KBP going for the throat
I miss your original account. Shame it was unfairly banned by Kori Ellis and TIMVP.

the truth will set u free
All karma after laughing over planting an elbow in someone's face.
Hibernating on Silver and Black company time?![]()
I'll be honest, it hurts like a mofo seeing Kawhi doing so well in another uniform.
His jersey was the first jersey I bought for my daughter when she was 2 years old. And oddly enough I bought it at the att center spurs shop AFTER game 5 against OKC in 2016 which happened to be Duncans last home game. The torch was passed. We lost that game but I felt good about our future because of Kawhi. I figured it would be a good investment.
He was the perfect Spur. Humble, quiet, lets his play do the talking, and a defensive guru. But then it all broke.
Blaming the Spurs or Kawhi for what went down last year doesn't make me feel any better. Our star player is gone and thats that. Sucks. But gotta move on.
Spurs are still my team. I hope we are able to find a top 5 talent again within the next few years.

"I'm having fun. I've been in the tough battles, played the greatest teams, been to the Finals. I'm just in a moment having fun. I think that's what you've got to do. I've got to enjoy this, enjoy this NBA. I don't want to look back and say, 'Damn. I was too stressed or too locked in to have fun and play the game I've got to play.' That's what I've learned from my past and that's what I take in every game, just going out there and having fun, but competing my ass off and leaving it all out there to try win a game."
Well I am surprised ppl here are surprised how good Leonard is.
That was obvious. They guy is top3 in NBA and you can argue the best. I was saying it 2 years back. If he stayed with the Spurs he would be even better. But yeah some here thought DDR is a fair trade... Add losing Danny
Kawhi is playing like 2017 Kawhi. 2017 Kawhi was better on defense cause he played like a DPOY on that end while playing like an MVP on the other. Nothing surprising here. I just don't want him to ring, that's all. Media is acting like he hasn't played on that level for the Spurs when he actually did
All true. And all the more reason for me to say, once again: Kawhi.
Be a man. Go to management and ask for/demand a trade. And the Spurs could have gotten a truly impressive package for him.
It hurts because we got a sandwhich offer and took it
Too bad the Spurs didn’t get a ‘player to be named later’ clause in that trade.
An xtra pick wouldnt of hurt either
The absolute worst trade the Spurs have ever made. If anybody can name a worst trade the franchise has ever made, speak up.
What didn't get mentioned much was that had Toronto finished in the top 20, we don't get their 2019 #1, but get two future #2s. What kind of ing idiots would agree to that? Not to mention agreeing to send them $5 million.
Scola for jackie butler!? Rodman for perdue!?derek anderson for steve smith?
Kawhi for Mills and Gasol!?
The fact they wasted a max slot on those two still hurts
Damn Kawhi is good. I can't watch highlights of those games.
I have a history of openly admitting when things still hurt, tbh
Losing Nephew obviously sucks but, eh, welcome to the real NBA. Not all superstars are cut from the David Robinson and Tim Duncan cloth. Small market teams being able to keep a superstar for the duration of his career is an exception not the rule.
2013 hurt.
1995 hurt.
Ownership being too cheap to trade Terry mings and Willie Anderson for Charles Barkley hurt.
Elliott needing a kidney transplant right after the 1999 championship hurt.
Trading away a disgruntled superstar who stopped supporting his teammates and wanted out? Unfortunate but that's part of the NBA.
You forgot 1979
Other than Duncan has that ever happened...Small market teams being able to keep a superstar for the duration of his career is an exception not the rule.
I don't recall that story. Can you elaborate?
