Fun game! I usually contradict claims of there being a bad turnout, but tonight there a lot of empty seats. Not just the corporate sideline seats. Is it just Kawhi being out?
contract year Kyle.
Bad news for the Spurs because they'll match any offer at all costs.
^ Damn, even Gasol is taking potshots at Pop.
+ he's helping the team win. The stats wouldn't mean if he was in a losing streak of 6-7 games in a row like Jsimms "empty calories" is. And I don't like to on Jsimms bc I don't dislike him, but trolls here have been ting on Kyle for too long.
Specially impressive bc this is a guy who was between 11-13 in the rotation last season and getting DNP but never stopped working on his game. True Spur.
The truth....
Gasol with the passive agressive "I want to play more" comment.
i took it as a slight jab at pop lol
Gaymond burned by Bogdan
Lonzo with his usual 14% shooting
Wow I had forgotten about it. Very similar numbers to the ones he put up in college.
I'd consider him a draft steal when you consider Bruno Caboclo was drafted at 20 (and his 2 years away from being 2 years away are looking like they meant years away from completely falling off as a prospect) and so many others like James Young drafted by the Celtics in at 17 and Adreian Payne at 15 aren't in the league anymore. Looked at Memphis and what they have to show for their picks. To get a nice rotation player at 30 can't be taken for granted (look at Spurs themselves gamble with LJC, who didn't turn into an NBA player). Kyle is a success story.
Jokic was the big fish steal but I have seen a report where by his own admission he stated he was out of shape, not taking the sport seriously or playing well at the young age he was drafted and was even considering not going pro at all. Not even Denver knew what they had. He was just a surprise.
But from what I have heard from casaul fans that he's a better defender than Kawhi.
Lakers shooting guard with 29 pts on 28 shots. That brings back memories.
