    I know Parker is the pg and Pop puts a lot of trust in him, but, with Parkers minor ankle injury could Pop pull him earlier in these blow outs to save him for down the road. Game 7 v Dallas he's out around 5 min mark last night he's out around 4min mark. Or is he leaving him in because he wants his mind in the game at all times even in the blow outs.

    Splitter was also there. they were there to play against Lillard and Alridge whom their coach was set on playing them their 40+ minutes

    Splitter was there to practice (although I would have pulled him so Alridge does not get comfortable which he sort of did)
    Parker was there for similar reasons on Lillard

    If you pull Parker, you have Manu giving the ball away and Patty "no clock management" Mills playing his own SSOL despite needing to run the clock. You keep Parker in to pace the game.

    its like parker himself said, he basically took all of april off so he can manage 36 min esp if it helps make it a short series. then he can really rest.

    Perhaps CIA Poppy has been told by Spurs medical team that right now some extra minutes (reasonable) are actually good for TPs specific injury recovery?
    Just sayin....

    You could see TP and Pop speaking at the sideline and it seemed like one of these ---Pop: "I gotta give you some rest!", TP: "Come on Pop! I'm still young. Wanna have some fun."--- conversations.

    negatory. Parker was sitting while Manu and Pop were ting the bed through the 4th quarter. He had to come back and put the spurs up with 50 seconds left. Then the Spurs and Pop melted down in unison.

    worst in game meltdown in sports history.
