Re recruiting Kawhi to LA![]()
Was asked who was the toughest at guarding him...he said none other than the two guys on the Spurs. Danny and Kawhi. He said Damny doesn't get enough credit as a defender. Also said he thinks Kawhi is the best perimeter defender in the league. It's no news to us, but it's cool to see that kind of recognition from other players around the league especially a shooter like Re .

"You trippin' bro. Kawhi sucks"
KD will be 'tripping' a lot these days too with his bad foot.
karma. For years, he's fooled people into thinking he's a classy dude but we know very well what a big piece of he really is.
I don't ever want to lose this combo, just a devastating 1-2 punch for any team in the NBA, they're just gonna keep getting better, makes it sooo easy to build your defense around.
Most underrated duo in the league.
Hype Bros
Spurs been getting a lot of love in the media lately, tbh..
Baron Davis was on Bill Simmons' podcast the other day and said Tim is one of the 5 greatest of all-time..
Be prepared for disappointment this summer. I could be surprised like I was with the below-market deal for Patty last year, but I think Danny is gonna get seriously PAID by someone else...maybe the Knicks.
If he's offered some serious change, he should take it. However, don't expect him to have the kind of success he's having here unless he ends up on a team like the Hawks.
@ the thought of Belinelli taking Danny's starting spot next year if DG bolts
What about Diaw taking Duncan's?![]()
Honestly it will be hard to root for a team with an Enrique/Scrubeli backcourt.
Or the other 20 teams in the NBA that can create shots for role players![]()
Yeah, Green has earned a serious payday for sure. I'm hoping the Spurs will be able to keep him at about $8 or $9 million a year, but that may be too optimistic. Crazy that he's only making $4 million this year. Still, I have heard him say he really doesn't want to leave since this is the place he has found success.
Again with this ty take. Stop overrating Pop's system, tbh.
Pop's ty system that won a le without a top 15 player?
I'm not saying his system is overrated or sucks. Just the myth that he turns scrubs into rotation players. Mostly, when it comes to Danny.
Uh this is one of those things that's both true and untrue. Very few teams can generate the open shots that the spurs did fit the past two years; this includes the current spurs too.
That doesn't mean he won't be good....it just means there is slight downside risk in moving teams.
But success for an nba guy is getting paid and getting played. If green has as many minutes, and retains his le as elite defender he absolutely should go for max money.
I say spurs sign him, and then look to trade if this team sees a major drop off next year. At some point we will tank. But I think we give the kawhi green splitter Parker team a limited chance to maintain the playoff streak.
Now there is nothing worse than being a perennial first round exit. Danny won't help us if we're stuck in non lottery limbo. Hence, keeping him tradable to a contender who can spare picks and young Talent
You really are a ty poster.![]()
I see your point. Again, I'm not trying to downplay Pop's system at all. I just think Danny deserves more credit. I honestly think he would do fine on most playoff teams. He cant dribble or create much, but he wouldn't have to anyways. He's the perfect 3 and D guy.
He is right tbh
Turned a scrub like Gary Neal into a rotation player while here.....Seriously, I don't understand why Pop doesn't get the credit he deserves here when his motion offense has taken marginal players like Neal and Green and turned them into viable NBA players. People forget that Green bounced around the league because he wasn't very good. Let's not make Green and make him Ray Allen
....he was smart enough to learn how to dance within the flow of the offense and used his one offensive skill and learned to shoot.... do you think he would seriously be as effective as he is here if he played for the magic?
