And to think I was actually feeling a little sorry for aaronstampler for getting called out in the other thread.
Leopards and spots, I guess.
Manu got a bruise on the shoulder. He'll be fine to play saturday unless they just really want to rest him. Definitely good to go next week.

You know, saying one player is better than another at something or asking for a different lineup isn't necessarily a putdown. This is what frustrates me so much about this board. You literally cannot say anything other than "Tony is awesome" without getting for it.
If he's such a great scorer, how come Pop doesn't leave him alone with four scrubs? That's all I'm asking. If he's the better scorer, then what's the harm?
Lots of people on this board have the capacity to objectively analyze when and why Spur players are having good or bad games.
You absolutely cannot, and everybody sees through you.
I already said Tony played well and Manu did not. I've said it numerous times. I don't know why it's so hard for you to comprehend that.
And it's hilarious you bring up objectivity to me when, as I've pointed out ad nauseum, that whenever I make any point with this Tony/Manu thing all the objective experts out there who aren't Spurs fans or Argentines are on my side.
And then you've been spending the last 10-20 posts trying to make excuses for why Tony played well and Manu did not. Guaranteed if the situation was reversed you'd just be taking the opportunity to slag Tony and worship Manu.
Not really. Because if Manu played well and Tony played like crap I doubt Ducks would've started a thread to attack me and that TimVP and TPark would've joined in.
I've not started one thread attacking Tony or any poster on here when the reverse has happened. When Manu plays well and the Spurs win I sign off and go to bed.
What's the matter, cat got your tongue? All you have to do is check my profile under "threads started." Go find one where I start a thread attacking Tony or a poster. I dare you.
Please don't paint me with the same brush as the others. That's all I ask. If I complain about something, it's not personal and it's not hate. When I write something, I have the meat to back it up.
What do you do when Parker plays poorly?
I don't start threads.

instigator!
I didn't see much wrong with his comments on this thread. Just about lineups.
Though maybe some don't like how he asks, "Why can't Tony play with four scrubs?" I guess...
but I think he was making a point more about alternating the big three??
i dunno. You can't win, if your gonna be reading posts for insinuations I guess. It goes both ways.
I think Manu > TP
Not much better but better.
But I am upset each time Tony as a great game some people here need to say. Ok he has a good game but he is <<<<< Manu. And if he played more minutes as a center he would be <<<< Elson.
When Manu or Tim have a poor game (every players have some) you don't see threads pop up to bash them. So why does Parker receives so much hate? I really don't get it.
That's it exactly. I hate how this Manu/Tony thing has degenerated on this forum to the point where you can't say anything negative about either without people going nuts.
You say anything bad about Manu and 1/3 of the board gets upset. You say anything bad about Tony and another 1/3 gets upset. Then there's the other 1/3 who call themselves "Spurs fans" who act all pious and self-righteous and go ape when either get ripped.
Um, because Parker is starting. How much time does Duncan play with four scrubs?
You mean like NBA coaches? I think Manu is the better player per minute, but the most objective experts already let their voice be heard earlier this season.
I mean people like Hollinger, Dave Berri or the folks over at 82games.com. The numbers geeks basically. There's no question who any of them think has been the better player so far this year.
And if you are so objective, find me an aaronstampler post from prior to this game where you said Tony played well and Manu played poorly.
Man this discussion is annoying
well I'm the main content provider on two separate Spurs blogs and I recap every game for pages and pages, so pretty much every game it's happened, I've written it.
Any posts here on this forum?
I'm pretty sure the flak Aaronstampler is getting on here is "little" bit unwarranted.
I mean, I don't think he's on the level of that one poster, "Telecommguy" or whatever the his name was.
But this thread was supposed to be about Tony! not Manu and Pop.
I swear people act like I'm that one guy who said Manu should be higher than Gervin on the list of all time Spurs.
I don't know if I've had any post that says the two together. But I know I've complemented Tony before on here and ripped Manu before.
yeah, I do think it's kind of lame on the forum how the fact that some posters get singled out, other "fanboys" of either Manu or Tony have to "mind" their words for fear of being labeled a whatever.
Walking on eggs s is pretty lame.
I have no problem with Manu fans posting to say how great he is.
I have no problem with Tony fans posting to say how great he is.
I have problem with fans posting to say how bad his one thinking it makes the other better.
