I can't be the only that sees this ..Going up against good teams and elite teams, the kid gets touches. he's averaging 13.5 touches against teams .600 or better, against teams he'd be lucky to get points from a play. Spurstalk geniuses, what's is pop's mentality here? ty offensive system that wins against bad teams? ( Where kawhi is reduced to spot up shooter), Stat padding by other players? Pop using him as a wildcard? What is it?
I mean If I was 22 and asked to make shots and take shots against good and elite teams, and then asked to be reduced as spot up shooter against bad teams..How would I feel? Does pop even consider the possible consequences of having a frustrated leoanrd? I've noticed the last 6 games, the team has put in effort to give splitter touches, are they trying to develop the guy? We all know his fruit cake offense amount to nothing in the play-offs..So why him? why not the guy who has continuously proven his clutch and can make plays when it matters?
What is the old man thinking?
