If Marks is needed we're ed. If Beno is needed, it means VanX's elbow is out. Beno makes the roster.
Regarding Barry: Pop should possibly try to trade some other players if that is a motivator.![]()

I'm sorry you had a bad day.
That is a no brainer, Beno.![]()
Marks is the favorite followed by Beno Oberto X and Barry Rasho
Hahaha Penny Hardaway said his career isn't over. That is hilarious.
It only took a complete blowout for him to have one game worthy of his contract.
Too bad Darko couldn't even do that.
He hit timely shots in the playoffs. I'd expect a Pistons fan to know that.
It's nice that Fin had a bad shooting night when he wasn't needed. Now that it's out of his system he can shoot well next time it matters.

I think he owned the suns in the first part of the game, and I think the parker hate is past it's believability.
The kid has stepped waaay up this year.
I know, but if TD in this part of the game donīt shot any time, this is a big problem
I believe that Tony would have to involve all the team, and not to play one on one during some passages of the game
Sometimes Tony plays like Kobe, and thatīs good but you canīt win a Championship in this way
Specially if TD is 8 fo 10 and Manu is 5 of 6 from the field, like in this game
8 of 11 and 6 of 8 respectively if you care to be accurate.
And when Tony is 8 of 13 outside the paint against a defense that is packing the lane against guard penetration and Duncan, this is not the time to complain about Tony.
No matter how well Tony shoots, I think Tony taking 21 shots to Tim's 11 and Manu's 8, when both Tim and Manu are shooting as well as Tony, is putting too many eggs in Tony's basket.
It seems at times Tony keeps dribbling looking for his shot, whereas with with Nash, it seems that he keeps dribbling in order to make a play for another shooter.
Sounds like nit-picking, but more than one of us has observed that at times, it seems like it's all Tony, all the time, on too many possessions.
However, this his first year playing at this high level, and I trust he will settle down later and better spread the ball to others who are scoring as well as he is, as one of his next, not-too-distant challenges will be when the defense concentrates on and succeeds in shutting Tony down. There will come a day when stopping Tony will be the best way of stopping the Spurs.

I think there is validity to a degree boutons but let's face it, the last 3 games (Lakers, Clips and Suns) those teams sagged bigtime, often double and triple teaming Timmy. It left Tony wide open time after time after time. He showed everyone he can make them pay which was a paradigm shift in Tony's game. I mean a major change for the better, an aspect that Spurs fans had only seen flashes of before this week.
There were a few times Tony dribbled and didn't see anything so he took the shot, so I'll give you that.
Manu and Tim have the seniority to demand the ball if they feel like Tony is hogging it. They could both see he was on fire last night and let him run with it. Plus it's nice to show the rest of the league that they're going to have to come up with a Plan B as to how to defend Parker, if this whole jump shot thing really does start to take off for him.
