Should the Spurs consider trading Enrique?

subtle trolling

no trolling at all, tbh... I actually really enjoyed my time in Paris, have family there and I'm looking forward to visit again...

Oh not the France part, just how the only part that you disagreed with in spursraider21's post was the France part at the end instead of what he said about Parker.

France is an incredible country. Finest beaches in the world are up and down Côte d'Azur. Luckily I've got family there and get to go every summer. Luv me dem young hotties prancing around topless like it ain't no thang

Well, I don't think you can disagree with the rest of his post, tbh...

Did TP9 bang a bunch of posters' wives? Seriously he is still our best overall offensive player and absolutely necessary to the motion offense on a game to game basis. Sure others will have it going more sometimes, but even slowed down he showed up tons of times in the playoffs last year.

The troll hate is not funny anymore. It's sad and ridiculous on a Spurs forum.

THIS!

Brazil clicks on thread, takes a drag from his joint, realizes the inconvenient truth bombs, then continues to post under Stalin.

I thought it was a well know fact that Stalin is baseline tbh

As for the rest I'm glad the Parker sucks squad is having a blast and enjoying this beginning of season. The yearly trade parker thread came early this year

[pgardn]

Cojos a solid player but can't shoot and can't really create. Kawhi can't consistently get to the rack. Parker is needed. Manu can't be the only play maker while only playing 24 mpg.

Holy .

Someone sees the value of the parts of a TEAM.
A team that may have given us a glimpse of the best team basketball ever illustrated.
But a little personal drama is for the teenage board girls...

Excellent bump material.

Not sure what's worse, the pathetic war in 'The Club' or this Manu fanboys vs Parker fanboys bull in here

[Old School 44]

Whether you like it or not Tim, Tony and Manu have "Spurs for Life" passes. Tim has an "unofficial" no trade clause. Tony and Manu would never get moved unless it's a landslide in favor of the front office. The fact of the matter is their corporate knowledge makes them considerably more value to the Spurs than anyone else. Not to mention, can you imagine the hit the Spurs family culture would take if Tony were traded?

[Mel_13]

Can't trade Enrique without trading Tony. The answer to the question in the thread le is no.

[Chomag]

Every time Hero plays bad we get the injured card. He should at least mix up the excuses every once in awhile.

Enrique slept with a teammate's wife and the culture didn't seem to take a big hit tbh.

[kaji157]

Parker may be moved once Ginobili and Duncan retire, in that scenario a new kind sets would be needed for the team and his corporate knowledge may weaken.
Also it is still a huge questionmark if the Spurs would be able to replace Ginobili and Duncan with immediate impact players, if they don´t, then we won´t be a contender any more and in that scenario Parker may be more comfortable elsewhere and we might be more comfortable with younger guys to develop.
Untill that happens Parker is untradeable.
Actually the only tradeable guys the Spurs have right now are Belinelli, Anderson and Ayres. Any other guy you trade Spurs won´t be able to get equal value in return.

Their fanboys are ridiculous with the hate for one another, wonder how they even root for the team when the other guy has a big game? I wonder if they boo their own teams baskets when the rival player makes a shot? Game winner by Manu and the Parker fans probably say ehhhhhhh it was luck. I can see Manu fans yelling at Parker as well from their homes when he makes a huge shot or doesn't pass the ball and makes one of the in the lane spinning layups. They are pathetic. Spurs fan first here, all this country pride hate another player crap doesn't fly and when both of them are gone from the team one sad day I will still be a Spurs fan.


BTW at his age and mileage what are you going to get for Tony? Come on now you won't get in return anything of the sort of a higher pick in the draft or a younger talent so you hang on to him as he knows the team well and is a huge asset to the Spurs. Do you trade him? NO.

[hater]

Trade the best pg in basketball.... Mmmm no not going to happen sorry short bus....

[look_at_g_shred]

lol

[Chomag]

Meh, Tp get overrated here just as much as he gets hated here. As long as it's balance I guess.

[EVAY]

Well, let's see - in the first 18 games, Tony has the highest shooting percentage on the team, including two pointers and three pointers, has the highest number of assists on the team, and has taken about 1.16 shots per Leonard shots for the season. What hero-balling!!!

Of course we should trade him!? But whoever would want such a disastrous player?!

[milkyway21]

If the Lakers would pursue Rondo who had only 2 pts against the Spurs even missing his FTs , they and other teams will welcome a still productive, Spurs veteran PG Tony Parker with open arms.
It is like giving away a piece of a championship chip to our enemies. Giving away the password of the Spurs' network.


For now, NO WAY.

i know, he was actually playing well before his exit. i'm speaking generally, though.

- parker was terrific in the 2011-2012 season but sorta fell off in the playoffs after game 2 against OKC

- parker was at his absolute best in 2012-2013. his finals was on/off, but there was the injury card. he had a good game 5 and had an overall poor game 6 (outside of the 2 big shots) and an invisible game 7

- he was still a good player last year, but wasn't as good as he was in either of the previous 2, imo. the stats might say he was, but anybody watching could tell, and we assumed he was slowed because of being worn down from long playoff runs + international ball in the summers. outside of the portland series, he was statistically a net negative in the playoffs for us.

- i was an optimist going into this year, thinking the summer off would leave him fresh, and hoping he'd revert to at least 2011-2012 form, but so far he just looks like he did last year. that's still good enough to make him one of the best at his position, and fortunately because of our deep we are, we aren't relying him to be MVParker, but i dont see him returning to his 2011-2012 or 2012-2013 form... im just hoping his decline isn't rapid, because we are on the hook for 3 more seasons with a pretty hefty salary

You know he has a 'terminal' case with his ankle right? If he aggravate it further, he has to retire..

what does that has to do with the post you responded to? what are you saying, that he's holding back?
