One option this season is to play Kawhi at the 4 spot & have him run 4-5 PnPs w/ Pau or LMA who could set a drag-screen at the 3 point line to force a switch. It would have to be against a team that doesn't have an elite 3 where Kawhi would have to be matched up against & that team might be the Cripples whom Pop could afford to have Kawhi play the 4 when Blake is on the bench.
Patty/Felton
Manure/Crawford
Simmons/Rivers
Kawhi/Johnson?
Pau/Speight

Poor man's Robinson would be a top 20 player in the league today
Soooo Pop don't wanna start him cuz it'll hurt Paul's feelings?
if he could be a poor man's draymond I'd take it tbh... both have some fire when they play, they shake things up
Where do you get that Pop hates republicans?
Just because he leans left doesn't mean he hates or isn't going to play republicans.
I think Dedmon should start. Would love to see him starting and Pau coming off the bench. I know it won't happen but I am loving Dedmon this year!
ST schticks sometimes...
For Chinook dude is coddled like a mofo by Pop. On the opposite side of the sceptrum, Apo is with the Pop hates Dedmond because he is republican.... I love this site
What? I never said anything like that about Dedmon. WTF is with ST creating "sound bites" out of thin air?
He wasn't talking about dedmon you stupid .![]()
i think we need him, but he can be quite dumb from time to time.. then again, better have random dumb moments than play lee
like my nigg dabom said, was talking about your Simmons is coddled stuff and Apo Dedmon is hated... I was not very clear in my post to be fair
Simmons being coddled is actually a law of physics, so I don't know what you're talking about.
Didn't realize he didn't play organized ball until he was 18
sure thing pal
Pop should take some of those games that he uses to rest people and rest Gasol only.
He won't lose the starting position, but the team can try Dedmon in the SL and see how it works.
I'd like to see him get some pointers from David Robinson on workouts, he needs some big guns like David had. I like this guy, he seems real sharp and a good guy as well.
I have loved Dedmon. I hope the team can resign him. Probably my favorite big in this team TBH.
Dedmon in the starting lineup and Pau off the bench is the obvious move. I doubt the super duper coach, which doesn't take from anyone and likes players that are "over themselves", does the move, tbh.
Dedmon needs more minutes than Lee from here on out.
He impacts the game in so many more ways. Love the activity he brings on both ends.
Great game by him.
I wish he was starting.![]()
Agreed. Though I don't think he should start. The Pau/diva thing is, well, a thing, and prime Manu set a precedent for a bench player being better than the guy he's supposedly backing up. Dedmon has definitely earned the right to finish games and play at least as many minutes as Pau imo.
Is "sceptrum" the same thing as "taint"? If it is, then I understand Chinook and Apo being on opposite sides of the sceptrum.
Agreed. But Pop can't bench Pau, since he already said in the offseason that "Pau is a starter" to silence the rumors about of him coming off the bench as the best fit with the Spurs lineups.
That was a surprising and ugly move by Pop. And exposed Pau's diva-at ude about his need of being recognized as starter.
I just hope that Pop reduces his minutes and plays Dedmon more.
I at least hope Pau and Dedmon get the Manu treatment and come off (if starting) or come in (if on the bench) at the 6 minute mark. Dedmon gained the right of being the first guy off the bench.
