As one of the elite pgs. He is absolutely making the 'prodigal son' CP3 look like a scrub. But the consensus of the board is that Parker isn't even in his league.

Are you watching the telecast? I think he's getting credit for being elite.

Barkley, Reggie and Webber all called him the best PG in the NBA.

Tony Parker is in my fantasy team. He is a monster.

If the Knicks were as elite of an organization as the Spurs, ESPN would change it's name to the Knicks Report. It is absolutely insane how unrecognized that whole team is. What Tim Duncan is doing at that age is unreal. Greg Popovich is one of the greatest coaches of all-time.

It makes for an interesting argument trying to rank the point guards in the NBA today. I might say something like:

1) Tony Parker
2) Russell Westbrook
3) Chris Paul
4) Kyrie Irving
5) Derrick Rose (this low because he's hurt)
6) Rajon Rondo
7) Derron Williams
8) Rubio?


This list obviously leaves off the used to be legit guys like Nash or Kidd

Playing on the Spurs doesn't help. Duncan doesn't get enough credit and he's the best PF to have ever played.

This is hardly a reasonable reaction to one game.

Chris Paul had a shitty game. It happens. He's definitely better than Tony Parker.

When does Tony Parker get credit

For some unknown reason he doesn't get the benefit of the "Rings" argument like virtually every other great player who wins multiple titles.

The "Ring" guys always point to rings for some guys, but if you ask them to list their all time best PGs or even current best PGs, Tony Parker is always below guys who don't have any rings.

GO figure.
