Kawhi shooting too much

[bic50]

Yeah he is taking a lot of bad shots for a Spur,and at the expense of Aldridge tbh.
When Leonard gasses during the PO's we better hope LMA gets into a rhythm

Not really

[rudwick]

Pink and/or ban OP, tbh.

Coming from such a dumbass, I'll take that as a compliment.

[spurraider21]

spurfan needs to be careful... dont treat kawhi like kobestans treated kobe

Get back to me when Kawhi becomes inefficient and the Spurs miss the playoffs with him at the helm. Until then your comparison is .

[rudwick]

Some of you geniuses may want Kawhi to turn into another Carmelo or Kobe. I don't. Those guys are losers.

I think Kawhi is trying to live up to MVP expectations or his own expectations by forcing things on the offense. He is always a good option but sometimes others would be better and I think the team is suffering a little because of it. We've struggled to beat some mediocre teams and I think the reason is the ball sticking too much so that some players can get their 30 or 20 points instead of working for the best shot for the team.

He has to. Just look how that exceptional backcourt of ours is playing tonight.

This is the problem with the Spurs being built around a frontline-centric offense. Bigs are easy to double, so it's not like Kawhi can just defer to LMA or Gasol for stretches. They'll get doubled and the ball will get passed back out to a perimeter player, namely Kawhi, since D-League, Parker, House, et al are scorers.

[Play Boban]

Porker is 0-4 from the free throw line.

[GSH]

Yeah, Kawhi is shooting too much. He should just shoot the ones he's going to make, and not shoot the ones he's going to miss.

[rasuo214]

The Spurs are now 12-3 when Kawhi takes 20 or more shots.

[cd021]

Leonard-22 Games with 30 points or more this season

Spurs 18-4, (0.818) in those games

That's stupid. Obviously the criticism with Kobestans was that they would defend Kirby to the death despite increasing amounts of evidence showing his play was inefficient and cancerous. If Kirby was efficient and played winning basketball his fans would've had every right to defend him.

[sananspursfan21]

Shut up. Seriously. Shut your cyber mouth right now.

Melo sure.... Kobe is a rapist and an asshole and otherwise horrid person but he isn't a loser

[DAF86]

sounds familiar imo

Except for the fact that Kawhi only takes like 17 shots per game and is a 50/40/90 shooter. Aside from that, spot on comparison bro.

[MultiTroll]

Just because Kawhi has mostly excellent shot selection, don't kid yourselves he still has too many Kobme possessions.
Due to the offense at times being clueless as ordered by Pop. The most versatile point guard wasting on the bench.
"Throw it to Kawhi and stand around" = "4 Down" when on too many occasions Pop ordered the ball to be thrown to Duncan (very good) but the others were supposed to stand around (bad, losing, "4 Dumb").

Hey OP, never post again. You obviously don't watch basketball, so why comment?

Are you mental?

Comparing the rhetoric from fans without contemplating the players they are referring to is idiotic. You look like DMC claiming we were hypocrites by saying it was ok for Curry to be taking all those shots, while saying Kobe should shot less, tbh.

curry taking three pointers is better than kobe taking three pointers. that's math. i dont defend curry taking dumb heat-check threes as often as he does

but defending player X for taking bad shots because his teammates suck is kobestan talk. a bad shot is a bad shot.
