You guys have total Simmons blindness. Earlier today your website (rightly) mocks an old moldy bit of nonsense from Bob Costas - a grumpy old man raging against the “look at me” generation.

Yeah, how much can reasonably be expected out of Chris and Blake. They’re basically going to have to play the whole game at near MVP levels.

Don’t disagree. Counterpoint, though: Parker looks terrible. He is so damn underrated, even after all this time. If you watch the Spurs at their best, all the passing is incredible, but the trigger that puts all of these teams one step behind is Parker just tearing people up off the dribble (Manu, also).
