The Spurs will make the playoffs even when Pop leaves, it'll be up to RC or whoever is in the FO to at least field a decent team. Spurs will probably linger at 6 or 7 maybe even 8 seed but still in.
Im only OK with the Spurs lingering in the 6-9 seed range if the NBA moves to the alternative draft structure. I don't want the spurs to be one of those teams meddling in mediocre city for years like the Jazz of the last 15 years. If the NBA doesn't move to a system that incentivizes trying to win/improve, the Spurs need to suck for a few years to get better through the draft. If that means moving Tony I'm fine with it.
Spurs will never let Parker go
Parker will retire a Spur UNLESS Parker asks the Spurs for a trade himself.
this is Parker's team and we go as far as he takes us.
Exactly. His ability will surely decline in a couple seasons
Vet min or Parker can kick rocks.
Agree. Plus his game still heavily relies on speed.
Parker will be 33 by the time Timmy retires. We better build around some 21-25 year olds with star potential
i agree. people are already handing in their 2 year notice in threads talking about it. bandwagon mfs i tell ya..
Yes, because that's so easy.
And you propose building around an elitist, aging star with questionable loyalties instead? Good luck with that.
I propose riding a multiple time selection for All NBA player into the ground before we slip into the Dark Ages. I'd rather have 3-5 more playoff years before that stops for a half decade, or more.
My guess is Parker gets his extension but demands a trade at some point after Duncan and Ginobili retire (assuming they are in fact on their last contracts and assuming we don't magically acquire the player(s) to contend shortly after they do.
Players a lot of the time get their cake and eat it. They get their extension and then demand and get traded. But maybe Parker will gut it out here and stick with a team that will probably only be a fringe playoff team. Though with as stacked as the West is and probably will continue to be I'm not so sure they'll even be a playoff team sans Duncan & Manu.
well let him go. he tried this bull a few years ago in the off season throwing hints about wanting to leave when he thought we would never see the finals again. i just never liked his game. i like all he has done for the organization, but stupid ass people that DON'T watch spurs game buy into the hype of the 2007 finals. tim duncan was just being a good teammate and letting him eat. kobe would never let anyone dominate their man on HIS team. , he didn't even pass the ball to shaq in 2004 when he was shooting 60%. and parker was out there killing guys like gibson and pavlovic that any of us that can hit a jumper or take their man off the dribble could have got at least 15 per game against. that 2007 series overrated him. then he started believing his own hype and trying to prove to espn that he was better than williams, paul, and other top pgs while these guys were setting up their big men and tim duncan was fighting life and death just to get a basket on his own. parker has never made anyone's life easy when he has the ball.
You mean those other PGs who are 0 and forever? Those?
No, those that are "0-For-Tim".
Parker will he resigned and he will get a fair deal albeit less than he would get elsewhere but he has always taken less than he would make to play in San Antonio. He will sign a 3 year extention and retire a spur.
well obviously the likes of tyson chandler, omeka okafur, kenyon martin, and carlos boozer are better than tim duncan. right?
Tim has 4 rings. He's been in the league what, 15 years or so? That's 11 other years where teams won rings. Norris Cole has 2 rings. Rondo has a ring. CP3 had the freedom of choice of where he signed, and he ended up in a hype up monkeyballing system instead of going to play for a legitimate contender. Don't you think the Spurs would have accepted Chris Paul? I get the salary thing, but Tony isn't making 22 million a year, never has.
Tony makes 12.5m this year. CP3 makes 18+ million. Next year CP3 makes over 20 million. They choose money over success. Can't blame that on Tim.
so do u actually think parker is better than chris paul?
I think it's Parker 3 Paul 0

no that's not what i asked. with the roles reversed, does tony parker lead tyson chandler and the hornets to 3 les? btw, parker has 3 rings to john stockton's 0, isiah thomas' 2, gary payton's 1, and oscar roberton's 1. is he better than those guys too? just a simple yes or no will do. also, i don't know how posting stats is helping your argument. parker had the more superior team, but chris paul a better percentage, had more assists, steals, and rebounds in their playoff matchups. is that helping or hurting your argument? i just want to know what u are thinking haha
I think Derek Fisher has 5 rings and is lame and fatty
