I hope Green is excited for Kawhi's return.
Yeah, I'm curious if he gets reinserted into the starting lineup right away. He's been away for quite some time. But a Splitter/Duncan/Leonard/Green/Parker starting lineup sounds intriguing.
Good to finally have Kawhi back. :tu
Now to get Manu back into the starting lineup and suddenly that team's scary good.Quote:

Tomorrow should be a good game to get everyone back on the same page, though I'm expecting a big win.Quote:

Two good points for sure. That's why Boris in the starting line-up has always had it's appeal to me. I wonder what the method of Pop's madness is with Tim and Tiago together and no backup center. It's going to be interesting to see how the minutes get distributed....Quote:

Kawhi not going back to the starting lineup tonight per Twitter..
resting his leg has very probably cost him conditioning. The way Pop works, KL may not be allowed full minutes until after ASB. :lolQuote:

“I’m feeling good, ready for tonight’s game,” Leonard said. “It’s been a while since I played. I’m happy. I love the game of basketball. It was a long process to get back to where I’m at. I’m just happy to get on the floor and enjoy the game.”
Leonard said he will likely come off the bench. He said he was not notified of any specific minute allocation. Leonard put his physical condition at around 90 percent.

I'm thrilled to be back!!

Tonight's #Spurs starters: Green, Duncan, Splitter, Neal, Parker.
Very happy he's coming back. I love watching him disrupt other players. Pop may be a maddeningly overprotective type, but least we took our time. I just hope his leg is stronger than before.
Tony said he expect Kawhi to start tomorrow: http://www.nba.com/spurs/video/121222_parker
For some reason, I never get mad at Kawhi. He along with Duncan is the only guy I don't get upset with. I really like this kid.
Yep, we really need Kawhi, I hope his leg is strong enough to go and not have any problems with it. He really does make a big difference to the team and it shows he was missed while he was out.Quote:
