Can't deny Tony's talent. There's a reason why he made the NBA at 19 years old. There are lots of players around the world his size. He was fast and fearless on his drives to the basket. That teardrop was deadly and reliable. He made highlights without dunking. Timmy brought stability. Manu brought style, and controlled, chaos. Tony brought speed and guts.
Thiery Henry supporting his boy. Les Bleus. Michael Finley was an amazing and very underrated player. But two great organizations Mavericks and Spurs genuinely respect him.

This gentleman was one of my inspirations to play basketball, I learned many skills on the court thanks to the great French Magician. Seeing him immortalized in the Hall of Fame brings back a lot of memories. Thanks T.P. for inspiring an entire generation.
When he showed up and hit his stride with Manu, I remember finally feeling confident the Spurs could beat the Lakers. They were such a dynamic tandem and Tony was fearless attacking the rim no matter if it was Shaq waiting or Ben Wallace
TP when I discovered your Height..I was surprised..it was that mine..you were so little in that League of Giants...but it was only appearence..You were a BIG BIG PLAYER..thanks for all the emotions that you and THE TEAM gived me for years..a piece of my heart is the Spurs Dinasty..TP#9 in my heart🖤🤍..like Manu last year...SPEECH
At his peak this dude sliced and diced through guys like no one else , such a joy to watch and absolutely infuriating as a mavs fan😅much respect Tony you deserve this man!
Well deserved...Tony parker a solid ball player for the spurs championship 🏆 teams in 2003, 2005, especially 2007 (Which I believe was his best finals performance) and 2014
Tony Parker was so automatic and clutch when it mattered most! One of the best field goal shooters I've had the pleasure to watch! Excellent dribbler and passer as well! Congrats Tony!
Can't believe him and Manu got snubbed on the 75th greatest player as a Laker/Kobe fan. Its a headache with Manu and TP running the offense with fluidity. I believe they're better than Westbrook and and no defense Harden.
not sure this is a cliche in youtube environment, but I've heard this saying: when Spurs play smoothly, it's on Tony; When Spurs play difficult, it's on Tim; When Spurs' back is against the wall, it's on Manu.
