cant even dominate farmar
i honestly thought he would do really well in this series. oh well.
So who takes his minutes?
Oh. that guy is not on our team.
Our guards are weak. That's the way it is.
And the bottom line is he has the best handles on the team.
We have zero chance without him. Keep complaining. Like we have not been over this 1000Xs
When we get a better PG let me know.

I'm not a parker hater and in fact get tired of the Parker hate on this board...
But, it doesn't look like he has much left in the tank. I understand we run the offense through Kawhi and LMA now, but it doesn't seem like he can get the corner anymore. There was a play this evening when they passed it up court and it was him with Farmer in front of him and I think it was Zbo kind of back in the lane. 2 years ago, Tony turns that into a one man fast break. Tonight he pulled the ball into the corner and waited for everyone.
We really need him to be a legit third option, especially as the playoffs go on.
2 points on 1-8 shooting, 7 assists but 3 turnovers. was -11 (the worst on the team), patty was +14 (second to boris).
All-Star Tony Parker has been gone for over 2 years now. Every now and then he has a decent game, but they are waaay too far in between.
I hope he retires sometime in the next 14 months.

Oh I don't know, only runs the offense far better than anyone else on the team? Once again, he leads the team in assists, which is the only thing a point guard is supposed to do. Not many point guards historically led their team in scoring for like 7 years in a row. Sorry you guys were spoiled with that for so long and still expect that after 15 years in the league (even when you complain when he does). Can you imagine Duncan leading the team in scoring in his 15th season? Neither can I.
TP + PM vs MEM = 4 pts, 4 TOs
Tony has degraded into "no-score-first AND no-pass-first" PG
The big problem.... Spurs don't win a championship with Parker playing badly.
My take, he's not motivated to play well when he doesn't really have to.
I think Tony has become totally disinterested in playing anymore. He's not into the team and game. He's had a great career, is very wealthy, and now he's cheating the team by disinterestedly going through the motions. Even Tim still watches the game from the bench, applauds, cheers on his teammates, while detached Tony's eyes-glaze-over.
Patty had a pretty crappy stat line. Shows how meaningless +- is.
Except that he leads the team in assists pretty much every game. He's a pass-first point guard now like everyone wanted.
Lol, these guys use single-game +/- when it's convenient but go to raw stats when their guy puts them up. If they have neither, they find some other advances metric. Goal posts.
+/- isn't the big deal. just thought i'd point out the difference.
Hate to admit it but it's gotten to the point where you have to accept that he's probably our weakest link right now. It's scary to think how good this team could be just with a 2nd tier level PG like Eric Bleadsoe, Brandon Knight or Jeff Teague instead of him.
We all knew he wasn't going to age as well as Tim and Manu due to playing style but he shouldn't be as bad as he is right now. Management certainly didn't expect this drop off, taking into consideration the contract they gave him. Makes you wonder what the Spurs will do if Tony doesn't regain his form. I don't want to see him ever being traded but I also don't want to see the team getting sabotaged because of loyalty. Maybe a contract reconstruction ala Jefferson. Is that even possible?
Tony's PER36 in the Memphis series:
15.8/7.7 on 42%. Obviously not his best PER36 numbers, but you're not getting those PER36 numbers from anyone else on the team for scoring and distributing.
"Look, he's Argie. He must hate Parker"
Check my posting history son.
What about talking about his PER? 12,85
He's 86 out of 158 players, and talking about PGs, he's 19 out of 33.
Oh, you're using the stat that has Boban and David West above Aldridge? How about no.What about talking about his PER? 12,85
He's 86 out of 158 players, and talking about PGs, he's 19 out of 33.
averaged 9.8 points, 4.8 assists, 2.3 turnovers against a stacked memphis team
I hope Parker comes around for the rest of playoffs.
But, what's that old saying about hope? - "Put your hopes in one hand, and in the other...see which one fills up first."
Didn't need to score in blow outs, made timely baskets, ran the spurs admittedly bad offense. I mean I grade him as a c+ type grade. No fail no honor role.averaged 9.8 points, 4.8 assists, 2.3 turnovers against a stacked memphis team
Pretty decent for 22 minutes a game...significantly more assists than anyone else on the team because he's looking to distribute first obviously. Could have easily scored 15-20 but at some point we have to translation the offense, which he's doing perfectly. Parker dropped 25/10 on really high efficiency on a much better Grizzlies team in a WCF sweep.averaged 9.8 points, 4.8 assists, 2.3 turnovers against a stacked memphis team
Parker had by far the worst on/off numbers of any player in the Memphis series, while posting a 47.5 True Shooting %..the worrisome part isn't just his struggles, but also that he had the highest usage % of any Spur in the 1st round, too..
Hopefully he was just coasting vs. the poor compe ion..
