November 1, 200422 yr And the core is now signed for a good 6 years now. God I love being a Spur fan.
November 1, 200422 yr There should be some championships in the future. They won't beat the Pistons though... :thumbup
November 2, 200422 yr How is he overrated? I've never seen any publications that list him as the Top PG in the NBA? He's good and he has an NBA championship.

November 2, 200422 yr He's 22 years old and he has an NBA championship.. I'd say averaging 15 and 6 as a 22 year old is pretty good.
November 2, 200422 yr He's 22 years old and he has an NBA championship.. I'd say averaging 15 and 6 as a 22 year old is pretty good. 605907[/snapback] 5.5 assists,and 2.4 TO. not a very good ratio for a PG.
November 2, 200422 yr and do you know the specifics of his contract genius? 606112[/snapback] if its anywhere near the amount he was offered 2 days ago that was posted in an article on espn.com then yea he was way overpayed. PWNED
November 2, 200422 yr pwned? are you serious? are you 7 years old? Looks like a good PG to me.. Spurs fans should be happy to have them as their PG for the next 6 years.
November 2, 200422 yr Author and do you know the specifics of his contract genius? 606112[/snapback] if its anywhere near the amount he was offered 2 days ago that was posted in an article on espn.com then yea he was way overpayed. PWNED 606318[/snapback] ok you know what... i have no clue what ESPN posted. its 6 years 66 million 22 years old, will only get better. overpaid? no. bargain in the long run? yes.

He clearly showed in the playoffs that he can screen and roll gary payton when no defender steps up to help and then as soon as that was taken care of and altered, he clrealy shown how outmatched he can be the rest of the way. He probably will be a solid-good PG but never a great one.
November 2, 200422 yr Author and he is 22 years old. what other point guard aside from magic johnson achieved what parker has achieved at his age? look at the salaries of other point guards in this league....he is a bargain compared to many of those other salaries.
November 2, 200422 yr and he is 22 years old. what other point guard aside from magic johnson achieved what parker has achieved at his age? look at the salaries of other point guards in this league....he is a bargain compared to many of those other salaries. 606431[/snapback] He is also going to be a 4th year vet by the time of 22. Not many people at his position can say that. Maybe by the time Shaun Livingston is 22 he will be a better player than Parker at 22. However, if you look at the statistics, he basically regressed in almost every major category last year. FG%, 3PT%, FT%, PPG and only increased assists by .2 I dont think he is worth 22 million a year. And if you think about it, he has been a professional in Europe for many years. Most Amercians dont have his advantage and I truly believe when age catches up a little many American, young PGs will pass him by. I think Dwyane Wade was better than him last year and he was a PG the same age. I think Kirk Hinrich was just as good when he started and will be better than TP as soon as possibly this yr. Parker is good but not great and is not worth 11 million IMO. Also, if you are going to bring up the fact that he has a championship, dont tell me about him, talk to me about Tim Duncan, because he is clearly why TP has a ring.

November 2, 200422 yr Are Miami fans allowed to talk about high salaries? Doesn't Eddie Jones make about 15 million a year? Didn't Brian Grant get about 15 mil a year? lol
November 2, 200422 yr Are Miami fans allowed to talk about high salaries? Doesn't Eddie Jones make about 15 million a year? Didn't Brian Grant get about 15 mil a year? lol 606544[/snapback] Since we are Miami fans, does that mean we have to agree with every contract our general manager gives out? I didnt know that we had any say in what Pat Riley does, but thanks for showing me we do. By the way, how is Iowa's professional NBA basketball team going to do this year?

November 3, 200422 yr everyone needs to lighten up... just joking around and your use of the word PWNED is overused
