Spurtacular

Yep, those seven minutes really made the difference.

that minus three he may or may not have accounted for would have tied the game.

So much potential:cry

It's not just this game... dude is borderline unplayable, IMO

OP with the goods tbh.

Atleast Pop doesn't try to experiment with Jimmy on the floor. Bench warmer for life. :lol

not sure if you guys have seen this video, but this is kyle before the draft saying he'd be a perfect fit with the spurs

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MsOXd6jmMOc

I should clarify, this season... he's not ready, IMO

Maybe Fathead needs more mentoring from Butler... oh wait.

Shit player vs all the playoff teams. I'm not sure he plays minutes when it matters. Just like tonight when it was a close game and Pop didn't play him.

:lol

Op with the brave position that 14,th man should be cut from rotation.


I'm inspired for a bold take myself, BRING BACK COJO OVER TRASHY PATTY ILLS MILLS

Average player, not Spurs material.

Then sit Patty Mills and David West. Then it's a blowout.

SAGirl don't take it personal... just venting out :lol

LOL... did not see that coming.

Or cut them both and keep Butler.

But seriously Kyle's got potential. Kid is still pretty young.

Patty Mills is a proven playoff warrior. I never doubt that mofo. :hat

But next season he'll be in the dunk contest and would be able to beat Dick Bavetta up the floor?

Lol well he's slow and was blocked in transition, but he wasn't the only one. :lol

Then you look at the game others had and I don't think he as the worst Spur tonight, that could be more tragic.

I thought it was a decent pick at the time, but it's becoming more and more aparent his physical defencies will be very tough to overcome.

Cut Fat Head and Boner.

Sign Butler and give a pity contract to McGrady.

Win the lobt for them.

Assassinate Errors.

Dude is too slow for wings. To small for PFs. He usually can only get wide open rebounds. Never can fight for rebounds. He isn't the playmaker on this team. He can't shoot the three or even 2's over smaller players. No advantage when he has the mismatch.

Slowest release ever. No athleticism.

1. He passes well.
2. He draws fouls well (though I don't have the stats to back that claim up).
3. He rebounds well for a guy usually out on the perimeter.

In short, he's a huge point guard that's going to have to be a forward in the NBA. That will take time to change his game. We're hoping for Bobo reincarnated (though he's not nearly as athletic as young Boris) or a poor, poor, poor, poor man's Magic Johnson. I think they want him to be 1) Kawhi's primary backup 2) Eventually replace Manu and Boris as a bench playmaker. This is especially important as Patty is really a mini-shooting guard, not someone to setup the offense. Kyle's got a long way to go, but given he's on a rookie deal, he's cheap enough and young enough to see if he'll blossom.

Hey, Bavetta is pretty salty. Set a more reasonable target, like gimpy Joey Crawford.

I don't he is any of those things Bill...

:cry He's a good rebounder :cry - no shit he's 6'10
:cry High bball IQ :cry - really? 3ast 2TO Per36
:cry potential :cry - bs

(oh shit BillMC just basically said this as I was typing this lol, you my nig but he's trash man)

Most of the time players need to do 2 things when playing for the Spurs.

1 Shoot the 3 ball. Most players are going to be playing off the ball. If you can't do this one you are fucked.

2 Play defense.

He never spaces the floor or ever plays defense and is always subbed out because the Spurs get run over with him on the floor.

Well, if so, he'll eventually get cut or included as a bit part in some trade. But on a rookie deal, he's worth the slot. He's probably going to have to show us something by next year though, or he will be in serious jeopardy. Simmons too. (He's on a shorter leash given his high age for a rookie).

The more immediate question is how much will Pop play Kyle n the playoffs and to what effect? I can't answer that my friend. We'll see.

KYLE ALREADY EARNED HIS PAY BY DEFLECTING THE KREWHATE FROM PARKER AFTER A CRUSHING LOSS......MVKYLE

These meltdowns lol

The Spurs always go all in on the rookies. They train them hard. That is not to say he is good because he is getting playing time. The Spurs just need to do their dues through him. He didn't play any minutes vs the Clippers last year. He might get a couple this year. We won't be playing great competition right away.

Kyle has had stretches where he played some very good team defense. He has also had some games where he boxed out some much bigger more physical guys and rebounded well. He is a good playmaker. He has a very good midrange shot. He has literally spent some time at all 5 positions this, his second season. Pop has not finished experimenting with Kyle to determine where his skill set is maximized, but I do not think Pop intends to use him primarily as a backup 3.

I was out; only caught highlights. I'll have to watch the game; though, I hate watching known losses.

I said from the outset that Jimmer over Butler or McCallum was the right move. Now, neither are on the team for a reason. I like KA; but I glean that he f'd up somehow tonight. Spurs up 23 against a weak team; no excuse to lose a game like that.

All you'll glean is that the Spurs choked. Anderson never played in the second half. The bench was cold, Patty Mills was terrible, and I do mean terrible. Kawhi struggled and shot poorly...
And that this is a deflection thread by Nono to Manu having played 23 minutes and only scoring 3 pts with a few TO.

By the way Danny wasn't very good in this one. Total team meltdown that Kyle was not in. He did play 7 minutes in the first half and they were cold, but a you see in the second half the bad games continued. I am glad he didn't play in the second half bc this really want on him as Pop plays in the second half the guys he though would win him this game.

If you really want to know what killed US it was bad transition defense.

Meh, Manu was pretty good in his playmaker role. This thread was just an addition to the colorful meltdown tonight, and it's entirely humor. I'll take Kyle over Jimmer any day, tbh...

I was hoping you would smile when you saw this thread, tbh, but I guess peeps have been hard on Kyle lately, must be hard on CoK members... apologies...

Kyle already gets too much heat here without having much of set role yet. The day we are really counting on him to deliver us from something and he doesn't, hate away .. but as you can see some guys really do blame him for this meltdown.

Well, as long as we are trolling. ... Jimmer would not have passed up the opportunity to shoot a few 3s down the stretch in the 4th. :rollin

I'm disappointed by the pisspoor meltdowns after losses this season.

Not even one fire Pop thread?

KA's been coming into his own as of late. K-Mart's a poor man's Reggie Miller; but he's looking okay at times. I'd take Jimmer over Andre Miller though. All the same, I'm hoping Miller can have some effect against Livingston.
