    Just pre-empting the notion that because a player makes a timely shot, it negates some other player's impact. The greatest example of this might be the Ray Allen 3 in G6. On other forums (and probably this one), what Lebron did in the 2013 Finals was called less than amazing. Not only does he average 25/11/7 for the series, he scored 16 points in the 4th quarter of that game to bring the Heat back. Then he hits the 3 pointer that makes it a 2-point game. But because he missed and Allen makes the last 3 to tie the game, Lebron is branded as getting "bailed out" by a guy that went 3/8 in the game. Then Lebron goes for 37/12/4 in Game 7 including the game-clinching shot. And yet there are people that bring this narrative that somehow Ray Allen was more valuable to that championship. Hey, if that's what you want to believe, go for it.
    Still, what's your problem with it anyway? Are you a Tony Parker's relative, house employee or something?

    Switch that to 6 apg. Miller in the Spurs system should be gravy in getting guys open shots and backdoor cuts for layups and dunks.

    Imagine Miller and Boban if they played together this year in garbage time. Boban would have been scoring off Miller's assists almost every time down the court.

    Yeah, strange thread... it's not like everybody is hoping Tony doesn't play in the playoffs (unless we're closing the Thunder in OKC)... we're all hoping he just isn't the fat turd he was last year, tbh, which I would think any Spursfan would want...
    This.

    If the Spurs make it to the Finals, Andre Miller is going to be irrelevant. Getting past the dubs is basically a championship.

    was just about to say the same thing.

    If you tell me that Andre Miller is in the Finals this year, then things are good.

    June 15, 2003 - Reserve San Antonio Spurs guard Craig "Speedy" Claxton took over for an ineffective Tony Parker in the 2nd half of San Antonio's clinching game six victory over the New Jersey Nets. Claxton contributed some needed mid-range consistency for his squad in route to scoring 13 key points, dishing out 4 assists and earning a game-high +21 plus/minus rating.

    Go to 1:25 of the video.

    If only Speedy hadn't torn his labia and missed like 40 games that season
    even worse, he on the team by turning into a greedy little pig and taking more money to sign with the ty Warriors (who were back then a perennial 20-25 win team).

    lol dude you didn't watch the team back then

    And he earned his payday. We were the ones who signed him to just 1 year.

    what do you mean I didn't? I was 8/9 and alive and well in 2002-03, didn't go to school in the spring semester that year. Only game I missed out of 82 that year was the frickin' Philadelphia away game early in the season (we lost) because it wasn't even on TV.

    Also, speaking of this thread. I remember the year before (01-02 season) when Andre Miller buried us with a game-tying 3 at the buzzer and then preceded to beat us in OT. This was when Miller was with the pre-Lebron Cavs (who donned baby blue and black instead of wine and gold) and who were a perennial 15-win sewer team at the time.

    Joel Meyers: "Unbelievable. Un-be-LIEV-able!"
    Quinn Buckner: "Ugh..."

    Also Bruce Bowen's first game back after being out injured for 33 games with a broken finger. I remember a lot.
