Eric Gordon has averaged 20+ a game as the #1 option and Luol has put up respectable scoring numbers while being a versatile defender his entire career though :dahell:
All you need is one team that needs Kawhi to give him an offer they know the Spurs won't match. Look at what Asik and Lin got for their production. Kawhi is a 2 way player that's only getting better, if he shines against Lebron in the finals he's getting paid this summer either by the Spurs or next summer by another team.

even if kaawhi didnt develop like he has, he cost 6 million dollars less than george hill

id rather run lance at pg than hill

lance and paul george have been better in the nba than expected so we cant assume kawhi would be a bum

The Truth
larry bird is a fukkin horrible gm, but gets a pass for obvious reasons :mjpls:

- team has had no bench for the past 3 years
- george hill trade - horrible
- scola trade - horrible.. traded away plumlee - couldve been a solid bench player, green - breakout year, you telling me these guys couldntve played 10-15 mins a night... AND THEY THREW IN A FIRST ROUND PICK :bryan:

granger trade - horrible, needed his leadership when things fell apart

team was on the cusp on the nba finals, and bird did nothing to improve the team :pacspit:
I agree with the Granger and Scola trades... Those were mind-numbingly stupid especially in hindsight. Bench definitely hurt them in the playoffs... Especially Scola

Now who else wanna fukk with Hollywood Court?
George Hill was beast in San Antonio. Indiana just sucks at using their players to their best abilities.




The Spurs felt it was easy to replace what Hill brought to the table and they were right, they found it in Belli, Green, Mills and Joseph. What Leonard does though is much harder to find, don't think it's Indiana's fault Hill isn't that great, he's just a limited player.

Kawhi would be good wherever he goes, but the Spurs assistant coach is a master when it comes to improving jumpers.

lets be real. who's to say kawhi leonard would have developed to half the player he currently is...if developed by the pacers staff instead of the much superior spurs staff?
you can't just assume he'd be the same player or have the same role.

EXACTLY. NOBODY knew how good Leonard would become and it wasn't as if Hill was some scrub when he player with us either

I don't even think kawhi leonard is even that good, once duncan and pop retires after this season it'll be interesting to see his development. he's a #3 option at best

Nah Indiana drafted him.
indiana most likely drafted him for the spurs

Considering they traded an overpaid bench player for him they made out well, I don't think he'll be a superstar but with more touches and a more uptempo team he could post Shawn Marion type numbers.

Bruh, people seem to forget Leonard dropped in the draft. Everyone thought he would be a top 7 pick and he slid on draft day. So it's not like he came out of nowhere. Leonard and Biyombo were the 2 most hyped players in that draft besides Kyrie and Kanter.
