Imagine Leonard playing for Lue?
kd destroyed kawhi on both ends of the floor in the playoffs last yearBron's a better passer
Kawhi is a better defender
The gap between the two is about even...
Nobody is better than Bane Bron that destroyed the warriors on both ends of the court the last 3 games of the finals...
But...Bane Bron is what it is going to take to out duel Kawhi now...regular season bron is not good enough...regular season bron got 40 dropped on him in one game and got his team destroyed in the second game...and playoff lebron is not good enough...kawhi sent playoff lebron running back to cleveland years ago...
Bron is still number one...but he got to take the whole vat of venom right before game time and hope that shyt last 48 minutes...
The real funny part about this is how as soon as Kawhi started going at KD neck on the court that nikka jumped ship quick to a better team...he didn't want any parts of battling Kawhi dolo for the next 5 to 7 years

Is that Trick Daddy?alright
Lets put lebron on the spurs and kawaii on the cavs
which ones winning the title this year :MjgrinAnime:
LeBron James wasn't Paul George's primary defender, that was J.R. Smith. But when LeBron was put in situations where he had to guard George, he did a substantial job. Through video tracking I accumulated George's FG/FGA - TO(s) when guarded by LeBron and here's what I got:
Game 1 - 2/5 (40%), 1 turnover
Game 2 - 2/3 (66%), 2 turnovers
Game 3 - 3/8 (37%)
Game 4 - 1/4 (25%) 1 turnover
TOTAL: 8/20 (40%), 4 turnovers
