Kawhi's replacement. Just has to shoot over 10%.

[Chinook]

Makes the signing of Williams make even less sense. My guess if that Pop's gonna be resting folks for a while

Does he have a FMVP? STFU then. :lmao

Resting players while struggling is gonna be such a mistake but they have to do it.. No cushion for error but OKC will probably take the 7th spot if we continue to play as poorly as we do.

[objective]

With those stats he's well on his way to becoming the next Marcus Williams

[spurraider21]

Pop unleashing the secret weapon

[loveforthegame]

And they reassigned him again.

[exstatic]

He played last night for Austin against the LAD. Seems like they might yoyo him up and down during the RRT as the Austin schedule permits. SA plays tonight in Utah. Austin plays tomorrow in Santa Cruz. SA plays Tuesday in Portland. Austin is then home on Wednesday to play Reno. Kyle could be racking up some frequent flyer miles.

[Johnny RIngo]

Can he play point guard? Pretty sure even he would have had more than 2 points against the Warriors.

Hey, The Agenda infects another thread.

Hey bruh! You got your days screwed up. Spurs play tomorrow and then Wednesday.

Yup. You're right. It's still every other day, but it starts Monday instead of today. SA: 2/23 2/25 AUS: 2/24 2/26.

Pop Hanging people up for the season? Naw, don't think so...yet

[ChumpDumper]

Yeah, looks like it's a happy coincidence of schedules. If the Toros weren't playing out west, Anderson would probably just be with the mothership the whole trip.

[wildbill2u]

I don't see KA as a good matchup against any of the guards, even bench guards, in the WC this year. Against the SFs he has very little to offer either. Truly I don't see him getting much burn down the stretch as we'll need every win we can get just to stay in the playoff race in the bottom four slots.

[ChumpDumper]

He's playing forward for Austin.

SloMo showing Kawhi how it's done. This season Pop is probably just going to bring Kyle in once in a while to help teach Kawhi how to dribble.

[wildchild]

Kawhi's replacement. Just has to shoot over 10%.

Kawhi's last game: 71.4% 2P 100% 3P

Like I predicted he's gonna be the best Spurs PG quicker than anyone could have imagined...

[daslicer]

It would be awesome if he could transform into Magic Anderson but I just don't see that happening. He's too slow to guard PG's in this league and might be too slow to guard 2's and 3's in this league.

[Roger Freemason Jr.]

Isn't Kyle a bit heavy for a SF? I know he naturally doesn't have much quickness on the defensive end, but maybe if he cut a bit of weight, or hit the weight room, he could at least get burned less. I think Kyle will be huge for the Spurs in a couple years.

He can handle the ball and not be a PG. I like the idea of him playing on the wing going forward. With Green and Leonard starting he could come in guard the lesser of the two opposing wings while Green or KL guards to better one. He would have big size advantage over most guards and some SFs in the post. Maybe some PF as well but he really hasn't played any in the NBA.

He could stand to slim down a bit but his length and size could he minimize his lack of quickness. He gets a lot of deflections because of his length. Most SFs play ,heavily, off ball anyways. Alot of the work is not losing track of his man off ball.

Magic rarely guarded PGs. That was left to Michael Cooper and then Byron Scott.

I don't think if he lost a little or even a LOT of weight that he'll ever be quick. I think he needs to go the other way. Once he loses the baby fat he was carrying, they should put him on a weight program and make him a PF.

[DrunkTXLabrat]

If he's Diaw 2.0, then why is he a 3? In a playoff roster situation, Diaw is the non-Duncan big. Doesn't that make Anderson the non-Splitter/Baynes/Bonner big? Is that rocket science? Also Anderson is too wide eyed. He needs a good dose of crushed spirit, like the spurs need Matt Bonner.

...And Reggie Willams. Which is oddly enough, exactly half as much as the spurs don't need Thomas Robinson, Malcolm Thomas, or JaMichael Green.

That's the only sense to be made of Pop's mad mad reg season rotation alchemy
