I'd agree, but Parker is a different equation all together.
Lose Ratliff, Lose Finley, neither very big role players this year, but guys that took minutes away.
Now without Parker, team gels better. Better tighter rotations.
This is going to get interesting when Parker is ready to play, does Pop pull a Jameer Nelson.
I'd agree, but Parker is a different equation all together.
Parker is extremely pertinent to the success of this team in the post season.
Parker is way better than Jameer and he plays the second he can.
As much as I like Parker, I wouldn't cry myself to tears if this team found another direction in the next few years
Finley was like a lamprey, sucking the life out of the Spurs fish.
Agreed, as he should. Just hope this time together with the short bench tightens defensive rotations and Pop finalizes a lineup
As long is it is not within the next 2, I am fine.
I don't want it to go down that way, but if it makes sense, I understand.
You should.
It is one thing to think that the spurs should take another direction it's another to not be sad to see an important piece of a championship team leaving.
The dream I have every night is this:
DWill is iing pissed at Utah, and has all but said he's leaving when his contract is up because they salary dumped his boy Ronnie Brewer to the Grizz. Utah wins the lottery. They draft John Wall, but rather than have a long term issue, they swap an unhappy DWill to us for Parker as a one year mentor for Wall. They save two years of high salary and avoid a conflict while still drafting the best available player.
yeah spurs play bottom feeders
ofcourse they look good
duncan looks bored hopefully or he trully sucks
dwill is not a leader
parker is a better leader then that
dwill is a better passer though
If Deron is sufficiently pissed off and Utah is willing to trade, I think we will be more than happy to do it. Deron is like the 2nd best PG in the NBA at the moment.
As for the John Wall draft, is that due to Utah owning the Knick's pick ?
I don't want TP gone at all, but if things go south after Duncan and it makes sense for both parties, I understand.
But unless it is a no brainer, no way he moves until Duncan is gone.
They can get better value for DWill than Parker.
I myself am thoroughly amazed we have won a game since Finley left.
I didn't think this team could win without Findog's clutchness...they never did before.
I mean, did you guys not see that performance against Denver in game 5 of the 07 playoffs?
Never thought we'd win a game without Michael "win" Finley, much less go 7-1 without him.
Maybe, maybe not. Can they get another vet All Star PG to mentor Wall for one year and roll off, saving them like $30+M?
Too deep overnight was the problem. The fact that Pop had to simplify the training camp process says everything about how deep and new-look we became. Too many players can hurt, especially when SG's in Mason and Finley probably want at least 20 MPG...
PS. we NEED Parker to win a championship, no doubt about it.
I will say that the Spurs were so deep. So deep they put that ass to sleep.
I had a tent between my legs by the time I got through reading this.
Best Ice Cube album...and probably a top 5 all time rap album.
OMG.
No SPurs were not too deep. IMO there is no such thing as "too" deep.
Yeah they are the deepest team in the league (they have #1 bench in all statistics) but even a deep team that doesn't gel, won't be a contender.
Finally they are gelling. And they still could use Theo vs. Lakers and Finley for a few clutch playoff shots.
so again, no. There is no such thing as "too" deep
