Manu's closer to Duncan than he is to Parker

Re: Tony Parker vs. Manu Ginobili
A lot of people forget Tony Parker carried the Spurs offense after Duncan's decline and his MVP shares blow Manus out the water. Four top 10 finishes and one top 5. (believe it or not)
Manu at his peak 2004 or 2005 is better than Parker, but he fell off harder.

Re: Tony Parker vs. Manu Ginobili
I wouldn’t say carried. Duncan was on his way to win FMVP if the Spurs won in 2013.

Re: Tony Parker vs. Manu Ginobili
It would've been a split decision. Tony was the only guy on the Spurs capable of dribble penetration versus Miamis elite swarming perimeter defense. While manu played like trash. Danny Green Parker and Duncan were the main guys who showed up there. Originally Posted by 1987_Lakers

Re: Tony Parker vs. Manu Ginobili
It's hard to pick, they both had their moments. Gun to my head I would say Manu peaked higher but it's still really close.
To think that these guys are both 4x champions and were totally left off the top 75. Duncan was great but he didn't do it alone.

Split decision my ass. Duncan would have ran away with FMVP if they won.
Parker was clamped by LeBron.

Re: Tony Parker vs. Manu Ginobili
I'd go Tony Park by a slim margin without looking into the numbers.

Re: Tony Parker vs. Manu Ginobili
Manu up until about Finals of 07. Parker was steady from there in out while Manu had the higher ceiling in games due to his takeover ability.

Re: Tony Parker vs. Manu Ginobili
I think they're split. Would have to do a year by year analysis to see who ultimately was a bigger net positive.

Re: Tony Parker vs. Manu Ginobili
Just accolade/resume wise, there's really no argument for Manu here. Parker has 2x the All-Star selections, 2x the top 10 MVP finishes, 3x the All-NBA, a FMVP, as weak as it may be.
Peak for peak though it's clearly Manu, I'd take him on my team over Parker 10/10 times.
