Lotta valid points in this thread with a sprinkle of exaggeration lol..

Kawhi isnt washed. He has another gear he can get to, we seen it and until he shows he can't, I'm fully expecting him to ramp up to that next level in the postseason.......................

.....................but his gear isn't even close to the level my guy can get to, if my guy can still get to that level at his age. All you nikkas know it, so its funny how all summer and after the first game of the year, the season was over before it started and the Clips were gonna destroy the NBA and my guy was finished....

Funny how the narrative of the Anti's has changed, it's all yall nikkas backpedaling and grasping at straws. Murksiderock has said the same shyt the entire time, from the point he missed the playoffs last year, during and after Kawhi's legacy-buildimg playoff run. I told yall dudes to keep the same energy...

Clippers gonna win 60 and be a real problem come Spring. I'm not taking nothing away from them, they have as good a chance to beat the Lakers as anybody...

But if my guy is healthy, really if all things are equal on both sides, I like my guy over yours, I like the Lakers over your team, and I have zero hesitation or doubt, none. And that's with great respect and belief that Kawhi will be at the highest level he can get to...

thank goodness he did not join the lakers

Can you imagine a third option who is a shytty volume shooter with no lateral movement?

.....a third option who does not want to play a third of the games

:dead:
Imagine that mute on the bench after a lob and the entire bench going crazy and he sitting down scratching his braids with his tongue out :scust:

Now y'all cats wanna talk about how Kawhi's defense has taken a drop-off after I've been saying this ever since he took on a #1 option role in 2017. I remember being laughed at when I said he wasn't consistently great cause he had to conserve energy for the offensive end.

:picard:

What I’ve noticed is he isn’t getting the space to operate that he was getting last year or in SA. I’ve watched a lot of Clippers games this year and I think a lot of the issue is Kawhi not giving a shyt yet, it looks like he got even bigger this summer which has affected his lift, but most realistically, Doc has to run some more modern actions to get him the ball in better scoring locations. Instead he has Kawhi getting swarmed and it’s affecting his FG%. Hopefully over time, Doc starts understanding that he has four guys who can be ball handlers in pnr (Pat Bev, PG, Lou and Kawhi), two great rolling big men in Zubac and Montrezl Harrell and spot up shooters to keep in the corners as release valves when the D inevitably collapses. I’d go big more. I’d go small and run some motion offence. I’d try to get out into transition more. I haven’t seen the stats but it looks like the Clips should and could benefit from increasing their pace. But they’re still gelling. Let’s judge this team in March and beyond. I have a feeling Kawhi will be fine.

We’ll see you are right

But I’ll be honest people are as full of shyt about LB as they are Kawhi.

I’m supposed to applaud Lebron for showing the effort he refused to last year because he was clearly “unhappy”? I’m supposed to jump up & down about numbers he gets in his sleep? Numbers that have never during the course of his career told the story of his best or worst games? (Sans 11 Finals) Wasn’t 28 8 8 the theme of last year?

Here’s what we know

Lou & Trez put up a hell of a fight against the mighty Warriors. We have no clue how people react to the spotlight of the playoffs. The Lakers will be relying heavily on a Kyle Kuzma who wasn’t afforded his first taste of playoff experience last year when he should have. I can’t help but think that we’ve been hear before. If Kuz ends up being the new Jordan Clarkson they have no chance.

2 guys are not going to beat The Clippers

I’m really looking forward to seeing how The Lakers look against James this year because it will be revealing

Lakers are indeed the bigger team but will they be able to guard the perimeter?

This will be great

Y’all keep bringing up the lakers. None of these threads have been by one laker fan it’s all bron haters/laker haters that keep making threads. We got our own season thread

But y'all always falling over yourselves to be the first replies to any thread or topic regarding him. Every thread regarding Kawhi is maybe 1-2 Clippers and Raptors fans and the rest is nothing but y'all Lakers stanleys endlessly crying about how he's a mute/bum/trash/overrated/media favorite and that he won't win shyt this year. Where was all this energy back in July when Kawhi was still in the running for your team? When you were begging him to come and save y'all KANG Bron? :sas2:

Oh and you can't go a day without at least 2 people saying fukk Kawhi or PG out the blue in your season thread so not like that's particularly relevant to your point :pachaha:. Why you up in here posting and not over in that thread if this supposedly ain't any concern to you anyway? :jbhmm: If he's so trash, washed, overrated, and irrelevant to y'all then why you stay keeping his name in ya mouths every damn day on here? #1 seed in the West with 2 supposed MVP candidates yet all you wanna talk about are the 2 guys who DIDN'T wanna play for you like some scorned exes. Kawhi got prime real estate in y'all heads and you the ones paying his rent :umad:
