So here is one of the posts you were referring to. You consistently disregard the "if" part of my statement. If Tony had lead us to a championship, he would have proved to be a max player.
http://www.spursreport.com/forums/sp...et-max-if.html (Tony should get the Max if. . .)
If Tony Parker is the best player on the team this year, and we win a championship, he should get a max contract.
And what I mean by best player is. . .
Spurs get the 1st or 2nd seed in the West
Tony leads the team in scoring 24+ppg
Leads the team in assists 6.5+
If Tony can prove that he can lead us to a championship, I think we could build around him even after Duncan leaves.
But only if he proves he can do it this year!
