Kawhi Benched the whole third quarter for having 3 fouls and took 2 shots

You said "Pop is an idiot" - think about that.

Overreaction on my part.

the comeback was inevitable

you dont score 140 points for a game in the POs, you gotta give credit to the spurs for keeping Portland contained somewhat and closing it out very well in the 4th

I know you're new to spurs basketball, but how long have been watching professional basketball?

The people say is baffling.

Rob is a troll account and that is all he ever does.

He made a transition 3 with 17 second on the clock Pop doesn't like it so he is bench till the Blazer make a come back.

If we get through this round he is going to have to play big minutes on KD maybe and then if we do make it play on Bron again.
So if we can give him rest in blow out games then why not I guess.

Exactly. Pop is just saving him. I am sorry, there is no reason to play Kawhi 44 minutes like Batum when you have a double digit lead for most of the game. The reason he was so effective in the 4th was b/c he was fresh while the Blazers were spent.

Kawhi has the possibility of guarding the league's MVPs the past two years in the next two rounds should the Spurs advance.

My post is full of truth. Manu led the Blazers comeback and Kawhi came in to hit some clutch shots to put the game away. What of that is not true?

Other than the entire post of regurgitated bull that you and others continue to spew and think it's original witty and relevant?

Pop always sits a Hot Hand.

Got to rest him. He played all 82 games and averaged 40+ minutes during the season. Plus he's getting up there in age.
