Guess you missed the memo that he wants to play and Pop is saying no.

[hooperflash]

YES!!!

Does this tickle your fancy?

Tirico just said that Kawhi's return all depends on pain tolerance. The "Kawhi is telling his peers he wants to play vs OKC" rumor is BS

[loveforthegame]

Sorry. I don't care what Tirico says. Pop is saying Leonard can't use his hand while Leonard is saying he can play.

We know how Pop is when it comes to sitting players. But you equate it to Leonard being a pussy. Makes sense.

[Chomag]

ya! Ok... question is when Pop is going to actually let him play.

Don't expect Patty to fix all this team's problems.

He's still not a great defender. I was very disappointed that he couldn't start the season on time as I thought these games were a good chance for him to keep working on his defense and try and improve a bit more in that area.

Damn I was expecting Patty to be our defensive stopper too tbh

[ElNono]

Patty isn't a defensive stopper, but he would have to suck a lot to be worse defensively than our starting PG ATM, tbh

tbh, that did sound kinda harsh. I'm rooting for Tony, I want him to be his usual dominating self. The Spurs sure could use that.

He's never going to be a great defender, just like how Joseph will never be the offensive player Patty is. Patty is desperately needed right now for scoring and taking the load off of Manu/Parker.

Possibly could help with what you mentioned, but the Spurs right now are getting their asses lit up by opposing PGs. I was just pointing out that that is a current weakness of this team and that he's not going to help much in that area.

When I found out that Patty would be out, that's the first thing I thought of, his defense and his personal growth/development is going to be set back. I was very disappointed for him.

I was looking forward to him using this time and early part of the season to keep improving his defense. He really did make some decent strides on that end of the court last season, was very pleased with the effort he put in to try and be a better defender. It would have been great for him to keep learning the players in the NBA and how to defend them. He was only going to get that by playing against them with more court time.

It's a Christmas miracle IMO

Parker should sit for a month once he's back.

I think Patty is actually a pesky defender. He drew some timely charges against Miami in the Finals. His speed alone makes him a threat. He's never going to be a traditional, lock down defender but he'll have his moments.

Green will always get the duty of guarding PGs.
