And please wait until the Playoffs before starting stupid threads like this. Kawhi just dominating a POS scrub Cavs team. Manu is coasting until the Playoffs. Jesus Christ. The Playoffs are the only games that really matter.

lol coasting till the playoffs. That's what people said about Timmy in 2011...
And I'm not hating on Manu, but Kawhi is significantly better in every category other than passing and intangibles at this point.
Manu may come back next year after a summer off and shut us all up, but as for now he's definitely showing the wear from playing over a year non-stop.
The CoK versus CoM battle shall be an epic that our grandchildren will tell to their children.
My heart is aching every time they say something bad about Manu being this, being that...I simply don't care if Manu plays or not; just seeing him with the Spurs already gives me happiness...can't you see there's still a lot of number "20" in the stands...c'mon instead of bashing about his game and making hurtful comments might as well appreciate his presence on the team...Tim and Manu are the future coaches for the SPURS...TIM, TONY, and MANU...cased closed! LOL
Kawhi has intangibles
won plenty of late games with his defense
his offense rebounding was key tonight
his steal for Durant in the season opener
had a game vs Philly where he was getting late game steals as well
and its not really Ginobilis fault hes playing so bad
Popovich doesnt force the ball to Duncan every play
since he knows that just doesnt work minus tonight
he has people set him up for midrange shots now
Ginobili needs to be set up instead of forcing it on pick and rolls everytime
Not yet, he is getting alot better at things but he has not surpassed Manu yet. Manu is older now and not as good I know we all see it! To hate on him though and call him names is just pathetic IMO. Show some respect to the Spurs legend.
Spurstalk really doesn't work that way...And for the record, I don't think so. Kawhi has been good but posters are going crazy over his potential right now.
No need for the interrogation point tbh
As far as current effectiveness on the floor in terms of offensive production and defense? Yes. As far as in-situ IQ in crucial moments of the game? no.
Manu shouldnt be compared to other players because with Manu its about finding that magic zone. When he's out of the magic zone he makes horrendous plays but when he's in the zone he's like Bird and Jordan all rolled together.
Manu is on a slump, but will get better. Has Kawhi surpassed him? No. Manu still has a lot of ways to win ballgames. Kawhi is athletic but yet to learn how to use all his abilities. I still give the ball to Manu on last possession with the game tied knowing he could drive it to the hole, fake and step-back for a three, draw a foul, whatever nobody knows. And while TP is now the general, Timmy the anchor, Manu is the heart and soul of the Spurs. Kawhi will get his turn.
Kawhi started off 4-12 today... went on to finish 8-16![]()
Has an interesting ring if you say it phonetically.
I'm not sure it's a bad thing. We'll have come out with 62 essentially meaningless wins and a hopefully healthy Kawhi. I hope he becomes our franchise player and we surround him with enough talent that we never have to play him more than 35 mins on the average. That'll mean less games on his body in 10 years when the mileage really starts to add up.
Kawhi trying to mimic timmy
24, 13, 4, and 2
Prime Shawn Marion type game.
See the right with the stairs adn the cross! That tells me there is still a chance!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Can this be merged with the "Kawhi is the 3rd best player" thread. Its really the same argument.
I reserve judgment until Tony comes back. When everyone is back to their normal roles, that's when Manu AND Kawhi will be at their best...on both sides of the court.
Cal me when Kwame delivers when it matters... I´ve seen other players been "phenomenal" during the regular season but slowly fade away in the playoffs.
I will assume that many here are just not thinking basketball wise what you post.
We all know that the true test is the playoffs, it took parker almost 5 years to translate his regular season game to the postseason, we are yet to know how long it will take to Leonard.
Ginobili is still the safest bet when you are going to war.
Not yet. Shouldn't we wait till Tony comes back and we play in the playoffs to make such assessment? No doubt is Kwahi stepping up but to jump to this conclusion is quite the over-reaction tbh.
Troll question IMO...
Of course he didn't, this is ONLY regular season...
NOTHING replaces experience and poise during the PO!!
Manu still hasn't find his rythm, physicaly and mentaly, he is out of synch and looks like he's taking time (as we do) to accept the fact that he can't play the superhero anymore (quick 3s...).
I have no doubt he'll be ready for the PO and will shut a lot of mouthes...
Can't believe what I'm reading from.... Spurs/Manu fans!!!!
Shame on you guys...
Y'all forgetting the kid shot .500 from the field and .450 from 3 in his first ever playoff run and was one of 6 players Pop trusted on the floor when things unraveled in the WCF right?
