    Apparently Kawhi is the only thing separating the Spurs roster from Sacramento. You learn new stupid things every day with Chuck and Shaq around xD

    There's a difference between being a good shooter and taking open threes , and throwing it up everytime you get the ball . I think he's trending a bit towards the latter , which is OK if he's in a hot streak .

    But some of the shots he's taken weren't particularly good shots . That's what I mean

    That's why he was/is a star. You could argue that at one point he was a legit superstar.

    OK. We have a 16 point lead at half time & TNT just showered us with praise. o_O Don't get over confident!! Remember, we are playing POP in San Antonio. This game IS NOT over!

    He definitely had the potential. He has a better NBA body due to athleticism. Played pretty damn good defense as well as great offense.
    Ginobili was better in his 3rd option role than Harden in 2012 at his best. In 2005, Ginobili was the Spurs best offensive player and destroyed great defenses en route to a title.

    His problem was he never had the durability, and obviously the hunger to be a #1 elsewhere.


    Very similar players though IMO. Probably same talent level.

    Anyway, Harden is an iron man and is probably gonna be a legendary franchise cornerstone in the SW division like Dirk, Hakeem, and Duncan.

    He'll be much "greater" than Manu all-time, for sure.

    Fair enough, I think it's that his minutes have gone down so much he's trying to take full advantage of this new PT!
