Had nothing to do with what I was saying, but yea. PARKER struggled, but it's not like he's our only starter to struggle in a game this year.

I meant he was all in by putting Kawhi/LMA back in earlier than he usually does, and playing them bigger mins, even on a b2b.

It's true. When we beat GS in the playoffs in 2013, Mills almost averaged 1 PPG and typical lousy Parker only went for 23/6/5.

It was even worse against OKC as Mills went crazy for 4/2. Of course Parker laughingly only went for 13/5/2.

If we want to beat them this year, who knows? Mills might have to go for 5 PPG. He might even make 2 shots in the 4th quarter of one of the games like Claxton did.

Spurs 4th quarter scoring:

Aldridge 14
Leonard 7
Mills 5

Wow I didn't even realize they were the only 3 to score in the 4th quarter

Tom Penn on ESPN has an interview, talking about the "new big 3" Kingslayer, LMAlpha and Peppermint Patty being better than the original. Stats guys are blasphemous because until the new ones start stacking chips like the originals this is a stupid thing to assert. There is a life beyond just numbers, smdh.
