Oh and by the way, Parker took another shot to his thigh(?) in the 4th. So he's probably even more gimpy by next game.
Parker is handing people there asses and isnt even bothering to make a list of names... hes doing it to fast. Im not on board with NVE, although once in a while he buries a three... most of the time he tries to make music off the rim and hear the pretty "BONK!" sound.
I say try Beno for 3 of NVE's minutes in game 6 and see how well he does.. if he does well, let him keep it up.. but put him in as SG, not PG.
Tony is rockin... Tim is dominating every center they throw at him... I have nothing to complain about except... When the did the Spurs turn into the Pheonix goddamned Suns? Arent we a defensive team? Not a "Lets try to make 150 points!!!" team?

11-24 is over 50%? And if he can't walk why is he running the point? If he's healthy enough to play he's healthy enough to take the heat for being selfish. I'm sorry he's hurting, but I don't see how that's an excuse for not passing the ball.
And the whole lot of you are idiots.

so AJ goes to the zone. Smart guy.
I give up.

Ah a Supersonics fan.
How many ping pong balls you guys got??
Go away...
Parker eats and s guys like Ridenour and Watson for breakfast and you have the balls to come here and rip him up after giving 27 points in a clutch game?
YOU.
GO AWAY>
What I want out of Parker is 30 points in the first three quarters. For whatever reason (youth, game plan, size, lack of jumper, health, whatever) he isn't a fourth quarter player. That's when I want Manu and Tim to take over.
But in the first three quarters, Parker has to keep the Spurs afloat by scoring. I don't know if Spurs fans understand that the Mavs are daring Parker to beat them. They are sending no help at all. None. If Parker doesn't score around 30, the Spurs have no chance.
His passing isn't great right now but I know Pop has hammered it into his head that he has to score against the Mavs. If you are going to criticize Parker, you can knock his decision-making or even his team defense awareness off the ball, but he has to shoot this much. The Mavs are forcing it.
Actually Parker was 6-10. Duncan was 3-3. Parker was 0-4 in the second quarter. Duncan was 8-8. Parker was 5-9 in the third. Duncan was 1-2. Parker was 0-1 in the fourth. Duncan was 1-6. Parker took two more shots than Duncan in the second half. I did watch the game, where were you?
And you, like everyone else, are an idiot.
God, the poor kid can't get a break!!!!Oh and by the way, Parker took another shot to his thigh(?) in the 4th. So he's probably even more gimpy by next game.
Sometimes, you gotta call your own number.
We could have easily lost it like a repeat of the last 2 games... we would have paid for those mistakes...Parker's allowed to make turnovers when he's handling point...but those were just ugly.. I know Nash had an ugly game too last night....but we really blew a good run of a 10 point leads thanks to those turnovers...Tim also had a turnover there too...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!

I'll go with Pop on this one "if we can get tony to play in the 2nd half like he does in the 1st it would help us out a lot"
That's the problem in this series. The mavs forcing Spurs to do something. It should be other way
I know Parker is well-intentioned but he needs to pace himself I guess now that he's limited by injury for the long haul of 48 minutes...Mavs got so many second chance points in that run. They saw us not scoring and they took it to us.
Spurs fans are classic. The Mavs aren't leaving anyone on the perimeter to help when Parker has the ball. Who is he supposed to pass it to? It's not like he's driving and he's missing wide open shooters on the perimeter.
If you want to say Tony needs to sack up and stop talking about how injured he is, I could see where you're coming from. But to say he's not passing enough shows you don't understand the defense the Mavs are playing.
WHAT??? Everybody has bad decisions! Tell me where he was overly bad compared to anybody else.
Defense Awareness, where was it bad, what juncture of the game did him make a bad decision. Sure he made bad mistakes, but to say he made more than anybody esle is stupid.
ing idiots. I want to bash you all with a cheerstick made out of lead.
Parker is human, ya' know.
Manny, Pop was critical of Tony during his post game interview. I'm a big parker fan, but think he can gives the spurs a little more. We are going to need it.
It happens--Nash, Bibby, Billups, even Lebron...you gotta take the good (27 points) with the bad.
Hey, tonight is DIRK'S night for self-mutilation.
And I agree, why are the Spurs submitting to playing Dallas' brand of b-ball? those 10 points came and went in the blink of an eye! Not usually so with defensive monsters like the Spurs. Tough matchup, but Pop adjusted by Game 6 with us, expect it will happen at Mav's too.
If Parker was 100% he is able to deny penetration and shut down drivers like Harris and Terry.
He just doesn't have the legs so its a freakin shootout.
Tony isn't even talking pubically aout how injured he is. I am.
Exactly!!!!!!!!!!!!! Why hang hin out to dry when everybody else is making the same mistakes????????????
I believe that was in reference to Tony's health for the most part (not completely). After the podium interviews Pop said that they need to get Tony health enough that he can main his same energy level in both halves.
Tony's worst quarter was actually the second quarter (shooting wise).
How am I hanging him out to dry? Aren't I in this thread defending him?
