Classic.
jcrod has the IQ of a Mavfan.
so u're saying u disagree?? what pumps defense up then? care to tell me?
Again, IF YOU READ MY LAST POST. IN yrs past, yes, he's disappeared, but this yr in the first round and all yr round he's been the best player. He's been hurt all this series and laying it all on the line.
Tell me what game, besides game two when everybody sucked and game 4 when he pulled his groin. He's disappeared. Manu has DISAPPEARED more than Tony. PROVE ME WRONG!
Si Guey. I'm not the one who said offense creates defense![]()
I admit that because he's such a good scoring guard, he can easily draw the defense in and kick back to trailers. Tony did drop a couple of excellent dimes to Tim. That behind-the-back pass to Tim was really sweet.
You guys are all idiots.
Parker was 50% healthy today.
50%.
Pop asked him to take 25 shots and continue to shoot/drive himself early and often to try to get the Mavs in foul trouble.
He is doing exactly what he's asked.
I knew there'd be no way that he'd have anything left in the 2nd half for how strong he came out in the first quarter.
Most of the Spurs, if they had Tony's injuries, wouldn't even play.
So please, get a clue.
He's listening to his coach.
That's not true. Not in POs.
well...I don't agree Parker's offensive game is the problem...
I think good offense leads to good defense and vice versa...A lot of ill-advised jumpshots lead to the other team getting the rebound and getting fastbreak points...hence the Defensive lapses.
50% healthy and nearly 30 points and Spurs fans are complaining.
I like Parker's heart...and effort, but why Does Parker have to listen to Pop's suggestion to a Tee...when I watch the game there are so many bad decisions he takes when he could have easily deferred the ball instead of forcing a Lay Up...I don't know why you find it so hard to apologize for Parker's shortcomings....It's a bit Homerish. IF he's HURT he has to do what he can and not do what he could have done if he were 100 PERCENT...He should adjust his role...Pop can only coach him so much. He needs to step up...and quit saying "pop tells me so. so I do it" well if it's not getting good results CUT POP's DECISION and DISH out that .
everyone its not our O that is the problem its our DEFENSE
Pop runs this team in case you didn't notice.
Players break plays and get benched.
That's how it works.
Tonight Pop's head almost exploded when Tony did the behind the back pass to Tim for a dunk.
I like it when he broke that play...We need more room to flow...The micromanaged Rotations have been killing me this year...Manu made his own decision off that broken play in game 5 in the Finals with that pass to Horry...
I'm not trying to deny the good Tony brings...which are the quick leads and answering baskets and consistent scoring...but sometimes he makes costly turnovers...like today--that give the opponents opportunities on offense, because he tries to force iso-plays at times. His ball handling leaves a lot of motion to be desired at some stretches...when there isn't a good open look for him.
We had a 10 point lead that could have been sustained with our O...we did show signs of D today. And Tony made some mistakes handling the ball...which cost us an outcome that could have been a more comfortable margin.
I think NVE's time should be cut in half and say what I always say "PUT BENO IN!!!"
When Parker is resting and NVE isnt in a groove, test Beno... see what happens.
Half our bench will be rusted out s s by the time we get to the finals.
Like I said, 50% healthy.
No one else noticed how gimpy he was in the 2nd half?
Unbelievable.
never seen a moron give up a 10pt lead on 4 lousy possessions and cant play to pressure down the stretch, time release beno!
Fine he gets a pass for that. In general Parker's done this even not gimpy. Pop is at fault for not reading his players then..He shouldn't have been handling the ball if he started to hurt...Manu and Barry should have, just like how Pop adjusted last year when Parker wasn't delivering. Wasn't he also hurt last year sometime in the Postseason...
Parker 36:57
Duncan 44:28
Parker 11-24
Duncan 13-19
Duncan was 11-11 in the first half, he had Keith Van Freakin' Horn guarding him for a while, he played seven and a half more minutes than TP. So why did TP take five more shots? And please, enough with the "Pop told him to take 25 shots" bull . Unless you can find me a quote of Pop telling TP to take it 1 on 4, I'm not buying it. Parker once again had more turnovers than assists, he single-handedly caused some point swings in the Mav's favour thanks to blown layups, turnovers and not getting his teammates involved.
Bowen 0-0
Finley 5-8
Barry 2-2
Van Exel 0-2
Horry 0-1
Except for Finley, nobody outside the big three got involved, at all. Contrary to what the resident blind homers seem to believe, the big three can't shoulder the entire load themselves. The strongest bench in the NBA got the Spurs 63 wins. Tony needs to get other players involved to open up the floor for the big three. If Duncan doesn't go nuts and dominate the paint the Spurs would have been screwed.
Oh yeah, and you're all idiots.
Pardon me for jumping in but you guys won this game, didn't you?
Parker creates more turnovers because he handles the ball so often. (I know, b-ball 101 but just had to throw it in)
Proper defense is inspired by good offense. Defending the basket is a natural reaction to scoring points, isn't it? It's much more difficult to guard your guy when you are thinking about that last turnover, but that's just me.
Next thread that reads fire Pop I'm jumping in with my negative diatribe on Adelman, and you'll all be so grateful!

Damn, what else do you want him to do??? The guy shoots over 50% and you're ing. Tell me what guy did you want him to pass it off to who shoots better???????????????
Parker was 6-8 in the first qtr. In the second half he gave way to TIM. WATCH THE FING GAME. He didn't limit Tim's production!!
Shoots over 50%
scores 27
hes out there can barely walk.
ANd you s are ripping him up.
You people should be put in the ing nut house.
I'm not even saying that Tony has had a great series. He hasn't.
He's made mistakes, he's gotten tunnel vision on occasion, he's missed easy shots.
But I also know that he's doing all he can. He got hurt in Game 6 against the Kings in his left thigh. He got a worse bruise on his right thigh in Game 1 of this series. He wore heavy pads in Games 2 and 3. He pulled his groin in game 4. He wore thigh pads and some groin pad tonight. I was told by someone close to him that he was about 50% good to go today. He gave it all he could early in the game to try to get the Spurs off to a good start on offense and get the Mavs in foul trouble (DHarris got 2 quick fouls).
When you guys are talking about the 10 point lead dissappearing, that's when the Mavs went to zone (if you didn't notice). That killed the Spurs.. they didn't handle it well.
Tony and Tim got the Spurs off to a great start, Manu and Bruce brought them home.
Team work.
BTW,
anyone that DIDN't SEE that this guy was limping badly in the second half, needs to buy a damn clue.
Dude left it ALL on the floor tonight.
I think Parker played fabulous for being only 50%
Hopefully he sleeps in tommarow, gets treatment, gets on the plane, off the plane, treatment treatment, lovin from a hot bad named Eva, tad more treatment, then game day.
27 points and hes dissapeared.
God you people are morons.
