Wouldn't've stopped him from passing out anytime he got an opening.
The Boban role is what best suits him, tbh.

Agree. When people say 'he get torched by KD tonight', they should put it in context, the same 4-time scoring champion scored 17 points in the 4th quarter of a crucial playoffs game over Danny and Kawhi, the best two perimeter defenders in the league.
On offense? Kyle can have better performances, we'll see.
Jefferson didn't get postups b/c his job was to hangout in the corner; Pop isn't going to up the geometry of the offense to postup the 5th option.![]()
mid didn't watch the game. let's hear him tell us about things he didn't see before we make any judgements.
To be fair about that, he didn't get enough repe ions at that spot over preseason or in practices, and even less with these guys. Bertans got most of the bench 4 minutes (and well deserved), but there was also LJC. Kyle really just played very little at the 4 during preseason so he doesn't have enough practice at that spot even.
Sarcasm.
Was referring to our conversation on how he thought Anderson needs to be posting up vs. Warriors.
Honestly no. I think they needed to call a play to get him a wide open corner 3, which he has been hitting once Pop saw the hesitation. They needed to establish he can shoot the 3 to get his confidence rolling but really more than that, so the other team respects him as a shooter and they guard him.
They didn't do that, he was spotted in the wing in Danny's spots, sometimes (not all the time, but often) guarded by Durant who can get to his shot easily even if he seems like he was somewhat open 4-5 away, bc Durant is that tall and Kyle is not a pure sniper like that. Him passing up those shots was maybe ok, but he can't be out there a non factor. This game as going to be all Kiwi and LMA, even Tony and Pay took very little shots. But that's no excuse for him. I was disappointed.

Got_it.
Passive, indecisive, slow-footed, and a non-factor until the 4th where he hit one shot.
Typical Fathead, tbh.
Possibly the worst player in Spurs history.
Tried to tell y'all. The guy is just useless.
Time to hear Kyle fans say how much Pop babies Simmons and gives him undeserved minutes![]()
Kyle can be serviceable...Somewhere. Maybe China.
Did I just read that playing team ball freezes out Kyle?
As if this team actually needs to take touches away from others and run plays trying to put Kyle in a position to succeed. Guy needs to take the shots he gets within the offense instead of being passive or indecisive once the ball ends up in his hands.![]()
I agree, but it will not happen playing in SAS (1st unit: Parker / Kawhi 2nd unit: Manu / Simmons)
in case y'all think she's being metaphorical, uh uh.
Like rainbows followed by roses
Plenty of that going around lol
If we want to destroy all that's good right now, it will be inserting Kyle into the bench unit when Danny comes back.
It must be repeated that we had the best bench last year in the whole league but once Kyle's role increased everything there started to get worse. He has awful chemistry with the best players on the bench and his slow feet can't defending anything.
The only minimal good sign for him was hitting that pretty good looking corner 3. If that's for real that gives him a little bit of a hope for a career in this league and maybe just maybe some kind of value to the bench.
Otherwise he can go be China MVP contender ASAP.
This 100x, that bench was cancerous when his role increased. Just look at the playoffs where he averaged 2.3ppg, 2.4rpg, 0.7apg on 32% shooting
Here's the problem. He's not good enough to have the ball in relevant situations ( close games/ playoff games) against good teams.
His only strength on offense, having the ball in his hands, can only be effective against poor teams.
Pretty much this,.. Until he proves otherwise
Ummm no... the bench took a nosedive when Manu's nut exploded (during his rehab)...
Agreed! Wtf was he doing on Durant![]()
Frankly they got worse when Pop got K.Martin in the team and insisted he play.
