parker and manu have carried this franchise to titles in 2005,2007,2014 = hall of fame lock

Manu shot 25% in a series and the Spurs practically swept.
Carrying. :roll:

2nd part: if the answer is none, does anyone think Kawhi Leonard may be the first Finals MVP not to make the HOF. (obviously too early to tell, but its worth a prediction)[/QUOTE]
Baring injuries, Kawhi will make HOF. 1st ring and FMVP at the age of 22 is just the beginning. If Spurs repeat, Kawhi will get [I]another [/I]FMVP, and he wont be in his prime yet either, let this sink in.
Speaking of FMVP, neither C.Maxwell nor Billups will make HOF.

Where were Parker and Manu in last year's Finals?
[QUOTE=joeyjoejoe]He was at best third place for fmvp this year, and he was shooting for it in game 5 just couldn't get it done, was also terrible in the last finals, got outplayed in every game by westbrook in wcf then in game 6 they took him out at the half down dbl digits and came back to win with him on the bench. Just seems strange for a hof lock to never have been allnba first team but guess some of that has to do with being from outside of the u.s[/QUOTE]
I've said it before...the only way Parker starts getting all-star starts and All-NBA first teams is if (1) Chris Paul learns how to win, which will inevitably lower his stat-padding, (2) Tony Parker learns how to lose, which will inevitably jack up his stats, or (3) Parker gets traded to a bottom feeder or even mediocre team (like Paul's Clippers) where he can pad like crazy.
[QUOTE=T_L_P]Getting into the NBA HoF is a joke...and once they let Mitch Richmond in, this should not have been a question.
Parker is a lock tbh. Carmelo Anthony is a lock. :oldlol:[/QUOTE]
Everything about that comment :facepalm
Agree HoF is kinda pointless the way its used, but your reasons, no.
[B]Definitely.[/B]
[QUOTE=Collie]Cornbread Maxwell[/QUOTE]
[B]Yes.
Better question would be: how many FMVP's are not yet in the HoF but definitely deserve to be?... Answer would be Jo Jo White. Cornbread was a really good player and won FMVP (that should've went to Bird) but not really a HoF'er, at all.[/B]
[QUOTE=Artillery]Where were Parker and Manu in last year's Finals?[/QUOTE]
Where was Parker? He was running the offense as usual, holding Chalmers and Cole to terrible shooting numbers, leading the team in scoring in games 1 & 5, second on the team overall in scoring, leading the team in assists, hitting the game-clinching miracle shot in G1, having one of the biggest sequences in Finals history in the last 2 minutes of G6 (tying 3 over Lebron, steal, go-ahead leaner over Chalmers, outlet to Manu for free throws twice to seal the game...and then on the bench at the end of OT for some reason, just like how Duncan got benched in regulation), and then playing through injury in G7 (the whole series really, but it kept getting progressively worse). That's where Parker was last year. Oh, and defending the Lebron AND Allen 3s at the end of regulation in G6 when no one else could seem to guard them.

Why are you singling out G6 against OKC (which wasn't even an elimination game for the Spurs)? Why don't you look at the most important game of the Spurs season and ONLY elimination game, Game SEVEN against Dallas? Where was Parker? Oh, I don't know, dropping 32 and giving the team a chance to play for an NBA title. And what about the whole series against Portland where Parker torched Lilliard? Or what about Parker leading the Spurs in scoring and assists through the entire playoffs? Oh, no, let's concentrate on one game where he played the first half through injury. And it's like you're acting like the Spurs were better without him. What about the Spurs winning the other 3 games with him?i guess that doesn't matter. Maybe we should trade him....you're right...or just cut him. He's holding the Spurs back.

Lol plenty of guys with rings that actually put up good stats, parker just aint top 3 pg not saying he's not top 10 coz he is but he's very much a product of of pop and duncan, without Tim parker has no rings simple
