i never said this. i never onced mentioned Sean Elliott in regards to Kawhi so enough with your erroneous crap
...enough said. ceiling =/= career average. shove your reading comprehension where the sun don't shine

tbh, it is not Kawhi's fault that he's the 4th option on the team. Manu is pretty much done so I expect Kawhi to be the 3rd or 2nd option for the next two years until Duncan retires unless Pop continues to trust Manu as the 3rd option which wouldn't surprise me at all given the stubborn man that he's become. Next year will indicative of how good Kawhi will be assuming that Pop replaces Kawhi with Manu as the newest member of the "Big 3."
So to sum up, we have majority=plurality and peak=average. Glorious.
I honestly don't think the Shawn Marion comparison isn't too far off at this point and time, but unlike Marion he has the advantage of playing under the tutelage of our staff and players.
He definitely needs to get better with his handles and creating his own shot. If he can successfully do improve on that area of his game there's nothing he won't be able to do on the court.
what was that quote of pop's? Something like he's a baby barely learning to walk or something or another.
my only legit concern is that this focus on him now after a good post season doesn't toy with his confidence and hamper his progression. He doesn't strike me as someone who savers the mantle of being labeled the guy who's going to lead the most successful franchise of the past 15 yrs to continued glory, post Duncan
To play devil's advocate....Leonard still hasnt averaged 12-14 points/gm...youre just assuming he does. You hope he gets better. I said that would be his career average and you wanted to get techinical so techinally he hasnt averaged 12-14 yet. And whats up with your fixation about shoving things where the sun doesnt shine?
if you are going to cal Elliott's 5.6 rebounds and 6 then i will call Kawhi's 11.9 as 12
I already called Leonards 11.9...12 earlier...check my post.
and 12 doesn't qualify as 12-14? i have no clue where you're going with this
Look you can either say "ok I guess I undershot his projected ceiling" or you can try to convince me that Leonard has already peaked. go.
His ceiling is Andre Iguodala, IMO.
18ppg 8rpg 2stlpg 2blpg 2apg
20/10 guy easily.
Have to change it from the Big3 to the Big4.
Really believe he'll be the next face of this franchise.. He's a workhorse kind of guy, will put in the time to get the stats and numbers but quietly.
Pretty good comparison, though I think Leonard is already on his way to being a more consistent scorer than this guy.
Bump
Interesting...
And there are idiots here that think you hate Parker..

I remeber making a rant thread when tony missed out on first team a few years ago because of kirby.
Kl would be great of he had better shot selection and could take over the game in the clutch. He's got that lebron thing where he's afraid to drive in the 4th and takes jumpers. Be like tim, be boring, predictable and methodical.
I certainly don't mind saying that Kawhi has blown past my expectations. That he is one of the best three-point shooters in the league is insane. We could find out he grew four inches during next summer, and I wouldn't be all that surprised.
