    It seems that Pop received part of the memo. Still not a lot Kawhi's post ups but he played Boris-LMA and the Spurs outplayed the Warriors in one area of the game... Warriors 37 rebounds, Spurs 53.

    It's not hard to see that in a small ball lineup or with Kawhi-Boris-LMA frontcourt, Kawhi will be a rebounding beast, 14 tonight.
    That lineup is encouraging and a good matchup vs. the Warriors small ball, but I don't know if it's sustainable because we never know which Boris we're going to get lately. But if Boris plays like that, we increase our odds.

    Scoring still needs to improve. 87 isn't enough to beat the Warriors in a series. I don't even think averaging 100 is enough.

    If the Spurs want to win a playoffs series against the Warriors, they have to slow their pace. I wouldn't say 87 every game but they can't match Warriors rhythm on offense and go for 100, 110 in the series, that won't work.

    A pace that results in 104-100, 106-103 like scores is slow enough and "fast enough."

    That pace was there tonight. Neither team just wasn't scoring, and the Spurs turned the ball over 17 times.

    Spurs hit half the chip shots they missed tonight and hit some of the freebies they missed tonight they top 100, which should be enough to beat the Dubs consistently if the defense/pace is like tonight.

    People are deluded if they think we're beating the Warriors, or even the Clippers and Thunder with a two man attack (Kawhi + LMA) that relegates everyone else to a role player.

    Every elite team has a better offensive 1-2 punch than us. Curry + Klay, Lebron + Kyrie, Blake + Paul, Durant + Westbrook. It could even be argued we have the weakest "Big 3" of the elite teams. We aren't winning jack if Tony is relegated to a 9-10ppg role player who just "Gibs the bawl to Kiwi ."

    If Manu and Duncan were 5 years younger, by all means, Tony should be relegated. But like it or not, he's our 3rd best offensive player and he NEEDS to be a threat. This is basically Kawhi's rookie season as "the guy." He hasn't peaked yet offensively. Like other elite offensive players (most of whom were the offensive guy their first day in the league), it took them 2-3 years to really become that guy who can carry a team on their shoulders. Kawhi isn't there yet, and is probably a season or two off from hitting his offensive peak. LMA's been great, but that 33% shooting in last year's playoffs will be a worry. We need a 3rd guy who is a threat to drop 15-20 points somewhat consistently, and the only player really capable of that is Tony (when healthy).

    And no, this ain't about re ed crew feuds. Kawhi is still the best overall player on this team, but he's going to need 2 or 3 guns by his side if we're to win this thing. Kawhi isn't just at the offensive level where he can average 30-35 points over a playoff series and make up the difference for teammates under-performing. Curry, Lebron, Durant and Westbrook are all at that level.
    Tony played great defense on Curry, though, while Patty House scored, what, 3 points, and got lit up by Leandro Barbosa.

    So yes, this game is an example of Tony's worth. Thanks for the validation
    He scored 6 points tonight. You just contradicted yourself.

    I'm always right. Which "committee" member is capable of stepping up with a 19 point performance on the road in what is practically a must win game?

    He disappeared 2 games in a row and came out and made shots. You actually just proved he is part of the "Committee".

    Yeah, keep thinking Danny, an 80 year old Manu, Patty House, and Fat Ass are putting up 19, 8, 5 on 50% at Chesapeake.

    I'm always right. You can apologize now.

    Danny was on fire 1st game. No one 2nd game. Tony 3rd game. He isn't a third option like you predicted.

    Counting a home game 40 point blowout
    Tony also had 12 dimes that game, setting the table for LMA like a chef.

    Road is where good players step up. Tony did.

    Just take the L, bro.

    The 2nd unit actually blew up a lead in the end of the first quarter. He was still great.
