Since there aren't even 300 NBA caliber players in the NBA, I'm going to go out on a limb and say Parker was easily a top 300 player last year
Tony is a good system player. Top role player for sure.
Tony is playing well and the Spurs are winning. I care about this more than what his ranking is.
Player fan.
Why would wanting the Spurs to continue winning and not caring about what a player is ranked make me a player fan?????Player fan.
You mean "are" winning
Solid take, per par
I was talking about OP but conversing with you.
he could have had career assist night against the Wiz instead of jacking up some extra bad shots which hurt is FG%..
It was an educated guess, which wasn't that far off. Went through the rosters and he ended up being a borderline Top 80 player tbh.give me that list of 100

He's top 50 right now. 41st in PER, 69th in RPM, and watching him all season, I can find no complaints with how he is playing. Top 50 puts him in the top 10% of NBA players. Can't ask for anything more after his play last season.
Primary worries are:
- Health. We know a slight injury massively affects him.
- Trying to "prove something" to Stephen Curry if/when they match up in the post-season.
Other than that, I'm not too worried about him. It's 27 games in already, and he's got his role within this offense figured out. LMA has really opened up his lanes and creates more comfortable spots for him.
The last piece of the puzzle is Danny's positively regressing. If Danny can find his form (and he will need to, as I see GS hiding Curry on him and sicking Klay on Parker), we've got a good shot at dethroning those s.
He is on the 30s on PIE once you get rid off of the 5 mpg guys I'd say 50 is a bit low but what matters is for sure his progression
Finishing your list with Gallinari is quite the cherry on the cake
too bad you can't be serious 2 minutes but whatever
It's a huge upgrade relative to how he played last year but quit being a homer and acting like that's super impressive tbh.
What a chode

Complains about wanting Parker to reduce his usage, then judges him off vanilla PPG and APG. If that's the case, Paul George >>>>>>>> Kiwi "ultimate 3&D player" Leonard
Well, what else is there to judge him on? It's not like he's a superhuman defender like Kawhi.What a chode

He's accepted a lesser role, which is best for him and the team. If he was still out there trying to be a hero every game he'd be playing like he played for France in Eurobasket. Top 20 players are stars, 12 and 5 aren't star numbers. He's a good role player though.
Top47.
Oh now raw stats matter 12 and 5

As I said top 20 is for being a bit provocative... his progression vs. last year yes is super impressive dummy. He is on the 40s on PER, 30s in PIE, top 10 WS, top 20 net rating, best guard in shooting efficiency, he has not been a bad defenser this year
but yeah go ahead with your there is 100 nba players better than him this year with a list including galinari and barnes to name two... If you want to stick with your the schtick that made you famous on ST fine but this kind of posts does not help the small remaining credibility you had
No hes not top 20
But Im not sure we want him to be
We just need him to be efficient & fight around some screens & let the young boys do the work
He doesnt need to be the engine anymore, just man the wheel
Dude, for your own sake, you should only post when Parker plays ty. Right now, just lay low and wait for the next opportunity
Probably only top 50 which is already way better than last year
You can't take a per 36 basis alone for a ranking. He has low minutes becauses he can't handle more minutes anymore.
Tha same way Manu lost many All-Nba and All-Star selections his whole career because his body couldn't support more minutes
nobody took only his per 36 for a ranking
I said in OP that his limited minutes is a con to consider him as a top player anyway
Also a dude like manu produces more wins and point differential with his limited minutes than most of NBA starters
Not sure where he ranks as a player, but he's been great so far this season. His defense has been a pleasant surprise.
