Imagine how many he could get if he took it out

41 with 90% of his fingers is 45 per 100% fingers.

Hall of famer first ballot

Have you tried scoring more than 82 points?

He hit so many tough shots too. Hand in his face, off the spin, fadeaway, drives, layups, didn’t matter.  

The defense on him was actually good. Didn’t matter. 

Maybe the Timberwolves did need Giannis

exactly how it felt when he put up 55 against us

I’ve been there before

¹⁴⁄₃₀?

how is 14-30 automatic? lol

Not as bad as him having 26 in a quarter while the whole pistons team had 27

It would be extremely funny if Kawhi got reliably healthy only after the Clipper traded away the rest of the team and embroiled in a cap circumvention screen.

For real. I didn’t understand the initial snub, playing really well (lately v earlier in the season), overall good numbers, and his home court ntm the first ASG in the dome. Glad he got it in the end, but still.

The best reluctant All-Star we got!

Crazy decision, my (potentially) unpopular opinion is that he should be seriously be in the MVP conversation, although I guess with the clippers not being contenders he has no chance.

Who do u kick out of the top 5 tho. Wemby? Luka?

Because he’s not available when needed

How is the defense side?

It’s wild to me how everyone forgets Kawhi. He gets injured and goes away for awhile and then when he comes back everyone’s shocked at how good he is. Like duhhh!! When he’s healthy he’s great

Kawhi is top 3 this season tho. What is a top 5 compared to a top 3?

I feel like Shai, Jokic, Luka, Giannis is a pretty clear top 4 (no order) and to me Wemby is the obvious 5th. Ant and Kawhi are both in that 6-10 range.

not blowing it up. what are y’all gonna say if they sign him to an extenstion this summer

Its what he deserves, its not like he cares about anything besides money. He’s probably just playing for more side deals from balmer

Yeah they probably aspired to be more, but that post asg penalty is going to make this a pointless season anyway

Agreed

That was exactly my thought! Like he’s the only adult on the court.

There is an aspect to guys who are unbothered that is a 12 on the cool scale. Kawhi has it. Jokic has it. KD has it. Klay used to have it. Duncan had it

Just so completely comfortable that the game is being processed so rapidly that it looks slow to them

He’s gotta stay healthy the rest of the year, basically.

You mean like in round 1 last year lol?

The org wanted to get younger, on the flip side they can play much faster now and YKN can finally develop as their rookie big rather than playing spot minutes with Zu and Lopez getting majority of the time

I knows he’s got 2 rings and all but without having any MVPs, to me he’s the biggest what if. When he’s healthy*, he’s legit the 2nd best player (after LeBron) I’ve watched in the last decade.

If he stays healthy, I put him anywhere in the Top 3. Idk how many times I’ve said that throughout the years. We lost so much great basketball due to injuries

hoe efficient

All that tree planting

If you are a basketball fan, he is beautiful to watch. There is really nothing else to say.

An absolute marvel. An artist.

I’ve been crying for more attention to the art of the game instead of statistics and “efficiency.”

This dude is a master. Period.

And there is no offensive talent that is more ridiculous than Kawhi.

that may happen but this is about winning, making the playoffs and not giving OKC a good pick…I mean “showcasing”? Who else are we gonna give the ball to? LOL

And he’s not 10.

I think they’re checking to see whether he actually did. Investigation underway and if they find anything conclusive, then decision will be made post all star break

They didn’t want you to witness that beat down

It is.

Being healthy is important.

Skill wise, probably the best 3 in the league.

Yes

clippers winning streak started and continued for awhile when Zu was injured, and Garland + Mathurin is a good trade off of younger players with upside for Harden. Don’t think they are giving up this season🤔

The only understanding ties to the Kawhi situation

Either they have a strong enough indication that he’s going to get suspended so the seasons a wash and they may as well move assets to get picks and get younger or they realized the experiment is over anyways due to how bad they started and how hard it will be to climb back up just to get an 8 seed and play OKC or Denver

That Oklahoma education not doing you any favors I see lmao

Kawhi was already named to the ASG before Sengun was, plus they’re on opposite teams so they were never going to take the same spot to begin with

Just take your Chet pity all-star nod and be thankful 

Let’s see Castle do it in Kawhi’s place on this squad
