Don't need anyone to defend me...the stats do that just fine. Good to hear you've been here for all the chips. I'm a player fan and a team fan. More than one player but no need to defend Ginobili or Duncan as this board doesn't have people post much irrational factless claims about them in general.Op an insecure playerfan.
No even the biggest Parker fans in here defending your got self.
Been here for all the Championships OP.
Fixed.
Your "preemptive" thread backfired per par. You basically are making fun of Tony in the long run.
? Not sure why my name is being mentioned... I don't even understand what op is about... Smh
In the end, what's your opinion/take in all this? What do you want to achieve with this thread?
Nono with the goods, as always.sup my dude... miss your posts and insight, tbh
Yeah, strange thread... it's not like everybody is hoping Tony doesn't play in the playoffs (unless we're closing the Thunder in OKC)... we're all hoping he just isn't the fat turd he was last year, tbh, which I would think any Spursfan would want...OP is the biggest player-fan on ST, tbh
Andre Miller isn't even going to play in the playoffs, yet there's a strange sense of insecurity and defensiveness from OP..
I'm dying dude.
Just pre-empting the notion that because a player makes a timely shot, it negates some other player's impact. The greatest example of this might be the Ray Allen 3 in G6. On other forums (and probably this one), what Lebron did in the 2013 Finals was called less than amazing. Not only does he average 25/11/7 for the series, he scored 16 points in the 4th quarter of that game to bring the Heat back. Then he hits the 3 pointer that makes it a 2-point game. But because he missed and Allen makes the last 3 to tie the game, Lebron is branded as getting "bailed out" by a guy that went 3/8 in the game. Then Lebron goes for 37/12/4 in Game 7 including the game-clinching shot. And yet there are people that bring this narrative that somehow Ray Allen was more valuable to that championship. Hey, if that's what you want to believe, go for it.
ah geez,not this again.
Spurs wouldn't have made to the Finals with Speedy.
After the first 2 or 3 Finals games, there was talk of Tony in the running for Finals MVP.
Speedy left the Spurs and went on to a stellar career.
OP is on that drabble now.
The only thing that backfired was me not realizing you were going to post a dozen times in this thread.Your "preemptive" thread backfired per par. You basically are making fun of Tony in the long run.
Has someone made an Iglesia for Speedy tbh...?
Is dynasty on dial up tbh... Takes him hours for a reply...
Since he never scored 30 points in a game in his career, maybe we can combine his with Kawhi's.
I'm not the most popular guy in the world, but I do have some semblance of a life.
Don't sell yourself short...
But Lebron was bailed out in that moment. I never would suggest that Allen was more valuable than Lebron, but that doesn't change the fact that he bailed him out in that moment. Lebron, early in his career, was known for choking at the end of games, especially in the Finals. It appeared that he was doing it again - yes he had great stats and carried the team all game, but when it mattered most he started to fold against a superior Spurs team. Do you realize the impact that airball 3 would have had on his psyche had the Allen shot not happened? It changed everything.
To be fair, though, it wasn't only Allen who bailed him out - it was the random motion of the ball bouncing long off the miss and being tipped by Bosh into Allen's hands - which in turn was caused by Duncan not being on the floor. A series of random/unfortunate events bailed out Lebron.
After failing to become an NBA player, I attempted to become an NBA writer - it just didn't fulfill me.
So I had a bunch of kids like an NBA player. Much more fulfilling, even if it was another NBA failure... It was with one woman, and I stuck around.
God bless Shawn Kemp.
Will do, my friend. Still lurk from my phone, just takes too much effort to type from it.
I hope he's more productive than TJ Ford.
He got bailed out b/c his turnover led to baskets on the other end & he was running out of time to makeup for his untimely turnovers. If LeBron wasn't throwing up bricks while being dared to shoot uncontested 17ft shots when he was by far supposed to be the best player in the league then the series wouldn't have come down to Ray Allen hitting a miraculous 3 to save the season & LeBron's legacy.
Otherwise, you could just say the Heat wouldn't even be in the Finals if LeBron wasn't carrying them...no s Sherlock.
As long as he doesn't turn the ball over 8 times like a balding TOSB on the team... I'm good
