bulls average 19 assists per game in the playoffs
spurs average 15.25
he is averaging 3 more asissts on the youngest team in the playoffs and he is shooting 45% vs. 48% ? which equals 29 for 64 ( hinrich) vs 31 for 64 ( parker) or 2 shots - let me see would you rather have 48% and 5 assists or 45% and 8 assists when the difference is 2 shots ?
bulls average 19 assists per game in the playoffs
spurs average 15.25
what does age have to do with anything it is how you play not how old you are
spurs are averaging 21.3 not 15 assist
looked at the wrong category - 20.25 for the bulls and 21.25 for the spurs.
remember how tony tore up the olympics last summer when those guys wouldn't let him penetrate the lane ?
Tony is a good player, but his game management is average-below average for a PG...
and the TP'ers wearing silver and black glasses who think he hung the moon and their angry responses in 3....2.....1..
thank u for hitting the nail on the head about that selfish point guard!
well part of the problem with tp is if he cant get into the lane like he was in game 1 and 2 he cant kick it out to wide open shooters like bowen in the corner or whoever else. and its even harder because the kings arent double teaming duncan that much. so when parker does get into the lane he cant give it to wide open shooters because the kings are staying home on the shooters. parker isnt selfish the kings just have a good gameplan right now. im sure pop will make adjustments.
Ive said it before and I'll say it again. Manu can't do anything wrong and TP is always doing something to make the Spurs lose.
Get over it people. TP will never consistently have high assits numbers, we've gone over this over and over and over. This offense is not setup that way, Pop has said it.
Bruce can't defend Artest or Bowens. Bonzi is killing the out of us. Manu besides game two when Artest wasn't on him hasn't done . No other big man has step it up.
Tell me HOW IS THIS TONYS fault??????????????????????????
You do realize Manu has done absolutely nothing and been a complete shadow and liability while on the floor for two straight games right?
Where is all the Parker bashing now?
Parker stepped up huge and hit big jumpers down the stretch. He was also the one who got Manu going by feeding him on a couple layups and giving him the ball in isos. He plays his best game since Game 1 and the naysayers are MIA.
Not a surprise.
I forgot to mention how he shut down Bibby and made him look like Brooks Thompson out there.
Those fourth quarter in your face back-to-back jumpers were nice. Especially since he was so gimpy.
(By the way, you bumped this thread and now someone will come in and start talking about his assist numbers).
The last Olympics were in 04.
hmm, TP looked alright to me. People just need to settle down and give the guy a chance to actually play the entire playoff run before they start talking . Damn, the guy has a couple of off games and is instantly labeled a failure. Just watch and enjoy the games.
Nice username!
It was the best I could think of. Goes to show how much I actually think...![]()
You are comparing TP's stats to other PG's on teams that are losing in the playoffs.
You want Timmy to take all the shots?
That was our problem before Manu, Tony, and others came here, at that time the offfense was bogged down and too predicitable. I like it that Tony score, it gives us that second optin other then Tim and makes the defenses play Tim straight uo more often...along with Manu. I can remeber when people used to say that TP needed to get better at scoring and when he does people find fault in him still.
We are being woefully outrebounded in this series....they are getting way too many 2nd chances points...except games 1 & 5. Bonzi is going beserk many times off of offensive rebounds. TP was a big reason we were still in game 2 & 3.
i'm so upset with tony, i really am.. he shot the ball nearly in every posession during the third quarter.. didn't even pass.. went staight to the basket or took a jumpshot.. oh well, i hope he actually pass the ball next time..
you haters are unreal.
An allstar point guard, and nothing is good enough.
I gaurantee hed say
zeee you.
I knew we would have this response. Tony parker played like we needed him to in order for us to win. He made great decisions and picked his momnets when to drive the basket. Great game by Tony. My problem with him was the penetrate at all cost or dribble the ball for 18 seconds and then hoist p a 22 footer. I stand by my statements because they were accurate and necessary. If you go back and read my post he did nothing of what I complained about. I am hopeful we see the same thing in the next round.. My fingers are crossed.
