is the worst starting PG in the West Playoffs. He is also the reason we lost tonight.
he's among several of the reasons we lost tonight
lol
The sky darkens with his porking
32/7/6/2 on 73.5 TS% - Paul
10/2/1 on 42.1 TS% - Parker
:lol Spurs fans that think Parker owns Paul. Tony's extremely fortunate to have played on the superior teams. Like clockwork, he chokes in the playoffs once again while Paul elevates his performance.
He's probably also the reason Splitter's calf is fucked. Splitter, as well as KY and Verde have to cover a lot of ground for his mistakes, everybody on the roster does, dude gets beat on every possession.
His terrible defense makes everyone else exert a ton of energy, Splitter has to go out on the perimeter, guard the pick and roll, challenge whoever just blew by Parker, etc. Spurs would be much fresher w/out him.
Too much dead weight on the roster.
There isn't one thing he does for this team. It's really unbelievable how terrible he is.
lol trying to pin this loss all on Parker
13 points in 4 for cp3 stat padder
Parker makes everything more difficult for the Spurs. The team has to play at a ridiculous level to overcome that burden. His inefficient offense is even worse because Clippers run it down our throats.
Parker was bad, but not so much for his defense. No point guard in the NBA can keep Paul in front of them. But Tony had some terrible turnovers and just couldn't hit a shot.
For our sake, hopefully Enrique continues to be a cancer. I said before the series that we needed him to go full Enrique to have a chance and he did it tonight.
:lol that ball movement though
Yup. Look at the shooting numbers from last season's playoffs. Parker's the only rotation player that shot worse than league average(.541) in the post season:

He's a playoff choke artist. Always has been. Always will be.
In case anyone is wondering about the significance of this chart. If you look at the mid-range area you'll see the bulk of Tony Parker's shots. The value of those are worse the Deandre Jordan's fts. Every time he takes one it's like us hacking Jordan but a little worse.
Overall dude has lost a couple of steps, slower than an elephant and totally torched by Chris Paul.
And the $45 million extension has yet to kick in. Spurs did him a solid last year by overpaying his fat ass. He better return the favor by opting out of international ball this summer. If he chooses to play for France after the poor season he's given the fans, he deserves all the criticism in the world. Going to look even worse for him if Chris Paul continues to destroy him in the first round.
really love to see him get whatever injury and never come back ever. gabage bball player.
I remember the days when the first play of the game, without fail was a Kawhi post-up. When he was fed early and got us an early lead. When he would end up with 20+ in ~25 mins en route to a dominant team performance.
I wonder why they decided to go away from that in favor of dribble dribble dribble?
I love TP, but why is it always an injury with him, tbh? Reminds me of what Kobe always does, which I detest..
Doc with the ultimate coaching strategy by doing the two man Chris Paul and Blake Griffen action when Cojo was on the court. Did it multiple times in a row. Really made Cojo look bad.
It's just the way he plays. He got beat up tonight. I know he doesn't want to use his injury as an excuse but this is what he is now. I doubt he ever stays healthy.
Never before have I seen an NBA player use injuries to mask his poor play to the extent Tony Parker has. This is getting embarrassing.
Chris Paul played like it was a win or go home. Parker, Pop and the Spurs played understand that this is one of many games.
Not sure why Doc Rivers left Paul in the final quarter when game was decided. But then again this is why I trust Pop and the Spurs to take the series. Only player fans throw other players under bus. Real players and coaches support one another every game.
He's that high school corner-back that gets an "injury" whenever he gets burned. Disgusting.
TP gonna keep the ankle excuse in his holster.
Tony Parker looked washed out there tonight, Clippers went under every screen daring him to shoot jumpers
Parker looked terrible washed up but...
Danny Green 2-11? Boris Diaw 2-12? Aron Baynes 2-7? Manu Ginobili 2-6?
Seriously? Still committed to the e-shtick?
we lost that game during the end of 3rd quarter going from 53-59 (-6) to 64-79 (-15) guess what parker was on the bench during that strecht,
that was just a poor team effort blaming it on one player or an other is just studip as fuck
this forum has become unreadble even timvp run from the place and didn't looked back, this hatred for player that brought us so much enjoyement and titles is incomprehensible.
Along with Boris and Green, he was one of our worst players last night. The criticism is justified. He was complete dogshit and sank the team any time he was on the court. He had a 79 ORtg last night. Chris Paul was at 135 ORtg. One of these guys knew how to run a proper offense. The other didn't.
Hmmm,I had a tv. I saw the injuries. But whatever, special effects probably. The conspiracy goes deep.
Let me criticize Parker like a normal person: he looked slow, he was hesitant, those nagging injuries and the clippers aggressive defense really took its toll on him. I'd like to see the offense open up more but the lack of good ball handlers is apparent when Tony is off and the other team is aggressive on
defense.
He's just old. Its not like a personal failing to get old. Blame Pop for relying on him too much
It could be special effects. My other theory is that tonight he put on a prosthetic ankle/foot to start the game. Then he activated the "roll/twist" function so we could see it on TV. That way he would have an excuse if he played bad, which he did. Sometimes he coordinates with the FSSW/TNT/ESPN effects department to fake his injuries (in a way that we can see them "happen" live of course), but tonight I'm pretty sure he used the prosthetic method.
lol nagging injuries
Everytime he shits the bed its a sore something with this guy. Last year it was a sore ankle vs OKC, in '13 his ankle was bothering, I'm sure there was an excuse for his '12 collapse, he had the flu when Kerr bailed him out in '03, etc. It's like he's superhuman and never plays bad unless he's injured. :lol
Yup, Doc played Blake 43 min, Redick 36, Paul and Jordan 38. No clipper bench player played over 20 min except for Crawford at 23. Clippers going all out right now but could catch up to them when the games go every other day. Especially in game 5 when they come back to LA.
in the grand scheme of things I'm not sure that it matters who wins or loses the series. Judging by the way both teams played last night, I'm not sure they could beat the next level. We know the Spurs can step it up when they start clicking but I'm not sure the Clippers can. They played as well as they could last night I think.
What? Tony went for 20/7/4/1 through the '12 playoffs. How is that a collapse? Are you joking? Duncan was the next closest Spurs in terms of scoring and was still several PPG behind Parker. Ginobili was the next closest Spur in facilitating with several less APG than Parker. Then next biggest contributor was Jackson or Leonard and neither of those guys even averaged 9 PPG in the playoffs.
Not that I agree with all the Parker hate, but there's an ESPN insider article just posted titled "Ranking all 80 playoff starters". I haven't read it, since I'm not an ESPN insider, but it would be interesting to see where they rank Parker among others.

Nice streak. But I'm sure you can do better.
Lol, has them on ignore list, supposedly to ignore them, but writes about them being on his ignore list, not ignoring them :lol
:lmao
It's strange behavior, tbh..it's like a toddler screaming and not listening to his mother: "nananananana I can't hear you!! blah blah blah"
These guys are speaking the truth about Parker? "ahhhhh I can't hear you!! this isn't happening!!!"
Man, the Manu hate was levels worse than this in 2013, and Manu fans barely complained..
You were worried about your rep once he recovered.Sorry, spamming is your rep. You're part of a spamming group. You shouldn't have spammed so much.Quote:
I've made like 2 Parker threads in the past few months, too..
Link all the spam threads I started.Quote:
You're the most egregious spammer here, if we're being honest..
Go ahead.
Be honest and link all the spam threads I started.
Maybe if people stopped chasing them around and posting in nearly all of their threads they would stop. Obviously, attention is the name of the game, so why continue to complain post in every thread? How about people actually contribute actual basketball discussion?
While people's opinions may differ on this, I find the constant "defensive posts" no different than the spam threads they are in. Both incredibly annoying and of no value. In fact, I blame the tail chasers even more because they are the sole reason why people make the spam threads in the first place - attention and ruffling of feathers.
Quit complaining and following them around and contribute something postive. If you took away those people's "anti-spam" posts, there would be nothing left. It's sad when you have both spam threads and whining posts about those threads. Ignore them like a normal adult, contribute to the basketball talk or leave. What's the point of just complaining about everything?
If you took away the anti spam posts you'd still have 30 spam threads.
:lmao is this for real ?
I just realized Beto calls me out for creating one thread and dude created two about Parker just last night :lol
I disagree. The reason there are more threads is because the anti-spam post not only bump the threads up, but give the fire the fuel it needs to keep buring. If it didn't ruffle feathers, it wouldn't happen any more. But, they start a thread, people come running (despite not posting anything of value in other threads) and then they laugh and laugh (even if it's stupid).
So now no one can even disagree with the spamming of the spammers. That makes sense, DPG.
Tony played poorly but I don't think you can blame him for Kiwi playing like a retard. The player who single-handedly throttled the Warriors in one regular season game was reduced to a mere spectator in Game 1

oh ok. that's pretty good play for a retard.
Kawhi's net effect was an astounding -21 while Parker was bad as well but he was at -12. That means the Clippers were ALWAYS winning when Kawhi was on the floor. Oh and he also had 4 turnovers to compound the astounding -21.
Cojo was the next at -18 but he's not a Finals MVP like Kiwi.
