    Not to mention, Tony was injured after game two of the finals.
    I think Pop learned from that, and sat him out last playoffs when he was injured again... I think he realized that when he's hurt, his production really drops.

    Every player is different, tbh, other guys play with a broken arm or a fracture in the leg and still produce... it's what it is...

    Does Enrique ever just struggle on his own? Seems like it's always just due to 'injuries'.
    Sure, as does Leonard when he isn't complaining of achy hands , blurry vision or tooth aches. It's all relative, tbfh.

    I think Parker's pain threshold is pretty low. However, he doesn't complain about injuries, doesn't make excuses for them and wants to be out there.

    They're not even real injuries. The reason his production drops is bc the level of compe ion increases dramatically (OKC and Miami). Funny how he's never hurting in the early rounds. He could take the challenge and accompanying struggles head on like Manu did in '13 but he's a little sulking got, so it's much more effective to just make up a fake injury for him.

    He used to be a fast healer too, but he's older now... as I said in another thread, the concern with his hamstring now is if it's chronic and if rest is enough...

    He has had hammy injuries for 3 seasons going right now, even after taking the entire summer off... if you connect that with his drop in production when hurt, it's gonna be complicated for the Spurs, especially with Patty out.

    He tried his darnest in the 4th quarter of Game 5 last year too. That was vintage Enrique. I was cracking up at the desperate attempt bc I was certain Kawhi was getting it either way.


    Typical spurs fan "Oh he was great in the fourth ( when the game was all over)"


    Yet, who hit the game tying three and the go ahead hoop when nobody else could make a shot in game 6? If Leonard doesn't play matador defense on Lebron in the final minute of Game 7, Maybe the Spurs comeback to win.

    Not to mention, Tony was injured after game two of the finals.
    Tony took 45 shots, of course no one can make shot since they weren't shooting..BRB player A is 0-2 " he can't make a shot to save his life..

    Tony finally makes 1 out of 10..."if werent for tony" "Tony was the only making shots"

    Does Enrique ever just struggle on his own? Seems like it's always just due to 'injuries'.

    Yeah, for some players "it" just seems fatigue is enough to create bad judgment, much less loss of production.

    I wish every player would make amends for a bad playoffs with a championship the next season, but it's unrealistic, tbh...

    Severe fatigue is much worse than a sore asscheek imo.

    True, not everyone can be a Kawhi.

    Hopefully he can come back healthy before we're done with this stretch of tough games, tbh... we could use some help until Patty comes back...

    Yeah. Hamstring pulls are fickle in nature. They can take months to properly heal from one even if the said player is pain free. Unfortunately, most hamstring injuries are chronic in that once a player has one, chances of a relapse increase dramatically. You can tell that Parker is cognoscente of that fact because his game has altered pretty drastically over the last few years (settles for a lot of mid range jump shots rather than attacking the rim.) He's still a fierce compe or when he's healthy though.

    I'm surprised Manu has been pretty much hamstring pull free for about three years now especially with the way he plays the game.

    It seems to me that Manu's pre-game and even in-game warm up exercises have helped him avoid the repeated hamstrings like he was having for a while.

    Whatever the he is doing, I wish the trainers would make Tony do.

    I'm actually hopeful that Tony can be helped because whatever they did with Gino hamstring issues has clearly worked... time will tell...

    Are you sure you're not Harlem light? Just a Leonard fanboy but, could care less about the Spurs. I don't normally see a spurs fan tear into one of their own only to make another look great by comparison (especially one of the original big three).

    Is he wrong? He struggles vs OKC and it can't possibly have anything to do with Sefolosha's length or Ibaka's rim protection. He struggles vs Miami and it can't possibly have anything with LeBron guarding him at times or with their overall team speed on defense.Nope Enrique is unstoppable. The only thing that can slow him down are injuries.

    Sounds just like Kobe to me tbh.

    So you're telling FKLA

    Parker can't score with a shot blocker in the vicinity?

    And Kawhi is a great player when he gets the ball?

    14 Points with 7 shots and 7 boards ..if only Parker allowed Kawhi to blossom

    17 Points and 11 boards to close the series without Parker and the best defensive play in the playoffs history..

    Hoops just ted on himself.

    If you can't in the toilet, wear pampers yo..
