    Thoughts:

    -Parker gave some positive light on the 1st half, was off to a great start but regressed back in the 2nd half with a few dribble dribble signature moves

    -Kawhi's shot is broken, still got 19 but it was an ugly 19. I wonder what his offense was like against NOP? I havent watched that game

    -Manu again bailing us out but the 4th qtr he looked gassed. Coming from a rest day this seems concerning.

    -KA played nice. But I think we should be rolling with butler this season.

    -West seems to be fitting in. Aside from missed fts and all.

    -Green has added attacking to his arsenal but Im not sure if this is better in the long run. We need his 3s more than ever.

    All in all, we should have won by more considering grizz only had 1 3 pt fg. Very concerning to play this kind of pace against gsw. Theyll destroy us.

    always ugly against the Grizz.... lots of physicality... Kawhi just couldn't hit anything until the very end... if he can get his shot to fall at 40% we win by 20

    Kawhi is folding under the pressure of s om. You can see it in his eyes. He's like a deer in the headlights.

    Kawhi didn't play well but I don't think his shot is broken.

    I wish they'd get Leonard in the post. Especially more of that instead of looking for the ally oop. He's been so much better out of the double teams this season. That would open up the rest of his game again.

    nah, he's too young... he can only get better, which is scary for the rest of the NBA, tbh

    He needs his shot to fall more often, otherwise, he's just the marginal maybe all-star again this year and might not even make the team come all-star break if this regression on offense continues. His handles and passing are too weak for his shot to leave him as well.

    Not a fan of Kiwi shot selection, but you look at LMA, and he's made a career of that... most teams really take those ty shots... I still think he can get "smarter" about it...

    It's a process, he's now seeing double teams at times, and he has to learn to process all that...

    - I like what I've seen from him this season so far,but he needs to play like he did in the first half,get other involved and attack the rim,when he does he makes everybody so much better

    - I'm not particulary concerned about it,his shot selection wasn't poor,he was just cold today

    - I don't think he was gassed,the only real mistake was that layup he blew,but I believe he rushed it because the shot clock was expiring...plus it's true that when you get 5 days off you're getting rest,but in a league like the NBA you also have to kinda re-gain your rhythm

    - Mmh I don't know,Kyle needs to play if we want him to improve

    - Yeah West's playing better everyday,he can hit jumpers and is a great passer,so he's a great fit for our system

    - Green has to stick to 3s,that's what we need and he's not good enough dribbling the ball,even if he had a few nice layups today

    Theyre making a kawhi a spot up shooter. His main strength if youve been following him is not the 3 theyve completely went away from him I cant remember if he even had one post up play for the game, which is clearly his main strength aside from his steal dunk special.

    But does he have the physical gifts and fundamentals to at least approach the offensive dominance of players such as Kobe, TMAC or Carter in their primes? That's the real question - if he can add dominant scoring and fine tune his offensive game he can go down as one of the greats but that still remains largely to be seen.

    My problem is they made him either a spot up shooter or a player who they passed to with seconds left in the shotclock. Of course hes gonna shot an inefficient shot. As I said, i dont remember if they even called a single post up for him the whole game.

    Kawhi has career highs in both 3P% and FT%...I think his shot is fine He just had an off night.

    None of those guys except young Kobe played defense the way he does... that said, this is the first season where he's been put out there as an integral option on offense. So let's wait a season or two before declaring success/demise, IMO.

    He was 9-20 which isn't too bad. He chucked a bit last night though. I think he just missed tonight the shots he's been making all season long.

    Not sure you have been following him. His 3-pt percentage leads the team - over 40%. It is possible Pop has him looking for the 3-ball more because Danny is not revising that threat at the moment.
