Kawhi mentality = Robinson's mentality

[SuperCam]

Don't get confused by the thread title; The Admiral is a spurs mt rushmore player who was so immensely talented that he was actually capable of winning an MVP.

But the similarities are striking... both can't be the first banana on a title team. Just absolutely can't. Don't have the mental makeup to take the last shot and both are known to get owned by players they shouldn't get owned by when the team is relying on them.

The Admiral needed Duncan to put him over the top, just like Kawhi needed Parker to elevate him.

The little general once said:

"We can't wait for David Robinson to take us, because he ain't going to be there for us."

i'm thinking of a scenario where MVParker probably said something similar in the lockerroom during the Clippers series, tbh. Then the results forced PAFTO's hand into acquiring LMAlpha. We'll see if Kawhi can play the role of 3rd or 4th banana with the pressure off :toast

Robinson was absolutely a star, but kawhi is still too young to compare.

Robinson I think knew and wanted to be a leader, but didn't like the stress. The stress bothered Robinson but I never felt Robinson was going to crack. I mean the dude survived more basketball drama and humiliation than anybody.

Kawhi is unprecedentedly sheltered. I can't think of anyone with such talent who had remained role player for so long. That's a credit to the spurs for having depth, but also a question for kawhi whether he can and wants to lead a team or remain his entire career as role player supreme, a role he might be better fit for.

You're the same fucking person as OP. :lmao

Looks like we got a dabom melt down. I take it dabom is saying

"Kawhi is alpha now. The premise of this thread is faulty, how dare you compare kawhi to an ordinary hall of fame player"

Right, but he got his first crack at being top banana and failed spectacularly. And not just against a peer, but a 35 year old scrub. It was the hypothetical equivalent of The Admiral getting owned by, say, Hornets era Robert Parrish. Very concerning, and such a debacle that the front office immediately had to roll out the red carpet for LMAlpha.


There's nothing wrong with being a team beta. Every team needs betas, arguably in higher number than Alphas. I think the Spurs can thrive with 3 alphas in the starting lineup next season playing alongside Kawhi. But he needs to know his place in the pecking order, and his delusional followers should too.

I bet the Admiral was secretly hugely relieved when Tim showed up to training camp in 1997 and owned him so hard the spurs had to shut the blinds on the windows so the media couldn't see.

Duh any player would love a top 5 guy coming to smash Karl Malone. I don't think Robinson was softer than most players. Compared to Jordan everyone looks pussy. But all the soft you say about Dave you could also say about lebron. Lebron is better, but put Robinson in the current east teams.... Oh my! He'd dominate.

It's just fundamentally rare to see a star with that level of shyness kawhi has. And yet shyness itself is common for young men, But I really think kawhi likes basketball more than stardom. But whether he wants to be a star is not known. And frankly most people don't care as long as the team wins.

[kobyz]

Both beta matirial in their mentality but with different mental problem...

Truth Nukes by OP, and stats back it up :tu

[rastaspur]

It is the rare exception that a player with less than 5 years experience are capable of leading a team to a championship. Magic Johnson, Duncan, etc.

Give the man a reasonable window of time to prove himself. His level of progression has been impressive. You think Johnnie Cochran was freeing killers from murder charges 4 years out of law school? Nope.

How many years did it take Jordan to ring? Shaq? Hakeem? Etc

Sweeney's looking at the camera and thinking "wtf is up with this little trophy shit. I did good coach. I want a celebration cake. ( insert fat Albert chuckle - hey hey hey).

What a fat fuck Sweeney has become. That's sad

[Kuvai]

KAWHI Needs PARKER to elEVATE him?... Yeah Enrique Porker is sooo fat that he can easily ELEVATE (lift) KAWHI once kawhi wins his next Finals MVP...

[Kuvai]

PORKER Is a CANCER ON spurs team... Each and every other player plays for the team and this fuxcing cancer plays for himself with chucking and heroball.
Yet, it's so amazing that this forum is full of PORKTARDS..Might be MAVS or ROX fans...

[cutewizard]

The solution:

Both LaMarcus and Kawhi should average 30 points per game to silence the doubters!

hhahahahaha

[cutewizard]

Kawhi is the best defender in basketball, period.

For some idiot fans, go out and play some stupid street basketball, with some small balls! Lets see how good you are....hmp.

You know your takes are shit when TrannyNation backs you up

[YGWHI]

Kawhi...#4 banana


...a role player


So cute, K... responds himself when it seems as if no one is taking the bait. :lol

[YGWHI]

Kawhi "#4" option and "a role player" ...:lmao

[hater]

Kawhi is a great 2nd banana.

He does need his self confidence stroked very often, but then again so does Lbron and Elian Gonzales

So if the admiral is mt rushmore quality and Kiwi has the same mentality whats the problem? too much going on for non spurs fans, tbh

Agree. We spursfans should feel blessed to find such a legit 2nd banana. Plus he's got the right attitude. It's like striking gold for a 5th time in 10 years. Insane

Because kiwi isn't mt rushmore quality, except for the spurs role player mt rushmore right now. that's fine if he's never asked to lead a team and cools off on gunning for me-first awards like he's mentioned

How can you tell that? he is 24 yo and already an MVP and DPOY, thats more than lots of players would achieve in his careers.
How is that different from the admiral? the admiral did nothing before duncan and he is a patriot but Kiwi didnt qualify because he is a paraplegic retarded mongoloid slow minded depressive fella? thats rude.

[Leonardpart6]

Are you too young to remember prime Robinson? He was arguably the best player in the league for a time. He wasn't afraid to take the last shot. When he was at his best, his supporting cast was terrible. I don't understand this constant bashing of players. I get that some posters troll and others fill the board with nonsense like some kind of online Tourette's syndrome. No spurs fan should hate Manu or Tony. No sports fan should hate Leonard. No one who has watched the admiral's career would throw shade at him. Y'all a bunch a Trollin' ass baby dicks.

dpoy is a media bullshit award... tyson chandler has one and tim doesn't, end of story.


These days FMVP is simply handed to the player at LeBron's position on the other team if he loses in the finals. Role players have won FMVP several times before, nothing new about that.


The Admiral was a bonafide stud at 24...all star right off the bat, then 1st team all nba right after. Kiwi has had 4 years in the league with not even an all star selection to show for it.

So you complain about DPOY and FMVP being media bullshit, what do you think 1st team and AS selections are?
Stud or not the admiral won his first ring at age 33, thats like 10 seasons and Kiwi rang with 3 being the Lebron stopper in the biggest kickass in NBA history.

Robinson caved under pressure... spurs never should have lost to that 95 houston team. The admiral let the Little General shit all over him in the lockeroom and David just stood there and took it in silence. Begged for help to guard Hakeem. 100% Beta, which is why he didn't ring until Tim

How old was Admiral when it came into the league & how old was Kawhi when he came into the league? Kawhi is the youngest player to win bot DPOY/Finals MVP. Besides, it was his arrival that resurrected the franchise back into championship contenders.

Also splitter, Duncan's revival, pop getting his head out of his own ass, green becoming elite, parker heading the snake.


This whole... Kawhi is the heart of 5, is insane dumb. Bobo and manu were the passers who made it all possible. Green is 45 % of the wind defense. Stop being so player fan

Idiot, I think we have seen enough of the Spurs w/o Kawhi to say he is the MVP of the team.
-LoL @ bring up Porker when he was a role player in 2014
-Manu being absolute shyt in 2013 (both regular/postseason)
-Bobo also WASN'T an integral part of the team before 2013-14
-Tiago DIDN'T play much in two finals appearances

Danny might be the 3rd most important piece after Tim/Kawhi so I'll give you that one.

They all chipped in and there is no one guy but quite a few things at play on why they had a revival and got that title.

I can't stand player fans in here, they down guys left and right on the team and even Spurs legends of the past to up one player, sickening.
