*comment on Parker/Erin
Not really.He's moving the ball so well. People loved to talk about TP's hockey asts...It's time to start talking about how underrated Kawhi is in this area.
"Leonard can do it all: He can be a go-to scorer or he can lock down the opponent’s best player; he can rebound; he can pass.
...Leonard has become a player who has the strength to fire passes to the perimeter from the paint, and he’s accurate even when pressured.
...Leonard is averaging only 3.1 assists per game this season with the Raptors (and 2.3 for his career), but that doesn’t begin to explain his passing prowess. In the clip above, Leonard gets credited for nothing in the box score even though he’s the one who generates the open shot by driving baseline, drawing the defense, and then delivering a pass that leads to an assist
Leonard logged three assists over the final five minutes Tuesday — including this powerful drive followed by a LeBron-like kickout to Kyle Lowry for the corner 3.
It’s a magnificent play that few players are capable of making, but Leonard isn’t asked to do it as often as Toronto’s other stars, since Lowry runs point and Fred VanVleet handles the bulk of the creating off the bench. But when the Raptors need Leonard to make plays for others, Leonard comes through.
I find that to be Leonard’s best quality: He can morph into the type of player that his team needs, whenever they need it."

He's too mid-range dependent (his percentage of attempts from the midrange are the highest they ever been). Relatively poor dribble drive game.
-Kawhi's handles and drives are elite
-LOL blaming him for this when the kings of taking 1.000 mid-j per game -LMA and DeRozan- are on the Spurs
If he were B on offense? Knowing his role on offense??I used to argue blue in theface with the likes of YGHWI and those that wanted to see Kawhi drop 30 every night that he would be a much better overall player if he were B on offense (20-21ppg range) and just continued wreaking havoc on the defensive end. But Kawhi thinks he's a Jordan, Durant, Lebron level offensive talent. He isn't. Doesn't mean he can't be an MVP level player, but that's going to take a recommitment to defense and knowing his role on offense.
Kawhi led the Spurs to best win regular season record in franchise history as #1 option. And he's doing exactly the same thing in Toronto. I would call him a true "A on offense."
Sorry but you don't know .
Kawhi and KD gave it all tonight, a fantastic show. Kawhi in the first half then KD in the 2nd then Kawhi again in OT in defensive crucial possessions...
"but but he can't play defense anymore..." he does it when matters. Like that steal on Russ in 2014 playoffs to seal the series' win.
If people call them "divas"...give me these divas over narratives about team/coaches/Pop all day.
Kawhi missed a lot of game winners this season. Only thing disappointing about him
Popovich sounds bitter, why is he even discussing Kawhi. He could have said no comment. Worry about the players you have their leadership or lack their of. Especially with this team
Spurs have all the leadership they need in Patty Mills, even when down 48. According to DPG21920
If it wasn’t for Patty they would’ve been down by 49 instead!
he got robbed of an mvp, didnt he had like a 7-1 record against the main contenders for mvp or top contender teams?
I wonder if this is part of the tendinopathy, he can get into a rythm, but gets distracted in dead ball situations by the pain
He can't have missed more than four . . .
Matt Barnes ate Kiwi cookies the whole serie
Kiwi is the reason we win
Kiwi is not the reason we lose
you must be the most re ed er of this board.. and that's saying a bunch
Porker was the actual reason you lost that series, tbh. I remember breathing a sigh of relief every time Porker checked in and MVPatty went to the bench.
WTF...The WHOLE series?? Kawhi averaged 23.4 ppg .54FG% until game 6.
He had many great games on both ends in that series.
I can't remember a player having all 7 outstanding games in a series in last 10 years. Neither LeBron/KD did it. They had bad games in playoffs but unlike Kawhii, they had other teammate that took over in Irving/Curry.
Leaders bring teams together win or lose. You win as team and lose as team to 1 point to 40 points . miss you tim.
Yeah also TP being bad and Pop not knowing how to defend a pick and roll and Splitter's injury.
Sorry, but I know a of a lot more than you. Even many of my detractors have conceded as much.
What does the level of play (in one random regular season game, no less) between 2 of the best players in the league have to do with my calling them divas? You can be a great player without acting like a puke. As a supposed Spurs fan, you should know that.
Lol TP on the same level as Kawhiless
Holy how unathletic is this lineup![]()
average
Matt Barnes made kawhi ing Leonard his ... Matt ing Barnes..but he is not the reason we lost
it’s all on pop.. give me a ing break
Good thing we have a leader like patty mills
he can for sure lead the team through a 40+ point loss, something Kawhi could never do
Good Job Pop
you the man

Hill was fired by one of his bosses, Gregg Popovich, who thereafter replaced Hill as the Spurs coach. Hill's firing at the time was puzzling to some and deeply angered Hill, considering his previous success and the fact that the poor start to the season was due in large part to injuries to David Robinson and Sean Elliott, the team's two best players.
