You've been wrong all year. What is another L right?

I provided the right answer. More Manu at the point with the starters. Patty isn't a true PG. He's a sparkplug guy who comes in and hits a couple 3s to break a team's back. His game won't translate well to major starting minutes.

I agree about the rebounds but if more offense is needed Boris should be there instead of Timmy. A line-up of Manu at PG, Green, Kawhi, Boris and LA should be good enough to don't get killed on the boards while manufacturing enough pts on the other side to win the game.
Who gives a . Spout all the stupid metrics and "advanced" stats you please, I see Patty for what he is not the make believe you wish he was. The guy is a undersized jump shooting SG trapped in a PG's body. It worked having him around as a change pace and instant offense off the pine when Parker was in his prime, but now we need a much better solution to the 1st/2nd PG spot. We need size (Patty is only 6'), athleticism (last sequence of tonight's game proves Patty lacks that), ability to penetrate (another knock on Patty) and most of all one that can create for his teammates. Something left up for Manu to do because Patty sucks at it (which his whooping 2.8 APG and 20 Assist Percentage) so badly.
"Patty shows up in the playoff!"
3-13 against a real playoff team thus far.
Take the L, bro.
He might hit you with dat +/-

Patty is a backup PG. Nothing more...nothing less.
All this talk about Patty, is because our starting PG sucks and we need our backup PG to cover for him. Sometimes Patty does, sometimes Patty doesn't. Get rid of Parker and get a decent starting PG...and Patty is just fine as the backup. But, we all know Parker ain't going nowhere...so, we need another starting PG to cover for him. Patty isn't a starting PG.
Paddy probably rushes up a shot, tbh.. Ball hog
manu at point guard is easily our best option. since OKC has no 2-guard he can always just defend roberson/waiters/morrow/payne or whoever the and it wont be an issue. the problem is he's old and probably can't handle the minutes we need out of him
his 3-ball has been very reliable this year and in the playoffs, so he combines the best of patty (shooting) and parker (unlike patty, is capable of dribbling the ball in the face of defenders) while also providing better playmaking than either
Manu can't handle that for the minutes you would need of him.
that was pretty nash-like... though it could easily have been broken up by westbrook if he reacted a bit quicker, and then TP woulda been slammed for the turnover
That pass from TP was insane...
If I'm Pop, i would start to have short leash on Mills from next game..give a look to Andre Miller and have him feed LMA for few easy baskets..that's is better option than having Mills chucking us away on the road..
No he isn't fine as the back up. Even in Parker's diminished capacity, he'd bring more to the table as a backup at this point. Parker isn't leaving, so continuing to wish for it does nothing. Need to move on from that thought and the team needs to find a solution at the starting PG. Parker can move to the next chapter of his career and take over Manu's role as the spark plug/creator off the bench.
thanks mate tbh.. this pass is a beauty![]()
Patty is not a PG.
No matter how hard the crew wants him to be.
We know what he is, our energy SG off the bench with Manu to find him.
Its just not that difficult.
as bad as patty's been... after six playoff games he has a better PER, TS%, DRB%, TRB%, STL%, TOV%, and WS/48 than tony.
both have struggled. if you start patty instead, both will play worse than they currently are?
as i've said before though, i'd start him or manu or miller.
Patty has made as many 3s as Andre against OKC: 1!![]()
Patty has the WORST offensive rating among the rotation players against OKC: 63!(Last I checked he's there for offense)
if we depend on Chernobili at PG for real minutes, we might as well tank the series
I wanna see Andre Miller IMO. Patty can't even outplay Cameron "aka Westbrook chewtoy" Payne
I'm pretty sure Miller would school that ladyboy
Patty was ing atrocious in Game 2, unfortunately. Making a lot of bad decisions, rushing shots etc.
Damn..gambit is nowhere to be seen
can't even make set-up corner 3s anymore...did that surgeon forget a scissor in his shoulder after the surgery?![]()
He hit threes against Memphis. Hes a role player. Hes going to have ups and downs in series. Lets hope both him and Danny make threes against GSW cause thats the only way we are getting a shot at them.
They simply disappeared.
That's it.
