ESPN Abbott & Thorpe: Spurs defense is the most terrifying thing in the league.

[TrainOfThought5]

Name three starting point guards in the league that are good defenders.

Chris Paul, Mike Conley, Russell Westbrook.

Ignoring that Kawhi and Green are guarding Choke when it really matters for the sake of a heroball narrative
Overrating DeContract's statistically-mediocre rim protection
ty mainstream takes

Yet I totally agree that Spurs, like most teams, guard the elite point guards with Green and Leonard. The same holds true for Paul. Mainstream fans overrate Paul. He was a great player 5 years ago, now he's good, but lost something, just like Parker. He's still a great offensive point guard, but Paul is not an elite defender, or even close to one.

some things are better left forgotten...

TP is not even an average defender..

I agree that Paul is overrated, but even after "losing a step" and not being "elite," he's still a much better defender than Enrique

TP is a terrible defender at this point in his career. I'm not sure how that's debatable. I'm also not sure why a thread about the Spurs' team defense (which was positive in nature) turned into a thread about Tony's poor defense. You know who else is poor defensively? Manu. But why the does that matter?

This thread is a perfect example of the extreme level of re ation that takes place in every thread involving 2-3 different posters here (one of which is a spurs fan pretending to be a clippers fan).

You do realize it has nothing to do with Parker, right? I get it, you want attention (and judging from your picture you're not getting it outside of ST), but if you're going to annoy everyone in every thread, looking for attention, you're probably going to get ted on (personally or otherwise). If you went from thread to thread posting about Reggie Williams, who is arguably tier than parker (or maybe not), it would be all the same.

Trying to group everyone with you. There's a couple of people that felt the need to use the ignore button and then there's you who felt the need to get personal. Those are by far the two biggest overreactions to the 'incessant trolling'.

Like I said it's pretty funny that this is the reaction I got from the guy that came in puffing his chest asking why people even bothered responding to me.

Manu is at worst a slightly below average defender, Enrique is arguably the worst defender for his position. There's different levels of sucking.

He was brought up to point out how much scarier the Spurs team defense might be with a decent defender starting at PG. Not sure why that is so offensive to you little Enrique fans. It's no different than saying the Spurs are currently playing like a juggernaut, imagine how much better they'll be when Patty starts hitting threes consistently again.

Do you not understand that these things you think are personal are things you did publicly on this forum and were clowned for on this forum for years? "Puffing" my chest? It was a legitimate question. Why the do people still respond to your attention seeking posts about Parker (Enrique)? You're probably surprised that more people don't ignore you.

Personal in the sense that they're about me and have nothing to do with basketball. Not in the sense that I care that you bring them up or that you paint them out in an exaggerated way. Nobody other than you has been driven to the point where they feel the need to talk about my pic, clothes or house. That's pretty funny tbh.

ok

gg

Look up their defensive numbers next time before grouping them together.

[unleashbaynes]

damn dude fkla getting regulated. i would love to see this meltdown thread but somehow im thinking that it was conveniently deleted.

[unleashbaynes]

Why the does it matter whether or not parker is a good defender when we're just gonna hide him on the other team's tiest player anyway? We have Kawhi and Green. There is no PG in the league that even comes close to them defensively.

[jag]

Yeah, you completely missed the point. But that isn't surprising.

You keep working on that shtick, bro - pretending to bring real basketball takes, going from thread to thread posting about Parker. Maybe people will remember you as the guy who really hates Enrique, and not the guy who once went from thread to thread in the NBA forum posting pictures of chicks with s.

lol making more up

I'll keep ting on him. You keep taking 'shots' at me if helps ease the anger the Enrique talk induces.

[RD2191]

Jag with a solid meltdown.

[FkLA]

'You have sloppy ass clothes, a poor ass house, and look like you get no attention!'

^That oughta teach me not to badmouth Enrique.

[jag]

Oh, you're back to claiming that's a lie? You didn't meltdown and post tranny porn in the NBA forum? You've hinted at a denial this whole thread. Just come out and say you didn't do that. It'll be funny.

my comments obviously bothered you. You keep bringing it up

[jag]

Jag with a solid meltdown.

Hang tight. I'm about to finish off my epic meltdown with some tranny shots

[RD2191]

I'm out.

I'm out.

Your friend FKLA isn't. That's right up his alley

[FkLA]

facepalm

You're twisting what did happen and flat out making up other .

I'll say it one time. The bet was ELE, I figured I was gone anyway and posted a YT vid of Tony Montana's last stand then followed it with a bunch of different types of porn. Stupid and dumb looking back on it now that I'm a grown ass but it was all for s and giggles not for any other reason.

[Cry Havoc]

jag with no regard

[FkLA]

But like I said if it helps ease the anger the Enrique talk induces, then by all means keep thinking I melted down and begged. Same with the clothes and house. It doesn't make you come off as angry or anything.
