    - not going to get the same amount of minutes as his rivals..

    - not as much offensive freedom..

    30mpg won't get you anywhere...

    Thinking about it now, kawhi has sacrificed the most in terms of touches just to get the team rolling...Its funny how all of a sudden he is better than a certain player come WCF and Finals time...Hmm

    Good. Gives his agent less leverage when we he seeks contracts from other teams in the open market.

    Look, we all want Kawhi to do extremely well and become a superstar, but the shortcomings in his game are easy to see.

    - His dribbling is shaky and he is prone to travelling violations. Having him initiate an iso or a pick and roll will lead to more turnovers
    - His post game is decent thanks to his size advantage over most players, but he doesn't have the scoring touch inside the paint even if he does back down the defender
    - He doesn't have great court awareness yet, and would rather take an off-balance shot when he is in trouble than attempt a difficult pass

    IMO he is still not polished enough offensively to be an efficient #1 or even #2 option. His best contribution will still be off the ball, whether cutting to the basket, finishing on the fast break, shooting the open jumper, crashing the offensive boards etc.

    The Spurs offense is all about passing, motion and rhythm, but the starting point is most often a pick-and-roll (initiated by Manu or TP) or a high post catch (by Duncan or Diaw). That's why you will see those 4 players continue to make the key decisions on offense.

    This is all very true but I imagine Pop would try to incorporate more TP-Kawhi PnRs to start the season, especially with Tiago on the bench/injured. Having Bonner or Diaw there to spread the defense and provide spacing would do wonders for improving Kawhi's overall offensive impact. Otherwise, as you said, he'd be no more than 3rd option in any possible line-up until his dribbling and awareness improve dramatically.

    Who gives a if he makes the ASG or not...

    What matters is championship, dude delivered on the highest stage of a championship final, he will get paid ASG or not

    not sure why OP ing care about mpg, raw stats and ASG appearances... Spurs don't give a , he hold mpg of all the roster for years (see Manu) now suddenly he should manage his players like Thib or Brooks ? gtfo
