Kawhi At Work

He didn't play like this outside of the rebounding in college. In college he would just overpower everyone.

The thing about Kawhi is that he's imrpoved so much and so dramatically through the season that its hard to know where his ceiling is. If he somehow added a mid range game, watch out.

I try not to buy into the hype of a guy who's the 4th or 5th option most times on the court but he definitely has the makings of a player who can put you over the top while being a role player (ala Robert Horry etc etc).

I'm still not sold that he's ever going to be a "star" but I think he'll always be a player that people want on their team.

Remember, this would be his sop re year in college. With his athleticism (and work ethic), his offensive game has as much room to grow as his defense. He could potentially improve his penetration, his passing, his midrange game... become a pretty complete offensive player. Combine that with the defense and the rebounding, and his ceiling could easily be an All-Star and a #2 or #3 player on a le team.

As always, you never know whether guys will reach that ceiling or not, but my gut feel is that he's a piece we can continue to build around after our current stars start retiring.

10/20 from 3 in the playoffs?

3/19/11 realgm scouting report re draft prospect Kawhi:

"Players with saucer hands traditionally have not been outstanding perimeter shooters (Julius Erving, Chris Webber, Shaquille O’Neal, Rajon Rondo), the theory being that it’s akin to a normal person trying to shoot a ping-pong ball. The ball can roll out of the hand’s shooting pocket too easily, something Leonard admits happening to him at times."

3 pointer follow by conventional 3 pt play moments later were the biggest plays of the game.

57-47 to 57-56 in a blink.
