He has got to be the most underrated player in the league right? Spurs are the number one team in the league with a 74 year old duncan, Manu who is still hurt half the time, and a bunch of players no one has ever heard of.

Underrated? How do you figure? Isn't he considered a top 5 PG?

Didn't we have a chance to land TP last offseason for Devin?
Parker is a little bitch. The Jazz need to suffocate him on the wings by playing good PnR defense, which both Favors and Kanter can do. Penetration is all Mr. 23% 3 point shooting does. He rides the coattails of Duncans good PnR offense and Neal/Ginobli/Bonner/Green excellent 3 point shooting. He wouldn't be anything special on most teams where you could stop him from penetrating by slacking off the 3 point line.
I want to see Evans block Parker's tear drop from behind by jumping over him.
What about all the games he won while Duncan was playing 15-20 min a game or even sitting out? Or when Ginobli missed 2 months? Or when he kicks the Jazz's ass constantly? But yeah screw him, he can't shoot the three. But he is absolutely one of the best finishers around the rim in the NBA, and runs the pick and roll like a champ, and gets anywhere he wants on the court whenever he wants, and knocks down 18 footers all damn day, and keeps Bonner, Neal, Splitter, and Blair employed and functioning on an NBA level. If teams could stop him by just lagging off and making him shoot threes don't you think they would have tried that? I guess you are ahead of the curve on NBA coaching, congratulations. That was one of the most ignorant basketball posts on this entire board.
