Dejounte or MVPatty is starting next year

[Mikeanaro]

Typical dumb logic hand picking games with a long career like he's had. Historically, he is one of the best percentage scoring guards in NBA history. But keep comparing him to a player that should spend next year in the D League.

Hand picking? this is where it matters as you said, in the elimination series and he was awful, Spurs lost most of those important games because he had woeful performances.
Are you calling Speedy Claxton dumb?

[Mikeanaro]

1/12 in the games that matter.

Thats worlds apart, the shot that changed everything.

[dabom]

Murray couldn't own D league. Bobbie was at least an NBA Player. Don't compare him to Parker, he isn't on that level.

Murray has played great in games he's started in the NBA. I'm not gonna flip about summer league.

Did boobie even make it past his rookie contract?

[Russ]

If KA was dominant in the SL and Murray can barely make a basket, then what the does that tell you about Murray's talent?

Or the Summer League . . .

Played great? You either didn't watch him get his pocket picked by Beverly or you are full of . Murray has been subpar except maybe three or four regular season games and only one game against a playoff team. He sucked against GS and looked like he didn't belong in summer league games. , he even got sent to the D Leagie in favor of an Undrafted rookie.

Parker had played big in the playoffs consistently. Has he had bad shooting games? Sure, but he's also lit up the likes of Kidd, Payton, Billups, and LeBron (hitting a game winner against him in the finals). So bagging on Parker while sucking off Murray for an empty resume is the epitome of a dumbass "fan."

Murray is the next biggest player for the Spurs. Either you don't know basketball, or you're being a got.

Stop sucking off Murray. You don't know 0-10 in summer league.

So is it Murray or Mills that owns your heart?

[Brazil]

also Dejounte better raw talent than Parker

I like the kid (drawing any conclusion from SL is quite pointless anyway) but nobody has any idea of what is his ceiling... comparing him to Parker already

Check out what Parker's play in his first summer league. There was a reason teams wanted to trade for him then.

Check out lebron's summer league performances...that had ppl thinking he would be a bust

But we can evaluate potential...he has crafty ball skills, just needs to be more careful...he is really quick, and he is tall for a pg...with those physical tools, he has a higher ceiling than tony who never really shot well enough to have confident perimeter shooting games consistently in the playoffs, and who has always been horrible defensively

[Ed Helicopter Jones]

I think you start Murray and let Mills flourish with the second unit, per par.

The regular season will give the coaching staff a lot of opportunity to see if Murray is enough or if they'll need to go shopping in February.

[duncan2k5]

Wait...did that guy say Tony parker lit up Jason Kidd in the playoffs? The same Jason Kidd they had to bench parker and play speedy claxton against? Then that same summer throw everything at Jason Kidd to get him on the team? GTFOH...Parker is overrated big time... Even this playoffs ppl forget he had multiple games where he didnt score at all, and had at least one with no points or assists...yet they act as if he was lighting it up...we probably sweep these teams with a decent point guard...analytics had him as literally the worst starting pg in the league last year...and I dont think thats counting his horrible defense

[spurs10]

Well it's going to be interesting to see if they keep Patty on the bench. Not knowing who is on the bench yet makes it hard to say. I see Gay playing back up to Kawhi early in the season, but inevitably can see him on the floor with Kawhi in some small ball lineups.

It would be great to see Patty take this opportunity and run with it, while I see great potential in Murray. I'm not concerned about SL, but it is going to be a whole new look for us at the start of the season. Who knows if Tony can return as early as January and if he will at the level he was when he went down.

You're probably the worst poster on ST.

You're probably the worst poster on ST.

I may agree with you but he has some points regarding Tony.
Fact the spurs were forced to patty Claxton because Parker couldn't play with Kidd.
Fact spurs pursued Kidd hard.
Fact he was the worst starting pg by analytics last year.
Fact he only played 5 good games during the playoffs one average and two bad ones.

I don't think he is all that bad, but we have to agree that it's not sure how and when he will recover, and a solid to the team would have been to take this season off, and return next year.
This team is trying to be a contender, not a recovering Clínic.
