Parker > Hill > Patty > Cojo
"[Duncan's] longevity is just unbelievable,” point guard Tony Parker said. "He's still working the same at 40 years old as he was when he was a double MVP in (2002 and 2003)."
…
"I want to go to 20 seasons, hopefully, with the Spurs," he said. "I would be 38 by that time. … Twenty seasons will be enough."

Yeah...that sounds like way too long.
He was misquoted. He really said he wanted to gain 20 more pounds.
uh i'd go cojo, parker, hill mills....unless i was ranking undersized 2 guards and then mills goes #1
They aren't smart people so when a joke was made last year, they hold onto it as a religion.
Last years news ...shame yourself. obv hes playing out the contract. If he can't stay healthy he'll retire and he'll be benched as soon as we get a decent full time PG.
1. CoJo
2. MVPatty
3. Hill
Unranked: Porker
1. Cojo (A)- Most consistent, and highly efficient. Added bonus for completely outplaying the overrated starter (who's an allstar)
2a. G. Hill (B+)- Less consistent but highly efficient so far in the playoffs. Bit more responsibility than Patty and is the only consistent help for PG13.
3. Patty (B+) - Like Cojo he has outplayed his starting PG. Great 3 pt shooting. Still slightly dependent on Manu and still a defensive issue.
4. Parker (C) - Least efficient by far against the least talented opponent so far. Sort of inexcusable but that series was a gimmie so we will see this next round.
Anyone else get the feeling George comes back after the following season when he's an UFA?
Worst poster on the site. Congrats man!
It takes a lot to be tier on this site. It's quite the accomplishment.
Good ranking. I agree with you.![]()
I wonder if Parker will be willing to take a backup role in the twilight of his career.
I'm hoping Porker is forced to retire like Nash next summer (2017), so PATFO can bring back G.Hill. (Bird tried to trade him for Teague so he's most likely not going to re-sign w/ the Pacers)
Or "Take 20 more shots per game."
Lol. These agenda minded posters thinking Hill , mills, or cojo could ever demand the respect that defenses gave to Parker.
Parker and the point guard situation needs to be dealt with sooner or later. A championship contender like the Spurs can't afford to have a handicap at the starting PG position. They just can't. The NBA is in a golden age of elite point guards and many of them are hitting their primes. Westbrook, Curry, and Irving will likely stand in the Spurs'way for many playoffs to come.
Parker needs to turn into Kidd 2.0 to be even remotely viable and he doesn't look to be making much progress. He really needed to do it during this season but his 3 or shot is barely there and his defense is as inconsistent as ever. Maybe he can pull it together next season or maybe he just doesn't have the talent to do so.
I highly doubt the Spurs will trade Parker. Best case scenario, the Spurs bring in a young "back up" point guard who will eventually get more and more minutes over Parker until Parker is finally replaced and moved to the bench.
When Parker stops leading this team in assists and isn't the second-best guard in FG% in the league (behind Curry), let's talk.
Spurs in last 4 playoff runs:
6-0 when Parker leads team in scoring for series.
1-1 when Duncan leads team in scoring for series.
1-1 when Kawhi leads team in scoring for series.
I agree. If they don't have a contingency plan to replace Tony Parker or have him come off the bench next season the spurs will have a hard time competing with the Warriors the next few years. It's the one position that they can't afford to to have a weakness in this "elite point guard" era. Especially in Kawhi and Aldridge's prime.
