Kawhi is so relaxed and calm mentally on the court.. No wasted mental or physical energy.. Every action is optimal.. He is the basketball total package when healthy.
@@Dakiller1243 Torn ACL took away a lot of that faster lateral movement he used to have. That and an increased scoring role, he can't be defending on man like that anymore. His floor vision and positioning is A+ still though, he's excellent at adjusting and bringing help when needed as well at disrupting passing lanes.
@HoodrichMadeThis not necessarily lol. 50/50 game and that saying is just that - a saying. It's a fact most championship teams are top in both offense and defense. Whether a team is more offensive minded or defensive minded is preference due to the coach and personnel but they NEED to be really good in both.
The spin move on Grayson Allen and baseline mid range jumper with the double team hunting him. NOTHIN BORING ABOUT HIS GAME!!! Hope they get far this season
Kawai is total package player his my number one. He's very focus and really smart player. Also I like his attitude quit simple but deadly talented.. clippers Go for the CHAMP.
Midrange shots are like layups to Kawhi. It's more than likely to go in. If the Clips can stay healthy, who knows? PG13, Westbrook and Harden are not known to be dependable when the season's on the line, but the Claw is the steady and seasoned one.

I have always said that Kawhi is a top 5 player in the game, i often get into 🏀 arguments with guys at the gym on a daily...and i will say this, i think that his first couple of seasons playing with Tim Duncan has some input on his overall game, although different positions, i see a lot of Big Tim in his overall game.
The thing with Kawhi, and one of the main reasons he is my favorite active player and why I think is fun to watch, is that he has mastered the fundamentals, an achievement that few players have reached. His post up and mid-range game are nearly perfect he can use simple yet effective things such as quickspins or jumpshots, and he can also use more difficult shots such as his fadeaway, a shot that overall is not that efficient and most of the time it defends it self, but when a player masters it becomes one of the most unstoppable shots. Apart from his offense, his defense and anticipation skills are even better. However his main flaw is clearly his inconsistent career and that he is prompt to injuries, but when healthy and focused he is the best player in the league.
Clippers will win the chip based on Kawhi’s understanding of the game and him mastering the game. Every left to right or right to left jabstep is the same, every pump fake is the same and he uses every fundamental move to get to his spot and score. And it’s impossible to double or trap Kawhi cause hes patient, doesn’t get flustered and always makes the right decision. It’s already unfair for the Clippers to have offensive weapons like PG, Russ, Zubac, Powell, Mann and Harden but u got Kawhi who’s damn near a flawless player, how do you beat that?
@jericcastillo4286 Clippers will be without Zubac. A huge role in the Clippers success this season. But hopefully, Theis and Plumlee can hold their own against the Celtics bigs.
I've seen Kawhi make pkays look so easy that I didn't even know what happened until I watched the replay to see the little moves he does that almost nobody else would even think to do to create those easy shots.
Kawhi's hand size makes it so he doesn't have to be flashy, when he dribbles he has a control that other players can't have. You can't take the ball from him if the ball is anywhere near his hands.
Kahwi was one of them androids that the Red Rebel Army created when they saw how MJ and Kobe dominated the league. He might not have the same flash and athleticism that those two had but they certainly gave kahwi all the fundamentals with that strong built too. Kahwi created in a lab for sure.
kawhi is the best basketball player on the planet. There is a reason, Jerry West went after Kawhi so hard and give up so much, when he's healthy he wins NBA championships more times than most except MJ. Having said that, I believed he would of flourished with Lebron passing him the ball and setting him up, with his and AD injury history it would of been a showtime affair. This seems to be his best year yet with James and Russ. James is a very good point when he wants to and Russ is at his best when he has shooters, the Lakers had no shooters.
Thumbs up for the title alone. Gotta move the 3 line back a foot, at least. And make paint scoring a challenge again; posting up is almost a lost art because dudes just lower their shoulder + euro wherever they like... _and_ get the and1 blocking foul called on the defender anyway. No wonder we're losing to euros now in FIBA and olympics!
#KlawZilla Doing Kawhi things, consistently, efficiently, and pain-free for the first time in a long-azz time. Simply put: ~The~ highest winning% player in NBA history, and a 2-way M O N S T E R. _What it do, bay-bee..._ ****GO CLIPPERS!!!****
teams are literally triple teaming him each time he gets the ball down low and still analysts can't say he's top 5 lmao. he also gets the least fouls called
If Zaza PUNKchulia didn't injure Kawhi back then, and only he wasn't getting injured and sitting out most of the time, Kawhi would've been the best player in the game. He is still one of the best players today, on both sides of the floor take note, but he just couldnt stay healthy to play a full season eversince that series agains GSW.
Kwawhi is just a stonger version of Demar in that he prefers to a deeper post position; i meant that only offensively because Demar is pure garbage on defense. Nonetheless, all the superstars players have amazing fundamentals. Steph, KD, Kyrie, Lebron and definitely Jokic & maybe save for Lebron, all these players have used footwork to master the midrange.
Anyone who thinks Kawhi's game is boring just wants to see a player flexing and mean-mugging. Nothing wrong with that, but I just don't think you like basketball if you don't like watching Leonard play.
Only thing i think he's missing is Jordan's athleticism and layup package, Kobe's quickness and confidence. Dribbling would be a bonus, but he's already good without all of it. I think he could do it, but he started with spurs which i think didn't allow him to grow flashy.
@@aldi9146 Yeah, imagine he pull more tricks, he'll be much lethal. Tho, i think him being less tricky allows him to be straight forward eliminating unnecessary moves, but sometimes trickery breaks defense, so a mix won't harm his game.
Kawhi is my guy and I am not a Lebron fan. Usually you can't speed Kawhi up. He plays at his own pace but I've seen him out of sorts a bit guarded by James.
@@TheStranger513 I'm not trying to insult anyone, because obviously only a crazy person would hate kawhi, right? But I dunno why LBJ locks him up every time they face.

Kawhi’s game should be the blue print for every aspiring wing player
Yeah he's the closest thing we got to Jordan/Kobe in this era
the smarter ones, anyway
Him or kd the way they score is so consistent and unstopabble
ive been waiting for years for tatum to copy that blue print but he wants to be a 6'10 steph smh
Not everyone is as strong or has long hands as him. Paul George despite playing the same role as him plays quite differently.
Kawhi is so relaxed and calm mentally on the court.. No wasted mental or physical energy.. Every action is optimal.. He is the basketball total package when healthy.
Kawhi is the Modern day MJ in terms of skills offensively and defensively period
big facts
He’s like if Pippen grew up watching Bean 😂
@@solemagus4761 Kawhi never been a sidekick. LoL
His footwork is beautiful and I love when he pulls out his classic step-through, defenders always seem so confused.
Kawhi reminds me a lot of MJ and Kobe. Fundamentally sound,dominant and no gimmicks just straight up basketball.
How it should be
it's crazy that the best part of his game is not even his elite offense, but his GOAT level defense.
His defense in 2015-2016 was way better than his defense today. But I think part of it is due to the league being softer so has to dial it back
His defense has always been grear, no year defines. @@Dakiller1243
@@Dakiller1243 Torn ACL took away a lot of that faster lateral movement he used to have. That and an increased scoring role, he can't be defending on man like that anymore.

2016-2017 is possibly the best prototype small forward the game has seen end to end.

Kawhi > Tatum specially in the playoff
True true
it was never a debate
PG clears Tatum, too.
When did Tatum ever 4-streak a #1 seed out of the playoffs with a dude like Reggie Jackson as his next best teammate?
@@shaft9000 facts
-- Poll question: would you take Kawhi (w/ all his injuries but 2 DPOYs and 2 FMVPs) or KD? (1x MVP, 2x FMVPs)
Kahwi was one of them androids that the Red Rebel Army created when they saw how MJ and Kobe dominated the league. He might not have the same flash and athleticism that those two had but they certainly gave kahwi all the fundamentals with that strong built too. Kahwi created in a lab for sure.
but his strength makes him probably the toughest midranger out of all of them.
Kawhi and Prime Tracy Mcgrady are the only two players I seen light you TF up while lookin like they awake but they body asleep😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂
He got it from the Big Fundamental. TD21. Spurs Culture.
Oh yeah I love this breakdown Bro! Especially since Kawhi is my favorite player
appreciate the love my g
He's a clinic. 'Nuff said.

W video
Kawhi Leonard my favorite player in the league since Kobe Bryant 💯🦁🎤
No one calls Kawhi boring, he’s just injury prone. No injuries he could of rivalled LeBron every year
His defense is so crazy. It’s really unbelievable
Thumbs up for the title alone.

Kahwi in other level
He definitely is
0:40 idk bro there something exciting when a fundamental old man strength bust these no defense young blood
Combine kawhi skills and physical gifts + westbrook effort, tenacity and athleticism = michael jordan
kawhi is like the only player that i am entertained by
The klaw is law, In russ we trust, PG it's GG, Fear the beard
Just like the Wizards MJ, still a top 10 player in the league at 38 with exceptional fundamentals
Fundamentals are the gold standard
@@magician_aleks2726 absolutely!!
lots of his jumper remind me of kobe, they both love spin move.
Where do you get your b roll for your videos?
Kawhi is the best player for me! He can do both sides offense and defense
Whats with his thumbnail shoulderbones???
Kawhi is the most underrated player of all time. Dude is top 5 in the league when healthy and can literally do it all.
he's good at basketball
players don’t understand how effective this is. MJ, kobe, Kawhi. Man if i was 6’6-6’7 i’d put in hours on the middy
I hope kawhi Leonard become the regular season and finals mvp
Kawhi is Michael Jordan with less vertical he is that good

low key version of MJ
Just beat tatum by 20at home context:they’re 20-1 at home and that one loss was without tatum and tingus pingus
