Deron Williams > Tony Parker

[VaSpursFan]

deron is perfect for sloan's system. he's got 3 solid scoring options apart from him in Okur, Boozer/Millsap, and AK. Deron's scoring is a bonus, when the others get going it opens up opportunities for him.

TP has 2 real scoring options in TD and Manu. Until we change the construct of this team and get some other scoring options, we need Tony to score to give us 3 legit scoring options on this team.

Tony Parker would piece Deron williams ass up!!! No Contest!!!!!!!!!

[ginobili fan]

deron will be better no question in one or two years

But the problem is:in one or two years the spurs will be champions again,and again,the jazz will suck because boozer,kiri will get injured,then they'l become an average team,and tony will be all-star again,again and deron will be better.
Then we don't care ,you can go with the jazz and their superstar deron if you want.And I think it would even be better for you,and the most important,for the spurs community.

dewho? Put Deron in the Spurs and we are out of the playoffs.

He looks good cause Jazz are making their shots. Put him in the Spurs and he will look like Beno with worse Defense.

Other than game-winning shots, Deron is really only outpacing Parker in one key stat and that is with assists. The Jazz run plays that lead to more assist opportunities for the lead guard. Deron worked with John Stockton over the summer and clearly improved his game. What better person to work with who knows the Jazz system?

As mentioned many times before, the Spurs PGs will never have high assist totals with the current offensive sets. Just because the lead guard enters the offense doesn't mean he will get the majority of the assist opportunities, especially on a team where the extra pass is emphasized.

Deron does have a terrific ability to hit the big shot at the end of games. He's helped the Jazz win several games with his clutch, confident mentality.
