Kawhi is not a system player - Durant

[exstatic]

The funniest part is there are no tweets or rebuttals from Kawhi. Just a bunch of reporters asking if KD has had enough crow to eat

Not a huge surprise. He's only ever dropped 4 tweets, and none since JULY...

[Canyonero]

He's ready for the D

[loveforthegame]

This article has the original tweets before they were deleted, his FB apology, and clips of what he's saying now.

I'd welcome him with open arms if he wanted to come play in SA. Snowball's chance in , but if he ever wanted to come you do what you have to (short of moving Kawhi and LMA - the latter because you don't treat your recently signed FA that way), and ask questions later.

There's a good chance that the degree of beat down they get from the Spurs dictates his FA this summer. If it's a long series or they win, he stays. 5 games or sweep and he bolts. Though he'd be leaving money on the table by not waiting a year till everyone including the Spurs has max space.

Even that year he was salty as as said that , ESPN or some s did a study and showed that Durant was more of "system" player.

[SupremeGuy]

Seriously though, what is it with Spurstalk and former all stars? Every time a player and the Spurs get linked, ST rejects the guy if he's a former all star. It's weird.

I'm sorry but Kostas Galfinoklauschitz the European late second round prospect isn't going to replace the Big 3. Things evolve, leave that "built not bought" behind.

What the are you talking about, fat boy? You look like chumlee, that ain't my fault. If you weren't a virgin and actually had a daughter, Kawhi would ignore her ugly ass mug.

Also, quit wearing sweaters in the summer, love handles

You know what? Two years ago I felt Durant was the better player on a weaker team, now I can say Leonard is the better player despite being on a better team, while Durant is no longer the best player on his own team.

Truth be told, Durant and Co. blew the finals while Kawhi made sure his team won it.

awesome eat those words KD. Yummy huh?

[dweaver99027]

What Durant said less than two years ago( the fact that he said 'three years ago' is telling of his being frustrated with the incident being mentioned) was that Kawhi was not better than Paul george because Kawhi was made to look better than he actually was due to the Spurs' system aiding him more than the average team system would. He never said 'system player'. He said he thought PG was better, which was a legitimate opinion 2 years ago. Gotta love the media. Tell you what, next time you hear a prominent figure, whether that be a basketball player or the aspiring President giving canned responses to burning questions, don't blame said figure. Blame the media twisting everything to give people what they think they want to hear.

haha durant learning too fast

[Lostwingman]

Kawhi's is his conference rival, what do you people expect him to say?

I expect him to be a bit more honest about the things he's said.

Durant has faded into oblivion, its actually kinda crazy. He and Paul George were like two most talked about behind Lebron James, both have dropped off the face of the earth.

Agreed. Pg and durant are still very good but I think with the way curry is playing and everyone jumping in the warriors bandwagon, they have just been forgotten.

Also, KD and PG wanted to take LBJ crown on SFs but they didn't expect Kawhi's emergence...And now people start to realize that a great and super-efficient two way player like Kawhi can be better than KD playing just one end of the court.

How can you say this when Kawhi blew the 2013 finals? Durant was great in the finals, Westbrook and harden didn't show up.

He was the best player for the Spurs got.

Revived the franchise.

1 missed free throw isn't when your star player missing 20+ shots a game.

When it was winning time, this guy stepped. Too bad he had no help.
