Not what I was expecting
You're not wrong though, in this point in time.

er beat me to the punch with this thread.
if nothing else, Parker gave us Bobo. So respect.
Ian Mahinmi's still only 28 tho?
Yep..Parker's biggest contribution in the 2014 playoffs was bringing Bobo to the Spurs, tbh..
Pop directed Tony to put self-glory and stats behind him, begged him to sacrifice his numbers for the greater good. And the Frenchman obeyed, despite knowing he'd be crucified on Spurstalk. Yet he gave it all up for the greater good.
Great leadership

You got me
Have to give Enrique credit for bringing in Boris though. That was probably his biggest contribution to last year's championship.
Messina is not French and anyway older.
Good thread!
10/10
All I could think of, lol
Boris, of course, has arguably 'saved' himself far more over the years than the other 32 year old frenchman on this team, who merely carried the team on his back through 2012-2013, and has run farther and faster than any other guard on this spurs team or any previous spurs team.
Perhaps if that other 32 year old frenchman had taken is as easy on other teams over his career he might look better now, as well.
This thread was inspired by re-watching Game 4 of the Finals last night, tbh... when motivated, what a player!! Basically, after starting him in Game 3, games were all blowouts... He was a walking matchup nightmare...
I'm a big Boris fan....
Of [I]course/I it only is about Boris. That is why you pointedly referenced the age and country of origin of the person you were admiring.]
Parker's decline has less to do with mileage and more to do with his lack of skills. His court vision was always average for his position and his shooting was never stellar like other point guards that aged well(Nash, Stockton, etc). Parker's decreasing effectiveness coincides with his declining speed. Without his quickness, he's pretty much useless as a player. Bottom ten defender in the NBA and a ball-stopper on offense.
Please, this thread is to celebrate Boris 2.0... there's plenty of threads about det other topic...
About Boris - What do you think was his best playoff series last year? OKC or Miami? He on the Heat with his passing but his scoring was vital against the Thunder.Please, this thread is to celebrate Boris 2.0... there's plenty of threads about det other topic...
He hit a critical 3 pointer to win Game 4(?) against Dallas... but he was still a bit tentative back then and passing up shots...
I think he was great against OKC making Collison/Adams get out of the paint, but he was at his absolute best as a matchup nightware on Wade. I think philli never quite figured out how to cover that mismatch.
A great role player.
No championship without him.
Duncan with Boris was an awesome combination against some of our tougher opponents.
Love the bigbutt pivot to the baby hook he is now utilizing.
He is extremely useful in the half court game.
