I don't think they know how good of a scorer Parker is when he is the #1 option. 95% of NBA fans probably don't but what has been seen cannot be unseen and I know you have seen it.
Yeah, the problem is I saw Parker going off during the "dark years" from 2008-2013. No titles changes the perception of a great player.
If SA doesn't blow game 6 in 2013 against MIA, guaranteed you we're sitting here talking in hushed tones about how Parker won games 1 and 6 with unbelievable daggers. It is what it is.

Eh, I don't think he'd run our offense as well as TP does. Not saying we wouldn't be damn successful with him, but it'd be in different ways. More ball-dominant PG play than "beautiful game" ball movement, but no doubt Pop would get an insane amount of production out of him.
A lot of that "beautiful game" stuff is largely dependent on TP being able to get to the rim.
Him being able to drive and kick is what forces teams to start to help. It gets teams out of position, so their great ball movement is able to create open shots.
Chris Paul can get to the rim on anyone.
The Clips had the #1 offense in the NBA for a reason this season.

Incorrect--it's based off running TP off an ever-morphing series of screens more than anything. That's why his lower body injuries are so magnified--they hamper his movement running off all those screens, and the defense doesn't bend as much as a result.

Mainly a scoring threat PG and a two-headed monster frontcourt

I actually am in bed but there were 4-5 years there that he could have scored 30+ if he was on a different team, Tbird knows! He could get past any guard and take it to the hole and if a big switched he would pull up and he was automatic with his short-mid range jumper.Posted on 4/29/15 at 2:06 am to lsu480

Yeah, as a pure scorer, Parker at his peak>>>paul. Not by much, but still better.
Paul has always been a better all-around player, though.

Meh, if he wasn't such a threat to get to the rim then the defenses don't over commit. Generally the same concept.

One of those guys missed a ton of games and the other's offense is largely dependent on CP3 getting to the rim.
DAJ isn't making a bunch of post moves

Sure but in the Playoffs I will take the scorer every time since every game goes down to the last 2 minutes anyways

And he would have won his second Finals MVP.

Would've been either him, Green, or Duncan, IMO.

Green deserved it that year. He was a cheat code for the whole playoffs.
