Sh*t must be real if you took a shot at Kawhi :lupe:
It is what it is at this point. Also wouldn't be surprised if they're pumping this no timetable shyt so they don't get asked about it every week. Kawhi can't be the focal point of this team anything we get from him is a bonus. I don't care that we paid him because we don't have our picks anyway.

Kind of a big picture thing but when you think about any of the people rumored Kawhi wanted to bring; KD, Butler, Kyrie, PG -- they all have injury history. Idk if SGA makes the same kind of leap with Doc.

Should we have taken a hardline with Kawhi? We were pot committed at that point. The issue was OKC was able to fukk us because they knew Kawhi needed pg. Front office should have told Kawhi to kick rocks or that they can't get the deal done. He wasn't going to run and be a third wheel on the Lakers. I say that's what they should have done but again they had spent so much time and theyre cooked as far as having a foot print if they dont end up with him. Also the team hasn't proven they're good enough at drafting to cry over those picks (still salty they didn't pick maga Porter Jr).

I'm higjf out of my mind and rambling. I'm glad to root for a scrappy version of the team again

Needed that win tonight. Up 11 with three and a half to go in the 4th, then the Suns with a 11-0 run killed us. Defense was stellar. Harden came alive in the 3rd, Zu in he 4th. Coffey and DJJ balled out. KPJ was bad. Lue can't do the 10 game sample size this season. Hopefully Jordan Miller gets some minutes soon. Good first game for Kai. Norm and Mann were alright. Who's going to step up as the 2nd-3rd scorer is the question for any type of success this season. Good crowd. Not a bad seat in the house. @Denver up next :francis:

Kawhi will NEVER be healthy.

That ship has sailed.

Harden ball it is, which will likely lead to a play in spot, nothing more.
Problem is Harden will be gassed by late November if he has to have the workload like he had tonight on a nightly basis. Need another playmaker badly. Gonna have to pull the trigger on Jordan Miller eventually to see if he's legit and can contribute.

Nope, no they don't.

Clippers will be JUUUUUUSSSST fine with only harden as the ball dominant player.
They traded for him, and gave him an extension

Playing Harden ball with an OLD Harden is Exactly what they deserve.













This organization FUKKED UP enormously last year.

Happy with the effort. Wish we could have won but we're going to need someone to step up to help Harden out.

Man I tried to erase "the trade" from my mind over the last couple of years, but when Kawhi was sent home from Team USA -which we already knew he wouldn't be ready to start the season even tho they barely announced this last week- man "the trade" came flooding back into my memory all over again. To think at one point we had SGA, all of our picks, and open cap space is utterly mind blowing. :why: But oh well, as they say, it is what it is.

I believe they're going to hold on to Bones at least until they figure out if KPJ is getting a suspension or not. He might back up Harden as we need scoring in the worst way possible. I'm giving KPJ some time, but he has to play better than he did last night. As for Mann, I don't know what to say about him at this point. He's the team spokesmen for off court activities but the thing is its redundant to have him and Coffey. I think Jordan Miller is better than both of them.
