They also need a top PG imo
Kawhi can't guard a top 5 wing scorer of all time then be the focal point of the offense. Not even Jordan had to guard monsters like Durant and Westbrook for a whole series
They also need a top PG imo
I thought that's why they have Green.
Still gonna make Kawhi guard the other star he isn't on.
Spurs need a perimeter slasher and scorer.
That perimeter defender probably needs t o play the PG spot
We had PG, but then we traded him for Kawhi
Def would boost the spurs. Not sure if its as important as a rollman or slasher though. Maybe we can get both.![]()
Wes Johnson is the best perimeter defender on the market and won't cost a lot.
Wouldn't mind him as a cheap acquistion.
Kawhi/Danny are fine defensively. We just need a non liability at the PG spot.
: Cojo
On the soon to be washed up ToSb lists no.
+ 1 that perimeter defender needs to be a PG so he can play with the SL, which is where Kawhi has the need.
.....great posts SAGirl.....a quicker, younger PG could also help transition the Spurs away from playing hero ball with LA and Kawhi
KL/Green certainly not enough. Another one, preferably 2 (one of them a PG) would help.
Spurs need a backup SF.
I see Rondo poking his ugly mug out there.....should POP just look away?
Hero ball sucks and needs to go away.
Intelligent player, vet, good defender and an athlete. If they wanted to run a faster paced system hed be nice but... if they want to continue with I so heavy offense then no, bc he doesn't space the floor and is less reliable than Tony scoring/shooting plus hack a rondo? He only has a system he can thrice in and that requires shooters around him and him with the ball or we have ourselves Mavs-Rockets 2015 part deux.
A perimeter defender that can handle the ball better than Danny would be nice. It would allow for more SL flexibility when needed. Better than having to rely on a slow Kyle Anderson or old Manu.
Wtf am I reading? Rondo a good defender and inteliggent player![]()
I would prefer a player who takes some of the scoring load from Kawhi. Leonard is the best defender in the league so why would you want him to not play against the opponentst best guy? I'd love to continue seeing him play 100% D every game and not having to put up 25points per game. 20ppg and ~16 from a scoring PG would be great IMO.
He's a good defender when he wants to be. Has the physical tools to do so but hasn't had the desire recently. He is a smart player, just he's ball dominant and his game is limited bc he can't shoot.
Because it would allow him to play the 4 or even a 5 in a small ball lineup without having to worry about a defensive mismatch. For example the Warriors, the Spurs could put Danny + other perimeter defender on Steph and Klay and Kawhi on Draymond. It just provides more flexibility for the team.
Someone like Deng or Barnes would be nice to have.
