he is a capable scoring threat, and should be avg 25PPG with bosh out.
Is this sarcasm? AP has been playing very well, don't see how you could complain about how he's been playing since Bosh went out. There are only 4 players in the entire league who average 25 ppg, it's not exactly reasonable to expect AP to become a top 4 scorer in the league just cause Bosh is injured . . .

all i know is Anthony Parker's probably the classiest and most underrated player to play for this franchise.
i really hope they re-sign him (and expect them to re-sign him) once his contract is up.
he's great on the court and is a great ambassador for the team.
in a time where athletes seem to be about money and trying to keep street cred, AP is eloquent and down to earth.

I'd like to see them run more plays for him. He's always making smart plays when he gets the ball whether it's getting his own shot off or setting up a teammate. I'm also loving that he's started taking the ball to the rim much more often. In due time, he'll start getting a few more calls if he can keep doing that.
He's one of the few guys on the team that can actually create a shot for himself. I'd like to see him get between 12-15 shots a game even when Bosh comes back. It would be great if he could become that consistent second scorer that we need.

If one good thing has come out of CB's injury, it's Anthony Parker raising his game to another level. I just hope he can continue this kind of play when C.B gets back. He's really improved his offensive arsenal this season, he's scoring in a variety of different ways right now, not just spotting up behind the 3 point line anymore. He's the second scoring option we'll desperately need vs Cleveland in the first round. Oh and I can't forget about Rasho, he's been playing great as well.

[Chuck]He just flat out gets the job done Leo. You will never meet a classier guy than Anthony Parker[/Chuck]
No seriously though I love Anthony Parker (no homo). The guy is one of, if not my favourite Raptor. The thing I like about his game is that his athletism is so deceiving. Just when you think he's a jump shooter he comes and dunks on your head.

what sucks is he's like 33. if he was 25, he'd be a great core player but i can't help but think that he's not in our future plans every time he makes a great play. too bad we don't have a young anthony parker.

I believe that we should implement Anthony Parker as our legit second scoring option behind Bosh because with his shooting abilities, ball handling and driving skills, he can easily be getting 20-25 points a game. Sam should be trying to easily get him 15-20 shots because he can easily get 20 points on 10-12 shots, and getting 15-20 shots can give us legit scoring option. Its an idea for playoffs and to take a load off Bosh's shoulders.
