Well played rook. Well played.
I was really impressed with his game. Lots of hustle, tries hard on D (eventhough Jackson still torched him), rebounds and not afraid to pull up and shoot in the paint. Too bad for all the great potential in Leonard...Anderson and (now) Green have gotten worse in a hurry.

He is good because he plays great D without fouling
well...thats one of many reasons.
IDK about Green but Anderson is starting to piss me off.
ing Bonner getting 7 more minutes than Splitter. smh
How dare you mention anything positive in this time of crisis!!
he's great at recovering on defense. which is really helpful because his lateral movement is a lot worse than i thought it would be.
Jax torched him but some really good positives for the rookie tonight.
Two straight impressive games from Leonard.
He looks more comfortable and sure of himself.
Good stuff but like what Sean was saying on the sportscast, Leonard's gotta keep his hands up, blocking Stephen Jackson's view, rather than try and strip the ball. Good stuff though
I'm hoping, that with more expierence playing out on the perimeter, Leonard can improve his lateral movement.
Hollinger on ROY race:
5. Kawhi Leonard, San Antonio
Leonard has shown in the past three games why the Spurs were so willing to part with George Hill to obtain Leonard's rights, scoring double figures in all three. He's shooting 50 percent on the season, and while he hasn't shown a 3-point stroke, he's been able to step in and hit 18-footers consistently.
As expected, he's also providing beastly rebounding from the small forward spot at 9.2 per 40 minutes, and defensively he has one of the best steal rates at his position. Manu Ginobili's injury has opened the door for Leonard to get more playing time, but he'd have to take Richard Jefferson's job to have a realistic shot at the Rookie of the Year. Regardless, it's been an impressive start for a non-lottery pick; he's sixth among rookies in PER and fifth in estimated wins added.
Just saw Leonard at my job
Please tell me you make babies and children smile at a photo place and that you broke through to Leonard.Just saw Leonard at my job
