Parker in playoff form tonight.

[Kool Bob Love]

Missed both free throws that could have sealed the game.

Bench for Marco in the last play of the game.

Playoff Parker.

It was a night to forget for almost everyone.

[Leetonidas]

Yeah let's forget him keeping the Spurs afloat in the 4th...dumbass

[Kidd K]

Parker has been good in the playoffs for like a decade. Never averaged under 17 points, never shot under 46% for past 9 years and a really good ast/to ratio for the past 7.

Are we revising history on Parker's playoff performances now?

I kind of think the Spurs don't look so great. They are still winning, but they hopefully will get a little crispier on offense.

[Kidd K]

^ Agreed, but it's kinda early in the season too. Last year we kinda sputtered out of the gate besides a couple players too.

Nah, it's generally accepted in basketball circles that Parker's a poor playoff performer. I tend to agree but his problems have more to do with the PG position - shortest guy on the court is usually the easiest guy to guard when the defenses clamp down in the post-season. There's a reason why point guards don't lead teams to championships.

This is what I do to cope anytime I feel down on our players. I think to myself what if Dwight Howard was on this roster.

Then I am suddenly filled with happy thoughts. Try it.

And still put up 18, 5, 4 on 50% shooting How bout your boy Manu?

But he sat down in the final moments. Speedy Claxton is somewhere smiling right now.

I agree, but that will be ignored.

Thank you for this.

I don't know what basketball circles those are, besides dumb ones.

In terms of PGs, Parker has been excellent in the playoffs most years. Sure he's had some bad games. . .he's also played more playoff games than most players since he's going deep or fairly deep into the postseason almost every year. In the grand scheme he's been a pretty great playoff PG even in terms of all time. Not #1 or 2, but I would say top 10 easily. Probably around #6-8 all time playoff PG depending on argument.

I agree PGs don't tend to lead teams to les, but Parker's never been considered this team's leader. It's always been Tim Duncan. And I def' don't think Parker deserves anywhere near top blame for any of our failed seasons. He's only been hurt a couple times but never missed the postseason, and pretty much only sucked in about 10% of the series we've played in in the past decade. Two or three of those times he sucked was because he was playing hurt.

Basketball circles = you and KBL.

Everybody with half a brain knows Parker is a stud.

Well, he was pretty bad against Memphis a couple years ago. Sloppy turnover coming up the court comes to mind. Guy just flat out stole it and Parker never saw it coming...

[cd98]

Jordan had bad playoff games on occasion. Parker's worst playoff games were when he was 18 and 19 years old. Hard to imagine a teenager dominating in the playoffs. When he physically matured, he become a solid, and then superior playoff performer. He has been dominant since even before he won the Finals MVP in 2007. They don't give those to poor playoff performers.
