Now, LaMarcus? Pop? Sure.

I get that Kawhi has carried our sorry ass team most of the year but that doesn't take away from the fact that he hasn't played well tonight thus far tbh

[TheGreatYacht]

Sad that the only help he got this year was a 36yr old Tony Parker.

It's time, as fans, to start criticizing and expecting better instead of taking it like some hoes.

TBH he's 1 made shot away from shooting 50% from the field. Sure, he isn't playing at an MVP level but how many times can we realistically ask him to bail us out when no one else is hitting or doing shit on defense?

I agree but that is what all time great players do tbh....not like the rockets have anyone besides Capella who plays defense aside from Beverly. Kawhi should be taking over not trying settle for jumpers and forcing bad passes

I promise I'm not trying to show you up, but without looking it up......the only time that comes to mind for me is 2013. Tim was on the 1st team, and Tony was on the 2nd team.

[marinoman]

Pop needs to leave. It's so obvious playing 2 bigs is bad defensively for switching, clogs up the lane and Pau or lee are too slow and unathletic to get rebounds. This is a perfect series for bertans at the 4 too

[bic50]

hrs supposed to be the best player you excuse making cry baby.
He is the best player.

[FkLA]

Can't be so short sighted. Even if this years team isn't built to ring, a lot of big contracts are coming off the books in the next year or two. Parker, Manu, LMA, Gasol. All $15+ mill/yr players. If he's about winning SA is still his best bet since GS and CLE have no room for him.

[Darius Bieber]

Yeah, I'd be pissed off if I was Kawhi too. Having a knucklehead coach (who won't let Kawhi go to his full potential, having a leash on him with resting in the regular season while Kawhi gets injured in the playoffs anyways) with trash-ass teammates around me. 40 year old Manu Ginobili had to carry trash ass LMA (so-called second option) and Gasol to victory against the choking ass Rockets. If I'm Kawhi, I'm going west to the Lakers (after they land the free agents they want) or Oakland quicker than quick.

[Hoops Czar]

Name a time Kawhi had two teammates on the All NBA team?

[tholdren]

that's my point. best players don't cry for help. he sat spurs won. without their 2 best players. so he has enough help

[Hoops Czar]

that's my point. best players don't cry for help. he sat spurs won. without their 2 best players. so he has enough help

Seriously! He's the so called best player in the NBA and he needs to other super stars on the team to win? Is there a player in the NBA that has had more excuses made for him and his failings than Kawhi Leonard?

Only slightly. I don't think Kawhi needs to super stars in this league to win. Just look at this stacked roster... LMA, Danny Green, Patty "thrills" Mills, David Lee, DeWayne Dedmon, Jonathon Simmons. Not a Boobie Gibson or Sasha Pavlovic in the bunch. Harden would kill for that kind of supporting cast. Sure, the head of the snake isn't there to help shoulder the load, but damn, the Spurs still have players man.

[SpurOutofTownFan]

Correct, and Spurs made finals that year and it was technically before Kawhi fully blossomed.

My point was that it's unfair to call Leonard a choker when Paul can't make a conference finals with two other All NBA players (14-15). Though I think CP3's lack of conference finals is a result of playing in a brutal conference and failure to build out a complete rotation on his teams by the GM/Doc.



Name the last time Lebron did

Surprised Bosh only made one All NBA team and was during dark ages of 2006-07. Shows you how difficult it is.

Minnesota's current GM, Scott Layden, was literally just on our staff and now, thanks to his brilliant negotiating skills, this is the Big 3 he's working with:

Karl-Anthony Towns - 25.1ppg, 12.3rpg, 2.7apg
Jimmy Butler - 23.9ppg, 6.2rpg, 5.5apg
Andrew Wiggins - 23.6ppg, 4.0rpg, 2.3apg

Why in the fuck did we let go of him and keep the conservative alcoholic piece of shit we have as GM now? Trey Lyles who averaged 6 points on 36FG% got the Jazz the 13th pick today while Buford got cucked when trying to deal Green and Aldridge. The awkward SOB gave away Splitter & Diaw for practically nothing as well. What a garbage negotiator the guy is. Really. Don't give me the Kawhi-Hill trade either because he wanted Valenciunas if available and not in one second expected Kawhi to be what he is now.

Im sick of this drunk not being able to surround Kawhi with superstar talent. He luckily surrounded Duncan with help when Sam Presti, another guy we should've kept, drafted Tony Parker.

Richard Jefferson and Lamarcus Aldridge our biggest free agent signings were humongous failures. Now it looks like he'll be targeting Knee-Rose and 31yr old game manager George Hill.

Fuck off Buford, can't wait till Kawhi leaves and your drunk driving ass gets exposed.

So what? Is this going to be their big coming out party THIS year? People act like stats and resumes make a team. The friggin Cavs had a loaded roster and they only won 51 games in the small-bus conference.

The Clippers are historical underachievers.

The Mavs in 04? The Lakers in 04? The Nets in 12? The Dubs in 16?

They have some good, young players and their best player has never won shit in this League and he played in the small-bus conference too. Same thing for these puppies' Coach. The BEST this team will do is just replacing the Clips somewhere in that 5-8 seeding, but realistically, they'll be chasing the 8th spot and lose out, and all the "experts" and bandwagoners-in-wait will say, "Watch out for them in 2019!"

It's not just that. We lose all our best scouts to other teams. Buford should have stepped aside years ago. I agree, all the moves that made him successful were not made by him but Sam Presti who we also lost. Right now it feels like we are back in the 80s and early 90s when we only had one superstar and no one else to help them. So we can put up a good show during the regular season but come playoffs we will not have enough to make it back to the Finals.

2. Harden, CP3, shooters
3. Westbrook, George
4. Towns, Butler, Wiggins, Teague

and then

PG: Patty Mills, Dejounte Murray, Tony Parker
SG: Danny Green, Adam Hanga, Derrick White, Bryn Forbes
SF: Kyle Anderson, Jaron Blossomgame
PF: Lamarcus Aldridge, Davis Bertans

Disgusting to think about how stacked the West is. Spurs are on to something with punting on next season; let these "superteams" work themselves out (break themselves up after next season) while figuring out what they have with Murray/Bertans/etc.

OTOH they just gave Mills $50mil and PATFO have been pretty incompetent for years now. Wouldn't shock me if Kawhi bolts in a few years.

Yeah, no. PATFO isn't punting next season. They're punting the next 4 years with Mills and Gasol's incoming long-term contracts.

You have to much faith on the guy that gave huge contracts to Richard Jefferson and Lamarcus Aldridge. They guy who brought in Joel Anthony at the deadline. The guy who surrounds his franchise player with ZERO all stars while the other top players have perennial all stars next to them as second options.

I've been an outspoken critic of Pop/RC for years now; you're preaching to the choir. Still, with the going rate of mediocre players Mills' contract isn't surprising or shocking. I'm more pissed off at moves from last year and a few years before that have crippled the Spurs' cap.

[TimDunkem]

And now the Fatty Mills contract further cripples it. And you just know they're bringing back TP after his contract ends. Green will want a raise too. :lol

And how were they supposed to reload this year exactly? Contracts in the league are shorter, and you have guys being moved around with short term deals. Paul George might just be a rental for OKC. Player movement in the next 3-4 years will be at an all time high. Superstar players teaming up is becoming the norm. Spurs will lock Leonard up after 2 more years and keep building around him. The future looks great as long as he is healthy. Not worried.

[dbreiden83080]

You guys hate Tony, you hate Patty, many of you were against Chris Paul coming here. You motherfuckers don't know what you want at PG..

[Ice009]

You guys hate Tony, you hate Patty, many of you were against Chris Paul coming here. You motherfuckers don't know what you want at PG..

I didn't want a point guard. I was OK with Murray starting and getting a veteran to back him up if one of the rookies couldn't do it. I wanted a guard/wing with size that could attack and play defense.

[daslicer]

I think there is a 95 percent chance Kawhi will stay. Star players that have left their teams tend to be attention whores who seek the spotlight ala Lebron,Durant, George. Kawhi is a highly introverted person and those types of people are not into going out and partying. I think that also factors in why I don't see him going to a big market like LA granted he did grow up there but I don't think it has the same type of allure for him that it has for PG due to his personality. I think now he's gotten use to being the number 1 guy that I can't see him going to another team and taking a lesser role which could be the case if he decides to leave. You have to factor in that Kawhi is not a vocal guy and that guys on a new team can challenge his status as the go to guy where in the spurs locker room due to POP's presence and Kawhi's history with the franchise it makes it impossible to challenge his status. Keep in mind when Lebron went back to Cleveland there was friction between Kyrie and him at the beginning on whose team it was. I doubt Kawhi would be able to handle that type of situation well and I feel Kawhi probably knows that which is another reason why I don't see him leaving. Introverts love stable environments and despise being in unstable environments. Like I have said before Kawhi is an introvert and I don't see him leaving unless the spurs become super unstable such as Pop leaving and replacing him with an inexperienced young coach or having a roster filled with a bunch of young talent less immature guys that have no character.

They are two other things the Spurs have going for them on why I think Kawhi will stay. The first thing they have is that Kawhi has already won a championship with them. Stars that have usually left their teams left because they had never won a title before and didn't want to possibly go their entire career without a ring. There is a strong possibility the spurs will be able to offer Kawhi the Super Max. Unless Kawhi get's injured it's safe to say he will make the All-NBA team and thus qualifying the Spurs to offer him the super max. I'm convince the Super Max is very powerful in getting players to stay with their teams. Just look at how Demarcus Cousins and his agent begged the Kings not to trade him simply because they didn't want to lose the Super Max. Demarcus hated playing for the Kings but wasn't willing to leave due to the money.

[sasaint]

Exactly. My pipe dream (cheaper than most) was to somehow get Pat Beverley for Murray's safety net.

It's not his style and he hasn't helped matters by not playing high-school with other superstars and stars, but he needs to start applying pressure to the front office. I know they don't have much in the way of assets or flexibility (this is their fault), but every other top 8 team, outside of Celtics, who are loaded with assets at least, has anywhere from a second perimeter superstar to cut below All-Star player. He doesn't even have a starting PG, yet their answer to teams loading up appears to be locking in a significantly more expensive version of the majority of a roster that already wasn't good enough.

Sad now that even the T'Wolves have likely passed us by in terms of talent while Kawhi gets stuck with Fatty Mills, Fathead, and Fathead Jr...

[MaNu4Tres]

Spurs FO rubbed one out again this offseason. Even with the assets they can control this summer, they invested in the wrong kind of redundancy -- the kind that can't defend. You use the valuable 1st round pick on a shooting/lead guard PG in White -- one who will have trouble defending. Then you double down and spend 50 million to retain a shooter who has gotten killed for years on the defensive end when it matters.

Disappointing is an understatement. Didn't need to pay Mills when you have DeJounte, White, Forbes and TP coming back in December.

Now when TP comes back in December, no way in hell Pop sits him as the 3rd PG... Either Pop sits DeJounte no matter how good he performs or Mills plays SG off bench with Tony playing PG which will be very appetizing for opposing teams -- esp GS.

F so far this offseason tbh..

Im going to laugh when they let their defensive ace off the bench walk ( Simmons) and sign Pau to a 3 yr deal.

Management overvalues culture way too damn much.

[exstatic]

It's not just that. We lose all our best scouts to other teams. Buford should have stepped aside years ago. I agree, all the moves that made him successful were not made by him but Sam Presti who we also lost. Right now it feels like we are back in the 80s and early 90s when we only had one superstar and no one else to help them. So we can put up a good show during the regular season but come playoffs we will not have enough to make it back to the Finals.
Presti traded Harden for scraps, and lost Durant outright. Two All NBA players for no return. Now, he rents a player by giving up the only Other ball handler an creator besides Russ. Color me unimpressed.

[SuperCam]

1. Durant, Curry, Green, Thompson

Kawhi's quiet but the "he's not a vocal guy" is old. We saw him in last season and playoffs demanding the ball when the team was in trouble, calling plays for others, talking with Murray and the other young guys on the bench...

It's the result of the maturity Kawhi has gained as a man and player in last years, also an effect of TD's retirement, we all can see that Kawhi has become a leader.

He can handle those new situations in other environments, he's a strong competitor and will be the same guy in SA, LA, or Jupiter, but agree with you he will stay.

He will stay with the Spurs even if he has to play with a bunch of mediocre role players the rest of his career...

He'll stay in San Antonio for the same reason he played for SDSU, other bigger programs tried to recruit him after Fisher/SD showed interest in Kawhi but he decided to stay with the guys who called him first, who trusted in him most...
Kawhi will stay in San Antonio, not because he's "a highly introverted person" but because he's a LOYAL guy.

People who say Kawhi will leave just don't know him, which is sad if we consider he already played 6 years for us...

If the Spurs can't do anything to surround him with a legit Championship contending team, then he should look at going somewhere that can. He's worked his ass off to become the type of player that he said he wanted to become. The fact that he didn't come into the league with that kind of talent tells me that he has a burning desire to win Championships and be the best player that he can be. I don't think it will set well with him to not be competing for Championships, but again, most of us don't know what he really thinks as he doesn't talk much. That's just my guess/opinion. With all that hard work, he's now turned himself into a Superstar (which I have not seen happen with someone who was projected to be a high-end role player coming into the NBA), and I just think that he should be competing for Championships. Doesn't mean I'm not a Spurs fan. I want him to stay on the team, but I won't blame him if he wants to leave.

I can understand why he would leave the Spurs and like you said I wouldn't hold it against him. If he leaves it's due to the Spurs having a bad roster. This goes back to what I originally said which is your not a real Spur fan if your hoping and your rooting for Kawhi to leave the Spurs. You have to be a dumbass to want that to happen which a lot of these fair weather fans are hoping for it to happen. This forum has been filled with these type of fans the last few years. Prior to Kawhi's MVP season they were dumbasses who would get upset after a spurs victory and complain that Kawhi should force trade since Pop did not allow him to get 30 in the game. With that being said these fans are bandwagon fans and player fans.

[daslicer]

Get the heck out of there, Kawhi. They need the ultimate lesson taught to them.

:lol Yes such a great lesson to be learned because it's easy to draft and find superstar players like Kawhi. A bunch of trips to the lottery will be a fun experience for real spur fans. Your saying this out anger and frustration but lets be real the FO will not suffer if Kawhi leaves. Pop and RC are set for life financially and their legacies are set from winning the 5 titles. Look at how much Riley has suffered since Lebron left which is he hasn't suffered much despite being the reason to why Lebron left so I doubt RC and Pop suffer since they are viewed in the same light by the media as Riley. Yes it will hurt them for a short period of time but they will get over it immediately. In the end it's the fans who will suffer the most.

[Ice009]

Then they are trolls which I already pointed out.

Not all of them are trolls. Both you and Ducks should know of a different angle as I think the three of us grew up watching David Robinson.

When I was a kid I was heartbroken watching D-Rob have to carry a team all season and then saw him break down by the time the playoffs rolled around, or even if he was healthy, watch him be humiliated in the playoffs by teams with players that weren't better than him individually, but the opposing players' teams had much better supporting casts. I hated seeing that and watching him go through that to the point where his body broke down and his prime didn't last as long as I think it should have. I don't want to see that happen to Kawhi. He's worked his ass off to get to this point and I wouldn't want to see what happened with D-Rob happen to him.

That's why I wouldn't be upset with Kawhi if he left. I want him to compete for Championships and have a long career. He saved us by helping Tim get number 5. I really do feel Tim should have had a minimum of 5 rings, so I am forever grateful for that. It just wouldn't have sat well with me if he had less than Kobe, Magic Johnson and some of those guys. I think we should have had 6-8 rings, but we had some bad luck along the way, and also the re-tooling/reloading after some of the Championships wasn't good enough to repeat with the supporting casts he had to work with (2006 being the exception, the Spurs were the best team that season and should have won it). Kawhi helped the Spurs get that 5th one to make sure TD cemented himself as one of the top 5 players of all-time IMO, which is where I always thought he should be when he started his career.

Spur for life.

This. Only risk is if he feels no attachment to the organization post-Pop. Which is why we need Pop to hang around until on that 5 year Supermax is signed.

Yeah. Kawhi wants to continue to get benched after an opponent 2-0 run, or get his PPG shitted on at the end of the season.

Pop is actually hurting this team from attracting players.

[daslicer]

Not all of them are trolls. Both you and Ducks should know of a different angle as I think the three of us grew up watching David Robinson.

When I was a kid I was heartbroken watching D-Rob have to carry a team all season and then saw him break down by the time the playoffs rolled around, or even if he was healthy, watch him be humiliated in the playoffs by teams with players that weren't better than him individually, but the opposing players' teams had much better supporting casts. I hated seeing that and watching him go through that to the point where his body broke down and his prime didn't last as long as I think it should have. I don't want to see that happen to Kawhi. He's worked his ass off to get to this point and I wouldn't want to see what happened with D-Rob happen to him.

That's why I wouldn't be upset with Kawhi if he left. I want him to compete for Championships and have a long career. He saved us by helping Tim get number 5. I really do feel Tim should have had a minimum of 5 rings, so I am forever grateful for that. It just wouldn't have sat well with me if he had less than Kobe, Magic Johnson and some of those guys. I think we should have had 6-8 rings, but we had some bad luck along the way, and also the re-tooling/reloading after some of the Championships wasn't good enough to repeat with the supporting casts he had to work with (2006 being the exception, the Spurs were the best team that season and should have won it). Kawhi helped the Spurs get that 5th one to make sure TD cemented himself as one of the top 5 players of all-time IMO, which is where I always thought he should be when he started his career.


I don't agree with the David Robinson take in the sense their situations are not really similar. David had to play most of his career with bad rosters and teams that had no chance of winning. Kawhi on the other hand was spoiled from the beginning. He's not suffering the same way Dave suffered. David was called soft for years and had little playoff success. Kawhi already has 1 ring, 2 final appearances, 4 WCF appearances. If the Zaza cheapshot didn't happen I believe the Spurs would have beaten the Warriors and would have won it all. Also I don't see Kawhi's body breaking down like David's body did. You have to factor in back then the league was a lot more physical. David got beat up physically every game along with playing a ton of minutes while Kawhi's minutes are not even close to the amount that David played. What happened to David was terrible but you can't let that fear paralyze you when it comes to Kawhi.

I would not hate Kawhi if he left but at the same time I'm not rooting for him if he's on another team. The problem I have is that these trolls are rooting for him to leave the spurs. Everyday there is a hundred posts about how they can't wait to see him leave the spurs but they also claim to be Spur fans. That to me is retarded.

Then why is Kyrie wanting to join this team?

Same here brother. Watched Willy Anderson and thought, when they drafted Sean- him, David coming on board and Elliott were going to kill it, and the team did, but those darn knees of Willy's...
What could have been...

Not to mention TC's knees. He was a pretty darn good power forward before he got chopped down.

[TheDoctor]

why would any spur fan want this?
people should be spur fans not player fans

Bah, even RC Buford is a player fan ducks. Go watch Kawhi's introduction as a Spur and you'll notice RC wearing a BLACK Polo w/ a gigantic #2 in his back. Why no wearing a Polo w/ CoJo's #5?

Because he only drafted Cojo as a favor to his son who went to UT. Just like he drafted Fathead Jr. as a favor to his good friend Tad Boyle.

And the plot thickens. RC's a player fan more than I thought he was.

[TheGreatYacht]

Rose & McGee are had for the minimum and we're here giving $98,000,000 to Viagra Gasol and Pity Mills

Add the fact we didn't keep our most athletic player for $6M/yr. Drunk ass PATFO walking while the league is running

[Ice009]

We can't even get scrubs like Simmons for re-sign for a hometown discount, yet the Warriors are re-signing players for the minimum. Usually those types of players leave for more money.

Nobody want's scrubs like Zaza and Javale. That's why they are able to re-sign them for cheap.

I haven't really paid much attention to this thread but this has got to be the most stupid, doltish, imbecilic, and puerile subject, and position to take, that I have seen in years.

Just fans that don't want Kawhi to waste his prime and that want the front office to be exposed as frauds carried by once in a lifetime talent.

Anyone suggesting Kawhi should leave please go kill yourself.

[TheGreatYacht]

Magic Johnson is on Undisputed saying Kawhi will be the face of the league once Lebron hangs it up, then a minute later is saying his team will have cap space for 2 max players :wow

All this a day after PATFO commits $170,000,000 to Patty Mills, Lamarcus Aldridge, and Pau Gasol over the next 3-4 years...

[Ice009]

Both the Clippers and Lakers would be crazy not to go after Kawhi with everything they have.

How many years did Jerry West sign Gallinari for? I think it was 3. Is there a player or team option on the third year?

[Arcadian]

Go make LA great again, young king.

Lol at guys thinking kawhi would ever stay long term in San anotnio.

Go to Lakersground and make it shittier again.

Spurs FO rubbed one out again this offseason. Even with the assets they can control this summer, they invested in the wrong kind of redundancy -- the kind that can't defend. You use the valuable 1st round pick on a shooting/lead guard PG in White -- one who will have trouble defending. Then you double down and spend 50 million to retain a shooter who has gotten killed for years on the defensive end when it matters.

Disappointing is an understatement. Didn't need to pay Mills when you have DeJounte, White, Forbes and TP coming back in December.

Now when TP comes back in December, no way in hell Pop sits him as the 3rd PG... Either Pop sits DeJounte no matter how good he performs or Mills plays SG off bench with Tony playing PG which will be very appetizing for opposing teams -- esp GS.

F so far this offseason tbh..

Im going to laugh when they let their defensive ace off the bench walk ( Simmons) and sign Pau to a 3 yr deal.

Management overvalues culture way too damn much.

Interesting.

[SAGirl]

Interesting.
You nailed it. It’s sad. One would rather be wrong on stuff like that. It was very predictable too.

I think he only gets traded if the team were to add a big fish in FA, which makes it unlikely bc Spurs just don’t tend to attract the bigger fishes in the pond.

That SOB is on fire. Damn. First he drafts Lonzo, Hart, and Kuzma all in the same draft and now this?

All the while our weirdo GM is picking his ass and making Livio, Milutinov, Fathead, Deshaun Thomas, and Delonte Murray smell his fingers

My post was from October when the season had just started. At that point, it was completely irrational to want Kawhi gone.
