Anthony Parker, the best ever player in EL

[pohani komarac]

parker-lagdon....parker by mile...lngdon was great system player, of ball shooter. parker was so much more. he was maccabi main play creator and was very complete player who also made his teamates better

Parker was just as good of a shooter % wise and did it with higher scoring average in his euroleague career, he was also better finisher around the rim.
Way better when it comes to feeding his teammates and a much better rebounder than Langdon was too.
Basically he was better than Langdon in every single parameter.

Parker was not as good of a shooter. Also, he was not as good at 5 on 5 team basketball, either on offense, or defense. That's the most important thing to me.

When it comes to shooting there was not much difference % wise (nothing philosophical just stats) and Parker did score more points. Just simple facts. Both players knew how to produce points, Parker just had more ways of doing it. He could take the shot in the end of a planned team play and could make them in one on one plays, he could dunk on center's faces and nail the three, a mid range fade-away or an athletic layup, he could score in any way possible.
Not as good at 5 on 5 team basketball? Are we talking about spanoulis or Parker now? This seriously is a joke. Can you please tell me what made u come to this conclusion? The fact he could make points off isolations when the team needed it? He wasn't the kind of player that forces himself on the game, he knew when to step aside and focus on feeding his teammates (which, once again, he could do MUCH better than Langdon) and when to take it on himself cuz the team needs him. He was anything but a selfish streetball-like player, the fact he could do amazing things with his athleticism doesn't mean he was'nt a team player

Maccabi fans overrate Parker.

The title is really provocative I don't think about Parker as of the undoubtedly best ever player in Euroleague. He did huge things in MTA and was one of the more successful and useful players in modern EL history but to call him the greatest and the best one - well, I think it's a definite overestimation. Still a really great player and one of the most well-rounded and multi-faceted ones. Good luck to him in his life after retirement.

Parker made most of his shots from 2 but he had 48% from 3 point line, in the NBA he had terrific percentage from 3 point line. Parker was a better rebounder, better team player, better penetrator, better defender, better passer and overall much better basketball player. Langdon though was a better 3 point shooter.
Just watch the statistics.
