:rockon:

[Spurs5Rings2014]

Kyle Anderson starting again.

:facepalm

[Proctor]

Spurs looking tentative and tired

[lilteapot]

Not a lot of ball movement from the spurs

[tpols]

kawhi looks like hes making that leap offensively

[Spurs5Rings2014]

Jesus, Leonard is an offensive BEAST now. Unstoppable. Single-handedly keeping us in the game.

:bowdown:

[Naero]

Hot-handed start for this season's eventual MVP and who I'm predictive will become the next unanimous BITW the soonest. :applause:

The rest of the Spurs' offense is stagnant, but those stretches are inevitable with most teams and thus superstars are oftentimes needed to step up and compensate for the rest of the team's collective deficiencies on that end; that's what we're seeing with The Claw so far.

[Proctor]

Leonard is remarkable. :rockon:

[Spurs5Rings2014]

Leonard with 11 so far in just the first quarter.

:eek:

[atljonesbro]

Da Kangz lookin sharp.

[lilteapot]

Kings getting after it on defense

[Spurs5Rings2014]

Dedmon: 8 points in 5 mins.

:bowdown:

[Duggrr]

Dedmon and David Lee :applause:

[Spurs5Rings2014]

David Lee.

:bowdown:

[Proctor]

Kings defensive intensity (at least this game) has been outstanding. Wow.

[Spurs5Rings2014]

Kings defensive intensity (at least this game) has been outstanding. Wow.

They can't keep that up the whole game and they are careless with the ball. We got this.

:rockon:

[Spurs5Rings2014]

Parker laying a goose egg. Pau getting torched by Cousins.

:facepalm

[Artillery]

Softridge had it easy last game against the small, non-existent Warriors frontcourt. Dude looks scared now that he has to play against legit bigs tonight :oldlol:

[Spurs5Rings2014]

Rudy is hungry as hell out there, trying to make a name off of the BITW.

:coleman:

[AussieSteve]

Does anyone else think that pop should be starting patty mills over parker? Or am I just a deluded Australian?

[Spurs5Rings2014]

Been saying this for years now.

:confusedshrug:

You're correct. TP has been trash for a while now. Can't shoot/can't pass. No positive impact in any way shape or form. Similar to post-Achilles Kobe, he's an overpaid cancer that's living on his past reputation.

[Artillery]

Kawhi is legit but the rest of the Spurs starters are trash. They looked terrible against GSW too. It was Kawhi, LMA + the bench that beat them on opening night.

Gasol is washed up and cant defend. Parker is a cancer and one of the worst players in the nba. Kyle Anderson has no athleticism and can't do anything at an nba level. He looks D-League on most nights. Aldridge is soft and only plays well when it's convenient for him. Even then, he's still the only decent help Leonard has on the starting unit. Can't wait until Danny Green comes back.

[tpols]

kawhi has ripped guys 4 times for fastbreak layups this quarter .. geez

[Spurs5Rings2014]

Leonard is a certified ball thief. It looks like he's going to have an MJ level year this season with his overall impact out on the floor for his team.

:bowdown:

This shit is absurd :roll: :roll:

[k0kakw0rld]

Damn Kawhi :eek:

[Spurs5Rings2014]

16-2 run. Where you at, ImStillBallin? Bring that ass here, boy.

:oldlol:

[Artillery]

every single spur starter -14 tonight. except leonard. bench players all +18. get kawhi some damn help on the starting unit pop!

Our starters have been pretty underwhelming tonight and against the Warriors outside of Leonard/Aldridge. Aldridge hasn't even been great tonight either. It's pretty much the Kawhi Leonard show. He's going to have to do everything on a nightly basis on both ends this season. Parker and Pau are done + aren't great defenders. I'm really liking what I'm seeing from Dedmon and Simmons so far, though. I expect lots of minutes for them.

parker and gasol need to retire and go back to europe. old eurotrash that can't defend or score. useless.

[Artillery]

alcoholic ty lawson lookin like a more competent nba player than tp :lol

[Spurs5Rings2014]

Leonard making it happen everywhere. His passing/play-making/facilitating seems to have taken a leap as well.

:eek:

[Artillery]

softridge struggling when he's actually defended by real nba bigs.

[Spurs5Rings2014]

Cousins' outside shooting is unreal. We have no one that can keep him check now that our GOAT is retired.

:coleman:

[Artillery]

must be humbling for tony parker to know that the kings center is a better three point shooter than he is :oldlol:

that poor french work ethic. coasting by his entire career on the spurs instead of working on improving his game.

[Proctor]

Pop gonna put Ginobili in the hospital playing him these minutes.

[Artillery]

Pop gonna put Ginobili in the hospital playing him these minutes.

doesn't have any other choice. pop needs a playmaker out there what with tony giving us nothing.

[Spurs5Rings2014]

Well, at least Aldridge is getting to the line.

[Artillery]

like i said two days ago, simmons had the game of his life against gsw. guy has too many flaws in his game to be a consistent contributer. not doing much tonight. though he's still not as bad as any of the starters(parker, anderson, gasol)

[To4]

Fuq.. Kawhi is a thief... 3rd straight DPOY..

PARKER should get traded but Spurs won't do it. he just hurts the team since 2015.

pop's biggest flaw is loyalty to his vets. parker's contract should never have been extended in 2014 when he wasnt even that good that year.

spurs should have been developing another pg years ago. guess they assumed tp would age like fine wine like duncan and ginobili did. faulty thinking on their part. those two have great work ethic + high bball iq, both traits which tony lacks.

[k0kakw0rld]

LMA :applause:

Im alright with Manu as he still provides decent playmaking and Duncan with that defense

but with porker?? nothing at all. :roll:

[Spurs5Rings2014]

Parker back in the game.

:facepalm

[Artillery]

duncan and manu had good longevity so i had no issues with them. you could tell parker would have poor longevity back in 2005. his entire game relied on his speed. unlike duncan and manu who were both skilled and smart players.

[Spurs5Rings2014]

Leonard taking over in the clutch again. 5 steals this game just like last game to go along with 26+ points and 5+ assists (30.5 PPG thus far this season).

kings doubling and kawhi still scores :bowdown:

[Spurs5Rings2014]

Leonard offensive leap. Take-over alpha dog mentality. 28 points (31.5 PPG thus far this season).

[Spurs5Rings2014]

Why the hell is Porker still shooting?

:facepalm

[Artillery]

parker trying to statpad when the game is over:facepalm

pass the ball to kawhi you washed up bum

[Spurs5Rings2014]

LEONARD WITH THE DAGGER FROM THE TOP OF THE KEY. ALPHA DOG TAKE-OVER MENTALITY ICE IN HIS VEINS.

30. POINTS. BACK TO BACK 30+ POINT GAMES TO START OFF THE SEASON.

32.5 PPG THUS FAR THIS SEASON.

:bowdown:

[To4]

Kawhi is a monster.

[Naero]

First time in Kawhi Leonard's career wherein he's strung together consecutive 30-point games. Now that he's the clear-cut leader of the team and has broadened latitude for shot-taking, he's no longer holding back.

He may not be established as the putative BITW anytime soon, but he's still coming and will certainly play like it down the lines. :bowdown:

[Kawhi Not?]

That was a monster game by Kawhi. HE just took over....Sacramento has got to get Cousins some help.

[J Shuttlesworth]

So Kawhi averaging 32.5 ppg? :biggums:

[Kawhi Not?]

:cheers: :cheers: :cheers:

[Kawhi]

Loved the atmosphere in the arena.

[TrueBlue89]

So Kawhi averaging 32.5 ppg? :biggums:
And Davis is averaging 50
