Too much in love with that shot, tbh

You mean the best defensive performance you have ever witnessed from Parker... right? I agree that he played hard on D tonight, and did a hell of a job. But the best defensive performance ever? That's not really what you meant to say, I'm sure.

Danny Green had one hell of a defensive game, too. Kawhi just kept coming up with 50-50 balls that either gave the Spurs extra possessions, or kept the Dubs from getting extra ones.

After all it still was more about the "switch everything" and players like L-Train stepping out, pressuring Curry after the switches.

team defense was awesome. Pop still tweaking

Greens defense was great tonight. Blocked Curry twice.

I'm as big a Danny Green critic as their is (his inconsistency kills me) but he played his ass off on defense tonight. 11 pts on offense was great too. TP did his best on D but let's not go overboard. He was GS's targeted mismatch and they took advantage of it several times. I think its great when its not BAD, if that makes sense.

As for Tim, poor dude looked out of place and slow when he was in the game. Props to Pop for sitting him. He needed to know what he could get from his other guys. GSW are a terrible match up at this point his career.

I think he got in his head a bit tbh. Danny's best game of the year easily

This

Although the entire team for the most part played good defense, Parker does deserve some props for doing his part and playing really well. GS was attacking him all night by posting him up with bigger players and he stepped up. He even stayed in front of Curry when he was on him. Offensively he moved the ball and hit some timely threes. :tu

We can debate the quality of Parker's game(he had some really good stretches, but also really bad stretches), but there's no doubt that he was much, much better than Mills in this game, tbh..

He played good D, obviously. But the OP (who is retarded btw) saying it's the greatest defensive performance he's ever seen is a huge exaggeration. It wasn't even the best defensive performance of the game-- that would be LDN.

I always thought that Parker should be quick enough to stay in front of any guard but his quickness hasn't usually translated into good defensive performance. Maybe it has something to do with the switching that the Spurs did. No matter the reason I to got give him his props for sticking to Curry even in iso situations. Parker put a lot of pressure on him and forced him into some though shots that Curry can make but didn't. Good shit; I hope he keeps it up.

Enrique played good D against Steph.

But Klay was abusing Enrique

15 pts and 7/20. Abusing?

Parker looked engaged defensively for the most part along with every live body in a spurs uniform. Hats off to good D

Agreed, I can live with Danny scoring less if his stifling D and ball movement continue.

Don't forget the couple of timely 3's from the corner. Who would've thought TP would make more 3's than steph in a game?

Was it also the best defensive performance you've ever witnessed?

Parker wasn't asked to be our engine on offense which obviously helped him maintain a certain level of focus and intensity on defense he normally doesn't have the luxury of

Parker was great, Green was even better. Danny was a monster and doesn't get near enough credit

We're talking about Tony here right? Of course it was not the best defensive performance I've ever witnessed.
