Greece is just the opposite. They claim their country is 99% genic. They are xenophobic racists. They refuse to recognize any of their ethnic minorities, or any other religion.
Parker has never had to share the ball in the last 3 years. And last year was asked/forced to be the number 1 option.
Now that he has others he can depend on to distribute to...he's going to have learn that role as well and when to do it.
I hope it'll come about.(being a better distributor) But people can't expect him to do that in just a few games into a season where just the past season he was counted on for scoring.
Admittedly his defense is not up to standard compared to last year. That's got to be attributed to another reason since it's been proven he can play better defensively than what he's been doing thus far. Hopefully that comes around as well and probably will as the season progresses.
That said. If Parker were traded to land a top tier post player I think the team would be fine as far as perimeter players on the team now and give the Spurs a more balanced team with regards to perimeter and post player contributions.

That's just as stupid as saying '99 should have an asterisk. (as Bill Walton said: They beat everyone they had to beat.)
Maybe without Parker, it's not a 4 game sweep? Cavs had no answer for him.
I'm not a Parker-lover, but come on guys. This is just getting ridiculous. One of the best pg's in the game. Instant offense if the rest of the team is suckin, floor leadership. Team-oriented with team chemistry. Lament all you want, but he's a great pg and he'll keep winning games for us.
lol
Still can't believe the magnitude of hate we are getting for Parker here.
So I assume with this witty repartee you are trying to make the point that Parker only dominated the Finals because of Gibson's inexperience and that he had to start.
Again, just as stupid as the asterisk for the '99 finals.
You can call out all the "well, if...." scenarios that you want. The hardware and the resume, however, will never change.
Don't even try to answer to TDMVPDPOY and Duncan the G.O.A.T., they're just basic TP haters, god only knows why. You'll get tired before them![]()
Stop. Just STFU.
You are literally whining that our point guard just destroyed a defense for 30+ points on 50%+ shooting with 7 assists and getting to the line nearly 20 times while dishing out 7 assists.
You have no clue what the you're talking about.
This is stupid. I said Tony Parker was dominant and you sound re ed. May I ask where were you when Parker was playing lousy? What are you crying havoc about this time? Starting this thread was redundant in the first place. I said it was a typical Tony Parker dominant performance. So, tell me what is wrong with that? So your Tony Parker dominant performance would have a statline of 40 and 12. Explain. All you have been doing is call out people who you think Parker sucks this season and when they explain, you will tell them to STFU.

Parker.
Has.
Been.
Hurt.
If he had a broken leg, would you expect him to be throwing up 15-5 statlines? Because you're judging an All-star, finals MVP, 3 ringed point guard based on 8 games of a regular season while playing hurt, and you STILL criticized the above performance.
Your Parker hate could not be more obvious.
Are you stupid? He is healthy now. There are many notable players who played well immediately coming back from injuries. I was giving my opinion on why he is not playing well and you think I am hating on him. When people are objective and able to see flaws, you think people are hating. Cry about it some more. I can't wait to hear it.
Funny how you never showed up when he is playing lousy. Stupid thread.
Funny how you criticize a player for being less effective 8 games into the season, while injured.
Also, when have I now shown up? I have nearly 9,000 posts on this site. You think Parker has a bad game and I stop posting?
I don't think Pop would allow an injured player to play, like how he pulled Ginobili back today. Again, stupid reasoning from a homer who gives excuses on weaker performance. What are you going to say if Parker has a weak performance today?
- Source: WikipediaDuring the 2005–06 season, Duncan suffered from plantar fasciitis for most of the season,[48] which was at least partly responsible for his sinking output (18.6 points, 11.0 rebounds, 3.2 assists and 2.0 blocks per game), and also for his failure to make the All-NBA First Team after eight consecutive appearances.
Sorry. What were you saying?
What was that? 3 years back? Proof from last season how he would never play an injured player who needs time to recover.
And last I checked, players are allowed to have bad games. Even the great Tim Duncan has had a few. Do you make threads and bash Timmy when he has an off-night?
I don't make threads to bash players, period.
You said Popovich wouldn't allow an injured player to play. You did not put a specific timetable on when this has (not) occurred. I'm simply offering up facts to refute your generalizations that bear no truth in reality. Do you really think Manu has been 100% every time he's been on the court? Or Duncan? Or any Spurs player?
Right, you just crash them with your ridiculous hate for specific players not playing the game the way you want them to.
lol Chieflion saying someone uses bad reasoning, should look at his own posts.
I don't think Parker likes people to give excuses for him. He is 100% now or so he says. I am sure he believes it. If I want to see 100% Tim Duncan, I will search for old tapes in 2003. If I want to see Manu at 100%, then I will look for his 2005-08 tapes. Parker's prime is now and he has not proved it so far which is a major disappointment.
Have you only posted one-liners throughout this thread?
Here we go again. You don't like people giving their personal opinion, then gtfo from spurstalk. It is not hate. It is opinion.
Why yes I have, because I believe the discussion going on in here is just stupid.
You talk about Parker not controlling Pace but he does everything a coach would want him to do on offense in the GS game. Then you complain about him sayin that he can guard Ellis when it is ultimately up to Pop who guards who, why don't you bash Hill and the defense that was played against Ellis.
