Even 20 shots a game for any single Spurs cog is way too much. What the is Pop thinking tbqh.
Plus how the we gonna get LMAlpha into our system if someone is chucking after shot. And midrange s that is. Not even layups or dunks. Smh
Lets hope this was an aberration because we have no chance in doing this .
LMA couldn't do against Ibaka. No point in giving him more looks.
I have no problem with Leonard taking 22 shots if he hits 59% of them like he did tonight.
So it seemed. But unless we can get LMAlpha out his funk we might as well tank the season.
And we are not getting him out of his funk by having a guy shoot all game imo
Kills the team system. I have no problem if this was not the spurs and we won the game.
Even in other teams 22 shots in a loss is bad business.
OP thinks we're going to get destroyed by the Grizz this season
Meanwhile

We will if we have guys shooting 20+ shots a game.
Cavs are the best team in the league that Grizz loss means nothing.
What are you talking about. LMA was schooling Ibaka. LMA just missed like 5 shots within 5 feet of the basket. Spurs in total missed A LOT of LAYUPS. Kawhi missed two easy layups. Parker missed one. West missed two. It really came down that OKC shots fell the Spurs didn't. There was a time in the 3rd quarter they missed 3 straight layups that just rimmed out.
If you guys are going to continue with this copycat anti-Kawhi shtick, you need to stop referring to Aldridge as an alpha, tbh..he's far from it..

huh, in the past 4 seasons, Tony parker has done that 31 times (high of 29), tim duncan 14 times, mills 4 times, blair, neal, green, manu, leonard, blair and diaw once. And yet I dont recall any concern from Hater, puzzling.
I thought the system was to give the ball to the person who has the hot hand. We were shooting well and being agressive,
I have no problem with taking that many shots. And this was not a reason we lost the game IMO.

All on the piss poor rebounding by the bench tbh. No Boban = no le /
silly thread
the number of FGA is never an issue in any system... what matters is the quality of the attempts. Kawhi took mostly good shots all night long, he chose wisely his iso actions, made KD work which is key... nothing to complain about Kawhi overall shot selection...
cherry on the cake he dialed 59% of them... it's all good
Loved his aggressiveness. Looked like a bulldozer out there, even against bigger foes. Gonna be a joy to watch Muscles Leonard wreak havoc on Bosh-sized bigs.
Kawhi's aggressiveness on Offense is gonna be key for this team, he cannot go back at being a spot up shooter in this system. Pop will surely push him to be aggressive every game, he has to ask for the ball, drive, move, shoot, post up... I'd be totally fine with 18-20 FGAs per game.
Team just need to be careful to give LMA his share in Offense too.
These two need to be aggressive for Spurs to succeed
Spurs lost this game at the FT line and because of poor rebounding. They were out-rebounded 36-45 and out-scored by 10 pts from the line. Simple as that. Westbrook blew past everyone guarding him too. My thoughts? We kill them at home because our bench will play much better. Their bench (Waiters hit clutch shots and Morrow nailed big 3's) was a big difference too.
Spurs will get past OKC without any problems. I guarantee you KD doesn't want to see Leonard ever again.
Parker won 27 out of those 33 games. Also he averaged about 8 assists per game in that clip. Sure Parker was shooting a lot but he was also getting his team involved in a HUGE way.
That is much better than being 0-1 with ZERO assists. Come on now it's not even close. not to mention most of Parker's shots were in the paint. not long 2 pt chucks. not to mention we had not Lamarcus Alpharidge back then. come on now.
It looked like LMA didn't really want to "get in the way" so to speak. First game jitters. I'm sure next few games we'll see a more confident, aggressive LMA. Kawhi needs that sidekick.
22 shots and zero assists won't cut it. we all know this. let's try to face the facts
I'm glad Kawhi sees this. I hope Pop sees this too and instructs the young man into a better strategy![]()
That's not the norm though. He usually owns Serge but we weren't doing a good job of getting him the ball in his "spots". That needs to change real quick.
Pretty sure we get blown out if Kawhi didn't play like that last night.
