Kawhi chose to play for a cursed franchise in a city where he has no respect to play with Pandemic P

[The_Third_Man]

people saying "Kawhi should've stayed with the Raptors or signed with the Lakers", what about JUST PLAY BETTER? you know since he's supposedly the best player in the world?

even when he gets clowned, somehow someway this dude gets a pass.

Because he ain’t THAT fr

I was sayin it then, on the Lakers he can stick to his role and not worry about leading or playmaking and then still have a superstar sidekick after Bron retires. Or he could go back to a team that compliments his talents in a more winnable conference.

Instead he decided to bet on himself and crapped out. Now the Warriors are back next season and other West teams will improve and he’ll still be in Bron’s shadow in his own home. peg leg in the first year of his downfall....

Here's the problem, the majority of these players aren't great. Many of these players are propped up for the sake of LeBron. Namely Paul George and to an extent Kawhi. Kawhi did win a title as the sole "superstar" against the "juggernaut" Warriors, something LeBron was incapable of doing.

Yup. I saw this article get posted on Twitter a lot. Jimmy Butler is closer to Kawhi Leonard than we realize.

Kawhi Leonard is Not Much Better Than Jimmy Butler

I've told people since Kawhi became a diva in SA if the Spurs didn't deal Hill to the Pacers to get him he'd have the same career arc as Jimmy Butler, he'd improve but not nearly as quickly due to poor environment team wise

Did he? Or did he win against a Warriors team that was clearly tired and worn out from many title runs? Maybe the ball bounces in the opposite direction and he's bounced in the 2nd round the year before? Maybe him and his peg leg got carried by Lowry and nem just like Tim and nem did before. Cuz now when he got his own shyt fr he didn't just look bad he flat out ghosted.....

When the going got tough Ricky ran

Seems like once the smoke and mirrors cleared he's a pretty good player that benefited from exceptional situations. You can tell too, seeing as how he ran away from the grind so much and passed that trait on to his team.....but hey, he's home. That's what he always wanted

Lebron beat a record setting warriors team in historic fashion. Kawhi beat a warriors team with their 1st and 3rd best player injured

LeBron along with Kyrie Irving & Kevin Love. Kawhi beat GS with their best and 2nd best player playing. Kevin Durant wasn;t needed remember? And Draymond Green is a HOFer

Man "Playoff Memphis Bleek" got me dying.

They said Kawhi was already better than Kobe. But when Kobe went 6-24 his team won and he was on the boards. The Boardman went 6-22 and choked.

Not ONE free throw attempt

You missed the part with Klay Thompson and Kevin fukkin Durant being hurt

Instead he decided to bet on himself

Scared Money Don’t Make No Money

The only thing he’s guilty of is playing like shyt for a series

Be another legend on a franchise full of them?

Save the worst franchise in sports and be immortal?

It was better for the league he chose the way he did and even for nikkax like you. Oh Happy Day right?

Bad bets don’t make money neither

On a franchise full of legends would suggest that he would then be among the legends of legends and raise his profile and legacy stock.

On the other hand, saving the WOAT franchise is a bad gamble and now it’s been proven. It’s even lowered his standards to a choke artist and playoff ghost.

But you right, it is better. peg leg wasn’t GOAT franchise material after all. He’s right where he belongs.....
