Shots Fired? Is Dejounte Murray referencing KAWHI?

If you really think about it, you barely name another player in the league that talks as much as he does with his current level. I see that as a good thing. Why? Because he has extreme confidence in himself. Combine that with him buying in to the great Spurs development process and it’s almost a sure bet to see great results. Just wait and see.

I am extremely glad that Dejounte is confident in his abilities, but he has not proven anything at this point. Yes, 2nd team defense is great but he is a 6'5 point guard with a 6'10 wingspan, he has physical gifts he should be able to defend guards with ease.
He cant take a shot at anybody and their play or effort until he has taken his game to the next level. Otherwise he is simply a critic like a backseat driver or monday morning quarterback. Especially when he has so many flaws still. I love he wants to be vocal, but leadership is not necessarily criticism(adversaries or teammates).
The next level is not just scoring, its game recognition(basketball IQ-film study), its being a coach on the floor and making plays, and getting guys in position to make their own play. I truly look forward to see him play with no clear challenger on the roster. (tony parker not D.White or Mills.) Will he rise or be a comfortable without Parker over his shoulder.

Because the Spurs don't fucking tank like other teams that's why.

Delonte is at the Lakers training facility right now (just posted it on his IG moment) lol

Kawhi is probably teaching him how to flourish in this ISOball system tbh
