Predictable thread is predictable TBH
Yah, I think we can win individual games when Parker doesn't play, but winning a series is a totally different thing. I think we can, but in the last 3 years, we are:
6-0 in playoff series where Parker leads the team in scoring.
1-2 in playoff series where another player leads the team in scoring.
That's exactly my point. We need him in great shape not just for the playoffs, but the brutal run we have starting in about two weeks for now.
That's why these two weeks are probably the last we have for him to get some rest.
Can you give us his TS%.
Suggested it four years ago.
He was terrible this game, and to be fair to him, he had carried a large scoring burden without Kawhi 3 games, Manu a month and Tim. He increased his scoring and burden these past February and on defense, while he declined, he still had a burden because since he is the weak link, everyone goes at him. He gets posted up by bigger guys all the time, etc. For sure he could use the rest. I am sure that is one of the reasons for Miller being here.
Miller obviously doesn't have chemistry enough that Pop feels comfortable just sitting Tony down, but he can benefit from rest. I am not sure with our tough schedule coming up how it will sit with Pop. I am also not really familiar with Andre. I think he should start and not Mills and the reason is simple. Our bench already is lacking its 3 stones:
Diaw is missing TBH
Manu the injury
If you move Patty to the SL... the bench has no iden y. You really might as well (and no trolling) just play Boban and Miller and build which guys fit around those two. Boban can and will score or get fouled, Miller should develop chemistry with him... figure out your other guys around them.
Trade him for Curry while we can imo.
Parker's guy shot 5/13. Try again.
That's why his minutes should be reduced like tonight. We want a healthy Parker in the playoffs. Let him start, but let Pop reduce his minutes when necessary.
exactly.... smh playerfansThat's why his minutes should be reduced like tonight. We want a healthy Parker in the playoffs. Let him start, but let Pop reduce his minutes when necessary.
And here we thought Curry was.
tbh. Tony sacrificing his minutes for the better of the team is very commendable.
He's doing exactly what everyone on this forum wanted. But of course everyone goes all Russell Westbrook spastic whenever we are down in a game.
You mf, you
EN all game in the game thread:Spurs need heart, come back Manu
Almost, he's right behind Parker in FG%.And here we thought Curry was.
There's no doubt we're a much better team with Manu... numbers bear that out... but what does that has to do with wanting Tony healthy?You mf, you
EN all game in the game thread:
Nothing. Just recognizing your subtle trolling goods, tbh
A Pizza Hut combo with extra cheese and olives is arriving soon if anybody wants some.
Brownies too.
I'll bring the beer, tbh...
Porker's game isn't suited for being a bench player. Just treat him like 2013-14: Bench him if he's sleepwalking & give the 3rd string PG an early burn if there is a shotblocker on the other team.
I agree OP. Maybe not sit him since our schedule is about to get brutal, but cut some of his minutes. , if GS increases their lead, it sit him a few games. We're guaranteed the 2 seed if we can't catch GS
Even if hes scoring points, hes leaking them. Hes a gaping hole on defense. He needs to come off the bench pending matchups. You cant just start him because he "averages" better. But then we have Mills who is a shortie as well. We dont really have an athletic PG with length to play decent defense.
Mills is worse defensively man to man. The benefit to him is that he's not ball dominant like Tony is, plays off the ball well, actually he's better off the ball than with it. His shooting provides spacing for post players like LMA and Kawhi.
Pizza, beer and brownies.
This will work.
