i remember Kawhi becoming more of a ballhandler with the Raptors. In that Milwaukee series, Kawhi had a couple near triple doubles in wins. Kawhi's unreal talented. He wins games with defense, scoring, catalyzing the offense, rebounding... His career trajectory, of figuring out how to use all that talent, step by step, is really inspiring. If he was blessed with better health, he might have been more recognized as the best in the game for a while. It seemed like in 2019 that's what he was, after that run.
I love how DG Put BD on here Nothing but love for the OG And when me and my son play 2k blacktop I pick baron Davis and he be hella mad cuz he say " dad who is this small Person dunking on everything" 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Facts! I’m a huge Mavs fan & got love for GSW. I’ve always wanted either of those teams to go after Norman Powell, but they just won’t & its so frustrating cause dude is a certified BUCKET! 🗣️
@@demarcdegasol Go learn manners. I have live in the city of Toronto. An OG ( 1995) Raps fan. Infact, Norm was very hot & cold with his shooting so if he was a good defender NN or Casey would have played him more. Pascal, Fred & OG & Ibaka were the defenders on the bench mob. The best bench in the league from 2017-2019.
we are still missing you Norm, it was fun while it lasted and i remember being pissed when you split and i still am. enjoyed you as a Raptor and wish you nothing but the best for your future
Happy to see Norm finally get his shot as 1st or 2nd option on any given night and showing what he can really do, he's delivering too. Still pissed my Raps traded him.
We have Jaboke Walter. He projects to be better thsn Norm offensively & he is alreadyva better defender. Sometimes you have to lose to win again. Raps is rebuilding with the focus on getting a 2nd chip. Yoy have to understand when the trade was made for Trent Masai saw that he could be a upgrade b/c of his upsides but it didn't pan out. With the new CBA I am fine w/ what Masai & Bolby doing. Asset acquisition & see who fits with Scottie while having few vets on the team b/c young guys need direction.
@mollyweir9350 Saying he's a better defender than Norm is a stretch, especially when Norm isn't ask to do as much on the offensive end. But I hear you though, the time lines didn't make sense for the amount money he could command. I'm just someone that is of the mindset that Norm was ready for a bigger role, and would have been worth the money, especially if we were gonna move on Freddy and Siakam eventually, he would make a great Vet on the team. But for Norm staying with us didn't make sense either, may as well go somewhere where he could compete.
Projects to be better than norm offensively? He doesn’t have the speed and athleticism of norm nor does he have the finishing ability inside. It’s crazy how everyone keeps trying to downplay norm. When we traded thorn for Trent everyone was saying Trent was projected to be better than norm too and look at them now. Norm is a beast give him his fucking credit
Always said it since spurs, kawhi healthy is probably the best player in the league. He’ll give you 30 a night plus all the sneaky stats and then still make your best player have a slow night.
My exact thoughts. He's no.1 when healthy. Has given it to Luka many times in the playoffs. He has always dominated giannis. Embiid is an emotional baby at the end of the day. Jokic is the only player where it's close - but in tight moments jokic likes to flop and get handed the glory. Kawhi will go all the way
@@mattoreilly5006 as a raps fan we saw kawhi on a mission and holy shit was there no getting in the way. It’s just the fact of the two way play being so good on defence and still giving your favourite team or player 30.
Dray, BD do yall think if the all star game consisted of top 12 offensive players and top 12 defensive players that it would be more appealing to viewers, and would it be more competitive
Listen. If you can afford to wear a brand new pair of shoes every single day, and those shoes come with clean, sufficient padding on the inside, do you really need socks? Now if he’s wearing the same shoes day after day after day, that’s another story.
That Raptors championship team was really good. Look at all the underrated players on that team.
The first championship is always the best one. Norman Powell is a Raptor for life!
Raptors nation still loves Norm Powell
Obviously

Norm Powell is 1st team all underrated, man is one of the best bucket getters in the league
FACTS!
Norm Powell will always be a champion here in Canada.

😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Norman is a DAWG. He's one of them dudes you hate to play against, but would love on your team.

Powell is a certified BUCKET
Miss him on the raptors more than the man who brought us the chip himself love Norman
Draymond doesn't like it, but the Raps were 6-2 vs the Warriors in the 2019 season. They dominated them whether they were healthy or not.
Not to mention missing OG due to appendicitis. Freak injury at the worst time. I think he would have been better than Danny Green out there
yessir
Norm was the difference maker in multiple playoff series for the Raps. Great two way player who is only now getting his due.
Norm a 2 way player? Stop it. In fact, this yr is best D Norm has played in his entire time in the league.
@@mollyweir9350u dont watch the raps fam stfd

I never seen Norman & 21 in the same building 🤷🏽♂️
How did we give our Norm away for Gary Trent
Norman and Drummond gotta be long lost brothers or something 😂😂😂
raptora fan here, reapect draymond for still being so mad. you can tell why hes won so much
True that. Real competitor. Lowkey the driving force for the dubs. Mentality wise
Khawai on the 5 year retirement tour
Damn Raptors actually kinda lost the Norm for Gary trade long term when we can look back now...
NORMAN POWELL IS A CERTIFIED BUCKET! 🗣️🪣
I’m a Mavs fan & got love for GSW and I’ve always wanted either team to go get this dude bro.

Facts. Lukas all smiles and giggles vs everyone. When kawhis there, there is no smiling
What happened to Powells face he looks like 21 savage
Think it was an elbow
drake was right. This is a tough listen 😂
😂
lil uzi powell
Dray, BD do yall think if the all star game consisted of top 12 offensive players and top 12 defensive players that it would be more appealing to viewers, and would it be more competitive
What is the kawhism that baron davis is talking about
Kawhi is done but he had a HOF run 🏆
Kawai the only Hall of Famer to refuse to make a speech.
3:35 - And I thought Minks was just being funny in those videos....xD
