Kawhi is going to shut down both these clowns in the playoffs...yet again. Neither Lebron, nor Giannis want another piece of Kawhi in the post season.
Yup troublemaker we’ve Chandler/ Harty not exactly Bron or AD lol We’ve legit got no shot against LAL, LAC, or the Bucks, not happening in this lifetime !
Kawhis been good in playoffs but he’s always had a loaded team that allows him to conserve his energy for high leverage moments that most stars don’t have the luxury of having. Hes had plenty of help in his finals runs unlike lebron who was the underdog a few times. Agree his team should be favored yet again. Clippers are 10 deep. Their top 8 guys can be argued to be better/more complete than anyone on the rockets minus Russ and harden.
My gut feeling was that when we traded capela we were swinging for the fences. This years rockets team doesn’t have the discipline to beat a lakers/clippers/bucks team in a 7 game series. Unless something changes, I can’t see how this small ball gimmick doesn’t get exposed
Lebron on some expensive **** that won’t show up in tests and won’t harm his body. Dude definitely putting something into his body to give him and edge.
nothing put in your body is untraceable. It will elevate something an that accounts for further evaluations. Nba picks who gets these test. Crazy that his vertical and speed increased in this one game
Yeah maybe. I’d rather they test Giannis and ruin his reputation though. Any one who can expose that freak like lebron did today is OK in my book
Kawhi has shut Lebron down in playoffs, not just in key moments. but for large parts of the game. Lebron knows this and it shows in his game. He wants to avoid Kawhi. Kawhi also locked up Giannis in playoffs last season. Both of those series will be decided mainly by the fact that Kawhi can lock them up and disrupt their main facilitator. Lebron better start taking some extra "stuff" when going up against kawhi, and you know he will.
He’s an amazing defender when he commits no doubt. But he has multiple other guys on his teams that can run the offense better than him that allows him to have a laser like focus in shutting down the opposing teams best wing player. Brons capable of approximating kawhis role on defense if he could load manage on offense but Kawhi can’t come close to the all around playmaking lebron brings to his teams. Overall a load managed bron is a much more complete player even out of his prime.
Lebron is not beating Kawhi's one on one defense on him in a 7 game series unless he abuses substance or magically develops a reliable jumper all of a sudden.
Lou is the best go to option for clippers in close games. Dude can score in so many ways. Then u factor in 2 way guys like Pg, Kawhi and to a lesser extent Morris and Beverly (can shoot 3s) and they got the best closing lineup by far on paper.
He’s one of the best lebron stoppers no doubt. But bron can still play make and find open guys. On the other end all his energy spent on defense will make it easier for lebron(also good defender when he tries) to stop Kawhi from scoring At the moment they are close in terms of what they bring. Kawhi may be a bit more clutch but we’ll see in the playoffs. Over the long term kawhi ain’t even on the same universe as bron all time
