Kawhi is going to the Clippers and may not even improve them that much. He left the perfect situation in the Spurs.
Who were the opponents ?
Dunno. Doubt it matters much.
Kawhi not smart enough to know how a two for one works as he passes up on an open game winning shot from within 17 feet straight on. And then he lets DJ Augustin get an open three for the dagger on the simplest of picks. I can see why the Raptors won more w/o him.
And then the end of game airball.
I'm no Kawitter fan but lets not make up. He nailed a three to tie the game, made the defensive stop & secured the rebound, goes to the other end of the court and nails the shot to give them the lead. He made a great pass to the open man who missed the 3 pointer. Gasol ed up on the other end of the floor too. He was late on his close out.
Oh, and Kawhi. He ate another today.
What if Kawhi goes to the Lakers to come off the bench for LeBron?
Yea, he performed from 2:00 to 0:45. Then none of what I said was "making up."
Ok but isn’t Kyle Lowry an all star type player? Isn’t he the de facto leader of the team? Unforgivable to go scoreless, especially when your PG counterpart drops 25 for the Magic. Don’t tell me Kawhi playing was to blame for making Lowry suck that badly.
Well find out next year when Kawhi bolts for LA/NY market
Worst game Lowry could’ve had to start the playoffs. Hope for Raptor fans that this year will be different has already been ruined.
"And then he lets DJ Augustin get an open three for the dagger on the simplest of picks."
They were switching all day. Gasol left Augustine open when he didn't switch fast enough on him. I can see your point though. Former Defensive Player of the Year should have fought harder to stay on Orlando's hottest shooter. An argument could also be made that if you're going to sit out 20 something games with load management, you should also have the nads to take the game winning shot. I thought he made the right play to pass but whatever. They lost and I'm happy.
That was funny, right Kawhi?

Y’all are crazy. This game loss wasn’t Kawhi fault. Lowry was 0fer. That’s the difference.
Raptors might choke enough to lose epically!
Without Kawhi, this Raptors team would struggle to even make the playoffs. Lowry is an absolute bum.
Spurfan still mad about Kawhi for doing what he think it's right for him personally.
We have a legitimate beef with him bolting but let's not act like Leonard didn't improved the Raptors chances by a thousand. They went from fringe playoff team to legit threat for a Finals appearance.
Him choking today doesn't change their situation, playoffs wise. It's still a win because instead of watching from home, they're playing today and tomorrow or whenever.
No doubt, Kawhi deserves all the criticism for how he left San Antonio. But still, other than Kawhi, the Raptors have nothing other than role players, old fossils, and a morbidly obese fake "star" who chokes in the playoffs on a historic level.
