Kawhi can't hit the side of the barn, tbh..

[TheGreatYacht]

He better get it together during this All Star break, need to get HCA...

S/O to ElNono

[loveforthegame]

He's just a role player. We'll win without him.

[wildchild]

He's just a role player. We'll win without him.

:tu

We'll win without him in playoffs, too. Trade Kawhi!

[Uriel]

I believe the correct idiomatic expression is "can't hit the broad side of a barn."

[KL2]

Shots are popping in and out and he's getting fouled, not worried Tbh.

[tmtcsc]

The rim was so wide it was like shooting pigs in a blanket.

[wildchild]

The Spurs looked amazing without him this season, we need trade him during the All Star break.

It's a good time now when teams are still interested in him, what's about Detroit?

I loved how local reporters were talking about his game before the draft.
http://www.mlive.com/pistons/index.ssf/2011/06/kawhi_leonard_would_provide_de.html

They have some piece of trade that can match the Leonard's rookie contract?

[ElNono]

I was thinking about starting this thread, but then when I went to check the numbers, he actually shot 34-83 in the last 6 games (including the 2-12 against Detroit tonight). That's about 41%, which is not a bad number.

He's just been inconsistent, mixing up 50%, 70% games with 22%, 23% games... it also doesn't help he can't seemingly get to the line, as he's can't buy a call right now.

While he can always get better, he's doing all right right now. Just need to pick his spots a bit better so the production isn't as inconsistent.

[ChumpDumper]

He sucked at scoring tonight.

It's OK.

[spurtech09]

who cares.....spurs finally have a pretty solid win....Kl will bounce back

[Nathan89]

2-12 :lol

[rasuo214]

Good defensive game, a little too aggressive on offense (stalling the offense a bit and forcing shots), he did have some nice passes though. Hopefully the break helps everyone out because the rest of RRT won't be easy.

[Nathan89]

Instead of chucking up shots he needs to recognize the hot hand in Parker and green. He's young though so he's still learning.

[midnightpulp]

Don't mind the shooting percentage. It was only 12 shots. When I usually look at Leonard's statline, I always look at his boards, steals, and blocks before his scoring. And he filled up the sheet in those areas in only 28 minutes. :tu

[NASpurs]

Typical Parkertard focusing on one side of the floor just like their hero.

[dabom]

Good thing he can fall back on his defense. :lmao

[Legacy]

NONISSUE

[TheGreatYacht]

^ Harlem has no words to add :lol

[wildchild]

After Blake's injury the Clippers could try to add some player to keep pace in the West.

Kawhi played two great games against them this season, Rivers had some nice words for him...

They have something to include in the trade package? If Leonard could play home or maybe in New Orleans with Davis, it would work great for both sides.

Hopefully we can trade him. I'll look ahead to the future with justified hope if Kawhi can be traded to Clips or Pels.

[Arc]

he isn't shooting well, but his playmaking is top notch. once he gets respect from the refs, and learns how to finish better. watch out.

[DMC]

The rim was so wide it was like shooting pigs in a blanket.

Yep, it was flowing like a horse to water out there.

[DMC]

Contract year!

[Pauleta14]

Nothing to worry about imo, just part of the learning process...

I'd like him to focus on a couple of moves he could do anytime like Timmy tony and Manu have/had tho

[100%duncan]

lol joestradamus

[wildchild]

OP joestradamus :lol

[barbacoataco]

He seems to be pressing on offense and his shots aren't falling. But he still has a huge positive effect on many facets of the game even when he isn't scoring. That whole eye issue seemed to ruin his groove but I'm sure he will come back. With Leonard it is important to remember he is only 23 right now. As Charles Barkely once said, young players get better and old players just get older. Hopefully Leonard will be back on track as March rolls along.

[Clipper Nation]

:lmao And people try to act like Kawhi isn't blindly hated by Enriquesuckers. Just because he doesn't blow his load on the regular season doesn't mean he's not option 1B (with Duncan as 1A) when shit gets real.

[Clipper Nation]

Wow, what a coincidence - OP posted this thread at nearly the same time as Joestradumbass tweeted this:

lol what's with the developmentally disabled dude who talks about trading Kawhi in every post regardless of the topic. You know who I'm talking bout. Spurstalk has some pretty 'tarded posters, tbh, it's like every player on the team gets assigned a dedicated autistic dude. :lol
Does Reggie Williams have one yet?!

He likes kawhi. He just decided to be sarcastic like 24 hours ago and play on these weak minded fools that make fun of kawhi for no reason.

You should really head back downstairs where you (sort of) have a clue.

[Godbama]

O man you made me laugh too much. :lol
Damn, I got got, it's getting impossible to tell the difference between the performance acts and the real posters then. To be fair he came off as your typical Spurstalk poster (read: durfffffffff). It's funny because reading his posts even when I thought they were legit made me kind of want to start doing it myself.
TRADE TIMMY!!!!!

Reading it again, it looks very non-sarcastic. :lol

A little bit of sarcasm posting annoyed trade's comments to do an impersonation of OP, using his hate, immaturity, incessant whining/poor takes about Kawhi...

[cd021]

His 3pt shooting has been trending up. Thats a good sign considering last season he found his range after the all star break.

been like that since his rookie year.

what's amazing about kawhi is that his overall raw numbers increase significantly after the all-star break...It's amazing.

[TheGreatYacht]

Much needed bump. 1-10 at half time

[loveforthegame]

Needs time with Chip that's for sure?

[hater]

what's he been doing in his off time tbh?

not good use of practice time smh and he wants the max???

[dabom]

No legs tbh

[Nathan89]

Needs more rest

[Godbama]

Hey, maybe this sort of thing will make him humble and less max hungry? I'd like the Spurs to retain him no matter what, these silly Parker/Kawhi forum bitchwars aside.
But nah I guess some asshole team will for sure offer him the max and make us match. :bang

[illusioNtEk]

Kawahi is just rusty you guys.

Let's give him at least 2 weeks then bump this thread down the road shall we? Spurs should come into form during March in my opinion.

[hater]

exposed

[Sean Cagney]

Needs more rest
Yep, young still and after the All Star break, he must be tired as all hell man :lol

[hater]

:lol future of the Spurs :lol

I was joking tbh. The "no legs" comment above mine triggered that response.

I know you were joking man, I thought it was funny. I don't know if he was serious though, hope not for Gods sakes.

[MI21]

He can't dunk now either... weird. He looks to have lost all confidence offensively.

[SupremeGuy]

He can't dunk now either... weird. He looks to have lost all confidence offensively.I think it's cause he's playing for his hometown crowd, tbh. It's weird. Never seen him this rattled. I think Pop should keep him out there for defense though.

[cd98]

Just an off game. We miss his defense...kind of need him in there to wreck havoc, but they aren't guarding him.

[TheGreatYacht]

But he has potential

[boutons_deux]

he lost all confidence in his shot, missed 2 FTs.

[in2deep]

he's young. looks like he's hit a wall or something

[Chinook]

Again, seems more like a quality of shot thing. Dude is not ever going to be an efficient first option. At best, he'll be Melo-lite on O. The Spurs will definitely need two more dominant offensive players after the Big Three leave

[apalisoc_9]

I'd give him the benefit of the doubt. It's his first year as legit option.

But yeah, of course we need other dynamic scorers after the big 3...Duncan, Parker, manu would ever win anything without other dynamic scorers in the team.

What I don't understand is why Pop is so inlove with Kawhi ISO's...I've never seen him in a horns or zipper situations this year..Just ISO after ISO...So he's numbers is always going to look bad.

Another one leaving Kiwi's world to enter the real world.

[Chinook]

Lol. I'm not a member of the CoK. I like Leonard and think he's a max player. But I don't think he should try to be a first option. He's just not efficient enough when he creates for himself, and doing so severly limits the type of roster that can be built around him. The dude's a piece to the puzzle, but not the main piece.

[Budkin]

Sad to see, really looked like he was going to explode this year. He's only regressed.

[SnakeBoy]

So you're upset Pop hasn't accepted that Kawhi is just a role player?

The players also don't know how to play with kawhi as the center piece. They just stand there. No cuts, no picks, no multiple picks, no passing it to kawhi in his sweet spot and passing it to him when he is at the 3 point line only. :lmao No reentry passes.
They actually make it 2 times harder than other first options out there and he still shoots just as good as them except maybe harden or durant or lebron.
I don't see you blame his teammates for a part of his inefficiency. Even with all the struggles he is still going to be the best player for the spurs this year in the playoffs. Bet on it.
