[Latarian Milton]

tonight's parker ain't he best of him but i don't see the reason to blame him for the loss. spurs could've won it and they were very close to a W when they were leading by 1 with only 11 secs left. spurs were also having a rest tonight, which was much needed after the hard fight against monkeyball the other night.

[TDMVPDPOY]

lol told you clowns this team will go nowhere with this fake ass leader, enjoy another playoff exit fellas...

[HI-FI]

you don't have to tell me. i knew as soon as he became our number 1 option, shit was not looking good. plus banging a teammate's wife invalidates your leadership status. fortunately we have a resurgent Duncan to anchor things down, but can't count on that forever.

[jag]

:lol Full-blown retards in this thread. Starting with the TS.

Dude has been the most "clutch" player on the Spurs all year. He has a shit game and all the sudden the rest of his season is negated.

[Sean Cagney]

DAMN, Mid comes through with the truth

So the truth is we can't beat the Lakers now? LMFAO, you again.

[TDMVPDPOY]

i swear some of the idiots upstairs coming down here looking for sympathy....gtfo

saying his not 100% this game, so the other games b4 this he had no problem coming back from injury...dont pick and choose games with the injury bullshit

he got outplayed by a fkn scrub

[irishock]

So the truth is we can't beat the Lakers now? LMFAO, you again.

The truth is that he's scared of the Lakers you **** :lol. Not because the Lakers in 2013 can beat the Spurs, but because they're the Lakers and you know Manu and Timmy are still haunted by 2004 and 2008.

[Sean Cagney]

Why would he be scared of LA? They are not exactly world beaters this year by any means and all banged up as well! I doubt Spurs are still haunted by 04 and 08 now, the teams are not nearly the same and LA is just not that good this year, period. He can be scared all he wants, he is not the team fortunately. I doubt they would lose to LA this year, and I don't even know if LA makes the playoffs this year TBH so wait for that.

Spurs might not even get the #1 seed to tell you the truth, thats up in the air too so alot can happen.

[TDMVPDPOY]

remember when clowns from upstairs were giving other mvp candidates shit

lol tp shitty stats against a scrub

because I have zero confidence they can beat the Lakers (and yeah, the Lakers are getting the 8th seed).

pretty much

No denying that TP shit the bed this game against the Heat but this is by far is most consistent season and he has been pretty clutch all the year with great games against quality opponents so yeah of course a great defensive team focusing stopping him bother him, he is no Dirk 2011 type of player. At the end of the day he is still one of the best player of the league and for the price Spurs are paying him, fans should spend their time sucking his ass tbh.

[midnightpulp]

Yep.

YOu guys are better no doubt, but no sweep buddy ...

[BatManu20]

If you've watched him since he came back from that injury, then you'd know that he hasn't even been close to the same player he was before it. He was dominating at the PG position before the injury, easily having the best year of any PG in the league. He's clearly just not right at the moment. Shit happens, you just gotta handle it as best you can and move forward.

[TrainOfThought5]

Never been more confident of the Spurs not making the Finals. Props to Duncan for having a resurgent year, but even his good play can't swing the balance of a series when Frenchie's in playoff form. There's really only 2 players left worth respecting on that team (in a playoff situation)--maybe 3 if Splitter continues to improve.

Tony doesn't have any major injury (ie: Gallo)... at least that we know of... since it looks we're going to get the #2 seed regardless (and might be preferable seeing what happened to Denver), he should just sit him out and let him heal.

Sucks, because Utah or the Lakers are much more accessible than the Rockets. Harden will be fresh for the playoffs and he always been a handful.

I know you are fellow Bills fan, but that is a complete shit take. I guess Spurs fans shouldn't respect anyone on the Lakers cause they are a combine 1-8 in their last two playoff series.

Arrogant posts like that one will just make it sweeter when LAL is watching at home, while the big boys continue on into the next round. How does it feel to go from claiming championship (prior to the season) to just hoping and praying you even make it to the dance?

Oh, and getting drilled by 30+ during Phil Jackson's final game is way worse than losing to Memphis and getting "backdoor swept." At least the Spurs showed heart and didn't buckle under the pressure eventually resorting to bush league tactics.

Arrogant, yes. You claimed that you don't "respect" - I'm sure the guys wearing purple & piss respect them plenty - anyone on the Spurs. Which is a ridiculously wrong thing to say. As much as I hate and loathe the Lakers and Kobe Bryant, I can't ever say that I don't respect him or them.

a sensible and underrated post tbh. that's my biggest problem with Parker, he's very good in the regular season, but it's the same shit every playoffs. Once he can't penetrate, then he tries to flop more. Once that doesn't work, his heroball jumper becomes a serious liability. You can tell his game is off by his pouting. It's the same thing, every crunch time. He's gotten much better at facilitating this year, but I still don't trust him when shit hits the fan. I honestly don't know what the solution is. Nando seems better at court vision, ball movement, but TP's shooting touch >>>>> Nando's at this point, not to mention TP is quicker obviously.

[FkLA]

I dont see how you can feel good about a team that is struggling to stay above .500 and whos best player is playing through all sorts of injuries tbh.

And the only hope we have with Parker, is to hope his inconsistent jumpshot gets hot during the OKC series. I mean its went ice cold for so many big series in the past that its bound to get hot at some point. Hopefully its this year.

man his been a scrub all his life, has the league ran out of players to overrate and market then resorting to this clown
03 bailed by claxton
05 bailed by horry, ginoboli
07 bailed by boobie gibson

all 3 of them championship runs his been freeloading each round and gettin bailed out
then you look at the years the spurs didnt win during that stretch of 6years, he was the usual suspect to disappear in games...this clown has benefited and gain from hiding behind the other 2 players that he hasnt contributed shit, while the same shit always pop up with him in every series...

Tony is still nursing his ankle. His situation doesn't hurt the Spurs chances at the Finals. All this talk about him is hilarious seeing how he's been carrying the team with the best record in the West all season until he was injured.

[midnightpulp]

Tony Parker: 2 points on 0-5 shooting.

Steve Blake: 18 points on 7-11 shooting.

:lmao


This is precisely why I don't want to see the Lakers in the 1st round, Kirby or no Kirby. Parker shits the bed against the Lakers every fucking' time. For whatever reason, his nuts crawl up into his ass when sees those Purple 'n Gold jerseys. And I would bet my house that we could put that little French faggot in a time machine, send him back to '94, and Sedale Threatt would demolish him.

I hope he goes off in the 2nd half and proves me somewhat wrong (only way he'd completely prove me wrong is to perform well in the playoffs), but I doubt it. He's petrified of the Lakers.

[Robz4000]

Luckily they won't be seeing them. Tbh Tony looks hobbled. It's the OKC game all over again.

[TDMVPDPOY]

lol fagots from upstairs coming down here with lame excuses

when he came back from injury he played against the clippers, he beasted cp3, everyone was on his nuttsack...only for him to return to the scrub he is after that game...

not shocked here. been saying this for years now. once he became our leader, we ain't won shit. he's real good in the regular season, but as the playoffs get near, he starts to choke.

Yeah, between his choking and Manu's fragility, I'm just about worn out with this shit, and don't really even care what the fuck happens with this team in the playoffs, unless they prove me wrong and at least challenge for a WCF berth, which seems about as probable as Kobe shooting a jumpshot tomorrow.

I really don't know what you are talking about tbh, he played well against the Lakers this year and made Blake his bitch. This game represents nothing for the Spurs and unless you are on crack you can see he is playing banged up. He should have sit the rest of the RS imho, it's stupid to play him right now.

Oh and unless I'm missing something I don't see the french faggot shitting the bed against the Lakers, in POs or in RS he is putting on them his season average. Petrified :lol by Blake / Nash ?

[midnightpulp]

Pick it up, faggot.

[TrainOfThought5]

we all know TP depends on his speed and athleticism more than Gino so an injury to parker is proportionately more severe to his game.

That's a straight out of NYC directive. Once Kobe went down the memo got writ. As soon as Gasol & Howard showed up in Game 1 and laid a double egg the memo was posted. They (Media) can't hold "Kobe" responsible, and they (Media) won't hold Gasol/Howard/Nash responsible. They'll (Media) wait till October and pick the scent up then.

I will wait road games before :lmao on the timdpoty and FkLA of the site. He was quite awful in the first half and then unload his shit all over the Lakers but he is still not 100%, he is slow at times but I liked the fact he is taking care of the ball and continues to take what defense is giving him. Spurs don't need 100% parker this serie but they will rely more on him in O for the games at staple.

Uh Parker hit the key 3 pointer - he will dominate Conley and whomever Heat throw at him in finals unless LeBron thrown on him - a matchup he is now experienced enough to exploit. Parker is a finals MVP and BS to all the haters of the proven PG whom is much more accomplished right now than any other PG in the league with 3 rings along with that finals MVP.

[TDMVPDPOY]

the big3 was utter shit for game 6, offensive game was shit, play making and defensive duties was utter shit allowing the warriors to sniff that ass like they had a chance to continue pushing shit back in....

wouldnt be playing like this if gino and parker started constipating then holding that shit back in for 46mins doing jackshit

wtf is parker always in whoevers grill late on the switch when this turd runs under the screen,

then again alot of the wankers on this board usually forgive a shit cunts performance as long they show up in the crucial last play of the game to steal a win...

[midnightpulp]

"You see, guys!? He's clutch! I can prove it."


Final possession, tied or down by no more than 3 points, which player should have the ball in their hands or take the last shot? Which player is more "clutch?"
Tony or Manu (For the sake of this thread we are not including Tim in this discussion)

According to Spursfan: Duncan and Manu (especially Manu) are the most "clutch" players on the Spurs. Tony is unreliable and not mentally tough enough to handle high-pressure situations. Fair enough. Let's compare the numbers over each player's career.

There are a few different ways to judge "clutchness" and people always argue over which parameters legitimately define clutch situations. That being said, I'm sure most everyone will agree that the most clutch situation in basketball is a game-winning or game-tying shot during the final possession.

Criteria:
- 24 seconds or less left in game (4th Quarter or Overtime)
- Spurs down by 3 points, 2 points, 1 point or tie game
- A made shot ties the game or takes lead
- Includes regular season and playoffs
- FTA include those taken while Spurs are down 1 point, 2 points or game is tied



http://img534.imageshack.us/img534/5813/tmcli.jpg

Manu is better at getting to the line - which has been fairly obvious. But other than that, I'm not exactly sure how he's a better option to have the ball for the last possession. Tony shoots better, distributes better and takes better care of the ball.

Final Totals in game-winning or tying situations:
Tony Parker: 30 points (two 3-pts), FG 36.8%, 7 assists, 1 TO
Manu Ginobili: 27 points, FG 25.6%, 4 assists, 4 TO

:lol at _Jag having a bigger mancrush on Parker than Kool has on Kobe (or Fpoonsie has on you).

Your takes are shit and you ride an emotional roller-coaster going back and forth with your opinions. You're the quintessential GNSF.

Parker will always have his defenders, no matter how much heroball shit he puts out. Least he scored that 3 and didn't totally shit the bed. That's the most we can hope for with Parker, just don't shit the beds in the playoffs. Least we have Kawhi to salvage his shit. Without Kawhi, we easily lose this one because of Parker and Gino.

Yes, because mono is the first person in human history to use the word "vanilla" to describe something that is unremarkable and bland. I ain't telling you anything that you haven't heard before.

what's your hate for Bonner? he disappears in playoffs but not like Parker steps it up in the playoffs all the time. I wish Bonner wasn't so soft but he's done marginally better these playoffs.

[FkLA]

_JaG is a huge Parker knobslobber. I dont even think Brazil gets this upset about Parker threads tbh. :lol

The funny thing is he talks shit about me or mid bumping our own threads but he was bumping my thread to 'laugh' at me every other game, which is the frequency at which a supposed MVP candidate decided to show up this series. There is plenty of evidence to support the fact that Parker disappears in the playoffs btw...his shot simply is too inconsistent for him to consistently play at an elite level. Its not that fucking hard to pack the paint on him and when that happens his shot is either hit or miss. The fact that he rarely has an impact in other areas when hes off makes me dislike him that much more.

[FkLA]

For all of the shit people talk about Bonner's defense... well, Tony Parker makes Matt Bonner look like Bruce Bowen, without a doubt. The guy is awful on defense. In this series, they just threw the ball to whoever Parker was guarding and said, here, score on this guy... he can't D up on anybody.

Thats exactly what I said, this series was probably the worst stretch of defense Ive ever seen Parker play. Didnt matter if he was guarding Curry, Jack, Thompson, or Barnes all of them were abusing him tbh. Ask Parker nuthuggers like _JaG though. and hell tell you it was done to tire Parker out on the other end and that it showed how much attention needed to be put on him. Or something along the lines of 'its not his fault he cant guard players that are taller than him'. :lol

Parker played well half this series and like absolute shit the other half. Hes the only 'MVP candidate' Ive ever seen that can prove his haters wrong by playing well half the time tbh. BTW this is my first post in this thread, I wanted to believe in Frenchie this season but it looks like hes resorted to his inconsistent bullshit in the playoffs per par:


Meh, its a regular season game and the appeal of this game took a huge hit when The King and co. sat it out. Not a Parker fan but hes been pretty good this regular season tbh. Still waiting for him to step up in the playoffs though...his disappearing acts in the postseason are well chronicled. He was nowhere to be found in 14 of the last 16 quarters during last years backdoor sweep. PJax neutralized him all the time too.

boiled down dummie, Parker is the leader of the Spurs and he carried his team to a WCF, that's mission accomplished for the Spurs and for him. He never had so many responsibilities in O and he delivered. Your Parker is soft card is ridiculous.
There is no disappearing shit in POs: he is doing what he is supposed to do so far, 22 ppg 6 assists 2 t/o wich is in line with his RS, he is banged up but doesn't complain and puts tons of energy every night, he spent GS serie to defend young taller guys and he stayed with his guys while carrying the load in O. He has been decisive on the pivotal games of the serie and showed guts. All that for 12 MUSD paycheck a year. that's a pretty good return for the Spurs compared to the rest of the league.

:cry "jag hates me" :cry

Quit being an emo GNSF. I don't hate you, I usually just try to ignore you now. You became a laker-obsessed GNSF who doesn't know what to post about now that Culburn is gone. You pulled up a thread I started in 2009 to prove Tony is my favorite player? :lol

Your takes are shit and you ride an emotional roller-coaster going back and forth with your opinions. You're the quintessential GNSF.

didn't mid call Harden the best shooting guard in the league and Curry's game against the Knicks the greatest offensive performance of the decade? also pretty much had the lakers beating us in the series now dubbed as the sweep (sorry ClipperNation, our sweep was better). emotional roller coaster indeed. parker had several huge 4th quarters this season, and Mid put this up after 1 or 2 poor showings

[AaronY]

Too much hyperbole and drama on these fucking forums sonetimes..from what I've read both mp and _Jag are funny, intelligent posters so its kind of lame to see them each trying to act like other is a worthless shitbag for whatever reason..same thing with that Jason Collins thread, DPG, _Jag, and Blake who are all funny intelligent literate posters sat around calling each other retards because they disagreed on some issue and wanted to make each other look bad..

Has he or has he not played well only half the time these playoffs? I dont care what his averages are. They were fine in 2011 as well but that doesnt mean Conley didnt make him his little hoe. Timmy has carried the team this far, not Tony...hes been the only consistent performer this postseason and so far the best player on the team for this playoff run. Im sorry but playing well every other game doesnt get it done, its not good enough to be an MVP candidate or a leader of a WCF team.

Im sorry but playing well every other game doesnt get it done, its not good enough to be an MVP candidate or a leader of a WCF team.

Timmy is obviously key on what the Spurs are doing even if against GS Timmy has struggled on O and on D and saying he has the only consistent performer is foolish. Like it or not, this is Parker team.

MVP candidate is for RS, in RS before his injury there is no question about the fact he was in the conversation to be in the top 5, he finished 6th IIRC and probably would have finished a bit higher without his injury and Spurs loosing the second seed. So yeah his RS was good enough to be a top 3 to 5 MVP candidate. During these POs nobody is so far saying he is dominant or something.

Also like it or not, he is the leader of a WCF team, there is a reason why teams concentrate their O and D on him, if you take Parker out of the equation, you increase a lot your chance to defeat the Spurs. He was also arguably the leader in 2012 POs too.

Now before you go apshit again. Yes west is weak and we are lucky to go against a depleted laker team, GS is nice and all they fought well but they are a limited PO team. Real test will be Grizz. Yes he has been a bit irregular in his performance but at least he has been key / clutch and contributed on each and every game and played his ass off even if he is not 100%.
Considering the circumstances he has done what was expected no more no less.

Saying that, Spurs won't get a ring like that and I fear they won't pass Memphis (btw you pick the spurs to win, I guess you are confident than I am on his capacities). That's not a hit to Parker, he is just not a franchise type of player capable to bring his team to ring and guess what ? he is not receiving the kind of salary reserved for this kind of player. Now Parker 12 M is still better than the majority of the guys that have bigger contract.

[lefty]

bah

We'll need everybody if we want to win the title


The great thing about game 6 vs GSW is that we won despite the big 3 not being dominant

Championship teams need role players to step up for them in the playoffs

[FkLA]

Timmy is obviously key on what the Spurs are doing even if against GS Timmy has struggled on O and on D and saying he has the only consistent performer is foolish. Like it or not, this is Parker team.

How the hell is it foolish? Who else has performed well consistently in the playoffs? Certainly not Parker or Manu. And this has been Timmys team in the playoffs, he has been the best player and led us this far in the playoffs. For the RS you can say it was Parker.

So yeah his RS was good enough to be a top 3 to 5 MVP candidate. During these POs nobody is so far saying he is dominant or something.

Im aware its a RS award that wasnt the point. The point is when was the last time a top MVP candidate proved his haters wrong by performing well only 50% in the playoffs? Can you imagine if Paul, Rose, or some other PG did that...his RS MVP candidacy would be considered a farce.


Also like it or not, he is the leader of a WCF team, there is a reason why teams concentrate their O and D on him, if you take Parker out of the equation, you increase a lot your chance to defeat the Spurs. He was also arguably the leader in 2012 POs too.

If you take a starter out of the equation you increase the chances of defeating a team? Groundbreaking analysis there, Brazil. Of course Id rather have Parker over Joseph or Neal at PG...but that doesnt mean hes been the best player on the team in the playoffs. Or that hes the leader. Timmy is still the one turning in solid performances on a consistent basis.


Now before you go apshit again. Yes west is weak and we are lucky to go against a depleted laker team, GS is nice and all they fought well but they are a limited PO team. Real test will be Grizz. Yes he has been a bit irregular in his performance but at least he has been key / clutch and contributed on each and every game and played his ass off even if he is not 100%.
Considering the circumstances he has done what was expected no more no less.

You expected him to play well in the playoffs about 50% of the time and play some of the worst defense of his career? Im a 'Parker hater' and even I expected more out of him tbh. I expected him to crumble up eventually against physical competition but not against the fucking Warriors tbh.


Saying that, Spurs won't get a ring like that and I fear they won't pass Memphis (btw you pick the spurs to win, I guess you are confident than I am on his capacities). That's not a hit to Parker, he is just not a franchise type of player capable to bring his team to ring and guess what ? he is not receiving the kind of salary reserved for this kind of player. Now Parker 12 M is still better than the majority of the guys that have bigger contract.

So he is not a franchise type player capable of bringing his team to a ring but when he gets a bunch of MVP love and attention you have no problem praising him? So in other words when hes playing well you suck him off and when he falls flat on his face you just give him a pass because its not his fault hes not good enough. :lol

tim plays amazing he is of course one of the main reason of spurs going in wcf but he hasn't been consistently good the whole games during these pos that's foolish to say

He was 7-13 for 19 pts and had 6 rebs and 3 blocks in 32 mins that game. Are you really going to try to spin that and try to say that he sat out the 4th because he was playing terrible? :lol

Either way though, Ill give you that game even though thats BS and Ill simply ask you this...who has been the Spurs most consistent player this postseason ?

"Purveyor of snark"..perhaps a good custom user title maybe..

Props to Tony :tu

The paint should open up for him next game since Memphis will probably commit extra effort to guarding the 3 point line after today's shooting performance.

[HI-FI]

Parker played very well. Both him and Bonner were stepping up when it mattered most. Hopefully both can build on this.

[FkLA]

The pattern continues. One game the fanboys bump these threads and the next theyre nowhere to be seen. Like I said Tony is the first all-nba, MVP candidate Ive seen that proves his doubters wrong by playing well 50% of the time. :toast Heres to hoping Tony becomes more consistent though, I want him to make me eat crow tbh.

Yes!!!!!!!!!!!

That is the game I have been waiting on for about 5 years. That "transcendent" superstar performance that wills the team to victory when everyone else is tight.

Parker is the fuckin' man. And I pledge here on out to never shit on him again.

I promise.

Not at all. I get legitimately pissed when Parker has a breakout game and then follows those up with two or three mediocre games. Or plays well for 2 and 1/2 quarters and then fades late. It's frustrating because you want so bad for Tony to make the transition from star to superstar, which he's teased us Spurs fan with multiple times.

This series, it finally happened. 24.5 and 9 on over 50% shooting against the best defensive backcourt in the league who has the best interior defense in the league behind them. You can't ask for a better performance than that.

Do you expect him to put up those numbers against Miami? Spurs owned the Grizz, and TP played well, but i credit the series win more for the shutting down of Z Bo IMHO, thats was the real difference maker. He was the focus of the Spurs D (well done Pop) and it worked flawlessly.

I expect him to have a good (maybe even great) series against Miami. They have no shotblocking and Chalmers/Hobbled Wade aren't better perimeter defenders than Conley/Allen. George Hill, a much less skilled PG than Parker, is averaging 14 points on 48 percent shooting in the series. Also worth noting is Parker won't have to expend much energy on the defensive end guarding Chalmers. He should excel.

Spurs don't match up too badly with the Heat, but the reason they're a big underdog is because they don't have Lebron (and if Wade returns to form, then it's lights out). Simple as that.

As I mentioned in another thread, Elias Sports reports that Tony's accomplishment for WCF is second only to Jerry West in 1972.

That is right. Tony had something like 98 points and 38 assists over the four games against Memphis. The only other player in NBA History with numbers like that for a four game sweep of best-of-seven series was the Lakers' own Jerry West, who had 114 points and 40 assists int e Laker's sweep against the Bulls in t4eh Western Conference Semifinals in 1972!!

That's right. Over the entire series - not one game or one quarter - the best since Jerry West in a four game sweep wasn't your beloved Magic or Kareem or Kobe and it wasn't LeBron - it was Tony Parker and you just saw it happen!

So you credit what you want where you want it...but the facts will remain the same.


And no, I don't expect him to put up numbers like that against Miami (if that is who we play) because Miami has probably the best pick and roll defense in the league today. But NONE of that reality takes away who Tony is today and what he meant to this team in this series.

Why are we even talking about George Hill, Miami is in the finals, lets not get carried away.As for Parkers Defense, spurs play team D, the hardest part of playing D for Parker is probably just chasing people through screens. Hes probably conditioned to do that. I agree, spurs do match up well to a certain point, but what will happen if lets say Lebron picks up TP, which is a possibility...

Hey man, i do enjoy a good history lesson :toast I didnt bag on TP once, in fact I might go as far as saying that was the best series and game I have watched him play. But this was a defensive minded series, It was about who shut down who. The spurs had more weapons, and played better D period.

You're right. It was a good read. They (Miami) are better at defending it than most others. We (Spurs) are better at running it than most others, with more disguised setups, etc. than most. However, when teams disrupt our offensive flow by jamming our passing lanes and going after the pick and roll passes, we can look awful in a real big hurry.

It will be interesting to watch it play out, tbh.

Thanks for the reference.

Miami is a swarming defensive team. Memphis showed us that if you pressure the Spurs, and hound them defensively like the first quarter of game 3, they can be rattled, and dig them selves a big hole. None the less I still want to see a good/entertaining series. good luck stay classy :toast
