Where does he rank among "Spurs killers" in NBA history?

He had a very poor regular season, the worst of his career, yet you would never know it if you watched him against the Spurs:lol..he has owned the Spurs throughout his career, regardless of SA's personnel..

[Holden_Caulfield]

right next to devin harris tbh

[sexinthatsx]

Right next to all the other scrubs that goes off against the Spurs tbh...
Davin Harris
JJ Barea
Goran Dragic during his scrub days on the Suns
Austin Rivers
the list goes on

[playblair]

simmons has to cojo ibaka he would lose confidence .......................

[BG_Spurs_Fan]

They guard him almost like Tony Allen. Let him chuck 3s, at some point they'll dry up.

[timtonymanu]

Seriously. This isn't even a series if Ibaka was playing at his regular level.

This asshole better be secretly interested in playing for the Spurs so that's why he's overconfident. :lol

[capek]

But only 5 rebounds. He's gotta cool off at some point, and hopefully when he does he keeps chucking and doesn't start crashing the offensive glass.

[Mugen]

This nigga hasn't missed a shot against the Spurs in the playoffs in 5 years. I think he looks over at Pop and he sees a Big Game Hunter that wiped out his village's food source tbh.

Dude shot 32% 3 pointers during the regular season. Hits 10/17 against the Spurs...

[Seventyniner]

NEVER FORGET

[urunobili]

I'm fearful he'll sustain this TBH

[MI21]

He is having a Derek Fisher 01 series at this point, tbh

I wish I killed him in Far Cry when I had the chance

[LongtimeSpursFan]

He doesn't clog the paint like he use to.

[Mr. Body]

This dude and Devin Harris. It's nuts. I don't expect him to slow down against us. He never has.

[HarlemHeat37]

He doesn't clog the paint like he use to.

This is true, but it kind of makes him even more of a Spur killer(not as a player on the court, but just on the list of "Spurs Killers") if you look at it from a different POV..he's declining as a rim protector and no longer a defensive force, which should make him virtually ineffective in this series, overall, except he has somehow developed the 3-point shot of Ray Allen to negate some of his defensive decline:lol

[Keepin' it real]

Who's gonna defeat Serge?

Doesn't matter, Parker doesn't drive to the rim anymore. If he could this would be a short series.

:depressed

[spursparker9]

tbh Bonner defended him pretty well in 2014

[TheGreatYacht]

Kawhi and Cojo still give him nightmares. He's not the blocking factor he used to be, Kawhi owns him.

Also, him and Adams got away with tons of fouls on Aldridge, getting away with elbows and karate chops like they're Dramond Green

[Floyd Pacquiao]

Some of the 3s he hit with Aldridge in his face was just bullshit.

[Chris]

Up there with a Jason Terry for sure

[Kawhitstorm]

He had a very poor regular season, the worst of his career, yet you would never know it if you watched him against the Spurs:lol..

His TS was 76% against the Mavs.

As far as Spurs killers from the PF position, he's the new version of New Orleans David West.

Too soon.

[rasuo214]

TheGreatYacht will probably disagree but Pop should put Anderson on him. If they aren't going to play Timmy and Diaw isn't being effective then the next best option is Anderson. Plus Anderson is a better rebounder than West and Diaw.

[noles1983]

fuck that mandingo, pos only shows up vs spurs

Spurs killer who LMA is shooting like 60 percent against? I'll take it.

[Slippy]

Threes hurt. Impact he has on defense hardly the same. Spurs will live with it and adjust.

Less cheating from LA

[polandprzem]

Reggie jackson
James harden
Derek Fisher

[DJR210]

Crazy how 2-3 years ago, dude was probably the most feared interior defender we matched up with in the playoffs.. LMA has done a great job when guarded by Ibaka.. I can't remember an Ibaka block so far this series.. Regardless, props to Ibaka on improving his 3 point shooting, dude is a legit 3 point threat now.

[JR3]

It's unreal....if he cools off at all, we will win this in 5.

[kaji157]

I think Aldridge is giving hima ton of room not being particularly good with the help defense.

Kind of that LMA is in the middle of the ocean sometimes, not in position to help the defender on the penetration but still giving ibaka ton of room to shoot.

Seems to be "by design" as most in and out game from OKC is with him, probably we will adjust on him as a surprise on a close game later in the series, it is very obvious for pop and the team to not see that.

Josh Howard was the real killer on those Mavs teams, tbh

But Terry was the dick puncher.

[313]

I prefer the Ibaka that makes 3s but plays soft defense, then 2012-14 Ibloka scaring the fuck out of Parker, etcYou realize ibaka shooting more threes and him playing defense can be mutually exclusive? His "decline has nothing to do with him shooting threes, and everything to do with the increase of small ball and stretch 4s across the league taking him out of the paint.

[james evans]

He's being left wide open. I don't know why people expect him to miss

[myhc]

The level of racism in this thread is fucked up.

[noles1983]

The level of racism in this thread is fucked up.

nah you're just soft

[Spurtacular]

Where does he rank among "Spurs killers" in NBA history?

Not that high. The sixth, seventh and eighth man (along with Harden) inflicted the fatal blows in 2013.

[Spurtacular]

Seriously. This isn't even a series if Ibaka was playing at his regular level.

This asshole better be secretly interested in playing for the Spurs so that's why he's overconfident. :lol

Spurs are focusing on Westbrook and Durant and making the role players have to do enough to win. Ibaka's output is not that unexpected.

Yep..a 32% 3-point shooter shooting 59% from 3(on 5 attempts per game, too, crazy volume:wow) in this series was totally expected:lol

[spursfaninla]

Yep..a 32% 3-point shooter shooting 59% from 3(on 5 attempts per game, too, crazy volume:wow) in this series was totally expected:lol

This. We will survive with him shooting a little bit better from 3, being completely wide open, but doubling his normal point output will not be good.

[Spurtacular]

Yep..a 32% 3-point shooter shooting 59% from 3(on 5 attempts per game, too, crazy volume:wow) in this series was totally expected:lol

He's getting the looks. Have Westbrook and Durant dominated like in the regular season? Don't pretend there's not give and take.

[Darius Bieber]

Derek Fisher ranks first amongst Spurs killers tbh.... Shits the bed playing against anyone else, but against the Spurs he kills.... Even when he was coaching the Knicks. :lol

[J_Paco]

I prefer the Ibaka that makes 3s but plays soft defense, then 2012-14 Ibloka scaring the fuck out of Parker, etc

Exactly, he isn't nearly the paint presences on defense that he was 2 or 3 years ago. He seems to be a lot more selective going for blocks which is strange cause that intimidation factor was huge for him/them not too long ago.

The two greatest "Spurs killers" of all-time are easily Kobe Bryant and Dirk Nowitzki. After them it's a jumbled up group that includes Robert Horry (main reason why I hated him before '04), James Harden, Derek Fisher, Ray Allen, Bonzi Wells, Shaquille O'Neal and a few other players, IMO. Kobe and Dirk deserve the highest spots and most praise.

[timtonymanu]

Thank the Oklahoma City Thunder for trading him to the East because this guy is still a nightmare to the Spurs.
