If Duncan was playing and Kawhi wasn't, how would we look faggot?
You are a shitty poster tbh. Makes no fucking sense. :lmao
Spurs were undefeated in the finals before cornrows became a Spur. Let that sink in daboom.Quote:

Duncan is the franchise and pop still riding his coattails at 40 years old smh.
Duncan 2016
Spurs got bounced by the 8th seed Grizz RIGHT BEFORE Kawhi arrived & swept them w/ Kawhi on the roster:lolQuote:

Tony with the 24.5ppg, 3.5rpg, 9.5apg.... Compared to Kawhi's 11ppg and 7rpg lol.
Bottom line is.... Duncan has anchored an NBA best defense without Kawhi. If this is what a Kawhi anchored defense looks like.... :lmao
I'm not disagreeing with that. I'm saying take Kawhi or Tim out of the game and the team looks worse on defense. You can't take these games and outright say Duncan is our DPOY.Quote:

Life after Tim is going to be grim :depressed:
Pop giving West that undeserved vet treatment and doesn't play boban how he should. Kinda like porker last year. :lmao

All the time? :lol Kawhi's shut down players holding them to their worst FG% in the season.Quote:

They can't even get anybody to sign up for the dunk contest too...
Hold this L Canada
Kawhi has defended so well Harden, Bledsoe and other quick guards this season, he's the best defender in the league...At Pippen level? Most of times.Quote:

Kawhi won DPOY last season after making an impact when he returned to the lineup so I guess Tim should get it this season for being missed when he has been out of the lineup.:lol

Dpoy is one and only draymond green, not only he got great defensive skills and can guard every position, he also has great mentalist power to get into players head, intimidate them and to make them his bitch, just like he did to lma in the last matchup...
Is it going to be this way after every loss? LMA not playing the entire second quarter hurt the team too much. If Tim isn't going to play LMA can't turd it up. Which has happened in both losses. For all that Kyrie and Lebron going off on that zone defense the Spurs still won the 3rd and 4th quarters. The Spurs usually don't find their identity till the Rodeo trip. Relax people. OP is correct, we won't ring without Tim and our D is better. The Kawhi contingent is also correct, we won't ring without Kawhi. I'll take some L's if it means Tim is 100 come playoff time.
I would support Timmy for DPOY. I would support Kawhi for it. You know, I'm just a caveman, your world frightens and confuses me. You have machines that fly. But one thing I do know is the SPURS' defense is historically good when both Timmy and Kawhi are playing.
Get well soon Tim.
This. Take one of them out and there will be cracks in the line. It might not look so bad against weaker competition but it's glaring against the other top teams.Quote:

The perimeter takes a severe hit with Leonard out. You have Green to help but the other guards (Parker, Mills, Manu) are weak links. Simmons isn't great but he might be able to improve with time and coaching.
I think you mentioned in the game day thread that this wasn't a great week for Leonard defensively. It's true. His strength is locking into one player and helping on others/recovering on his own man. Against the Warriors and Cavs he's been asked to do too much. You can't expect him to shut someone down when he's being bounced around on assignments. You guard guys differently. Having to guard Thompson a few possessions, then Curry, then Green, back to Thompson, etc is tough for even great defenders. Same with the Cavs. Lebron is a beast to guard on its own but to then pick up Love or that ugly zone is asking for trouble. It's even worse when you're expecting help behind you (funneling the player into the rim protector) and lack of communication.
The Spurs need a rim protector and guards who can do their own job in the worse way.
The debacle against the Worriers & Cavs was a ploy by Pop to reward Tim w/ a farewell DPOY gift just like he sat out Kawhi then unleashed him after the All-Star break which earned him a DPOY award.:toastQuote:

Paint problems With Duncan sidelined, the Spurs have given up 52 points or more in the paint in three of their last four games, including 54 in Monday’s 107-92 win over Orlando.
The Spurs were surrendering just 39.2 points in the paint when Duncan played in his last game Jan. 22.
“You know he is going to be in the right position,” Manu Ginobili said of Duncan. “With his size and length, he’s going to bother a lot of shots. He’s going to get two or three blocks, some big boards.”
it would be awesome if he won it... he'd join that jordan/hakeem/kawhi club.
We miss Timmy, we are not winning without him.
Just seeing where people think TD is in the DPOY race following the layoff / his return....
