Kawhi didn’t deserve that Finals MVP over Manu or Timmy tbh. That was damn disgraceful and still makes me ill!!!

Kawhi led in points, steals, blocks, PER, shot over 60% from the field and over 50% from three...AND had the biggest moments... How in the world did Manu and Tim deserve it more? Come on now... Kawhi was the very clear MVP

You can twist the facts to fit your narrative, but it doesn’t change the truth tbh.

Twist facts? Those are the facts!!! YOU are the one that disagrees with facts and the entire basketball world by saying Manu and Duncan deserved it more in 2014...just because YOU like them more doesn't mean they deserved it more... You aren't even giving reasons... You are just making a silly statement as fact... I'm posting facts...

I post facts... You post insults... And I'm the worst? Ok, by your standards let me improve my quality of posts... GTFOH you incredibly dumb, poor excuse for a fan... Nothing you have to say is of value or intelligence... You are easily one of the two stupidest people I've talked to today... And the second place one is my dog

Also, iso post ups to Aldridge for fadeaway jumpers won't work past the 1st round. I used to make fun of Rockets fans who relied on this junk .. that is all.
Posted 4 weeks ago but this was the easiest call to make tbh.
Go ahead and add Forbes, Tony and Bertans to this list too.

Easiest call was Kawhitter tbh. Two straight seasons of not showing in the playoffs tbh. :wakeup

Re: Useless players in the playoffs
Well. Not sure what you mean by easy but not every Spurs fan felt this way (note: not talking about just spurstalk posters). Frankly, those fools would probably be able to hide their ineptness a little longer if we had beat the Pelicans on game 82 and faced Portland instead.
That's the most frustrating part. The large roles they are given all season are a waste to our chemistry. They are helpful against 28 teams but worthless against the top contenders. So they may help artificially inflate our regular season performance but have an exponential net negative vs contenders, bc not only do the 5uck ba11s, but our team chemistry we built in 82 games gets wasted since Rudy now starts, etc.

Re: Useless players in the playoffs
Their chemistry is fine. Rudy was coming back from a major injury and got injured again missing both all training camp and 25 gamswg this year. He has played as well as you can expect considering no superstar and injury situation.

Re: Useless players in the playoffs
People forget Rudy’s injury he is comming off a Torn Achilles which ain’t no joke as far as rehab and recovery.
Very suprised him and Parker have been able to play so soon after major injuries

Their chemistry is not fine. Fine enough to beat 28 teams.

Re: Useless players in the playoffs
OK stu. Suit yourself since a matter of opinion is opinion after all and you know what they say about opinions? They are like buttholes. We all have one. Dude was coming from a major injury and is playing as well as you can expect anyways.
IMO Spurs have problems of talent and roster construction but aside of Kiwigate, chemistry has been fine.

Re: Useless players in the playoffs
I agree Pop had fucked up rotations all year it’s OK to be mad scientist for first month but after that you need to put guys on regular rotations barring injury.

Dude. I love Rudy. Look at my limited post history. He's the only hope I felt we had in the playoffs.
Even Manu admitted how jacked up their chemistry is this yr, due to the revolving lineups.

Re: Useless players in the playoffs
Exactly... I thought the max scientist stuff went on all year... You can't say at this point guys aren't used to playing with everybody. If anything there were guys whose rhythm was affected bc they weren't playing enough... But chemistry is not an issue this late in the season and with as many minutes as everyone played.

Yes. You state yours and ill state mine.
We are playing the triple towers (gasol, lma, gay) together which we rarely did all yr. Kyle starts all yr then gets benched one game in.

Unsure how much bball or team sports youve played during your life. But youre oversimplifying chemistry.
Just bc its "this late in the year" and "they've played many minutes together" already, doesnt mean they must have optimal chemistry to beat all 32 teams.
Look, no ones saying we need a talent upgrade. Im just saying, chemistry aint there either.

Re: Useless players in the playoffs
I didn't think it was a good idea to bench Kyle. They needed him to advance or to win a game. They weren't going to win without him or with him playing poorly. It's the same for many other guys the team relied on all season. I know you dislike him so that is that. But Rudy has been as fine as you could expect so can't blame Kyle for any perceived faults you see in Rudy.
