The ST double standard ...

[TheGreatYacht]

Waaaaaay back on page 4. Still applies!

Ok, so you think Kawhi had the ball in his hands more often simply bc Rique did a whole lot of nothing during his dribble dribble dribble (no FGAs, FTs or assts)?

at it just being the way I see it, as if how many touches a player gets is subjective. Check the thread I made to see if it's 'just the way I see it'. He hasn't been fed early like he was during the dominant stretch of the steak...mainly bc Pop still insists on running the offense through a fat, over the hill PG.



The good thing about Kawhi is that even in 'bad' games he puts up 18 on efficient shooting, rebounds, has more assists than the starting PG and grabs steals. If his 'bad' games ever reach the level of tiness that Rique's 'bad' games reach, then talk about a double standard.

I wonder if this will make a cover?

Yes it is just the way you see it exactly the way you see it. You used plenty of time usage to complain about Kawhi touches and now this is not valid... Hum ok

you are a funny inconsistent dude, when parker has 18 points with plenty of assists on efficient shooting you trash him saying he is a cone on defense and gives back on the other side... Well by your standard dat was Kawhi game 1, like it or not, he contested 10 shots opponents made 9 of them, his defense was overall subpar but surprisingly its a detail when it fits your agenda

[Silver&Black]

hey so when was parker ever blamed for a loss?

By the 30 threads created....my guess would be last night.

[ElNono]

he had banned after months of spamming he had a good life and we still talk about him... Ultimate recognition

but I see you forgot all the others it's all good tho ST never criticized parker before this year dat credibility

I didn't say criticizing Tony didn't happen before, stop changing what I said. I said criticizing Tony was taken as some sort of trolling, thus the ban...

TIMVPDPOY said a lot of stupid , but some truth bombs were there too, tbh...

But are you not reading this thread? OP wants to know why the guy with 18 pts, 3 assists and 4 steals isn't getting the blame.

[Brazil]

That you're a huge Parker fan and that it hurts you when people insult him.

This is it Beto it is hurting my feelings


carry on tbh not gonna spend my night with your admit it you are butthurt

Yeah, you should start a thread on how not butthurt you are.

you are in the truth bomb business now ? Thought you were better than that. Timvpdoywankeridiot posts make no sense whatsoever and most of the time impossible to understand. Dude is dumb enough to get banned on the most unmoderated forum of the web

for the rest, criticizing manu was also seem as trolling, it has been the same for the big 3 since forever not sure why you are making distinction dude like hater has been tagged as a troll because of that to take one example

[Brazil]

Yeah, you should start a thread on how not butthurt you are.

So that you can post 150 times in it to show how not butthurt you are ?

I never complained about usage. I complain about not having a Kawhi centric offense early on to open things up. When idiots were trying to say but Kawhi got 14 FGAs vs NO , I even said it's not about FGAs.

Again, the offense wasn't ran through Kawhi yesterday. He didn't have many plays called for him. The fact that he was able to still put up 18 on efficient shooting despite having few plays called for him is a testament to his greatness. When Enrique had his 18 points and 6 assts vs NO the offense was ran through him and the shooters got 0 3PT FGAs, Kawhi was not involved and they got beatdown. I have no idea why it's so hard for you to grasp the difference tbh.

No so I can post 150 nuggets of truth, tbh.

not only nobody got banned for criticizing manu, Bruno the mod went out of his way to and moan about his 2 year extension.

And TDMVPDPOY continually brought up Speedy and Brent Barry's wife, tbh... you can pretend you didn't understand but people don't get banned for gibberish, we both know that.

[Silver&Black]

But are you not reading this thread? OP wants to know why the guy with 18 pts, 3 assists and 4 steals isn't getting the blame.

Because he's the best player on the team.....and he posted a +/- of -21. Should the best player on the team not get the majority of the blame? I certainly think they should....

You know me rob (mi negro). I'll dish out the blame to any Spurs player. This is a lot easier to do when you're not a player fan tbh. Did Parker play like last night? Of course. Did Kawhi have a great game last night? No he didn't.

What you're missing though is a lot of the little things that lead to this type of play. Should Parker have more than 1 assist....again, of course he should. Did Diaw and Green missing WIDE OPEN 3s lead to some of this? Yep. The flop CP3 pulled on Kawhi to get him his 2nd foul....that's a huge call. Might have changed the game. The game started to get out of hand after he was benched early.

Parker played an awful game last night....but it wasn't near as bad as Green, Bobo, Splitter, CoJo, Baynes, and even Pop. You only focus on Parker though. I didn't notice the 30 anti-Green threads last night. Were they there? Cause I must have missed them all....

[Agloco]

hey so when was parker ever blamed for a loss? did you come up with an answer yet?

Your issue, your work.
Judging by your posting rate youd be more efficient in using that search function than I. Search away. Let us know what you come up with. Hopefully your findings help with this crisis you're having.

He put up a very good stat line despite playing with a PG who makes every player on the floor worse. I posted all of his stats and he had a decent game compared to Parker which is what this thread is about. His plus minus was negative but so was Parkers. Plus minus is also a stat imo. Kawhi was the reason the game was even close. Parker was the reason we went down big. Spurs biggest runs came with him on the bench. That speaks for itself.

except yesterday was not a good example the way he struggled to go through double teams

Because Green got benched. Which is dumb considering the fact that the Clips are the most efficient offensive team in the league but that's besides the point. Meanwhile Enrique was promptly subbed in for MVPaddy when he was hitting shots and sparking a run.

[DPG21920]

There were a lot of problems and yes, I would agree that Parker probably played the biggest role. However, that's stupid considering a lot of guys played really poorly. Even if TP has the biggest part of the blame, it's not like it's a majority percentage.

If you want to argue play by pay, then sure, absolutely TP should receive most of the blame considering he's a very highly paid player. But in the game, no one cares about the amount of money being made. It's not like TP was in the running for MVP and getting a ton of national credit this year; that is what happens to Lebron and why he gets all the blame.

TP has been really, really bad and it has been a very big concern despite the Spurs being one win away from the 2nd seed in a stacked West. Even though TP was really bad last night and hugely important to how far the Spurs can go, a lot of guys played really, really bad and enough so that it just doesn't make sense to blame one player for the game.

Some games, you can blame one player for the majority of problems. This game was not the case.

[Agloco]

Where are your stats to back up your facts?
The team plays better when he is eating bench.

We're not discussing that, try to keep up.

[FkLA]

Drawing double teams is a positive thing. Turning it into a negative by going away from your best offensive option is stupid.

Pop should've made adjustments. Surrounding him with shooters would've been a good start (i.e. Paddy in for Porker).
