Man, if we had won the Kawhi sweepstakes with a CJ/Collins/1st package, we'd have a legit chance at winning the whole thing this year. Even if he left, it would've been worth it.

I disagree. I don't even think we make it to the WCF with that deal.
 
HA! It was just a post saying that Philly is going to have to offer Tobias the $191M max in order to keep him. Blew me away! No way in hell that dude deserves that.

Watching Bucks & Raps and they are flat out pushing the ball every rebound or in bound pass.
We have to do more of this next year as it prevents the D from locking in plus players can create thus getting more from wings.
 
Kyle Lowry fumbling the ball like that is such a Kyle Lowry thing to happen.

Hell, Draymond was fucking killing us with that. The thing is, I don't think we have the ability to do this since the Stottsfense has been ingrained into the mental capacities of our star backcourt. Stotts would need to preach this change in the offseason on a consistent basis and I just don't see him or our star players doing that.

Because Stotts yells run but they don’t run with any sort of purpose. It’s why you see some guys push 1v4 during fast break situations. They don’t actually know how to push properly.

I’ve heard Stotts yell at the guys to push it I honestly think it the reluctance of player leadership, yes I include Dame.
Love Dame put he needs to push it a hell of a lot more.

You would think at some point after playoff failure after playoff failure mostly thanks to the Warriors, these guys would experiment with something else. I feel that at times we can score some easy buckets via transition but they make it more difficult than it should be.
 
Thinking the Raptors got him for DeMarr ... is crazy. This rental was well worth it, even if only for 1 year. Struck of genius from the Raptor's GM (forgot his name).
 
That strange feeling when calls go your way for once...

Kwahi Leonard is the best player of the entire playoffs.

The gap in greatness between he and Giannis is extremely wide. And as we know Giannis is pretty damn good, but when the game is on the line...... is there any comparison? Kawhi exerts so much energy on defense that sometimes he is gassed at the end, but he still caries the team. I would agree that no one has been better this year. Certainly not the Greek Freak.
 
Giannis need some post up move fade away jump shots. He don’t need 3’s but just post up moves and hit some FTs .
 
I'm shocked ...
Who do you think will win Kawhi sweepstake ?
He said he is better than Lebron ...and doesn't need LeBron ... and I agree.
 
How is Spurs nation feeling about this Kawhi? They had him, let him walk. The "model franchise" ... couldn't keep the best player in the NBA.
Can I (the Blazers) claim him, since I went to SDSU?
 
If Kawhi moves West and doesn't play with LeBron ... Watch Lebron force his way back to the East ...to the 76ers.
