Parker is Chauncy's toy. He plays with him the whole game.
I think we should bring Parker off the bench and have Bowen guarding Chauncy, Manu on Rip, and Barry on Prince.
How 'bout we play Bowen a little more on Billups?
Billups has been the rock of gibraltar for Detroit. He has been the one, almost single-handily, keeping Detroit in these games. Ya, last night, RIP and Prince finally got off..but, it was Billups that kept them in the game till then.
Tony is doing the best he can with Billups...but, he just doesn't have the size or strength.
I think Tony matches up on RIP a little better than he matches up on Chauncy. He can match RIPS quickness and chase him around.
Billups is the one who's doing it all. He's basically the MVP in the series right now. He's the one that will win it for Detroit, if they do win it.
Let's put our MVP defensive guy, on their MVP offensive guy!
RIP might, or might not get off against TONY...but, I think it's been proven...Chauncey WILL go off on him.
Parker is Chauncy's toy. He plays with him the whole game.
I think we should bring Parker off the bench and have Bowen guarding Chauncy, Manu on Rip, and Barry on Prince.
I didn't see Bowen on Billups at all last night. We should also put Manu on Rip. And what was with Pop's love affair with Brent Barry last night. It pissed me off when he lobbed up a 3 and immediately started running toward the opposite end of the court. He thought it was going in -- turned out to be a brick. Pop -- more Horry, less Barry. Please!
He's been like that the whole season...
That's just how the er shoots...
Quickly releases, sprints back down.
ing moron...
I change my mind, start Horry on Prince. We also need size.
Dumbest thing you've ever said Alvarez. And you've said some pretty dumb things...
Barry covered Prince last night quite a lot...
?
Fine, have it your way 1Parker1...Let's keep Parker on Chauncy for 48 minutes and see who wins the championship.
Im a dumbass for wanting to stop a guy who has toyed with us the whole series???
Parker is being embarrassed by Billups, but it's not really his fault.It's a clear missmatch.
Exactly.
P_p STILL hasn't made any adjustments...
Hamilton will go OFF if Pop puts Bruce on Chauncey and Parker on Rip. And if he instead puts Bruce on Chauncey and Manu on Rip...Tayshaun will have a field day with Tony. Either way he goes, there's going to be a mismatch.
Were you even watching the game? Or were you too busy being immature and cursing out the entire team, aside from Manu? Yes, Barry was on Prince a lot last night...BTW, how many points did Prince have last night again? Yea, that's what I thought.
Secondly, I never said let's keep Parker on Billups--find me a quote where I said that. Your response was dumb on so many levels:
1) Why the F would we bench our Starting PG, when we don't have a legitamite BACK-UP for him to begin with? Manu and Barry are NOT point guards in case you haven't noticed. Sure they can play the point for some streches, but you honestly think they could run the offense the entire game?
2) What has Brent Barry done this series for you to even warrant him starting?! He cannot play any defense, he is not hitting his 3 pointers, he's averaging something like 5 ppg this series. His only positive is that he doesn't turn the ball over quite as much.
3) Manu on RIP Hamilton the entire game? I know you think Manu is God, however, he CANNOT expend 30+ minutes on one end chasing and defending RIP through screens while score 20+ points and 8+ rebounds at the other end of the floor. Just not gonna happen.
You are acting so childish Alvarez, it's not even funny. GROW UP! At least back up your dumb statements.
Ummm, Who said that Tony has to start??
Bowen-Chauncy
Manu-Rip
Horry/Barry-Prince
w.e 1Parker1
You're right....you always win.
F' you.
Why not bench our starting PG? Because it will help on defense, defense wins championships and we can't rely on offense. I don't want Chauncy to get hot from the beginning tip. I want to contain his ass early in the game so he doesn't get hot.
When did I say Manu is god?
Why can't Horry play on Prince?
I know you only like the Spurs because you have a crush on Tony, and you're jealous of Eva, but stop being so childish.
I can say the same about you.
That's a pretty bold move to make on the eve prior to a game 7, don't you think? Bench your starting point guard? Do you have that much trust in Barry and Manu to be able to handle the point guard spot, create for teamates and limit turnovers in the pressure packed vacuum that is game 7 of the NBA Finals?
Forget it, I am not even going to bother arguing with you. Not worth my time.
Yes.
The one who's turning it over the most isn't Barry or Manu...![]()
i't not only bold, it's well, dumb. sorry, alvarez.
Good.
Manu>Tony X 100.
I win.
![]()
![]()
tp and the spurs got there with tp starting
benching tp would be the stupidest thing you could do
I personally would like to see the Pistons all get mild food poisoning 30 min before the tip...![]()
You guys are getting the wrong idea, I'm not saying bench TP for the whole game, we need him to score and like that.
I just think we need to contain ing ass Billups.
YES, it's a bold move, but we have lost 3 of the last 4 games with TP on Chauncy, and the 1 game we DID win, we won with a game winning 3. That doesn't happen every game.
So yeah, it's bold, but we might as well try it.
Did you guys watch TD trying to call double dribble on Billups when he was beyond the 3 pt arc? TD was too busy reffing the game to guard Billups and Billups just shot the 3 which hit nothing but net.
That crap has to end. Let the refs call the game, please.
Parker will never start on the bench. Like him or not, he is our PG, and a team has to start w/its PG, or they might as well give up the game.
PG is the most important position, this is why the team is struggling because we only have parker to depend on. he is good, but he is no Steve Nash.
There's Duncan for you...
He's ing slacking in every category.
He better show some leadership and do his thing tomorrow.
Although I would not make the bold move of bringing parker off the bench before game 7 I do think that Barry on Prince is not a bad matchup. barry has actually played some decent defense this series, and he is one of the few guys who has the length to guard Prince. I know a lot of you will say a I am crazy but Prince did not just score on barry last night.
