Give him time, he hasn't played since 2013.

As a dyed in the wool Kawhi stan I feel bad for him. Guy had top 20 all time potential but his body is going to give out on him and prevent him reaching his potential.

The sooner he's out of the league, the sooner I can stop misspelling Khawi. Kahwi? Kawhi. Always the third try - just like plugging in a USB cord.

He's weird and I like him, I don't actually want him out of the league.

I found it on Reddit but Kawhestionable is the most underrated nba insult nickname.

The Knicks might be like the 7th-9th (guessing) best team in the east and they're pretty good I think.

Their defensive effort looks noticeably improved from last season.

Hopefully they can hold on to beat the Cavs, never too early for us to get some cushion for the #1 seed....lol.

The Knicks did not hold on

As soon as we said some good things about them they fell apart down the stretch.

If the Warriors are going to have a dysfunctional season, I’m here for it

He's pouring it on but Luka is doing way too much heavy lifting for the Mavs.

That team is not good and I think we'll see it this year. It's Luka and a bunch of bench or slot-in role players; not even a third guy on a good team, aside from maybe Dinwiddie when he's playing well (and he's all over the place). The only good guys they have are on the wrong side of their primes. And they'll be disillusioned with Wood by end of the season just like the first seven teams he was on.

They've built around him really poorly. They won too fast.

It just doesn't seem physically sustainable across a season, let alone across multiple seasons. Dude is only 23 and I feel like his body must have the wear of about a 26 year old.

It’s laughable they thought they could replace someone of Brunson’s quality with Christian Wood. They’re really missing the second point of attack Brunson offered.

And Brunson wanted to be there, too. They screwed that up so badly.

Plus, the Mavs have one of the most innovative, forward-thinking, flexible coaches in the league.

Dallas has been awesome when Wood is on the floor. However, he's somehow only playing 26 minutes a game, and they're a loser in the 22 minutes he sits.

I think what is really hurting them this year is they're still coached by Kidd.
