I don't like the way he's playing at all. That's not the reason I am posting though. I'm posting to say that you're a complete wit.
Manu hasn't. Neither has Patty, Boris, etc.
couldnt agree more, tonights game was probably his worst
he's gotta pick it up, 1st step is to hit the gym and get his 3 pt shot back to a respectable %
he's been up and down this season, im not worried but it's his chance since parker obviously isnt even close to 100%
yeah, with spurs starting lineup only has one player who can shoot, now you see green getting some open looks with the 2nd unit and marco in a slump
it's vital for kawhi to shoot the 3 ball well, he's prolly more important to this spurs team as a 3 and D guy when everyones healthy, unfortunately, he's got an in between game thats not consistent and also lost his 3 pt jumper
I don't understand what happened to his three-point shot, tbh. He hit threes alright last season, but he started shooting like shat from the 3PT line during the latter part of last season and he's been atrocious this season, considering most of the wanker's attempts are wide open, tbh.
It's been posted on Spurstalk that the Spurs are on pace to shoot an all tie low amount of FT's. It's pretty sad to think about. Especially when the Spurs have Leonard, he obviously plays better slashing to the hoop and posting up smaller guys. He has the length and hops. Yet for some reason Pop wants him to shoot 3's??? We can't shoot 3's if no one is collapsing the paint. I don't know WTF is going on. I really don't. I don't know what our coaching staff is thinking either. It seems like everyone on the team has regressed in shooting 3's. Why? Obviously because our opponents don't have to commit to stopping any dribble penetration/post play. I don't know what else to say. It seems like we have a fairly easy fix/capable player and solution but Pop isn't exploring it/going to it....
Leonard is overrated. People on this site and "causal" fans making him out to be the next max-player or some . Honestly, if we can flip him and actually get better, I think we should pull the trigger. I'm not saying he isn't good and that I'm NOT in love with his energy and hustle, but he's not THAT good.
belinelli doing what belinelli does.
I bet if he gets traded to a team like Milwaukee he will start putting up big numbers (18+ppg 7.0+rpg 3.0+apg 2.0spg ) and ya'll will miss him. The truth is, we should appreciate him, you never know what you got until its gone and that's the truth. #Appreciate
Even if Leonard's 3-point shot returns to form, the problem will remain that he's just a spot-up shooter in this system, tbh..
Kawhi has been the savior for this franchise. Without him, we couldn't even think of nabbing #5. Nuff said
Harrison Barnes...

highest FG% of his career
panic over a miniscule sample size
PUTZ
Yeah Pop's not utilizing him enough OR he's still got that injury. My question though is why cant he rebound or steal more or block more shots? He should be like an offensive rebounding machine.
highest rebounds per game for his career.
Anyone know a NBA wing with less ball skills than kawhi? There's Korver, Novak, maybe sam young, Keith bogans. Not good company
spurs are going to need more than 1.0 free throws per game from kawhi. Unbelievable that such a strong, young player, who can easily finish at the rim, cannot get to the line more often
age isn't an excuse anymore. The dude needs to step the up because he has not developed properly. He's still deficient in the same old areas
One of the things you guys have to remember about Leonard is that even though he is only 22, last season he had a nagging knee injury that was responsible for slowing him down late in the year.
Pop is on record as saying that he relied on Parker so much last season that he wore him down, and he doesn't want to repeat that. Don't you think he is dong the same with Kawhi and Tony both this year?
Pop is notorious for keeping his players out of games or out of situations that wear down their bodies. Last year he was so worried about Manu and Tim not being available come Playoff time, he rode Parker and Kawhi into the ground. This year he is gonna try to do it differently.
Of course Kawhi was going to be asked to do more when Tony was out precisely BECAUSE Tony was out, and someone else on the starters needed to pick up Parker's scoring.
How/why did he do that?
Thank goodness Manu hasn't regressed over last season or he would be in the D-League.
This. The cog we have been missing since Bruce left.
Kawhi is:
1) Passive.
2) Not athletic. (Can't jump)
3) Not a good shooter.
4) Shy.
5) Poor ball handler. (Out of control when the ball is in his hands)
Please God don't tell me were gunna pay this guy this summer. His long arms get us a few steals and rebounds more a game, but otherwise, he's just not worth it. The FO needs to make it clear that we'd like to keep him on as a role player--paying between 3-5 million a year, but otherwise, he can go elsewhere.
My guess is Kawhi won't be a Spur next year.
Pfffft, why even mention Manu? He can score 25 against all the scrub teams he wants but he destroyed his legacy in June of last year. I don't give a what he does from here on out, the only thing that can save him is to get back to the finals and not commit 30 turnovers or shoot 25%. Patty doesn't count because he was 3rd string and is only as good now as he was in Portland now that he gets minutes. Boris...yeah I guess I'll give you that.
