Tony Parker is the Worst Point Guard in the Playoffs

[poeticism707]

Cut him in the offseason, and resign him for the vet min.

TP looks like 40 year old trash.

If old Manu and TD didn't bail him out per par,

our season would be on the brink.

Oh, and this is "rested" TP.

[ThePop]

He's hurt.

[DieHardSpursFan1537]

Here we go again with the cliff jumping.

[freetiago]

Dont worry Spurfan he only wants to play 7 more years

and its not cliff jumping when a slashing guard cant blow by _irk and averages 3 points in the second half throughout 4 games

[ElNono]

Resting for the summer...

:lol someone didn't watch Jeremy Lin last game

[808]

CIA Parker, getting the defense to forget about him for game 5

[cjw]

Umm take a look across the bracket at the other #1 seed. He was Parker's backup for a reason.

[poeticism707]

:rollin:rollin:rollin

TP couldn't play 7 more minutes tonight!

LOL @ more years!

[AFBlue]

It's really concerning tbqh. I said all along that Tony Parker's legs would be the key to a championship run. That's why I was praying for an injury earlier this year. Pop did give him a few days, but it clearly wasn't enough. Struggling against the Mavs isn't a good sign going forward tbqh.

[ElNono]

He gotta be hurting... I can't think it's just mental at this point...

[apalisoc_9]

STFU

[AFBlue]

Hurting, or just flat out tired.

Clearly not himself.

[siraulo23]

[vander]

well on the bright side, I've heard that point guards don't win championships

[AFBlue]

He's our D Wade in these playoffs. Unfortunately, we need him to be our LeBron.

:lol

fuck the Spurs, FIBA is where it's at.

[IrisHockey]

:lmao when has Wade ever been taken advantage of defensively?

[G-Dawgg]

The Spurs will only go as far as Parker can take them. In comparison, Calderon's timely shooting has been much scarier than Parker's...

[SupremeGuy]

Seriously, you are absolutely right. If Pop doesn't start Patty next game, we're going to start the game in a hole.

Parker this year, is basically Manu from last year's finals.

[KaiRMD1]

I'm just glad Patty was playing with renewed vigor but Tony is not the worst guard in these playoffs. How's George Hill doing?

[hater]

NOT REALLY. PARKER HAS BEEN MEDIOCRE THOU. STILL HE IS USABLE AND A DECENT PG. HE HAS NOT BEEN STARTING MATERIAL THOU. I STILL HAVE FAITH IN MVPARKER.

[freetiago]

Parker has torn to shreds the Mavs in the first quarter
they put up the stat right before the game
averaging something like 15 points on 60% shooting in first halfs and 3 points on 30% shooting in second halfs

hes just quitting on the team tbh..
no other explanation

[ElNono]

NOT REALLY. PARKER HAS BEEN MEDIOCRE THOU. STILL HE IS USABLE AND A DECENT PG. HE HAS NOT BEEN STARTING MATERIAL THOU. I STILL HAVE FAITH IN MVPARKER.

:lol what's with the caps?

I though you wondered if Parker bet to lose this game? :lol

[DarrinS]

[DarrinS]

Parker is sucking ass, tbh

[DarrinS]

I think he's hurt, tbh

[Prose]

We shouldnt cut him....I just think heis gasses after last years finals run and off season. You can see he doesn't have it in his legs when he attacks the rim. Plus he is getting to that age where many players production drops off. Players like Tim adjust their game and lifestyle (during the off season) to maximize their career and have a renaissance. Also manu has hinted at playing for Argentina this summer. "I still feel a part of that team" so we should enjoy this manu while we can. Not playing this summer in the south american cup is paying off.

[Trill Clinton]

not the worst pg in the playoffs, stop it. he obviously struggles going against sf's and he is relying on the outside jumper too much. i don't know why he wont just put his head down and use his quickness to get to the rack. if it was him being hurt, i can understand, but its obvious its all in his head at this point.

He's probably fatigued imo...I know he was out for a stretch in the regular season, but he's been balling all year long (the NBA finals + FIBA basketball)

[Trill Clinton]

if he is hurt, then he shouldn't be playing and pop shouldn't be running plays for him. he looks mentally checked out...but he might be fatigued. if so, that's his fault for coming back so quick after he was supposed to be out for at least a month, but patty was ballin' so hard that tony couldn't sit back at let patty get his shine on without coming back and reminding him who the true alpha ishttp://i58.tinypic.com/2ms0f39.jpg

i fux with tony, but he needs to check his ego and get his head out his ass.

[gilmor]

Who gives a fuck.. We win the game..

Seriously Parker is worse than Deron Williams?

[Kidd K]

We were killing the Mavs 'til he rolled his ankle. Then what happened? Oh yeah, our offense imploded until he came back near the end when his ankle got a little better.

GTFO with this bullshit.

No, I think if we're looking for the Worst Point Guard in these playoffs, it's probably Hill... Deron isn't playing that bad.

I think Tony is hurt (and more than just that ankle sprain today). Either that or just completely fatigued. We probably won't know, but this isn't "normal" Parker...

Hope he hasn't lost a step...

[Kidd K]

lolwut? Parker killed us and basically gave the Mavs momentum two different fucking times this game. He's playing like crap, and should be treated as such.

You have a garbage memory.

We were up 12 when Parker was pulled in the 3rd. He comes back in much later and it's a 2 possession game already. He only plays a few minutes on the bad ankle and the lead only dwindles by two points in that span. The Spurs only score 2 points over he nex few minutes without him. When he finally comes back in the game's tied, he plays the rest of the way and we win by 4.

So what momentum did he give the Mavs besides by getting hurt? We lose this series badly without Parker. You need to learn and understand that players can positively effect games without getting stats. The pressure Parker puts on the opposing team helps the rest of the Spurs a lot.

Basing on the amount of bashing and negativity at this web-site, we are all better off (happier) for trading him.. so that the bashing will subside..

Are you guys fucking serious :lmao

There is a certain PG on the rockets that is up for the worst PG to EVER play in a playoff series... with crucial mistakes during the final minutes of everyone of the last 3 games. Don't take TP for granted.

This. Lin has been so cancerous for Houston this series that most Rockets fans I know already want Daniels to replace him.

I won't be surprised if Parker erupts for 30 in Game 5. I also won't be surprised if he doesn't.

Tony taking a page from Kobe's book and exaggerating minor injuries to cover for his poor performances.

[BatManu20]

Gotta be injured tbh. I mean he even looks significantly slower out there than in recent memory. Sucks because without him playing at a high level, the Spurs don't have a legitimate shot at winning a title tbh. But let's make it out of the first round before we get into that tbh.

[SupremeGuy]

So should we trade Parker.. since he really fucks up the whole team? How bout Parker for Lin? Then you get the china market as a plus..Parker for 2 1st rounds would be excellent.

[siraulo23]

Obviously he's hurt, but how is he still not healthy? He had that rest period in the RS and played few mins when he did play, another question is why didnt pop rest him more if he wasnt 100%? Was it an injury that takes a month or so without any basketball activities at all to fully recover from?

[Venti Quattro]

[Tim_5rings]

Seriously, you are absolutely right. If Pop doesn't start Patty next game, we're going to start the game in a hole.

Parker this year, is basically Manu from last year's finals.


Patty whithout Manu ,Patty is useless (start middle of 4th Qt lineup Patty Danny, Kawhi, Boris, Timmy) no creation, no playmaking, bad shot... he's not a true PG
He's just a shooter (a very good one but a streaky one)

[Cowboys_Wear_Spurs]

He gotta be hurting... I can't think it's just mental at this point...

He's not that hurt IMO. He was just forcing crap last night. Almost cost the Spurs the game. If not for Manu the Spurs would have lost, ironic huh.

Parker needs to become more of a passing PG in this series. That last 3 by Diaw saids it all. The Mavs have been collapsing Parker the last two games and he needs to become a pass first PG at this point b/c someone is going to be opened.

[spurspokesman]

Parker has been a roller coaster in the playoffs his entire career as most spurs fans know. He has been known to go soft in the big moments

[bd_monster]

TBH Parker thinking hes some spring chicken, playing year round for basically every year of his career has made him like this. He has the miles of a 36 year old PG and in Pops motion offense, the PG has to run so much and be so active it wears him down quickly. Yes he may be hurt but hes been dragging ass all year. The bench has been hiding Parkers regression, Im not saying he cant revive his career but the dude needs a break.

[servalli]

Parker sucks

[Rick Von Braun]

Cut him in the offseason, and resign him for the vet min.

TP looks like 40 year old trash.

If old Manu and TD didn't bail him out per par,

our season would be on the brink.

Oh, and this is "rested" TP.

He is playing pretty bad, but definitely not the worst! I have seen *all games* in the playoffs so far, except for the Miami-Bobcats series, and I would say there are definitely worse PGs with big responsibilities... e.g. of the top of my head, Jeremy Lin and George Hill are playing worse than TP, to name a few.

Out of the 32 PG playing in the playoffs that play more than 9 MPG, Tony ranks currently 19th (http://insider.espn.go.com/nba/hollinger/statistics/_/position/pg/seasontype/3). His PER is 14.29, below average player replacement value.

His most noticeable drop has been on the defensive end, he is actually a liability right now. Calderon has been torching him left and right, while in the past TP would have eaten him for breakfast.

I think his bad play is magnified by him being more important and taking a larger share of the team's load. He is currently 4th out 32nd out of all PGs in the playoffs in usage rate (http://insider.espn.go.com/nba/hollinger/statistics/_/position/pg/sort/usageRate/seasontype/3), and only Westbrook, D.J. Augustin and Jeff Teague have the ball in their hands more. Patty Mills is also playing like crap, but at the same time he is just a secondary player on the team.

All in all, the Spurs are in control. They took homecourt advantage back, and despite one of the big three no playing well, they can take a commanding league the next game at home. I would expect Tony to get out of his funk and get back to a PER around ~17 in the postseason. On the defensive end, he needs to put more effort and decide more intelligently and faster when to go under/over the screens and not go through the motions like a regular season game. When fighting the screens, he should try harder. On offense, he just needs to stay aggressive and pick his moments. He'll be all right.

[cheguevara]

the TP hate has always been there, even when he was a young 19 year old toddler.

It was even stronger when there was a big argentine compendium of posters here that claimed he was not passing the ball to Manu :lol

it is what it is. Parker is probably a top tier PG. Can you imagine what this team would be like if we had say George Hill instead? :lol

[hater]

Parker has been a roller coaster in the playoffs his entire career as most spurs fans know. He has been known to go soft in the big moments

except a minute left in game 6 when he made a step back 3, stole the ball and scored a basket to put spurs up to clinch the championship

:lmao then Pop and Manu crashed the bus as it was pulling into its victory lap :lol

[superjames1992]

Tony taking a page from Kobe's book and exaggerating minor injuries to cover for his poor performances.
Just like in the finals last year, tbh........

Manu's hamstring was probably acting up throughout last year's playoffs, but you didn't see him blame it on that crap. Tony's a warrior! :cry

[superjames1992]

And in that same game if it weren't for Parker's 6-23 clunker, the Spurs would have cruised to an easy win, tbh.

What can you say? The dude was trying to hero his way to a FMVP. :toast

[Kidd K]

Didn't bother reading your garbage, because if you can't fucking see that Parker fucked us over hard, then there's no point in having a discussion. Opinions man, they're different.

I'm not surprised you didn't bother reading it, seeing as how you probably didn't bother watching many Spurs games over the course of your life to know that Parker has been one of our best players for many a year, and that we wouldn't have won our last 3 titles or even been all that competitive over the last few years without him. We also won't be winning shit this year without him either.

Opinions are different though, I agree with that. Some are based on facts and some are just fuckin stupid.

But that doesn't change the fact he was trash most of the first round, and all most got the Spurs eliminated.

I didn't say he didn't play like trash. I said the primary reason that he played poorly in the first round was because he was struggling through injuries. His ankle injury and back problems weren't imaginary. He got off to good starts in several of the games against Dallas because he was fresh off treatment, but he wore down during games. Injuries aren't the only reason he wasn't at the top of the game, but it's crazy to think they weren't a factor. Just because the Spurs don't play the injury card doesn't mean injuries don't exist.

How are the Spurs going to win without Parker? The system is built around him. They barely beat a mediocre Mav team when TP went MIA in games 2-6. Needed big games from 26 year old Manu to avoid the upset. Everything is so much easier for the rest of the team when Parker decides to show up.

TP looks like 40 year old trash.

If old Manu and TD didn't bail him out per par,

Guess you can eat your words now, huh???

our season would be on the brink.

Oh, and this is "rested" TP.

Guess you can eat your words now........huh?:blah

Parker was awful last year..People forget, manu took over the playmaking role and that's why the spurs won last year..

At what point do spursfan just admit...

What's funny is that these types of threads are always full of "Spurs can't win if Parker doesn't get right", "Spurs go as far as Parker's health"..:lol ya, they won last year with this "injured" Parker..

1. So you think this year Parker is better than last?

2. And you think we would have won a championship without him?

My answers:

1. N

No, this year's Parker is a lot worse than last year, but the Spurs clearly won last year with an "injured" Parker..

[therealtruth]

If he decides to show up this could be a much easier series.

[itsamanuthree]

LOL great bump!

[Brazil]

Man... a lot of people wanted to share their thought with me in the Parker penetrating thread but it has been deleted before I could see it :depressed

[hater]

NOT REALLY. PARKER HAS BEEN MEDIOCRE THOU. STILL HE IS USABLE AND A DECENT PG. HE HAS NOT BEEN STARTING MATERIAL THOU. I STILL HAVE FAITH IN MVPARKER.

:tu on point as usual. Not missing a beat :lol

[G-Dawgg]

Not only is he the worst point guard, but doesn't he have the worst +/- out of EVERY player in the playoffs? I'm talking DEAD LAST. He better turn it around soon or the Spurs' championship hopes are all but done....

[HI-FI]

Parker is an antiquated phaggot tbh

[timtonymanu]

:lol Damn, I thought this was a new thread.

OP :worthy:

[lefty]

Obviously he's finally getting over some of injuries. I'm not sure how anyone couldn't see that he was hurting last series.

I expect that the OP will bump this with "I told you so" next time he has a bad game though.

The. more things change, the more they stay the same.

Even at 40, TD. is still top bailing out young TP.

If it wasn't for TD, Spurs would have 0 titles,

and be swept this year already.
