How is Tony Parker not the best PG in the game?
In the last 10 games Tony averaged 24 points, 8 assists, 4 rebounds on 59%FG shooting. But the most impressive part is that he is doing it only playing 33 minutes a game.
The Clippers are hot at the moment, but Chris Paul isn't coming close to what Parker is doing this season. Stephen Curry is doing pretty good too, but Westbrook is probably the only player that has a case over Parker right now.

Cause Westbrook and Rondo are playing

Re: How is Tony Parker not the best PG in the game?
Parker is up there with Westbrook and Rondo but is at least a toss up between them. And Rondo is not that great anyways, but I do have my man Westbrook there with him.

Re: How is Tony Parker not the best PG in the game?
People don't like change unless everyone starts accepting it. Probably because the media is not recognizing him as the best.

Re: How is Tony Parker not the best PG in the game?
I would take Westbrook, Paul, Rose (when healthy obviously), Kyrie Irving and Rondo over Tony Parker. Here's the kicker, so would the Spurs probably.

Re: How is Tony Parker not the best PG in the game?
Parker was the best PG in the league last year and he's the 2nd best PG in the league so far this year.
Based on the season tho. Tho I would say he deserves overall ranking ahead of Deron at this point. Also Westbrook, even tho in a vacuum, Russell Westbrook has really impressed me. In moments, you see it.
You could also argue for him being ahead of Rose on the premise that Rose had the one elite year, followed by an injury-plagued season and now will miss pretty much all of this year. I still rank broken tibia Nash ahead of him tho. Rondo and Paul are also better.

Lol Westbrook is the only player who can be a 42% FG shooter and still be the best PG. Any other player would get ripped apart by ISH with that kind of number.

You really think if the Spurs were offered any of Westbrook, Chris Paul, a healthy Derrick Rose, Kyrie Irving or Rondo they'd turn it down? Maybe Rondo, but they'd trade Parker for any of those other guys in a heartbeat.

Re: How is Tony Parker not the best PG in the game?
Paul is better than Parker and it's beyond obvious. There's no question. There's really no argument for Parker being better than Rondo either. The only argument against Nash is that he's a 39year old who hasn't made the playoffs the last two years...and he's not playing now. But those three should be considered the top 3. They are the three best PG's in the league.

Umm, did I say that or do you just read what you wanna read? There are a few posts here where I say very clearly that Parker has been the 2nd best PG in the league this year and has been better than Paul. That doesn't make him a better player. So when I say top 3, I don't mean this year. I'm aware that Nash got hurt in the second game man. Seriously.
And someone whining to me about no in-depth analysis...like the guy I was responding to really got into it.

How is that a contradiction? I don't care about FG%, I said ISH does.
What's with people not knowing how to read these days? I blame the public school systems.

I wouldn't say he's struggling. He's shooting around his career average 43%. This is typical Westbrook. This is why we love him, his athleticism is what sets him apart from the rest. We at ISH worship athleticism.

Re: How is Tony Parker not the best PG in the game?
If I was building a team with current NBA players, I wouldn't touch Westbrook. I would probably go Paul or Parker and Rondo on my bench. The PGs job is to get the team the best shot every time. God I miss Stockton.

Re: How is Tony Parker not the best PG in the game?
I usually like the PG's like Paul and D Will the most. Because they are great floor general-dime droppers first BUT can will a team to victory and become alpha dogs. I put Parker more in the group with Rose and Westbrook. And that is pure alpha dog type scorers who happen to play PG. In other words Tony is more of a scoring PG or some would go so far to say a combo guard. Though I prefer to say lead guard who can really ring up the points and is a very good passer. But Tony, Rose, or Westbrook aren't that TOTAL PACKAGE PG in terms of balancing great scoring and great floor generalship-passing.
Rondo is more of the Stockton, Kidd, Mo Cheeks, Mark Jackson style of PG. But Rondo is doing the J Kidd triple double act at 6'1, which is unheard of. But in any event u have three style of PG's who can all be great players. U have the Paul-DWill model, the Rose-Parker-Westbrook model, and the Rondo model. In all three groups, u have guys who project to HOF status. On certain teams either on the three kinds of PG's can be a better fit for that particular team. Even though I think Paul and D Will (like Magic, Big O, Isiah, Payton, peak Nash, Frazier, Tiny) can adapt to any situation.
-
Re: How is Tony Parker not the best PG in the game?
I'm completely sure Rondo is playing like the best PG so far.
51% FG for a guy that can't shoot. #1 :lol
13 APG with an old starting lineup and some decent bench players. #1 :roll:
#3 in rebounds in guards at only 6' 1''. :bowdown:
Walking triple double. :bowdown: :bowdown:
He has 1 3PLDL and flirted with triple doubles numerous times already. He was 1 rebound away from a 15 assist triple double tonight. :applause:
-
Re: How is Tony Parker not the best PG in the game?
Top 5 PG are all very good and interchangable depend on team needs, fitting.
In no particular order:
CP3
Rondo
Rose
Westbrook
Parker

Re: How is Tony Parker not the best PG in the game?
Tony Parker is not shabby but don't sleep on Steph Curry either. Why do I say that? Number wise he's getting about as many assists and is rebounding as well. Scoring as many points, and when it comes to field goal percentage, you gotta remember that Steph takes and makes a lot of 3 pointers and that has a higher expected value than someone who just makes field goals. Spurs are good, but were also 15 and 7, not too shabby either.

Yep, it's [B]beyond obvious [/B]that a player who's never been past the second round of the playoffs and has missed the playoffs several times in his short career is way better then a Finals-MVP, 3 time-champion, who has beat Chris Paul's team both times they've met in the playoffs, this past year in an EMBARRASSING sweep.
Like I always say, when Chris Paul or Steve Nash are coming to town (especially for the playoffs), it's a good thing in San Antonio, trust me.

Re: How is Tony Parker not the best PG in the game?
Tony Parker's one of my favorite players but I have to admit playing with the Spurs with already established stars like Duncan made his transition to the NBA different from CP3.
CP3 was a lottery pick and already had higher expectations placed on him as a rookie.
Tony Parker did great his rookie year but any mistakes he does Duncan and other veterans pick up the slack.
Tony Parker and Rondo both were lucky to have been with great players their first 2 years in the league.
