Not better than Kawhi or Aldridge obviously. Probably not as good as Gasol. . .better than Mills easily and I would say better than Manu honestly but not by a lot. Green. . .it's an argument. Shit offense Green like last year? Yeah TP is better.

#4 on team I'd say.

He apparently was when you were wanting LMA to take a backseat to him, faggot.

Not that I care about this thread but scoring ain't the whole game.

The question is silly. I'd say he's tier two or three equal to green in skill and usage. Obv not an all star candidate and somewhat one sided....aka a role player.


Kawhi, lma, pau are pretty much on the same level until we see the new offense.


Also for apo and dabom, don't forget dedmon. If your going to say mills is better (a very limited player with no upside) might as well include s a big with upside.
Also, I think it's very obvious that unless MILLS has a breakout resurgence then Kyle> Patty

Average of last three playoffs. Patty IS WAY BETTER THAN TONY. No ifs about that.


And lol at anyone thinking fathead even comes close to Patty Thrills. :lmao

It's not whether Parker can be effective offensively anymore. It's about how the game flows when he's on the court. If he didn't just dribble until there's 5 seconds left on the shot clock, and actually move the ball, I think we might be able to live with him on the team. This has been a trend since the 2013-2014 season. I think he's the issue as to why we had so many slow starts last season. Sure he might be a better PG than Mills, but I think we all see that the team is way more fluid when Mills is out there instead of Parker.

Kawhi
Gasol
LMA
Tony

Top 4 player.

Kawhi, LA, Gasol, and Green are all clearly more important than Tony at this point.

Tony should be the clear number 5, but unfortunately he sucks major ass right now. Mills and Manu could easily be argued to be > than him.

The Bat Loco Bash is set for August 11 from 6-9 p.m. to close out the series with a celebration of live music, booths, and children’s activities, all of which are free to the public.
Parking for the event series is available at the Hwy. 281 underpass on Newell St. and Avenue A.
The intersection of Camden and Newell streets will be closed down during each of the events, and attendees are encouraged to bring chairs and get comfortable for the lecture series from 7:30 to 9 p.m. before the bats take off around 9 p.m. The series has grown quite the following over the years, starting off with about 50 people total in 2011 and now expecting up to 700 people per evening.

Damn, 36 year-old Gasol is already the second best player on the Spurs? This team is fucked. :lol

Agree. I've said the same thing in other thread.

I don't care about Parker's ppg, hopefully for Spurs' sake he doesn't care about it either.

I'm concerned about other aspects of his game at this point of his career. He's our starting PG but doesn't have a set of special skills to be a true playmaker, and his defense is far below average among elite PGs.

I don't get why Pau is our 2nd best player...LMA was great later in the season, and I'd wait to see Gasol on the court/his chemistry with the rest of the guys, before saying how good he is as Spur.

Agree. It's a problem. I think even fans who are neutral towards him are starting to consider that we are really not championship contenders so long as he's starting.

He had a few elite skills: his quickness, stamina and aggressiveness getting in the paint and scoring efficiently. Without the first two things which aging has taken, the third is useless as he can't be consistent and he doesn't bring enough of the other things. I don't like to hate on Tony since he's not the only aged guard that Pop over-relies on however.

It really should be on others more at this point, but it will take some youngsters forcing themselves into the scene with their talent like Kawhi did for Pop to move on. I think Dijon has that personality and talent but he's a kid right know literally, and raw. Kyle OTOH is the most Spursy guy Spurs could have drafted ever. He will only push when Pop asks him to push. If he's asked to be 10th fiddle in the team when he could do more that's what he'll do. It's on Pop and his process at this point. Hopefully these young guys grow up through the season and next off-season Pop and RC go after a FA but I almost feel like they won't bc just resigning guys already in this squad will eat up cap.

I feel like it will really take some internal growth by younger guys at this point to push the Spurs forward further the same way Kawhi did at one point. Maybe Gasol helps this season but they will need Anderson in the bench to grow up this season too and one of Simmons or Bertans to help too.
