A night where we lost because the spurs could not buy a bucket and who do people turn on? The one who was hitting his shots.
The entire team played sloppy as . Nobody could make a shot or even an entry pass. This loss is in the entire team. period.
I take issue with the "pseudo" modifier.It was a pseudo-collective sucking of ass.

Yeah somethings wrong with his Shooting game this start...but he'll adjust his offensive game and improve. He's due. The rest he's been pretty much the same ol' Manu with the hustle plays and charges ...and flopping.
Lick me.
Yeah, they had their chance in OT and the Fourth, and just couldn't make anything. All of them sucked. The 50 percent field goal is deceiving when it comes to hitting shots. You'd think Duncan had a good game, but he missed easy lay ups apparently. And a DUNK?
Dumbass thread. Parker has been the best Spur up to now. He is gonna carry the SPurs on his back this regular season. Of course come playoffs,he's gonna hand the team over to the big boys, DUncan, Manu and grandpa Horry
ive been waitin far so long....i luv u long time
anyway....
now you all know why i hate tp, and some of you clowns calling me out last time....
when TP was on the floor tonight he makes 11-22 FG
Tim 7/15 and TP makes 2 assists for him
Finley 1/7
the other 5/27 with 1 assist for Manu
3 assists is very good with only 13 possibilities (and you know how many times with Tim we can't see an assists)
I have long been a Tony basher and it boils down to his decision making and forcing shots. When he cannot penetrate he never seems to catch his rythym. When he is in his groove his shooting seems to be more smooth and in the flow of the game.If he does not get involved then he looks like he has in the last couple of games. I think one thing that Tony REALLY needs to work on is to find ways to help the team when he cannot penetrate or when his shot is off. I have been HAMMERED in the past for making this comment but TP seems to sulk when he is not invloved in the game and making plays. TP is a good player but in order to be a great player he must find ways to help the team when he cannot offensively.
Here is the problem with Tony's assists......The guy he passes it to....HAS TO HIT THE SHOT.....He shouldn't be taking over 20 shots and handing out only 3 assists.
He could have had ten last night, easily.
And yes, he had more than his share of turnovers last night... After watching the way the Bobcats claw constantly at the ball, I suspect a lot of teams are going to suffer more than a few turnovers against this team.
For Parker to be considered great around here, the Spurs would have to go 96-0. He's the easiest and most convenient target ever. It's as though we only have one player on this team who takes some ill-advised shots or commits turnovers during a game.
Well that kinda comes with the territory when you're a PG. Like a QB - get all the blame and all the credit. Is it fair? Nope. Just seems to be the way it is. Duncan is completely off-limits (as he should be) - leaves Pop, Parker and Holt. All 3 have been called out for this loss. Kinda crazy, and it doesn't make sense. The problem is, I don't think Parker gets his share of the credit when the Spurs win.

For me, Parker's earned the benefit of the doubt. A "careful" Tony Parker is not as good for this team as an aggressive, take-some-chances, perhaps overconfident Tony Parker. If that means he bricks a few outside shots or commits some turnovers, I'll take it. Overall, he's still the best offensive option we've got.
Bravo ! Bravo ! Bravo !
Thank god you wrote this !
Xap'
For me, it's also how we lost. I'm used to celebrating victories eaked out in the end. I'm used to one of those Manu 3's going down. Having a rookie (who has not been particularly sharp offensively) light up Bowen is just unacceptable for me (I'm a Bruce Homer.)
If I had to choose between losing to Houston and beating Charlotte, or beating Houston and losing to Charlotte. I'd take the latter in a heartbeat. But this was just a frustrating loss with HOW the Spurs lost for me.
I really don't understand the haters since they are all spurs player
And do you think that tony is as stupid as you imagine? If he really is how can you explain that POP put him in the starting five when he was only 19? and it wasn't atlanta or New york...but san antonio. Find me all the PG at this age that we could put in a system like the spurs...And seriously,I don't see the spurs winning with other PG than TP moreover,I think TP will Lead this team this season and the playoffs and more , the next years,with gino going 30,Duncan who for me, isn't clearly the same of 2003,2005 and he's going down little by little(Even though he still have great stats)
Yeah it's obvious
Imagine the SUNS with the SPURS 3points% i think nash would have maybe 2 assists![]()
Hey Tony haters, I'm so tired to always hear your bull . Tony do only the things Pop ask him to do. He makes his job and do it well!
If you want some assists, the guy who shot the ball need to score if you want it! And in the SPURS system when Tony gives the ball, it goes to Manu who give it to Bruce and goes to Tim. The ball goes to 2-3 or 4 players before a shot. whit this kind of play you can't have some assists.
A guy like Steve Nash each time he give the ball the guy shot directly. With that you can make a lot of assist. But in the SPURS system you go in the bench with to fast shot!
Each year Tony improve his game and you are never satisfied.
An other thing I don't understand is why you always compare him to Manu???
It's crazy, it's a team, the guys don't play at the same position and you always compare them! We need both of them. I always liked Manu, but because of guys like you who always says bull on tony and compare him to Manu and says One is better than the other and blabla bla!
Open your eyes man, Manu was awesome in 2005, surrely one of the best player in the planet but after... Where is this incredible Manu???
He's still a good player but not the same he was in 2005 and he probably never play at this level again.
Tony improve each year and he is still young! Without him I don't know how many games we won last year??
anybody who thinks parker is the number one offensive option right now... is wrong. Parker needs to learn how to distribute when hes off.
OK I totally agree but tony is neeeeeeeeeeever off![]()

Who is the number one offensive option on this team?
Obviously Duncan is best if all things are equal, but they don't play in a vacuum. If I have one play, I'd rather have Parker driving to the basket or shooting off a screen than Duncan posting up two defenders. Particularly given Parker's FT advantage.
