Kid you were great that ring is coming WITH YOUR 6 POINTS YOU ARE A SCRUB! GTFO!
Kawhi is honestly the only aspect of this game that angers me (tbh..)
Not only did he make a bonehead 2nd foul to take himself out of the game, he played like a passive punk for most of the game. Then he tried to be aggressive when it didn't even matter.
Kawhi is the single player on this team that should be a matchup nightmare for the Mavericks.
I thought it was kinda weird for him to guard Ellis, but after the last regular season game, there's no doubt in my mind he can do it.
He (along with the entire team, really) were out of position and closing out too closely seemingly ever play.
If you're Pop, what do you say to Kawhi to get him to go into Beast Finals Mode?

Kawhi's game grade is seriously an F-
He may have set his career back 2 years with that crap.
He is someone who plays better when in the shadow. He has been put in the spotlight recently and still has to learn to play under defensive pressure.
Last year in the final in 6&7 Miami didn't really try to stop him, just like Spurs let Harrison Barnes kill them, Miami choose to shut down Parker/Green/Manu instead. The mavs are defending every Spurs player with respect, don't expect him to go big on the Mavs like he did against Miami.
The Mavs haven't made any adjustments against Leonard, the only Spurs player they've thoroughly strategized against has been Parker..
That's all it takes to throw everything into disarray. Spurs are very 1 dimensional
I agree, I was just arguing against that poster's point..
the spurs can't be scared to go inside out... i don't care how old duncan is tbh
It sure would help if a big other than Timmy would show up, tbh.
First they would have to get bigs
it sure would help if timmy showed up
Looking towards the future, I sure hope we draft a PF in this years draft.
Timmy showed up Sundy.
They'd end up drafting some guy who has the upside of Ayres.
and we won sunday. he didn't show up today, and we got killed. shocking discrepancy
Pop won't say nothing, just let Boylen do the job..."Ka-what? Who's?"
It means Monta Ellis?...
Kawhi fears Monta, kept picking up his dribble way too soon.
Perhaps there's a shocking correlation in the fact that Parker didn't suck Sundy and we won. Would be nice if the big 3 could get a little help from the others for once.
He's not sure whether to attack or pass the ball. You can see he doesn't decide that until he's already into the teeth of the defense. He's being told he's an offensive threat and needs to act like it, but then he's indoctrinated with the "system" and "big 3" talk and there could be a timing issue, not knowing when to do what. That's on Pop. That's what happens when you don't run a play for the guy in 2 years then suddenly expect him to deliver. He'll bounce back, everyone has a bad night, but the bigger picture with him is where is place is in the offense. He needs to go out there and fail a few times to understand his limitations and give him things to work on. He's been given tons of accolades and boosted past his ability to justify it, but he's got potential and I think he'll get there.
hopefully parker's wife gives birth during game 3![]()
Are they expecting a boy? Please name him Enrique.
Yup, Carlisle did a little thing called making an adjustment.. Marion on Parker while packing the paint while our two bigs can't step out and hit crud consistently is our undoing. They switch Marion onto Parker when the pick is set and they dig into the paint.. = we're ed, no penetration and no kick.
Pop needs to stop sipping wine and look into making an adjustment to attack the switch.
Seems like bigger defenders have their way with Enrique Porker.
