Holy OP, take Kawhi's noodle out ur mouth
For someone who doesn't care what the media thinks you sure do spend a lot of time reading their .
Less than Booker, Beal, McCallum and the same as Klaynus. WTF is wrong with those idiots smh.
If that's the case, we'll be sub 500.
Harden/Westbrook understandable down a couple points each with the additions of Paul/George. But wtf is supposed to account for a more prime Kawhi backsliding?
I can only see him averaging 21 if Gay emerges and averages 16-18 along with LaMarcus averaging 16-18.
Everybody's numbers look very low. I don't know how they came up with this but it's .
It wouldn't surprise me one bit if Kawhi ends up as the leading scorer of the league, averaging around 30 ppg this season, tbh.
Kawhi gonna go down 4 pts cos of the arrival of Gay? If anything, the synergy could help him. And Parker won't be there ball hogging for the first half of the season, too.
Spurs are going to be this year and Kawhi will be double teamed like a mad man since the Spurs don't have any secondary option to make opposing teams pay.
You got that completely wrong. Relative to the rest the league, Spurs are still strong.
Kawhi averaged 27.5 per 36 last season. Pop only played him 33.6 mpg though.
He'll finally do the 50% from the field, 40% from three, 90% from the FT line trifecta next season.
So is this OP accurate, or are you misreading something else?
I know I'm going way out on a limb here but Kawhi will finish better than 20th in scoring next season. Book it.
He's not dipping down to 21 ppg. He will average 24 or more a game.
Your shtick every year is "The spurs are garbage they suck. They are awful." Pretty lame Shtick. It's very obvious you don't know what your talking about. That was shown last season through your ty regular season predictions and playoff predictions. I will never forget you declaring a bunch of times that the '16-'17 Spurs were going to be worse than the '11 Spurs. We all saw how that turned out. Also your predictions of the Spurs losing in the playoffs to the Grizzlies and then the Rockets were pretty laughable.
When was the last time ESPN was accurate with anything aside the gimmes like GS and CLE winning their conferences?
See him averaging 25ppg again. Hopefully his assists are closer to 5 apg than 3 though.
This pretty much...
The Spurs will be Leonard dependent and he will go on scoring tears during the season. That said, Pop will continue to micromanage Kawhi's minutes to the point where it limits his usage rate (where the likelihood that Leonard averages over 30 ppg is completely out of the realm of possibility).
I expect the usage rates of Bertans, Kyle and Murray will all increase (vs. last season) to minimize Leonard's wear and tear over the upcoming season.
Usage rate that only takes into account the time he's on the floor, he had a usage rate of 31% in 34.5 (which is massive) that means 31% of the spurs possesions when he was on the floor ended with him taking a shot, turning the ball over, drawing FTs, and or an assist. If anything I think his rate might increase considering LMA's went down from almost 26% to 24.5% and no Parker to start the season and Mills potentially starting and being more of a spot up shooter as opposed to handling the ball like a traditional PG.
Kawhi had 4.6 apg in playoffs with Parker injured.
It would be nice if he and Pop find a way to maintain and improve that number with Parker on court this time.
Two years of LMA as a Spur and I still wonder why Pop didn't call two-man game plays between him and Kawhi more often... I know that Parker excels at creating for bigs but a simple P&R involving Spurs' two main scorers wouldn't hurt their offense...
