In comparison Ginobili had 11 in 23 minutes and Pakrer 9 in 10 less minutes.
Didnt touch the ball at all in the 2nd quarter.
The spurs made a little run with kawhi getting the ball a bit in the third quarter.
Disgusting. Just Disgusting.
Wolves in the game for the whole game.
gino is better than KL.
Spurs made a run in the 3rd because of Boban, not Kawhi :lol
Not this shit again.
It's a problem. Even though you're a chronic Kawhi dick-rider, and even though you didn't need to start ANOTHER fucking thread for the comment. It's a problem.
But fuck bro, stop with all the damn threads. Seriously.
Leonard wasn't getting open or was getting double and tripled when he got the ball dumbshit.
Referring to the shot distribution or thread distribution?Quote:

Why yall acting like its not a fucking situation? Act like apalisoc didnt start this and think about it, your best player shooting only 9 times in a close game against a bottom 5 team in the league. Think about that.
Parker fans upset that they're boy shit the bed again. :lol

Manu did awesome, not Parker
It is an issue. Sometimes it does look like Tony doesn't want to give Kawhi the ball. Dunno what is going on there.
They need to run pnr or screens with kawhi. The double teams are coming hard and every time he passes back out the play basically resets; so, it's a waste. I don't understand why the coaching staff isn't trying to integrate him more into the offense and/or get him easier looks/better position.
Bbbut its apalisoc so it must not be an issueQuote:

Those are the reasons Leonard only took 9 shots. Not to preserve and balance his energy output for defense; not because it's Pop's way. Oh no. It's all because Tony Parker hates you and Kawhi. Truth is, if Kawhi took every shot Spurs would be 33-0 easily.
I didn't get to see the game (will watch on LP later), but as long as Parker and/or Manu are initiating the offense quickly, i.e. not over-dribbling/ball dominating, then there is no "issue." I've explained on here many times that your PG and best wing scorer(s) typically set up on opposite sides of the floor (look at any HORNS or Triangle set, and yes, there's exceptions). If Parker just dribbled down and threw it to Kawhi to "go to work," the offense would be stupidly predictable and the spacing Kawhi would have to work with would be shit, since Parker makes any side of the floor he's on the strong side. This also means the defense would have less space to traverse to double team, as Parker would bring his defender over as he tries to get the ball to Kawhi.
Wanting some kind of 2 man game between Kawhi and Parker would force Parker to make a lot cross court passes and/or compromise spacing as Parker dribbles over to Kawhi's area.
The best thing for Kawhi to work off would be LMA/Duncan post ups, as Kobe used to do off Shaq/Gasol.
Well....theyre pretty easy to hate.....wait for it........TBH!!!!Quote:

I think it's more along the lines of Kawhi fans overly excited that Parker played a bad game. I see more emojis than I see excuses.Quote:

In that sense, he made plays even though he didn't take the last shot.
But I'd like Pop to get him more involved in non post up situations, tbh
I agree with this, maybe tweak things a little to run stuff with him other than iso.Quote:

This particular one though is not on Pop. He got ejected with 2 mins to go in the 2nd Q. From there on it was Messina.
Let's just be glad we got this win bc the team was playing terrible, and yes Tony/LMA had an awful game.
Agree, basically posted the same as you, different wording.Quote:

I think Pop needs to make some changes here. Not saying overhaul to a Miami Heat with LeBron like offense (though we have the personnel to execute it) but a little bit more hybrid without sticking to constant motion offense...Quote:
