Yeah, I agree on this one, Pop is probably asking him to pass more. He had again 10 assists, that's nice.
As for himself, I dont know. He said that he wasnt recovered 100% and he does not score so much, like last season. He is probably trying to lead the team more and more, trying different things out with the all the new different players. When it's needed, he will score, like he did at the end of last season, and that makes me feel comfortable.
We need this guy, we cant afford playing without Tony.
Re: WTF is doing Pop with TP?
I didn't see that game. But 28 TO and a 20 point win suggest me the Bobcats were gambling a lot.
The Spurs have a problem with TO right now. This is not a surprise with a reshapped team.
But this should be something rather easy to improve with time.

No. The lead was once 22. It got cut to one by the end of the 3rd quarter mostly due to bad passes, sloppy dribbling and travelling violations like double dribbles.
Re: WTF is doing Pop with TP?
The sloppy play that led to most of the turnovers will no doubt get addressed and total TOs will return to "normal" levels. By then Parker will have learned to involve his teammates in the flow of the game while still remaining an offensive threat himself. Overall, good for the Spurs. Work-in-progress folks, bumpy ride ahead.

He just needs to not drive into double teams and end up throwing the ball away or get called for violations.
but but tony is selfish

yeah let's trade his ass right away
it is clearly impossible to win it all with such a selfish PG
Re: WTF is doing Pop with TP?
Take into account that the Bobcats are the 3rd best team in the league in defensive efficiency and I can see why TO's might have been a problem. Add to that Tony is redirecting his play to be more of a distributor and I can see why this might have esculated in this game.
I suspect once he becomes better at doing something he's rarely been asked to do the TO's will go down.

Not funny when you try baiting.
Still remember when we drafted the fantasy playoffs team? We were drafting for the present and future. I would bring up some of the players.
Bosh is having a great year statistically, but his team cannot defend. (Breakout year for Bosh.)
Bogut is having a breakout year as well.
Iggy has been performing well lately with AI, they have not been able to close out close games, damn.
Ramon Sessions is on the trading block, he was playing well though.
Marresse Spieghts, until he got hurt, was having an excellent year and pushing Brand out of his minutes.
Michael Beasley has improved on offense and defense.
Good old days.
Man, are we good at drafting or what? All off-topic though.

The fantasy drafting at 2,5 hands was fun indeed, I think our team would be very good. I remember you were high on Young and really this kid can play but your very good call was on Beasley, I drafted him on a fantasy team but I misread a report about his drug problems I thought he was out for a lot of weeks in rehab so I waived him a phenomenal mistake. :lol
