The only way I'd be comfortable with dealing Kyle would if we wanted to go chase another ring, which would be the case to go reunite with Kawhi.
alas, the clippers have literally 0 interesting assets.

Pascal's "motor" wasn't evident in the entire bubble. He used to outrun everybody including regular leak out home runs from Lowry. He just didn't looked any faster than anyone lately, even against Brooklyn

One challenge for Pascal is you can beat guys down the floor in the middle of February, but that advantage dries up when everybody's busting their asses in the playoffs. Not totally gone because he is fast for his size but still, won't quite be the same."We're playing in a building." -- Kawhi Leonard

Yeah and I think that goes back to lack of conditioning. He obviously wasn't keeping in shape during the hiatus. And the mini-camp they had when they all came back wasn't enough for him to get his motor back. I'm guessing the coaching staff hoped he'd get it back naturally through just playing games. But it never happened.Mamba Mentality

It was the whole team. Started playing just in the half court while other team's seemed to be getting more run outs and alley-oops. And dunks and put backs for that matter
Started to look alarmingly more like the old Lowry and DeRozan walk-it-up the floor days....
Remember Nurse always yelling at guys to press and run the floor? Not so much recently

So he was out of shape? what the hell did he do during the hiatus?
to S.R.'s point above, teams focus on taking away your strengths in the playoffs. boston has the best transition D in the league. i would attribute the lack of getting out on transition to that, not to his conditioning.

I think he was entirely out of sorts in terms of shooting and decision making, and that wasn't going to be fixed until he got a chance to take a step back and get some practice in (i.e. he wasn't going to just figure it out as we went along). He's a rhythm guy, and he'll come back a hell of a lot better next year, I'm sure of that. There's no reason to think he can't play the way he did to start the season in the playoffs.
