Tony Parker, why should we have doubts about it?
Some really comical arguments... keep them coming.
Tony Parker, why should we have doubts about it?
Deron is a better all-around classic PG, but as Brazil said, TP is a proven winner with a Finals MVP, so I'll stick with him.
They have almost the same level, but Parker game is exactly what the Spurs need.
I keep Parker.
Coke or Pepsi .. take your pick.
Even without Boozer, I'd say Williams has had more talent around him for most of the season than Parker has the past two games. That factor should be considered as well.
so do you guys think parker will make all-nba first team?
No... Chris Paul
how about second team? i think he should have that locked up since deron has missed more games than him, and with nashs team record they are if they force a huge turn around...
50days left to playoffs....
All-NBA doesn't necessarily dictate that a PG and SG MUST fill up both guard slots. It could just as easily be 2 SGs on the first or second teams.
For first team SG is Kobe. For second teams I think it will be Wade.
Second team PG (or other SG) is more open. Maybe Tony has a shot.
That would be great for him.
definitely DW
Parker (for the Spurs)
For the Spurs, I'd pick Parker over Williams, although not over CP.
To me, Parker's speed and ability to finish around the rim make the difference. In the Spurs offensive scheme, TD sucks in defenders and kicks it out to shooters spaced around the wing. The other option is the high pick and roll with TP coming off a screen from a big man.
We need someone who can consistently get points in the paint so it keeps defenders honest and guessing. I don't think Williams get into the paint as easily as Parker can. Williams is deceptively fast and has the size to bruise into guys, sure, but Parker can find a seam a rip through with speed.
Also, we don't have a lot of athletic wings or big men (Hill is athletic, but doesn't play often enough with Tony). Athletic wings could run the lanes on a fast break and finish off a pass from a running PG. How many times have we seen Bowen, Mason, or Finley run with TP, only to not be able to finish strong in the paint, or dribble back out set up the half court offense?
But TP is great for the Spurs because he's literally a one man fast break. He doesn't need athletic wings running with him - his speed is fast enough to take 2, sometimes 3, backpedaling defenders.
As for our bigs, we don't have Tyson Chandlers and Amare Stoudamires who TP can just lob it to for a dunk. So the way we score is having TP penetrate and use pure speed to keep defenders honest, instead of really worrying about the lob pass.
In the Spurs system, I'd take TP over Williams.
(On a side note, I take CP3 over TP, because of his ability to get any shot, get into the middle consistantly, be a one man fast break OR lead a break, and he truly is a better passer than TP in ANY system - and that's not really up for debate. And I'm a HUGE Spurs homer.)
The way Tony is playing it's just stupid to say Deron.
Deron Williams does not have the luxury of playing with Tim Duncan and Manu Ginobili.
