San Antonio - On Saturday morning, Manu Ginobili expressed a sincere blessing through social media to longtime Spurs teammates and Tony Parker, a member of the "Big Three".

"In SA, you will miss @ tonyparker" Ginobilli sent a tweet. "Thank you for the unforgettable 16 seasons, I wish you luck, Charlotte will see you soon! # MerciTP."

Parker agreed on a 10 million dollar deal in two years with Charlotte on Friday and finished his 17th season career as a spar.

Spurious legend David Robinson also spent time expressing respect for Parker. Admiral in his last season, and Parker in his second season won the 2003 NBA championship.

"An incredible journey @ tonyparker is a child born in France, a true @ Spurs legend," Robinson wrote. "I can not ask for a better friend or teammate, please always support TP # Merci"

Spears Guard 's Danny Green answered Parker' s departure in an interview with El Paso 's television station where he was doing a training camp for youth basketball.

"I was shocked," Green told KVIA of the ABC Alliance on Friday night. "I think that he will spur a lifetime, which means he's still there, I think he can come back when he is still retiring, I think I will give him the full power I want to do it, but it's a bit shocking and surprising to me, I will not get too shocked. "

"I am very pleased to share the past two seasons with you," Gasol wrote. "Thank you very much, Mr. TP. Thank you. # Legend"

Before the NBA draft in 2001, Parker was invited to a summer camp in San Antonio Spurs. The coach of Gregg Popovich let him play with the Spurs scout and former NBA player Lance Blancs. Due to the ruggedness and physical defense of Parks' tanks, Parker felt overwhelmed, Popovich was ready to leave him after ten minutes. However, after seeing the "best" mix of Pike's best drama, Popovich decided the second time Parker's invitation. Parker improved the impression of the brand this time; the French later explained that Blanc "is destroying a crew member". Popovich believes that Parker deserves gambling, but Spurs still wants other teams not to choose Parker during the draft. Parker 's name was hardly mentioned in the prediction before the draft, and the shooting guard was chosen by the 28th overall pick of Spurs done on the draft day.

Despite Spurs 'victory, Parker' s future concerns are still in doubt. Spar did not try to get the Jason Kid of New Jersey Nets, but Parker told head coach Popovich that he wanted to be a starting point guard for San Antonio. Parker recorded an average of 14.7 points, 5.5 assists, 3.2 rebounds in the regular season. However, at the 2004 NBA Playoff / West Conference semifinals, spurs were defeated by the Los Angeles Lakers and refused to win. In the 2004-05 season, Parker's regular season statistics recorded an average of 16.6 points, 6.1 assists, 3.7 rebounds of the best career. He ranked 13th in the league with assist, and ranked third in the field goal rate. Spurs played strongly in the playoff, Parker played an important role in Denver Nuggets, Seattle SuperSonics, and Phoenix Suns. However, Parker struggled in the final game of Detroit Pistons.
