    ....toward Tony. I still think a lot of it is ridiculous or misplaced.

    Haven't read the whole article, but the third paragraph explains why players like Irving (and by extention Parker) are disliked. Although, probably not at the irrational level like this place.

    Players with offense-only reputations are always divisive, and the score-first point guard is a particularly distrusted basketball archetype, because of how their on-floor inclinations seem to run counter to the nature of the position. In real life, people who hoard things for themselves just seem off. In basketball, the point guard’s primary role is to share.
    This is why Irving drives people insane.

    Except Kyrie is clutch and still has speed and mad skills.

    Kyrie doesn't constantly the bed in big games.

    Kyrie is still a team focused player, he gets joy in his team mates succeeding and doesn't sit glum on the bench when a player who isn't himself hits a game winner.

    Kyrie doesn't his team mates missus either.

    Kyrie doesn't think he's something he isn't.

    This just in, our PG is 34 going on 35. By the way it was an emotional affair, Brent should have taken care of his business anyways, that's on him.

    No one hated Tony in his prime. We just disliked him going Enrique Porker in the playoffs these past 2 years.

    But because the crew lacks basic communication skills they fail to differentiate their attacks and motives and wildly inflate the impact of Parker on the team ( o, second seed last year? Top 5 team? )


    One of the basic lessons of adulthood is not to complain about things beyond your control. Most Parker haters fail to follow this.

    Do you think Porker was the reason for any of that? The Big 3 were , and you think Porker was a big reason for that 67 wins possibly 70? That was all ing Kawhi.

    Good article, b4 LeBron, Irving was just a scorer in a woefully bad team and without LeBron he would go back to just flash no substance. It's known LeBron is the real point in that team. Despite his incredible talent as a scorer, even LeBron has come down on Kyrie for his ballhogging ways, and he can get in straight up chucking mode.

    I think it's proven Tony doesn't make this team better when it counts. I want to see what Pop does this season.

    Pass first point guards like Stockton, Kidd, and Nash are losing point guards.

    Score first point guards are winners. Don't know why they have bad reputations, tbh. I guess it's a vanilla thing to do nowadays.

    As for the Tony hate... It's only on Spurstalk a place where Manure s come to post ty takes

    Anyways. We can't keep relying on him and LMA to lead the team in scoring past the first round... Some role players gotta step up. Not sure we have one on the roster.

    My only thing against him is his propensity to ing anything that moves to the detriment of his own team and he traumatized poor Eva Longoria. Still, in basketball speak, we gotta root for the guy AND Manu, TGY.

    One of them outplayed Lebron in the Finals and swept him. The other got carried to a le by him.

    Lol, BPM? The stats that ranked Boban and Simmons as better than Aldridge these playoffs? Wow. The stat that ranked Danny Green as our second best player? Haha, and you're "done"? Like that stat proves something? Lol.
