They've run it more times already than they have last year and I think it has been almost 100% successful. They should run that play every game.
What can you say about it? It seems effective, everytime they execute this play, it works perfectly with the screen of Timmy also.

Yeah, I searched in YouTube and I didn't notice that they're already doing it since last year. F*ck BTV/ESPN for not televising Spurs game here. They televised it but I think it's like twice a month or thrice.
TP went from one of the worst alley-oop passers I've ever seen prior to this season to being the best on the team now.
They analyzed the TP-to-RJ Alley-oop from last Spurs-Hornet game in a French TV show (Canal NBA).
It showed a near perfect team execution (player movement, timing, screens...) leading to an "easy" Alley-oop.
Every time I see the pass I think "nope it's too high" and then RJ puts it down anyways lol.
that play works everytime. i cant believe teams havent scouted that out yet. soon enough they will.
A couple of times this year, i've seen teams realise that play and stop RJ's path. parker then normally just goes into a side pick & roll with Timmy. IIRC this happened against Portland two games ago. Considering they were one of the first teams we used the play on last year it seems they learnt their lesson.
Did not realize they'd run that play successfully so many times.![]()
It's not Parker to Jefferson, but this was just too good to not see again. And on top of that, the idiot GSW commentators.
"He tried to ride him like a donkey."
Tried?
I'm surprised they only run this play once a game (and some games they don't do it at all). It's a good play that is hard to defend and a nice "go to" if they need a quick two. Until other teams start looking for it they should run it a couple of times a game.
Parker should work on the "no look" pass too.
"He tried to ride him... like... a donkey!"
If I recall the same play during the Mavs series last year but the pass was high but RJ got hold of it and the dunk was massive.
As long as TD gets the screen right, the play should work everytime.![]()
What I was thinking too, unless that weakside defender is Tyrus Thomas or Dwight Howard there is no one who is going to elevate fast enough to stop the dunk.
TP doing a great job in those passes to RJ
LMAO! This is my 2nd favorite dunk of RJ coming in after the one where he posterized Oden last season. I remember watching that live I couldn't believe it, haven't seen something like that from our team in a while. This season and Spurs team is becoming very FUN to watch. Let's see what they have to say about us now...![]()
Saw it against Lakers and Thunder.![]()
Yeah, I'm wondering now how much of his prior horribleness had to do with trying to lob to Duncan.It also probably matters that Parker always throws it from a stationary position. When he can make that pass on the break, then we'll know he's really learned something.
Hill seems to have learned how to run that play now, too.
I think there was one game this season where Tony threw the pass, RJ got airborne and the defender met him at the rim to intercept the pass. But I don't remember which game it was. Maybe the Homegame vs Denver. But I'm not sure. But I remember that I thought that this was the first time I've seen this play didn't work.
Sean also did that last season and again this season.
i remember seeing that. it looks like TP lost his balance so he just threw it up and RJ slammed it.
