    Leonard is a top 3 player in the league. Role player?

    “This ECF game” means nothing. Sweep incoming.

    I know you are trying to be funny, but I do think Harden's body language and laid back demeanor has an affect on the team.

    Kawhi didn't do everything for the Raptors, but I think you would be a fool to think the younger players aren't looking at Kawhi, scrapping for every point and rebound, Running hard on the break, and not wanting to disappoint this dude.

    Pascal apologized to Kawhi for missing a ft.

    No... he wasn’t matched up on Leonard every possession.

    Also I am a very big believer in Leonard, but top 3 is very debatable.

    Giannis was supposedly the MVP... he didn’t play like it against Toronto.

    I'd rather see if Clark can become a useful player honestly.

    Jj redick could sign with jazz or Lakers.

    6ers have no money.

    I think all things considered I'd easily put Leonard as top 3. I might even take him number 1 if I was starting a team.

    It’s debatable... Harden, Durant, Curry, LeBron, Giannis off the top of my head have arguments too.

    He has neither athleticism nor length nor can rebound.

    Michael Jordan , arguably the greatest player of all time, has stated last year that Kawhi is the best 2 way player in the league.

    Leonard is the best 2 way player in the league. He is the best defender in the NBA... but that doesn’t mean he is the best player in the NBA.

    House disappeared in the playoffs. That's a fact, and he was rightfully benched. Became a liability on both ends at one point.

    Maybe it’s recency bias but I can’t put harden on the same plane as those guys other than giannis.
