Tony=shit in the close out games of the last 3 series imho

Tony played like a PG but the times he went hero mode Pop took him out for Patty and it worked great, like the poster above said he was irrelevant but at least he played team ball so no damage at all.
:[email protected] any faggot hating on TP.
Uhhh NO! Every year after the season ST needs a scapegoat. Parker has been getting bashed more than Manu lately.
Thank you.Quote:

These guys are part of "OUR" team. Why not root for them, better yet you probably deserve to have Westbrook or Chris Paul as your point guard so you can be fulfilled.
still waiting for the ban tbh
Parker's play was inept, but it wasn't a net-negative the way Manu's play was in '13.
I ain't going as far as talking shit about TP, but his absence against OKC in the closeout did open my eyes a little bit. His new contract is pricey, but my real issue w/ that is thinking about that 3rd year with him making 14.3 mil.
And, people forget that we rode Tony like a dog throughout the season, played him too soon and too many minutes after a scheduled rest...and the results were a pulled hamstring, again.Quote:

I was watching game 5 again, and Manu was more impressive than I thought when watching it live.

I guess you haven't seen all the 3rd world Argentinians mad at the Spurs on ST or on twitter for resting Manu... :lolQuote:

You expect Tony to play well with few mistakes. When he is struggling it's obvious because you just expect him to always be playing at a very high level. He wasn't on his game in the post season this year due to his injuries. The close out games against both OKC and Miami were evidence of that. But he still played decently, considering.
Well, temovp isn't around anymore to regulate, apparently :lolQuote:

your statement is wrongPERIOD. Not sure why this thread became another TP/Manu thread tbh... TDMVPDPOY has not been banned because of TP trash talking but because he was trash talking every single thread and basically because you cannot understand what he is writing.
:lol @ koon the village idiot thinking it's a thread about me being mad

One year we lost, and the other year we won. One year, the player playing like garbage cost us a title, the other year, the player playing like garbage didn't cost us a thing.
I'm pretty sure if Parker had 8 turnovers in a series clincher, we would not have clinched.
That would be four series ago?Quote:

By that rationale, the game was already over at halftime, but the fact remains that Parker scored 14 points during a five minute stretch of a game they won by 17.Quote:

Manu vastly improved this year, but it can't be denied that we lost last year largely because of his sloppy play in game 7 last year.
Tony is a huge reason why we win, so the two have different impact level.
Interesting....I wasn't aware that only the first 36 minutes counted. You can't just ignore a quarter to support your argument :lol Parker slammed the door shut. And Mills made it rain 9-14 3's in Games 4 and 5Quote:

If he didn't score in double figures we probably would have lost by double digits. Duncan and Leonard were the offense in that game (Duncan, Leonard and Manu combined for 61 off our 88 points). Parker had only 10 points.
Tony and Manu help give the Spurs 4 NBA Titles and yet there are still fucking retards on this forum that still complain about stats. You all need to appreciate these guys a little more because the end of an era is getting really close!
Oh wait!
I forgot!!
TBH

Both Manu and Tony are top 5 Spurs players of all-time, tbh..
Manu was terrible in 2013 playoffs, so was Parker in the 2014 playoffs..the difference being that the Spurs won in 2014 due to having the deepest roster in league history, motivation from the 2013 loss, and getting hot at the right time..
Manu in 2013 received more attention because the Spurs lost, and because everybody(non-Spurs fans) was cheering against the Heat, leading to disappointment and anger towards the Spurs when they lost(and with Ginobli being the worst Spur in the Finals, he received the mainstream negative attention)..
Realistically, Parker was nearly as bad in the 2014 playoffs, but didn't get the attention for obvious reasons..I don't know why it's so difficult for people to admit that Tony played like ass in these past playoffs, it's not like Manu and Duncan haven't had poor playoff runs, as well..everybody has down years..
2013 Manu cost his team a championship.Quote:

Profit.
Not really..
If you replace 2014 Parker with 2013 Manu, Spurs still easily win the championship, especially because Miami was a lot worse than they were in 2013..
Mills, Diaw and Splitter being much improved in the playoffs made a massive difference, and Manu and Tony essentially swapped roles with each other from 2013 to 2014:lol..
Not quite, tbh.Quote:

You are absolutely right that our bench was superior this year and that made the biggest difference. That, and Miami really playing like they didn't care, except for LeBron.
It was a team loss last year and a team win this year.
:smokin
Manu will always get the blame for why the Spurs don't win the championship (whether it was from an injury or mistake) even though it's a team game and not enough credit for if we win.
Says a lot about st posters who need a scapegoat after winning the damn finals.Quote:

And if your Aunt had balls, she'd be your uncle.Quote:
