Avery on ESPN

[Agloco]

Anybody catch Avery last nite on ESPN saying that CP3 the Gay Protocol is the best PG in the NBA.... WTF!!!!

When they asked him about Tony he said he was number #3

That D. Willams was #2.

Avery is such a I'm gald Dallas fired your ass, you give no Spurs love whatsoever. They should take your *&#@ Jersey off the rafters at the AT &T Center.

Enjoy your gig at ESPN you litle !

Tony Parker pretty much carried us all year long!
He will be a very key leader for us on this run
Congrats Spurs '09 Southwest Champs!!!

You can't really be upset at all the commentators for thinking that way. It's not just Avery, I've heard this from more than a few now. When you think about the Spurs pretty much everyone will tell you that Tony is, at best, the second best player on the team. And a healthy portion will argue that he's the third best (but I won't go there.....).

With those perceptions in mind it's not hard to see why no one thinks Tony is the best in the league. CP3 and D Will are easily the best players on their respective teams, hence all of the love.

If Timmy and Manu were out for a season for some reason, then Tony would begin to creep into the best PG conversation.

I got no problem with Tony Parker being #3. I think CP3 is probably #1. He passes really well, has a good outside shot, can drive into the lane, and plays pretty solid defense. Parker being in the top 3 isn't a bad thing at all.

So you're upset because Avery doesn't agree with your pick because you believe Tony is the best and he believes Chris Paul is and Deron is number 2. I'm a spurs fan and I totally agree with Avery so I guess according to you I'm the same as Avery. I'm so glad your opinion doesn't hold much water either about me, Avery or the top pg.

I'll cry......

And then ask for his statute to be removed for the arena.
