Parker

[TwoHandJam]

So far my theory that his matchup with Billups is the biggest factor in this series is coming true....He has more turnovers than assists and is killing momentum plays. He's got to turn this around.

Same goes for Manu btw but I'm confident Manu will rebound.

[ducks]

tp just got 2 turnovers
otherwise he has more assist then turnovers

by the way he missed 4 layups atleast

[DannyT]

Tony P has to step up and hit a lil outside jumper here and there that way he can open up the tear drop for us
he mos def has to step up and add to the scoreboard for us to really pull ahead

[Rummpd]

Parker better in second half at least with ball movement.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

I knew Tony would have a bad game when Mic e Tafoya was rattling off all of Tony's pre-game quotes about how they were confident, they knew they were better, etc.

Whenever Tony gets y he plays like the French in WWII.

Parker is playing out-of-tempo. He seems to be rushing things, like he's still stuck in the Phoenix series. His ability to finish has been lacking, to say the least.

Beno isn't showing any spark either, so Tony needs to step up and be the point gaurd he knows he can be.

[ducks]

big layup by tp

[ducks]

tp 2-2 in fourth
stfu haters
had he made 2 of the 4 layups he would be shotting over 50%

[ducks]

Nice 3 Rebounds From Tp

[TwoHandJam]

Nice 3 Rebounds From Tp

Nice turnovers in crunch time.

Nice dribbling for 10 seconds doing nothing and then giving up the ball.

Parker is nowhere near Manu's league. Period.

[ducks]

PLAYERS PEAK AT 28
TP WILL BE BETTER THEN MANU AT THAT AGE


manu had his turnover problems tonight also

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

2-2... so that's basically a wash with his turnover and airball to end the first and second quarters, he's still got to make up for trying a one on three break.

[Nikos]

Parker was kind of schizophrenic tonight.

He looked good in stretches, awful in others in his decision making.

He did help the offense around and in between Manu's great 2nd half.

Parker can do better, and I think his decision making should get better.

[ducks]

if tp were to win the mvp award you haters would still say he sucks

[T Park]

Parker ended up being OK.

ill take 17 out of him every night.

[SouthernFried]

If been criticizing Parker all year. Tonite he had a solid, good game. Going strong, being aggressive on both ends. I don't care about points...I just wanna see heart. Tony showed that tonight...good game TP.

[ducks]

tony needs to improve but he was rusty for the days off and you have to credit the d from the pistons

the pistons d is the best the spurs ever face

someone needs to stfu...

Too many bad passes that looked like a rookie. But somehow he wound up scoring enough to help out. I think he will have better games in the series.

Sorry, but I don't think Parker had a "solid, good game". He shot 41% and had more turnovers than assists. He didn't really come close to matching Billups who totally outplayed him if you look at his statline.

I saw Parker forcing shots and making bad decisions at key times. I like the fact that he stayed aggressive but he's usually aggressive at home and his game was still lacking. I don't see any way you can call his game a "good" one. Let's just say it wasn't too poor.

Well it will never happen, so moot point.

TwoHand knows that of which he speaks.

Let's just say he did what he needed to do to help this team get the win. As crunch time was nearing, guy kept driving the ball to the hole and hit some big shots.

[SouthernFried]

Both TONY and MANU turned the ball over a ton...mostly in that obscene 1st quarter. It was horrible.

But, Tony had a freakin' solid game. Like I said, I dont care about points...or, in Tony's case...assists. He played with a ton of heart tonite, going strong to the basket and making some incredible shots.

He put his heart on the line tonite...he didn't play soft and he was aggressive. When he plays like he did tonite...good things happen.

[MiNuS]

I guess we are all growing with Tony. He's ups and downs. Like many of you have said the guy is only 23 y/o and should be spectacular by 28-30.BY then if Manu will be 32 and Tim will be 34-35.Spurs would definitely need to score big time with fresh new stars to continue this great ride.

Tony is getting better.

And they would say Manu really should of won it. Freaking people in here are unbelievable.
