6:05 minute mark. No made up quotes here.
Reporter: Talking to one of your staffers yesterday, this person said that they noticed just how much more easier it is to score when he's [LMA] on the bucket. You know, obviously you guys like to move the ball, move players, but you have to execute hard to manufacture buckets at times and with him, it's just you just give it to him and he can score. Have you noticed that facet? Just how much easier it can be?
Danny: Definitely, definitely. We didn't have one of those guys where you just throw the ball to and say "Go get us a bucket", um, we have that now with him [LMA], and David West can do the same. So, um, that helps when were not shooting well and there's a drought, but it makes it easier to score because you cant double team anybody with there being a lot of threats on the floor....
Yet some player fan neck beards on here are questioning Aldridge taking too many shots. Like DG said, we didn't have a go to scorer last year. No matter how much you hype up Kawhi, no one on the team believes he's a go-to scorer.. Thus showing just how hard Pop tried to recruit LMAlpha, a true first option.

Damn, Verde just exposing Enrique Porker as the choke artist and fake "star" pretending to be a first option that he is.
You'd expect someone with a 20M/yr contract to be a primary option.. But nope. Green exposing Betas, per par.
So scoring is everything at basketball? no surprise OP is a big Porker fan, he scores... with the lowest % ever and zero ball movement/court vision/passing skills.
Kawhi is too busy shutting down monsters like Barnes and Alexey Shved, it explains his subpar offense
2014-2015 season:
Tony Parker FG% - 48.6%
Kawhi Leonard FG% - 47.9%
Tony Parker AST% - 28.7%
Kawhi Leonard AST% - 13.0% (career-high)
Tony Parker APG Per 36 - 6.2
Kawhi Leonard APG Per 36 - 2.9 (career-high)
Parker's worst season still outplaying a 20M/yr player in his prime
Aldridge's true first option, nothing new.
Kawhi's already one of the most impactful players in the league, his stats on both ends say that, and he didn't need to be the Spurs' go-to scorer to get those numbers.
So what's the big deal?
0.7 is outplaying??
Comparing APG between a point guard and a power foward? Just image if we compare RPG between Kawhi and Parker...Tony Parker APG Per 36 - 6.2
Kawhi Leonard APG Per 36 - 2.9 (career-high)
Since when is KL a PF other than in certain small ball stances? But I agree, APG shouldn't matter comparing KL/TP.
Yeah, considering it was Kiwi worst season and this http://www.spurstalk.com/forums/show...59#post82043592014-2015 season:
Tony Parker FG% - 48.6%
Kawhi Leonard FG% - 47.9%
Tony Parker AST% - 28.7%
Kawhi Leonard AST% - 13.0% (career-high)
Tony Parker APG Per 36 - 6.2
Kawhi Leonard APG Per 36 - 2.9 (career-high)
Now who is outplaying who?
In 555 minutes last season with Kawhi Leonard on the court and Tony Parker off, the Spurs had a +16.0 net rating: http://on.nba.com/1FGfUHQ
In 476 minutes last season with Tony Parker on the court and Kawhi Leonard off, the Spurs were -10.5 per 100: http://on.nba.com/1FGg6Xz
If Parker shoots in volumes and low FG%, like Mikeanraro said, what does that say about Kawhi?0.7 is outplaying??
Kawhi is a PF now? Kiwi s changing history books as we know itComparing APG between a point guard and a power foward? Just image if we compare RPG between Kawhi and Parker...
Comparing assists would actually make sense, idiot. They both have similar Usage percentages, but one chose to be a selfish with the ball.
Tony Parker USG% - 24.5
Kawhi Leonard USG% - 23.0
This....
Outplaying? 0.7? What's about these numbers...2014-2015 season:
Tony Parker FG% - 48.6%
Kawhi Leonard FG% - 47.9%
Parker
36.3 FG% 0 3P% in last playoffs
Leonard
47.7 FG% 42.3 3P% in last playoffs
Parker -11.4 FG% -42.3 3P%
I guess 11.4/42.3 >>>>>>>>>> 0.7...this really mean outplaying a player
Funny, same can be said for Parker. Yet you still count his last season as a grading curve for his career. Double standard much?
Stahp! It was his worst season
Oh, NOW playoff stats count...
But the season where we ring and Parker is statistically our best offensive player throughout the playoffs doesn't count. It's an asterisk*
One was guarded by the best defensive PG in the NBA, other was guarded by a 36yr old washed up scrub who punked your boy out when it mattered.
How sad is it when OP has nothing to do with Parker, yet Kiwi s bring him up and use him as a grading scale... When they themselves call him a Top 300 player, at best....
Thanks LMAlpha for rescuing this franchise from another first round bye led by Kawhi
My bad, I mean he's a foward, a small foward, not a guard.Kawhi is a PF now? Kiwi s changing history books as we know it
Makes sense??Comparing assists would actually make sense, idiot. They both have similar Usage percentages, but one chose to be a selfish with the ball
-Parker took more shots than Kawhi in the regular season
-Kawhi didn't have the ball in his hands like Parker
-Parker's the point guard who should distribute the ball, not Kawhi.
-Pop told Kawhi he shouldn't defer anymore, he should look for his own shot instead of passing the ball.
-By the way, if those numbers are true...Parker's asts rate is so low for a starter PG on a contender
Now? Of course...in the last two playoffs stats didn't count for Parker stansOh, NOW playoff stats count...
What about the this? there is a 26 point differential between those 2 on/off court with Porker being the worstFunny, same can be said for Parker. Yet you still count his last season as a grading curve for his career. Double standard much?
Do you still think he is outplaying a 20 mil/year player in his prime?
Danny Green taking shots at Parker and TD...
The Parker vs Kawhi is so played out. It's a new season come up with new material.
My first post has nothing to do with Parker
You're the guy posting Parker's stats and comparing him with Kawhi, here.
Anyway, it's hard to believe someone can think Parker at this point in his career is a better player than Kawhi.
Kawhi missed games due to pink eye and sore pinky.
Parker FGA - 12.2
Leonard FGA - 12.8
Yes he did. Already stated USG% above. Like you said, Pop wanted Kawhi to control the ball more and quit differing.-Kawhi didn't have the ball in his hands like Parker
You know this is the Spurs, right? You should probably give your suggestion to Pop on how the ball should go through one player and not the whole team.-Parker's the point guard who should distribute the ball, not Kawhi.
*Looks at our playoff performance* .... I noticed.-Pop told Kawhi he shouldn't defer anymore, he should look for his own shot than pass the ball.
No if's, they are true. Again, it's not Parker's job to spoon feed the 4 other guys, that's what the system is for.-By the way, if those numbers are true...Parker's asts rate is so low for a starter PG on a contender
Taking a on porker who can only score and can't do it anymore.
Parker missed games too and still took more shots than Kawhi
No, he didn't. Parker USG%>Kawhi USG%.Yes he did. Already stated USG% above.
Of course..."the system"No if's, they are true. Again, it's not Parker's job to spoon feed the 4 other guys, that's what the system is for.
