He’s a Lebron nut-hugger who’s career rebounding numbers Is more embarrassing than Trez’s. Plus his offensive game is laughable.

I tune out when he’s on. Along with other Lebron minions (Sharpe, Wright).

We might not have choice depending if we’re to try and sell High on him unless he gets his stock up. Selling low could easily be done at any moment imo
Obviously none of want to sell low on him.
Gotta think of it as Half of what we gave up for him was for him , the other half of assets were for kawhi.
So if we got warriors 3rd pick and Minnesota’s likely lottery2021 that’s not completely bad.
Basically 4 late first rounders 2of em ours
2 of em Miami’s , and the 3 pick swaps vrs the warriors 3rd pick and possibly Minnesota’s 1-12 I’d say??
I wish we could of kept shai and drafted porter jr. and signed Jimi and kawhi outright. CANT BELIEVE kawhi didn’t see that opportunity or have some more patience instead of draining our assets for stupid ass PG

I’ve been thinking about that. The guy is not too damn old to improve, even revamp, his game. I think he ‘s got the basic smarts to be a better decision maker, avoid silly fouls and just smarten up his game, defense included. And most of all, I’d like to see PG ACTUALLY ADMIT that his game needs to be upgraded without regard, at all, to what happens to Doc.

I think PG has a ton of raw talent. Maybe a better coach could make him better. Dont’ know. If all he did was shoot open corner 3s, he’d be a terror in the playoffs. The guy’s got a beautiful stroke. Think of beauty, really. I wouldn’t try to get rid of him. Better to upgrade him. Clips mite not have a choice either.

Kawhi wanted to play for him. Kawhi didn’t suddenly turn into trash, contrary to what some are saying in this thread. The failure wasn’t on him, it was systemic. I have confidence that Ballmer and the all-world FO, who are just a little more analytical than angry fans currently deep in their cups, will fix this situation.

But kawhi and Pg both pulled the same move on there franchises spurs/pacers and there respective teams laughed at them and sent them to Toronto and OkC where also kawhi could of easily stayed and never entered free agency, and OG did resign with a team he originally did not want to be traded to in OkC. AD got to go to the lakers where he wanted but I don’t think teams care, they want the most they can get for there superstar if he forces a trade.
And please you gotta agree that bucks are NOT gonna be interested in a 1 year 1/2 year rental of pandemic P for there return on Giannis lol you know what I’m saying boy !

Problem is kawhi and pg13 aren’t steph and Klay in the shooting department
Atleast not in the playoffs they weren’t . Kawhi had one bad game, pandemic Paul shrunk like a first grader getting bullied for his milk money!
Doc is bullheaded
Most coaches make minute by minute/quarter by quarter adjustments
In the playoffs , doc couldn’t even do game by game adjustments. Just drive and kick to guys who hit shots during the season but in the playoffs they all were scared little bitches that froze up
Deer in the headlights shits imo.
I’m not a Bill Simmons fan
But he’s gone on record saying is one the worst coaches of all time . He lost year after with Boston and then when he was gift wrapped Garnett and Allen he miraculously gets one chip ..ONE! What has he done since then …. fail!
Yeah last years team doc gets all the credit. He shouldn’t have !! It was the PLaYERS that all had something to prove!! Rookie shai trying to prove with plenty of minutes available, sham same, bev same, zu something to prove,Lou and Trez were given super long leashes to do what they wanted but towards the end every team has seen our predictable movie especially our second unit. And doc just goes with the same thing this year just like HoW predictable lob fuckin city was, Redick trying to get free on every play to shoot the three, cp3 PnR DJ and Blake
Doc has never been a great coach but the media has made him out to be Phil Jackson or pop .
Nba isn’t even a coach’s league and doc finds way to F us! If we rid doc it will be addition by subtraction I guarantee.
Playoff P definitly needs to get his shit together or needs to be gone
And kawhi can’t load manage anymore
If he does I won’t support him at all. Dude should be recovered by now if not he’s not somebody we want to risk the next 7 years in trusting to be healthy and if it’s just in his head that’s just a loser mentality imo.
We need players to play every game if healthy and build chemistry and try to get the #1 seed
If we had portland Houston we would of been in WCF and playing the lakers.
This team thought they could turn it on or build chemistry at the last minute. F that mentality. Grit and grind my ass
More like prima Donna diva puss mentality . Sorry for the rant guys
