PG comparison: Tony Parker vs. Ty Lawson

[DarrinS]

I can live with Parker's defensive liabilities if he plays that well offensively.

Even with all the injuries and uneven play, the Spurs are 4th in DRtg. It's the 13th in ORtg part that is the main reason they're sitting in 6th/7th. Parker getting back to form on offense is probably the most important improvement the team can make.

Sure but not every PG lets the opposing PG get his season average by halftime. Enrique did today. Not every PG is statistically a bottom 5 defender in the whole league. Enrique is.

Rique had a good offensive game. Just don't talk PG match-up when Lawson was on pace to double his season average in points until Kawhi switched on him.

Moret han one thing happened there.

Lawson's 16 points in the first half were split evenly between baskets and free throws. He was 8 for 8 in free throws. Manu had three fouls in the few minutes he played in the first half. Tony absolutely was defending Lawson for the 4 baskets. But that is 8-9 points (I think one of the was a three). But he didn't send him to the foul line. That was on Manu.

In the second half Kawhi did a great job defending Lawson for most of the second half, but Lawson also shot at least one three pointer in Kawhi's face. And Kawhi has about 6 inches or more on Lawson.

Lawson just had a good shooting night last night.

Your bind hatred of Tony just takes your analytics right out of any discussion. Tony also had a couple of steals last night and was very active on defense. He has never been and will never be considered a defensive powerhouse, but he is a valuable member of the TEAM, a concept with which you seem unfamiliar with.

Pop had a good coaching job last night, imo.

After Manu (who I love) had a fairly forgettable first half, he really limited his minutes until the game was in hand.

Kawhi and Parker both played about 35 minutes last night, each more than anyone else, and BOTH of them are largely responsible for our win, along with Pop knowing to leave them in there.

Nuggets, Lawson especially got a ton of bs calls last night and a ton of rolls. How that faried throws up goes in I'll never know and most of Ty's luck chucks were contested.

He doesn't watch the games.
