here we go yet another useless thread
For his PnR defense performance?
Damn s hating on Danny and Kawhi..
What can a perimeter defender do when the bigs are slow footed on a PnR?
Danny and Kawhi was basically guarding two players everytime Paul run the PnR..It was brutal watching.
here we go yet another useless thread
starting a new thread about this because Harlem brought it up in another thread....sad tbh.
I like the way this thread is going already...
Danny sucked as much as Porks, Tiago & Pop, TD is not getting blame because he is 73 years old and gave his all.
TD was the best player in the series though.
Maybe that's why he isn't getting the blame....
That 39yr old guy you say is a stat padder outplayed Matrixhe mad
Austin Rivers outplayed Rique![]()
Duncan deserves literally 0 blame for his performance, because realistically if you are expecting him to anchor an elite defense both in the interior and through pick n roll (which he pretty much had to do considering tiago, danny, and kawhi struggles) and be your best offensive player, you've already lost. Tim outplayed any expectations we as fans or the organization could have realistically had of him this series, and the team let him down honestly.
I feel like Danny realizes that more than anyone, and has spoken on it
How can you complain about a 39 year old Pro with a storied career that gave his all? The players let him down. Surely this must be trolling.
Gameplanned trolling tbh.
He's nearly 40 years old and was our best player through out the whole entire series. If Duncan didn't bring it like he did in this series the Spurs probably lose in 5 games. Unlike Kawhi he didn't disappear in game 7.
Please name all players in todays NBA who can defend the post, protect the rim and also effectively guard smalls on pick and rolls? Regardless of age.
Please.
Exactly, he can't do everything out there, especially at his age. Overall Parker, Ginobili, Green, and Splitter had a bad series. Kawhi, Diaw, and Belinelli had a decent series. And Duncan and Mills had a good series. (all respective to what we've come to expect from everyone).
Basically when you have 4 core players play really bad, you're going to lose a series (especially against a really talented team). The bottom line is that nobody played well enough to pick up the slack of those 4 guys.
so you want 39 year old Timmy to be our best offensive player, lock down the paint, box out Jordan, AND shut down the pnr?
Did HH put you up to this...again?
If not, then gtfo
Nothing surprising is being exposed here, every semi knowledgeable Spurs fan understands TD's deficiencies in PnR defense. It's just how it at this stage.
This is like complaining about Danny Green's series because he didn't make enough plays for others or complaining about Marco's series because he didn't block enough shots![]()
Blame anyone but TD. that .
