translation of the main things :
Tony, how do you explain the good week for the spurs after losing 4 straight games ?
We feel it's over to say we need to be patient and that things will go our way soon or later. With RJ and Manu came back at a good level, everything is easier. Logical to play better like that. We know everything could go fast in this conference. The level is very high and we need to stay close to the PO spots in the beginning of the RS. Last year, nothing was set until the last game. Very tight conference. Since our schedule is rather easy, we need to take wins.
Personnaly, you seem less active offensively ?
i play my role of PG. Since manu and RJ are back at their best level, i try to give them the ball. I have no interest in forcing my shot if they score well. I don't care about scoring 10 points. The only thing i care is to win at the end.
How is your ankle ?
Better and better. I feel i'm not far from 100 %..

Throughout the next couple months his at ude will show if he truly means this. And if it turns out that he is ok with accepting this role...then it's pretty hard not to respect and admire this guy. He could be putting up 30+ every game if he truly wanted to.
If this truly is the at ude TP is taking, then this team could come together quicker and more seamlessly than originally thought.
^well at least he already showed that the last couple of games. Now I think he has to find a fine balance I don't think tp with less than 10 FGA a game is a good thing for the spurs
We need about 15 shots from him. No way they beat the elite wiith TP scoring 10 points.
Im ok with TP scoring 10 pts against the Lakers as long as Manu and RJ pumps in 25 each.
Good newsHow is your ankle ?
Better and better. I feel i'm not far from 100 %..
Of course everything is easier
We have beaten ty teams
good read.
btw - we haven't lost 4 straight yet have we?
btw thanks kace for posting this
Thanks for posting/translating.
Ideally, Tony uses this time to get the team involved and save some abuse on his body from having to do too much work.
In the playoffs, hopefully he's at full strength and can take over games when he's able to without the team chemistry falling apart. That would be the ultimate goal: for the team to be clicking and for TP to be healthy. But for now the goal is to improve as a team and stay healthy.
Nice mature at ude. If things work out, defenses will play him to deny the pass so this will open opportunities for him to score.. need a good balanced game from TP but I like what he's trying to do.. I expect TOs will become less a problem with more time..
nice tp. Finding a balance between scoring and assisting team mates is not easy though. But i'm sure TP will figure it out.
A lot of the turnovers are from driving, not passing. Doesn't make sense. Perhaps he's over penetrating and should shoot the tear drop more.
The biggest worry that most of us harbored regarding Parker was the adjustments he would need to make in his own style in order to accommodate his new teammates. Many of us wondered if RJ would even work with this team because of it...and Pop saying he was handing most of the offensive flow responsibility over to Parker only exacerbated these worries. I agree that in the long term, we will need his offense...but it is much better for the Spurs to have Parker holding the ball less and more focused on ball movement to include his teammates. I think at the end of the day I think it would be ideal to have Parker closer to a consistent 17/8 line instead of a 21/6 line.
Great at ude. Having so many weapons on the offense this year, we won't usually need that consistency from TP (in terms of scoring). He needs to get everyone involved, and recognize who's beeing hot at every possession. A smart PG (playing as a PG, and it seems to be TP's case this year) usually sacrifice shots attempts to get certain players going.
At least he don't have to fight for the all-star reserve seat
beat a good team and then come back and tell me it's easy....wtf?
What I mean is he needs to attack D's. When he's on he's got that drive and dish to shooters. Specially against the Lakers.
Tony Parker a pass-first point guard?
I LIKE IT. It's a better style for the team and should he need to score more because those other options are covered...he can do that as well.
John Stockton's best year was 17 points & 14 assists per.
If Tony gets 18 & 8...we're slaying all!
figures, TP is the only spur on my fantasy team. go ahead, Tony, pass it.
pop should tell him he has to get at least 10pts and 10assists! it looks like tony is trying for this, and if no ones being aggressive then he needs to drive all day. i really was discouraged w/his passing, and lack of penetration, but i have to say hes doing alot better.
That's all i care bout too. The thing about Tony is that over time as a Spur he's matured in such way that you can only admire and think how lucky we are to have him. I for one hope Tony and Manu are Spurs for life.The only thing i care is to win at the end.
TP haters finally left speechless
