How about putting Corey Joseph, our third-string point guard, on KD?
Reggie Jackson is killing him

If I'm the Spurs I keep doing it. Reggie owns Parker like he owned Barry that one time back years ago.
Parker is a top 3 PG.. something Jackson will never dream to be...
and I'm pretty sure Jackson will bolt soon. He's not gonna back-up West forever tbh
Parker has always been terrible at D. This isn't new.
Parker's defense is like the Maginot Line
the fact that spurs used to have a good defensive system pretty much covered up the defensive weaknesses of some individuals (Enrique, Bonner etc...), but it could no longer work that way with Bruce Bowen and Duncan's legs gone imho
Parker's defense hasn't been terrible the last two seasons. I thought it was acceptable last season. But I do feel that Parker's defense has a lot to do with the Spurs woes. Point guards have been having field days against the Spurs. Every-time I see the roll man set a screen for the opposing PG, I don't see Parker after that. Pick and roll jumpers have been murdering the Spurs as of late.
I like to think he's not really trying now, but at some point it will start to make me wonder... he's been really awful...
ur delusional if you stilll believe enrique is top3 pg let alone top5,
dude is nothing more then a ball hog who only looks to score, then playmaking or playing a lick of defense
if you say he has playmaking skills, over dribbling down the clock and weak ass bailout pass for low % bailout shot is not playmaking...
tp has always been overrated, look at all these no name pg who keeps on taking a on him
spurs only play 4 on 5 defense with enrique in the lineup,
now with errors in the line up t hats 3 on 5
now u dont even have a legitimate wing defender both out injured, good luck with whatever defensive system
its time fkn pop has to get errors the fck out for bonner/baynes into the lineup, how much more time and money is FO going to invest into this clown who is at best should be flipping burgers
it's pretty much on par with the rest of the Spurs.
which means it's laughable.
Attacking-first PGs are very liable to become cancers imho. Sure, good self-attacking ability gives a PG more freedom to organize the team's defense and poses extra threat to the opposing team (like Steve Nash) but it doesn't mean a PG is privileged to prioritize his own desire above his team's. You may also see Paul or Nash turning from assist-first mode into attacking mode, but you'll never see the likes of Enrique working the other way around tbh.
enrique fans should never bring up or mention defense in the same sentence/thead for this clown
if he had any form of defense...he wouldve blocked that bottled that shattered on his head at the club by some nigglet
Though without him you're short 3, and even if I wasn't here, this place woulda never been created for me to even have been here.
03 claxton saves his ass
05 beno/brent save his ass against teh suns, finals was all horry or ginoboli
07 lmao a rookie pg gibson no talent hack starting for the cavs
wanker gettin credit for he doesnt deserve
I didn't have a problem with his defense much in the playoffs cept for Maybe the GS series? He's never been a DPOTY type of player, but he's either not trying to burn out for the playoffs or he's already burned out from the long summer.
dont give me that bs excuse his burnt out, but has no problem going enrique in the game...
BUT, without Parker you're short 3. To deny such is like me denying without Gasol I ain't short 2.
Don't be so ing stubborn. You can still hate the fellow, but, you can't deny him his rights. GD it.
you tellin me if i replace enrique with any top5 pg those seasons spurs wont ring? cause of enriques contribution?
those early playoff rounds was all duncan or ginoboli taking a when nature called....
I'm not tellin you that because I don't talk in that "silly" way (generalities) you guys do around here. And it wouldn't matter if I did. He did it. Parker rang three times. The "any" didn't. "any" talked about doing it and "you" talked about "any" doing it---but "any" didn't ring. Parker rang, three times. Sure, it looks easy now that the smoke has cleared, and the roiling is over, and hand wringing is over, and your prayers were answered and it's quiet. Could you function at that Finals level where everything in your viewfinder looks like your television screen when the vertical hold has foundered & failed?
he played really hard at the eurocup + went to finals.. starting to bother me
so tell me, why didnt he jump on that gayray 3pt attempt in game 6?
Why did manu fall? It was Danny's man, why didn't he recover? Tony might have faults, but that Ray Allen three wasn't one of them.
Because obviously Pop and 29 other NBA coaches did not condition him or their'n. to. Otherwise he would have.
& I'm just as guilty as you. I hold Gasol in the same esteem as you hold Parker. Why didn't Gasol respond to Perkins in '08? Why didn't Gasol respond to Dirk & Chandler in '11? I got nary room to condemn you. It's personal with you & Parker, me & Gasol and when it is that way it's inexplicable.
