you say that with so much confidence. if he isnt, which that is debatable....then you only have 4 more guys who could seriously make that claim with all things being considered. Bron, AD, Klay, or RWB. in no particular order. Bron (recently) and RWB are not as good as the other 3 defensively but are so much better offensively scoring and distributing. as far as consistency on both ends, I gotta give it to Kawhi.
I'd probably switch out Russ and replace him with PG if we're talking 2-way players.

Greg Oden retired y'all .
why did the warrior let speights go? He's just what the clippers need off the bench when j crossover is shooting 4-15 on some nights.
15 minutes and 16 points.
15 minutes and 16 points.
the clippers bench has been so garbage for so long that a 9th/10th man on a contender can look like a decent role player for them

The nba app is so trash. It crashes every damn time. Doesn't save my login info on the opening screen. It sucks

Speights is cool but honestly I think they'll miss Cole. They have no rim protection in the 2nd unit. Speights can score but you need a back up center for DJ when he's in foul trouble or just can't hit FTs
I think we've been in it since '07-08.

I do say it
Lebron is by far the better playmaker, scorer, distributor and all around game manager.
You guys ready to crown Kawhi Leonard the best two way player based on what? 2 regular season games at the start of the season?
What about his last two playoff runs where he was very pedestrian? We conveniently gonna ignore those.
Kevin Durant straight up outplayed him in that last playoff series and the Thunder were heavy underdogs to the Spurs.
If you want to be credibly called the best two way player you have to do it for a while...and not even just a season...

The Clippers should have let Jamal Crawford go....and frankly giving him heavy minutes during the playoffs is a mistake
I agree thunder got in our ass and Durant outplayed him
But who did Durant guard besides kawhi who did russ guard besides non shooting green and Parker
We had kawhi guard both these elite players back and forth and still put up solid numbers breh ran out of gas had no damn help
Green was ghost
Parker was ghost
Lma was ghost after 2 great games
Ain't shyt he could do breh that simple

Man it aint even me saying that dude is mediocre
I think he is a great player and may end up being one of the top two small forwards in the NBA when Lebron declines in 2-3 years
All I am saying is that if you are being claimed as the best two way player in the game you have to get held to the same standards as the Lebrons, Durants, and other franchise players in the league
Lebron brought it in tremendous ways on both ends of the ball in the last finals. He had no choice.
I do agree with you about LMA tho.....I think he is prone to fade..just the way it is
