My expectations from Parker for the 2015-2016 campaign.

A healthy parker is what this team needs. He doesn't need to be the all star pg anymore with the addition of lma and kawhi likely getting more of the load offensively along with many on the team who can contribute as well. Hes still a major threat though that defenses will have to respect. Hopefully whatever hindered his performance last season was sorted out because we will need him.

Meanwhile, the real problem is ginobili. Dude has no legs, can't shoot, has trouble creating separation, makes a lot of bad decisions and I only see it getting worse...... As much as I love pop I think he will probably stick with ginobili and give him minutes he doesn't deserve out of his love for ginobili.... Could be a major problem in the playoffs.

Really man?..so much users here said the same after 2012-2013, and his 2013-2014 playoffs and finals were big. And we aren't talking like it's something happened like 7 years ago. Show some respect and don't be a blind hater.:flag:

I know what are you trying to do :lol

I think Pop just didn't have a backup plan when Parker couldn't handle being the engine of the team last year due to injuries. Other than Manu, there were really no "engine" players to be had. For everyone calling Parker a cancer and a chucker, fuck you. Pop is in charge of the team, and if Parker was playing contrary to Pop's wishes, he would have benched Parker in an instant. Unfortunately Joseph wasn't ready to lead the team and Mills isn't really a PG anyway.

This year should see a drop in usage for Parker and an increase in efficiency, assuming he can stay healthy. In the starting lineup, Parker should be about the #3 option behind Aldridge and Leonard. If Parker can develop a respectable spot-up 3 point shot, the Spurs will be nigh unstoppable.

Nope. Dont mistake me commenting on my concerns for manu as me bashing him. Now do I think Parker has is a better player ? I do .... Or at least he has been for the past. Parker was injured last year so it's hard to say how much of his game suffered because of age and how much of it was injury . We will see this year... Parker may be just as done as ginobili and if he is ill say it.

To Enrique's defense, he looked a lot les fatty in those vids with the tiger and the press conference photos afterwards.

Maybe he stopped eating less brioche and more wholemeal bread in his french toasts.

I don't want a repeat of last season. I also think Pop is the best at making that call. I remember other key players falling off the map, only to return with a greater impact. You assume a little too much. Do you truly believe Parker is the sole reason the Spurs exited the first round last year? If so bud I'm gonna have to ask you and your followers to walk hand in hand into extinction. In all seriousness though lets hope they play with a little fire under their ass this year.

I think he will be good this season. I expect a whole heap less minutes and averages of around 13/5 on 45-48% with passable defense.
