Was this Kawhi's first game winning shot with the Spurs?

I think he is officially christened a Spur.

Ever? No. In Preseason he's hit one. But regular season, yes.

Pop: since you won the game, you can skip out on media.
That's how Pop probably motivates Kawhi.

Hilarious!!

Kawhi has hit lots of big shots and make lots of clutch defensive plays since hes been a Spur
he made the basically gamewinning steal vs Durant in the season opener that led to Parkers shot
also had games like Philly where he gets a steal and breakaway dunk then the corner 3 to tie it
i think it was game 5 vs okc also where he hit 2 corner 3s with under a minute to go and gets a steal on thabo during the inbound

rather have Leonard shoot clutch shots over Jackson at this point tbh

It could be by design or just a result of injuries, but Kawhi's shot attempts have increased lately (11.5 in Feb). I wouldn't be upset if he avg around 15-18 attempts the rest of the season, including the playoffs.

lol at 15-18
Parker averages 15 a game
Leonard at 11-12 is good though
Manu has never shot over 13 shots a game in his career
