Simmons is so odd lol. Man if he could play like this more consistently. That crossover and shooting on a dime is big time stuff

He's streaky and can have games like this... good moment to have it though.

[TheGreatYacht]

Lol at anyone who says Simmons is as bad as Kyle. At least Simmons brings energy and excitement to the game. The only one who gets out of their seat for Fathead is SAGirl.

AT&T Center fans got out of their seats for Fatfood

LDN talking to the Blazers bench again

Really?! Oh , Pop is gonna bench him for the next 50 games...

He has the right idea A LOT, but he comes up short on execution. I don't know if that's going to get better with experience, or if it's just who he is. But he definitely stretches his boundaries. His aggressiveness keeps pressure on the defense, and he gets it right often enough that they can't ignore it.

He'll join the void known as the Bertans Zone.

Portland has gone cold.

[HarlemHeat37]

IF he plays like that consistently, he’s a starter on a lot of teams.

OTOH, what’s with Danny and Portland’s bench? He seems to look at em after hitting threes. I like it

Ed Davis, fellow Tarheel IIRC..

[Ron Swanson]

Too close for Danny to make that one.

[timtonymanu]

Danny going 2013 on the Guest team

[FkLA]

I never though a minute we had a chance this year...

No defensive anchor and no go to guy offensively = no shot at the le (unless crazy amount of injuries in those teams)

No go to guy offensively? Your beloved Enrique could only dream of having as good of an offensive season as Kawhi is having.

[Robz4000]

LDN destroying s

[timtonymanu]

Green showing why he's the 2nd most impactful player

[GSH]

Agreed, there have been times, especially knowing its' coming that LMA handled it poorly. But they are treating Lma like he's MJ. I've very rarely seen a player doubled this hard this consistently for an entire game.

What you said is true but there's also an element of "revenge" and "let's not let LMA get his regardless of the win/loss" in play

That may be. But they couldn't afford that kind of revenge if Kawhi had been on the floor. He would have cut them to shreds.

[spurs1990]

Boxscore right? How in the world has Aldridge only taken 3 shots

[100%duncan]

No go to guy offensively? Your beloved Enrique could only dream of having as good of an offensive season as Kawhi is having.

smh

He doesn't do that out of the blue. The guests must have instigated it.

[SAGirl]

LMA passed an open shot... wide open

[lofds]

I'm surprised Pop didn't yank him out for that.

Then he does it again! I think Pop will let Danny do whatever the he wants when he is shooting like this.

[Ron Swanson]

Kyle

[NASpurs]

FATHEAD WHAAAAAAAAAAAT

[100%duncan]

Fathead

[DPG21920]

That may be. But they couldn't afford that kind of revenge if Kawhi had been on the floor. He would have cut them to shreds.

For sure. I'm saying in conjunction with that, it was a ridiculous over play of that strategy. Cousins doesn't even see double teams like LMa saw tonight and his team never has Kawhi

[r0drig0lac]

haha Kyle

[spurtech09]

Anderson!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[TheGreatYacht]

What a pass from the HOTS
