Why wouldn't he play? Was it ever in question?
I want Parker to play btw, he's still a useful player, I'm just confused..

Re: MVParker expects to play in game 3
He is running out of injury excuses. I wouldn't be surprised if he has a torn rotator cuff next. :lmao

I'm pretty sure if a player misses the 4th and OT due to injury it is a question.

Re: MVParker expects to play in game 3
He will play but he won't drive and continue to shoot jumpers from the outside and miss unfortunately. I wish he would atleast take it inside a few times and dish or do whatever. His J is horrible right about now.

Re: MVParker expects to play in game 3
good news. I think he moved the ball well last night despite shooting horrendously.
He played like a near prime Rondo (offensively) if you ask me

This series is tough for Boris, and missing those layups hasn't helped. I still expect him to step it up in the remaining games.

Re: MVParker expects to play in game 3
The key to Parker playing is not just will he make his jumpshots and drive aggressively to the rim, it's will the Clippers leave him open on jumpers and will they have a big switch to cover him when he gets in the lane. So long as the Clippers fear his jumper/penetration, they will defend it in a way that will help the Spurs with their spacing. If they don't, and he can't punish them for ignoring him, then he won't be very effective. Some people here think he's finished, but Coach Rivers is a little smarter than to underestimate a guy that is capable of raising his game, especially at home. As long as Coach Rivers fears Parker's offense, and defends him accordingly, he will be helpful. If not, then he does become more or less COJO minus the defense.

Sit him until he puts forth effort on both ends, regardless if his shots are falling.

The encouraging thing is he's getting open and/or close in shots. Just have to knock them down.

Re: MVParker expects to play in game 3
I hope he plays a good game 3, at home, I think he will be fine
game 2 was tough for him but he at least did not force and had the courtesy to sit to let Patty running the stuff... after if really it was because he was bothered by his achilles or not is not very important tbh
main thing is that he did not try to play the warrior and finish with a loss and a 0/15

Re: MVParker expects to play in game 3
He didn't try to play beyond his capabilities. The Spurs run into problems when he forces the issue. I can't fault his effort considering his many injuries.

Re: MVParker expects to play in game 3
I'm really hoping for a throwback Tony performance where he drops 32 or something and reminds people that he's one of the best point guards in the league, I know he's not anymore but I love when Parker gets media love tbh. Say what you want about him, he's a passionate dude who plays his ass off when he's feeling 100% and makes some cold blooded plays. Gotta love Tony, and I love watching him go off.

Re: MVParker expects to play in game 3
If he's not close to 100% then he should sit tbqh. The Spurs have other options to run their offense through, and the role players should step up at home.

Nice troll thread ... can't have Pork crackles doing anymore Rondos

Re: MVParker expects to play in game 3
I think he should sit for a game. I don't think that we advance without him playing well, but I think we can get through a game at home.
What bothers me most about this achilles issue is that he did it two weeks ago and it has come back. That's when you just feel like you know he's going to keep struggling with it all through the playoff run, regardless of how long the run lasts. And that just sucks. It sucks because he doesn't play effectively when he is hurt, and it sucks because an ineffective Parker means every game thread is filled with asinine hate-filled comments that are so predictable, so tedious, and so repetitive that they just regurgitate hate, obliterating any enjoyment of a watching a game with folks who also like basketball.

Re: MVParker expects to play in game 3
People hoping for TP to sit out are sorely underestimating TP in the series. Yes, he's been terrible. But what does that tell you that the offense still created more good looks with TP than other guys. Knocking down shots (like Patty) is one thing and important. Getting the most good looks is important too.

Excuses that Enrique has used in the postseason throughout his career; achilles tightness, sore ankle, bruised thigh, mild hamstring strain, calf strain, amputated asscheek, flu...what's next?

Re: MVParker expects to play in game 3
He needs to sit his ass on the bench until at least the WCF.

No worries, Spurs are 2-0 in elimination games when Parker is out for the game.

I jam my finger every ten minutes I play basketball. It's a tough sport. Especially if you like to run into a crowd of jacked up massive dudes. I urge you to try it some time. Run into a crowd of men and scream" and one" see what happens. Post a video here. Do it 1000 times over a year. I bet you hurt quite a few things.

Re: MVParker expects to play in game 3
I wonder if he will use a new injury or the same ones if he he plays poorly tonight :stirpot:
