He was cold after Pop left him and Timmy on the bench too long, Pop is continuing to overcoach.
what are the potential storylines, tbh?
a few:
- He has no legs for that shot anymore
- He's done. Had a couple of good weeks, but I called it.
- Pop should really rest him until Jan/Feb/Mar
- Why are we going to Manu with Kawhi on the floor?
- This is why Green should be closing out games
- I wannna be yooouuur heeeeeero, baby

The second one
He moves towards the basket because he knows it's off, steals the rebound, and we score off his assist.
more like "after all these years, why do we still have to depend on manu to try & close out games"
Kawhi is wide open asking for the ball.
Off topic: Spurs shouldn't have to resort to Tony/Patty lineups. Spurs need another wing player.
I'm actually surprised Kawhi didn't go for the post play with 6 secs left...
Player fan
In the Clips series, a worn out Manu wasn't getting close-out minutes. I don't recall him getting many 4th quarter minutes at all. It's good to see a springy Manu closing out games. Though, I think if Green pulls out of his slump, he'll be getting the lion's share of close-out minutes.
LMAO. Look at that stroke. Body facing the scorer's table. Left elbow flying. Clicks his heels together in mid-air. And I bet there weren't more than two rotations on that ball on its way to the basket.
Swish!
I don't care how he does it, he does it.
- Why does that fat, selfish PG not pass it to Kawhi? I'm calling a krew meeting immediately. Time to get my e- sucked.
Kawhi rarely gets the ball the last five games
Because he's our closer?
I have news for you. You cannot train someone to do that. VERY few players in the league even want that shot. It's the reason Pop rations his minutes in the RS.
Not sure if this is funny, tbh.
Kawhi was shooting 3's well in the last games, better 3FG% than Manu, a team leaves him wide open at the three point line, and Parker doesn't give him the ball...
Call me crazy, but sometimes it's nice to take advantage of the high-probability shots...
this one was more ballsy, IMO..a play that never gets old
Watch the clip again...it is right at the top of this page. Kawhi gives the ball to Tony and then never steps behind the three point line again during the play.
Tony did his usual job of attracting the defense (Manu's man moved to try help defense on Tony) and then, having done what he was supposed to do and noticing that Manu's defender has left Manu, did exactly the right thing and passed the ball to the OPEN three point shooter.
And btw, Kawhi did the right thing by moving in for a possible rebound if it didn't go in.
Tony, Manu and Kawhi all did exactly what they were supposed to do on that play. It is called "executing down the stretch"... a pretty good thing for us to do in close games.
The last two possesions were incredible.
- 5 passes.
- 2 backdoor cuts.
- 3 Players.
- 109 years combined.
- 553 wins together
I rather lose wit Manu than choke with Kawhi.
He played great that whole game. That was a big shot, but not fatal if he missed it.
And we did it again the next playthis one was more ballsy, IMO..a play that never gets old
Yeah Manu has been saving our teams ass for over 13 years now
Kawhi rarely gets the ball the last five games
