Better player: 05 Manu or 13 Parker?

[Purch]

Simple question for you Spurs fans

[DAF86]

Please stop it. 's getting ridiculous now.

[Purch]

That didn't really answer the question

[DAF86]

'05 Manu was the second coming of Jesus, I thought this was already established.

[Arcadian]

2005 Manu helped his team win a championship.

2013 Parker couldn't quite get his team to a championship.

???

Profit.

[SupremeGuy]

2013 Parker was an MVP candidate. Has Manu ever even been considered for an NBA MVP in his entire career?

lol yes

Manu got MVP votes and consideration multiple seasons.

[SupremeGuy]

lol yes

Manu got MVP votes and consideration multiple seasons.

I remember 6th man of the year, but MVP?

[DAF86]

Off the top of my head: '07/'08, '10/'11 and I know I'm forgetting some other seasons.

[SupremeGuy]

'07 was the year that his ankle was in the playoffs right? When Fisher elbow dropped Barry and we didn't get the call?

[DAF86]

Yep. '07/'08.

[SupremeGuy]

Just thought about it, but both of the years you mentioned Gino was hurt in the playoffs. lol That crazy argentinian bas .

[Frankie23]

As far as stats during regular season, Manu's best seasons were 07/08 and 10/11.

But Manu's 2004/05 (Olympics + playoffs run) is just...WOW.

Tony Parker was amazing in 2013, but Manu's 05 season was as they said before, close to JESUS haha

Is this a parody of no lyfe scrub aka superjames1992?

Tony Parker-
2012-2013

PPG-20.6
APG-7.6-
P.E.R.-23.0
True Shooting % -58.8

Postseason

PPG-20.6
APG-7.0
P.E.R.-21.5
True Shooting %-52.1
---------------------------------------
Manu Ginobili

2004-2005

PPG-15.1
APG-3.6
P.E.R.-22.3
True Shooting %-.593

Postseason

PPG-20.6
APG-4.2
P.E.R.-22.4
True Shooting %-.593

In terms of raw production, Parker was better. When looking at P.E.R. and TS% Ginobili was better.

From what i remember Parker had a better season. He was fantastic that year.

That would be quite honestly be reserved for 03 Tim Duncan TBH.

[Mikeanaro]

Deron Williams.

[emanueldavidginobili]

Ginobili finished in MVP voting 10th in 07/08 and 8th in 10/11. he even finished 18 in defensive player of the year in 05

[Leetonidas]

2013 Parker. When you are getting MVP considering when LeBron James and Kevin Durant are in their primes you are an elite player

[Johnny RIngo]

2005 Manu mainly because he didn't choke in the Finals like 2013 Parker

Wait...What?

The gap in raw stats is due to minutes. Parker played 5 more minutes per game.

The advanced stats are actually pretty similar.

Parker had a better regular season. Ginobili had a better post season run.

[Malik Hairston]

Somebody should make a 2014 Parker vs. 2014 Ayres thread, tbh..

[Brunodf]

Spurs won the championship and Manu showed up in game 7 of the 2005 finals... So u have to pick Manu

[TheGreatYacht]

2013 Manu vs 2014 preseason Sam Young

DO IT!!
