Re: Why is Kawhi getting a pass?
Fuck giving Kawhi a pass.. He sucked today and it hurt us.Props to LaMarcus Aldridge for being a real star when the team needs one to lean on. Kawhi is doing his best to be the next Kobe Bryant.....

Re: Why is Kawhi getting a pass?
Disappointing game by Kawhi for sure. He has the road games to redeem himself.

You're talking to the wrong poster :lol

Bottomline is, kawhi cant have an average SF type performance in the playoffs

He's frustrated about the non-call when he attacks the rim, but he still gets buckets in those plays.
Pop was resting him the whole regular season...Theory number one is simply discarded.
Yeah. Kawhi often settles. I've been calling out his lack of consistent aggressiveness with the dribble-drive all season. This isn't a new trend.
Kawhi averaged the most minutes on the team. And why is it a surprise to you that Pop would limit the minutes of his star players in the regular season? He's been doing it since '06. I agree it should be full bore minutes in the playoffs, so there has to be another reason why Kawhi was limited tonight. I'm thinking he's a bit banged up. There's no other plausible explanation, unless you really buy Pop=Senile/Stupid/Retarded. It's funny to claim he is in the heat of the moment, but I assure you he isn't.

Pop never rested Tim in his 20's. Now he's resting a 24 years old. All the regular season. And playoffs. Just unbelievable.
About Pop being senile. No, he isn't. But he's not coaching at all.
Also, he has been horrible in late-games decisions the last three seasons.
Call a play to close a game or a quarter? Nah. Just give the ball to X player, without screens, without any team-work, making the player to realize how to score.
That's fine in the regular season but in playoffs? Just draw a fucking play, Pop!
Re: Why is Kawhi getting a pass?
I don't think he was bad but he still needs to be better and we can't in any way expect LMA to continue shooting flawlessly.
I do also think that Pop's messy rotations this game had its worst effect on Kawhi who absolutely should have had at least 5 more minutes playing time.

I'm not going to deny he's been shaky, but, has it ever occurred to you that the players on the court may have screwed up the play that was called from the sidelines?

Really? What's about his series against Blazers, or the 2014 Finals?
What's about this playoffs?
Of course, he didn't have "an average" performance before this game...Because he was beasting.

Tim was the only all-star level player we had then. Pop also learned from his mistakes of overplaying Tim and other key players during the regular season. Don't you want Kawhi to have a decade-long stretch of MVP candidate play? There's no way a 2 way player like Kawhi can play 37-40 minutes per game over 82 games and not burn out in 4 or 5 years.
I don't know what was up this game. I said in the game thread Kawhi should've played 45 minutes. I think he's a bit gimpy from that fall he took in game 1. Hopefully the 4 days rest heals him back up to 100%.
It's the only explanation. And if it's true, I'm okay with Pop being cautious. You don't risk further damage to what is probably a minor injury in game 2 of the 2nd round.
If Kawhi was indeed 100%. Then Pop is a dumbshit.
