id probably have to watch the full thing, but even in this clip he's kinda all over the place.
Thoughts?
he mentions how they tried to break him, how they brought in some argentinian dude that he played behind, etc. how they drafted him but didnt really trust him.
but then he mentions how as a rookie he was thrown into the fire in the playoffs, and by his 2nd season he took the starting job from a franchise legend in tony parker
As always, neph. He may have single-handedly ruined this franchise and ruined our mojo. It's like 2014 was the peak and everything has been downhill since the NBA playoffs vs Zaza and the Dubs. Anyone notice him in the background d photos during their WH pics from today?
As time goes on, it's going to be harder and harder to find someone to say something nice about that piece of Tony Parker.
Wait, just saw this Murray quote about D White, what the man
Dejounte: "They really have me competing against Derrick White... I love Pop, but I felt like he sided with Derrick more than me because I wasn't a yes man. Not saying Derrick is any of that... Getting personal, you can't play with me like that."
Dejounte on finding out he was an All-Star: "I head home and [Pop] randomly calls me. 'Can you come back to the facility?' and I'm like, for what?... I soon as I walk in the door, they're like 'Congratulations All-Star.' I'm like, 'wait a minute. What!?'"
Parker seems to rub a lot of people the wrong way. And yet, he was a Spurs lifer, completely bought in, and was able to keep his personality issues from spilling out into interviews and things like that. As a fan, I prefer it that way. I feel bad for Bones, but other than that it’s not really my problem. DJM on the other may somehow be a cool dude but he gives fans plenty of reasons to dislike him. I prefer the Parker approach.
You could say the same about Steve Kerr and Manu Ginobili had some moments too. But yes, we could win the le simply because we had Tim Duncan and you could have replaced SJ with anyone that can shoot threes and it would have been the same result. Tim got guys some wide open shots.
Man, he probably was not the best teammate. He was also not from the US. He didn't have the Manu humility either. But just because he turned some people off doesn't take away from the fact that he was an all-star and at times, a top 10 NBA player. Very few Spurs can make that claim. He made all-NBA 2nd team 3 times and got votes for first place and also finished in the top tier of MVP candidates. Dude had an ego, I'm sure, but to be honest, many players have an ego. Could you say his ego was any bigger than SJ? I mean SJ is not the paragon of humility.
Truth nukes by DJ tbh
for a guy that comes from the hood and acts like he's some tough guy, he sure sounds like a vagina... Anyway, I dont really have any time to listen to 2 re s talking.
One of my favourite things is seeing some bitter ex Spurs trying to trash talk one of Tim, Tony or Manu and failing miserably. These tears are delicious, just like those of Spurs fans who support them.
He was never that guy and never will be.
His girly insta posts were the first signs...
Then the basketball followed
He was mostly very complimentary of the Spurs, was a good interview to listen to while playing Elden Ring.
Jackson really hates Tony Parker though.
also captain jack for holding some whine session
yo podcast, clown
enrique was nothing more then a coatrider....this clown reminds me of that cuck pippen/horry, trying to get more credit then they actually deserve....
In what way listening to the whole interview would change what he says in this clip ?
I'm tired of this idiot, he's been such a disappointment since he left SA. Tear your ACL once again so we don't have to watch and listen to your BS for another year.
Agree 100%.
I’m sure he’s let down plenty of cops as a juvy, who gave him chances and he’s back on the street the next day. He still acts the same way. The punk never grew up. This disloyalty is 100% a deciding factor the Spurs traded him, on top of other reasons. He can never be the face of a franchise when he turns around and rat on the same people who treated him good. I bet the Hawks are excited to have him rat on them when he bolts out. Pussy ass punk!
Who else outside of Jax, Kawhi, Barry, Dejounte is going to say anything bad about Tony? Barry, I understand his hatred of Tony which is legit but the other 3 guys are proven malcontents. They sound like a bunch of bitter ex-girlfriends trying to get over their ex when talking about Tony.
Kawhi talk about Tony?
Jax comments on Parker don't make sense. He blames Parker for freezing him out of game 6 in OKC and says Tony was trash that game. But Tony only shot the ball 6 times in the 4th and made 3 of them. He didn't freeze Jax out at all. Also Tony had a pretty damn good game leading in points and assists. Manu was the one who struggled of the three and all the other role players as well.
And as far as Tony and DJ goes, why would Tony mentor anybody? The dude couldn't dribble, pass, or shoot. Wtf is he gonna mentor him on? Ok this is how you do a pocket pass. This is how you keep your handle under your waist. This is how you do a gooseneck so you don't have to do 20 foot floaters in an actual game. DJ was pretty trash early on.
Now it's a credit to DJ and his work ethic that he got his game to where it is now, but it's revisionist history for DJ to say the Spurs tried to break him when the dude couldn't pass, dribble, or shoot. He was already broken. Plus whining about Derrick White is hilarious to me. Dude couldn't handle playing in any other era than today's coddled NBA. Tim didn't talk to Tony for an entire ing year. Bruce tried to end Manu's career during a practice season his rookie year. Just soft stuff from DJ
I thought Parker said Pop wanted him to be third string, and that's why he went to Charlotte so that he could at least be second string. I leafed through Parker's book in a Barnes and Noble one time and ran across something like that. It didn't have to do with Dejounte specifically.
He had his people talk about Tony back in '18.
