Lol!"You can forgive Parker for not thinking of the Spurs as contenders with Duncan getting older. As far as Parker has experienced, the only way he’s ever won a le is with Duncan as the main cog. Tony Parker knows nothing else.TP has yet to see a way that the Spurs have challenged for an NBA le without Duncan close to his dominating prime. And as Parker watches Duncan deteriorate physically game after game and season after season, the championship window in his head shuts and locks; the blinds lowered, curtains drawn closed. All that’s left is to turn out the light."

This led to the FO getting Kawhi which saw the revival of the Spurs and win another chip. Which led to luring LA to the Spurs because we have Kawhi. Let's thank the frenchie for surrendering early.
