How do you rank TP these days? I was reading this comparison between TP and Rondo from 2011 http://www.celticsblog.com/2011/8/10/2356634/rajon-rondo-vs-tony-parker-who-ya-got

and thought that TP really has the edge when it comes to controlling the offense of a team.

Let's hope the spurs can finish it off and win the title.

I'll take Rondo if only because he's four years younger than Parker.  I've always seen Parker and Rondo's career paths as being on very similar trajectories. 

As good as we've already seen him, there's a strong possibility that Rajon Rondo will be playing his best ball 3 to 5 years from now.  That's something to be very excited about.

What a shame to see West Finals in 4 games. In my opinion Memphis is avery overrated team. Was better for the NBA fans to see Denver or LAC playing in the finals Vs SAS

That awkward moment when they both got ousted in the first round ;D

Funny thing is I'm more confident with Memphis against Miami than I am with Spurs against Miami

Memphis does not even have a chance to beat MIAMI...No way. SAS have experience to be a champion team.

Wow, nothing like having Larry Bird publicly question a teams toughness to get them going!

Good start by Indiana. 9-0 Pacers.

Smart timeout by Spoelstra. Crowd pumped up right now. Clearly feeding the players energy and vice versa. Take some of the steam out of them.

Indiana playing with a lot more energy compared to 2 nights ago so far.

Lebron cleanly blocked 3 times in a row down in the paint, refs feel bad and give the poor guy a foul call.

Indiana threw away that good start pretty quickly. Worrying.

Paul George should really take advantage of Ray Allen when Ray's checking him. Take him of the dribble and drive young fella!

There is no way Ray Allen can successfully pressure the ballhandler. Stevenson will take him to the hole every time.

Celtic fans thinking about how we missed out on Tim Duncan. What we should be thinking about is how we missed out on Larry Bird and brought in Rick Pitino instead that was the major fumble of the 90s
