Aside from Rose, Parker is the best finisher in the paint. nikka is atleast top 5.
Westbrick ain't better than Parker. 5.5 assists and 45% shooting.
The Spurs do have better weapons, but you know Ginobili missed about half the season right? In fact, Parker's assists went down when Ginobili came back as they always do when he's healthy because Ginobili is a really a co-PG who usually covers the primary ball-handling duties when he's in the game. Just wanted to clarify that.
We're talking about right now. And Parker isn't any type of version of Westbrook. They have different styles of play. Westbrook is basically a 2. He just looks to score and passes when he's doubled or runs into traffic in the lane. Parker is playing more like a "pure PG" this year, seeing things before they happen and setting up plays. Westbrook is a more athletic scorer who finishes stronger and can get his jumpshot off easier. Parker has more moves in the lane and the teardrops and floaters. Neither is any version of the other.he just outside of the top 5 for me
Rondo
Rose
Russy
DWill
CP3
that is in no order.
Parker is 6th
thats interesting because Russy averages more assists per game than Parker does in his career. This is actually the first season Parker averaged over 7 assists a game.
Parker is a not as athletic version of Rose and Russy
I gots him barely outside of the top 5 behind Rondo. Parker is the better scorer and shooter than Rondo, but as a pure point guard and all around play, I'm going with Rondo>Parker.
