Was that an airball at the end there?![]()
Parker-LMAlpha has been beasting and feasting, Kawhi not so much. Good call by Pop![]()
got is ing weird bruh![]()
Parker hero ball froze him out. By the 4th he was ice cold
Kawhi didn't just have an off night.. He MADE himself have an off night. He passed up too many shots. Was hesitant in almost everything he did on the offensive end. I would have preferred him to have an off night of going 6-20 rather than 6-14. He has to gain confidence and just let the ball fly. It disgusts me how much he pump fakes with no intention to shoot only to drive and dish. I'm one of his biggest fans but this lack of confidence is sickening. He puts in all of that work and doesn't seem to trust in it..
You mean like a small cleft, slit, or fissure that provides a weak spot that may leave one vulnerable.
As should the rest of the ing team
No. Kawhi froze himself out.
Parker's ball hogging tbh
Jealous of Leonard![]()
Vardy > Harry Kane > Rooney > Mahrez
So predicable and ultra-vanilla that the usual suspects are finding a way to blame Parker.
Boris, Danny, and Patty House really are untouchable
I wonder what it will take for the Krew to call their inconsistent asses out?
Kawhi wasn't getting touches, shooting or scoring early in the game and when he did get ball he seemed to be forcing the issue. It seems he tuned out early and for the rest of the game he let it affect his defense and overall game.
Carver carving Draymond's name into the DPOY award as we speak
A good call would be mix it, Parker/LMA two-man game AND Kawhi plays.
Getting Kawhi less FGA's isn't that good for the offense, we can see he went cold in the last games when most possessions were Parker/LMA P&Rs/Pops and he didn't shoot...
If he would have played more minutes in the first half to get some rhythm and more involved on offense in the 4th, it could have changed this game.
Also, I can't see it's a good sign that Parker doesn't pass to him when Kawhi he asks for the ball. The same with Manu.
First Kawhi's 3 attempt against GSW was a desperation shot...Kawhi was in a good position and asked Parker the ball but Parker wanted to play a pick w/LMA, he tried, he couldn't find LMA and then threw a pass to Kawhi w/nothing on the clock.
In the same game, Kawhi had the ball in his hands to close the 1st quarter but Manu asked him the ball to pass to Tim and Manu lost the ball.
Tonight, he asked Parker the ball a lot in the 2nd half. Three possesions that I remember, in one Parker looked for his own shot and missed, in other he played with LMA, and the last just passed to Danny.
If Kawhi's vocal and wants the ball, just give him the ball. I rather Kawhi trying to stay aggressive instead of Danny/Manu missing shots.
Honestly, I don't like it when Parker ignores Kawhi's call for a pass, but it must be ok with Pop because he lets him do it all the time lol Weird really. Maybe Tony is like Green and has a fragile ego so Pop wants to keep him happy. Whatever it is, it's not going to change over the next two months, so no use complaining about it.
Also, Kawhi shoots a lot more and even drives more with Patty on the court than Parker.
That means I want to bench Parker? No. I just want Pop plays Kawhi more with Patty in the last minutes of the 1st quarter instead of sitting him remaining 3 minutes like he was doing in the last games. And more in the 4th with him too.
The only time in five years I saw Pop said something about it was in the game against OKC, he called Parker out for not giving the ball to Kawhi.
But agree, Pop would destroy Parker's ego if he does it more often, sometimes he has sat Parker instead of said something in public.
But this won't help Kawhi nor the team.
Look at the bright side, we're only stuck with Parker two more years
Hopefully we have a replacement by his last year and he can come off the bench(Kemba will be FA summer 2017 I think)...
This is so funny coming from you...
Leonard is the perfect defender. He might have been created in a CalTech lab; we're going to need to see some baby pictures to be sure. Kawhi has not just the incredible physical attributes -- the length, the hands, the quickness, the strength -- but his brain is locked in to every rotation every possession. I counted one missed or late rotation in 39 minutes, and it led to a Green dunk -- crucially, not a three.
Traps present a defensive risk. By double-teaming the ball out on the perimeter, you're leaving three defenders to deal with four potential scorers and a lot of daylight. It's an especially perilous gambit against the Warriors, who thrive on chaos, have good passers everywhere and have a green light to shoot from deep. Yet Kawhi's special gifts, awareness and endurance allow him to recover from those traps and get back into the play within two passes or a pass and a dribble. At one point deep in the fourth, Kawhi helped trap Curry all the way out near midcourt and still recovered to get into the play.
