They won't stop him but I think they are big enough inside to manage defensively. Parker scares the life out of me and what they'll do to contain him. Kidd and Billups are good, but speed wise...they are not Parker or even close.

Tony Parker is actually slower than he used to be. He has really been beaten up. But he still is blazing fast. The big difference is he has become a finisher. When he drives he now finishes... gets fouled, scores, or both. When he was really fast he could not do that. And then when the drives work and the jumper is on, he is very hard to stop. Cleveland must close the lane and make him hit the 17 foot jumper.
