    I really like Leonard.

    Pop really knows how to put players in a position to succeed. Danny Green is another player who is thriving in that system.

    Trading Hill for Leonard is turning out to be an absolute steal for the Spurs.

    There's a reason why Nic has always wanted to go to SA, and it's not all because of TP.

    Terrence Jones = Kawhi Leonard.

    What.. Why? I don't really get the comparison at all.

    Jones is much more of a PF. Leonard isn't a PF at all. I think Jones will be a tweener/stretch 4 in the NBA. Leonard is a defensive specialist. Jones is more of an offensive player. He could never be a starting SF for the Spurs.

    No...

    He's more of a Thad Young type of player.

    I'm talking about potential impact. Wasn't Leonard a big scorer @ SD State? He averaged something like 15/11. I see Jones making a similar transition when he gets to the NBA.

    I just watched the game. This winner of this series, of course, will be the champion. I realized early in the game that the winner of each game in this series will be the home court team. Which means that I realized the Spurs will be the champs.

    I see Jones as a little bit better version of Marvin Williams. On draft express they have his best case as Al Harrington and worst case as Michael Beasley.

    I just hope the Thunder lose the series based on a total BS call, just so I can say, "Tough Shit"

    Every team in the NBA wishes they had a star and leader like this.

    No one's going to beat the Spurs. Too deep, too wise.

    It's funny watching the Thunder and Spurs tonight. The Spurs have guys cutting to the basket and most of the Spurs looks are close to the hoop or wide open shots. The Thunder like to play 1-on-1 basketball.

    Spurs should win this series.

    Spurs are getting every call. Some of the fouls called against the Thunder have been crap. They are giving Manu and Tony every call when they take it to the rim but they arent calling anything when Harden does the same.
