    I guess not being able to stop the ultra quick Danny green for a layup isn't much news when in reality that's the game

    Kawhi has 1 foul in 3 games in San Antonio. That 1 was an offensive foul.

    So, you're saying we're still one or two players away then. How long have we been saying that? lol

    The anger comes from his play in some of the biggest situations. If he can't fix it, we won't win a ship. Unless he becomes the second player on this team. I don't think anyone thinks we would beat GS this year, regardless of how he plays.

    Gordon didn't exactly show up for this game. Wasn't he just talking about how he had something to prove? He didn't prove it tonight.

    I'll play devil's advocate. I think starting Gordon is what made the offense flow and we had a chance till the final 10% of the game. I'm sure you weren't complaining about Gordon starting in game 4.

    It boils down to Harden disappearing when it matters most. He did it multiple times against the Blazers a few years ago. He completely disappeared and sat on the bench in game 6 against the Clips when we were about to be eliminated. He ****ed up against the Warriors in the first game or 2 when he had that costly turnover. And today in the 4th and OT he had multiple chances to seal the deal with Kawhi on the bench.

    It's okay... not everyone can be "Like Mike" or Kobe or Wade even.

    Dude, stop. That's ridiculous. He was dog tired, it was pretty obvious.
