@@ShaadsComicsandBeersYeah I’m a huge Kawhi fan and was furious at Zaza cause I legit think Kawhi was the best player on the planet and would have beat GSW that year but then Bowen comes to mind and the “karma” factor
@davis2k1234 I'm glad it does. You're a real one. I personally didn't like that it happened to Kawhi because I liked him too and that Warriors/Spurs WCF was really the only series I was looking forward to.
2021 was legit the year where Clippers should have won it all and pretty much cemented Kawhi in probably top 20-15 and but he injured his ACL and pretty much killed the rest of his career
@@nomercyinc6783they have the single most advanced and state of the art stadium in the entire league and they still can't fill it.

Yea I'm not a fan of the narrative Kawhi was robbed of his legacy. Going to LA and load management did that to himself. Injuries are just the tip of the iceberg.
@@laurocoman I disagree, that raptors ring is the stuff of legend and if he stayed in San Antonio he would have got the system player tax, same thing people do with tim duncan.
Something underrated about Kawhi's Legacy is that he's the ONLY player in the 2010s (and probably only player period maybe besides Magic Johnson in the 80s idr) to stop 2 SEPARATE 3 peats. Stopped the Big 3 Miami Heat in 2014 and then the Dynasty warriors in 2019. The 2010s as a decade of basketball can't be mentioned without Kawhi Leonard, and that can never be taken away from him. Also the man has the single most memeable laugh in history, that shit gets put in every single edit post 2019.
Kawhi is the true essence of "you had to be there". The 2019 Kawhi run was insane to watch. I hope recency bias doesn't tarnish his legacy as one of the best two-way players in NBA history
Kawhi is my favorite player OAT. I even have his jersey from his Spurs days. It's just a shame that injuries have derailed his career to this degree since 2019 😭
Low key a somewhat better comparison would be Bill Walton, in his like 3ish healthy seasons he won 2 Championships, a Finals MVP and a regular season MVP. Also while I condemn what Zaza did it’s kinda ironic and a bit of karma to Gregg Popovich considering Bruce Bowen did that foot in the jumpshot players landing space move a ton during the Spurs 2000s title runs.
I’ve had Kawhi on my fantasy team the whole season. If the Synthetic sports curse IS real I have a chance to win despite Chet and Luka being injured as Kawhi will then have a legacy defining run this year. … who am I kidding this is gonna be the one time it fails knowing my luck
Kawhi has a complicated legacy Because WHEN he plays then he is the best player in the league that can lead your team to a ring but after that ACL tear with clippers made Kawhi a inconsistent player He has two rings but he never plays
Pachulia INTENTIONALLY injuring Kawhi that WCF Game 1 should be a crime. Dude has always been a dirty player because that was his only job on the court.
This saga also completely screwed over defenses cause it created the landing space foul 70 years of basketball and everythings good, then Zaza went and completely messed it up for everyone
If, and I mean IF, Kawhi never got hurt like ever, or even if he goes to Toronto and becomes fully healthy there, I firmly believe he could’ve entered top 10 conversations, he likely would’ve eventually won an MVP and maybe another DPOY, I believe if he stayed in San Antonio or Toronto he would’ve won more rings maybe just 3 instead of 2 but still
There are plenty of players who play in the mj Kobe vein, and play a lot like kawhi and it's growing, because defense is on the rise. Most of the competitive young teams are much better defenders and three level scorers than even just this last group of guys in jokic luka embiid's "era" they are already being pushed down the playoff ladder. And none of these young teams are even in their primes yet except OKC who has some guys who are just starting their primes.
As a general rule I don’t like “what if” arguments, but in this case I don’t think I’ve ever been more convinced that a player would perform to their projected peak. I wouldn’t like to guess titles or MVP’s, but as a player there is no doubt that Kawhi would have reached the level we all expected of him. Shame.
D rose wishes he was as lucky as kawhi Granted drose is one of the most unlucky what if Kawhi overall didn't get ruined too much by injuries compared to other people
If Kawhi would lead Spurs to a win against the Warriors and the win the final vs Cavs that would completely change the narrative around the Warriors, LeBron and Kawhi.
If he stayed with the Raptors for the 2020 season at worst they make the NBA Finals again. I knew it was a mistake for him to leave and i definitely knew he was smoking crack demanding to be partnered with Wayoff P
@@notmytruthTHEtruth Originally, he wanted to go home to California and he didn't want to stay in Toronto. Not to mention, he strong-armed the Clippers into trading for Paul George or he wouldn't go there.
@@M_11_m41n and picking Paul George was a massive mistake. He's a bad GM just like LeBron apparently but LeBron managed to get 4 instead of 2 championships.
@@RecursesKD's not making things difficult for Giannis in 2019. KD will never be the defender that Kawhi was in 2019. Kawhi carried that Raptors squad in 2019 on both ends of the city, something that KD has never done at any point. While KD is clearly the better offensive player than Kawhi, Kawhi is clearly the better defender and his offensive game isn't that much inferior. So no, Kawhi's 2019 run isn't overrated.
Yup, aside from the 3-1, which was a full team collapse really as Kawhi still played well until game 7- he's been great in the regular season and phenomenal in the playoffs.. for the brief moments we've seen him :/
You guys got to make a video on the Cavs this year, like the opposite of the Warriors video. They’re destroying just about every team they play and it seems like nobody is talking about it
That cheap shot of Zaza ironically was first done by Bruce Bowen a player of the Spurs and coach Pop always defends Bruce by saying they are just frustrated of being defended by Bruce so on and so forth but when Zaza did that to Kawhi coach Pop was furious saying that move is very dangerous, doesnt belong in the league so on and so on.. I guess he got a taste of his own medicine right there
Kawhi be milking those injuries since his Spurs days, it can’t be a coincidence that every time his contract is up, he all of sudden starts to regularly playing. Such a shame because the dude was as great as a basketball player can get, but he just views it purely as a business
Kawhi is the current generation Bill Walton, an absolute star who achieved a lot but still an insane what-if because of how clearly injuries have affected him.
Tony Parker’s lil comment painted his character for me. On top of the shit Stephen Jackson said about him. He seems like one of those people where the public perception is a little different from what we see everyday.
@@brycetheoddball tony parker told no lie. his injury was worse, kawhi was being a bitch hiding from pop with no call/no shows. and spurs doctors also diagnosed his knee correctly.
As a Raptors fan, I love what he did for the team. He won't get his jersey retired, Toronto is a very weird town and MLSE is a weird organization when it comes to jersey retirement. The Championship banner represents Kawhi, that's about all I expect he'll get. As for the intervening years since 2019, he is absolutely at fault for where the Clippers are now, since they mortgaged everything to get Paul George, which was Kawhi's requirement for signing there and now they're left with nothing to show for it. He played GM (or Uncle Dennis did) and the result is a good not great team with a middling future.
Kawhi is my favorite player . I HATE that injuries are a thing because if they weren’t , Kawhi would no doubt be a top5 player in the league once again
I like him morethan lebron or curry. His game is polished and we must have the one who Kobe passed the torch to but he doesnt care for being the poster boy of nba
Do you guys think Kahwi regrets not signing with the Lakers in the 2019 offseason? I think Danny green signs with the lakers first hoping Kawhi would follow him if I’m not mistaken
As a Laker fan I’m happy he failed in the end. Not happy he got hurt but happy he failed because he really manipulated the Lakers telling them he was planning on signing with them only to be waiting if the clippers were gonna trade for PG. He used the Lakers as leverage so screw him. Stupid he thought the worse organization in sports was better then the best. He mest up big time choosing the clippers over the lakers
Hot take: Zaza Pachulia got/gets way too much blame for Kawhi's sprained ankle. He's been accused of intentionally undercutting Kawhi in that game for the longest time now, and there is no proof that he actually did it on purpose. Hell, it's mostly Spurs fans or Warriors haters who make that claim to support their belief that the Spurs would've beaten the Warriors in 2017, of which there is almost no proof of anyway. As great as a healthy Kawhi is, his best was not going to be enough to take down that team. Even when he did "end the Warriors' dynasty", it was not even because of him mainly; it was injuries.
Just like how the nba stop chris paul from joining kobe to stop his legacy, they did the same thing to kawhi by injuring him. zaza was working for the nba bcus if kawhi beat Golden State with kevin durant on that team, it would only push him in the goat convo, and lebron would not be in that convo at all lebron is the nba poster boy and they cant have there poster boy look bad that why they allow him to stock his team and always going after kawhi
Kawhi is better than all of the superstars that the NBA has to offer. You can do a statistical comparison which will say otherwise but winning is what really matters, stats just gives you something to talk about
about time NBA introducing requirements for players need to play to get their checks. the fact that Klay got away eating max contract for 2 years while he's injured and then demand another max after really shows players don't give a flying F about their team and their fans that came to watch them play. if they can sit 90% of the games, so be it. it needs to change, NOW.
Kawhi has destroyed his own legacy by sitting out (basically) his entire last year with the Spurs. After that, no one gives him any rope on injury stuff.
@@davis2k1234at what point? Kawhi needed elite rosters around him. He could never actually carry a team since he misses 25 games a season. Blew a 3-1 lead in the bubble

Blowing that 3-1 lead against Denver in the bubble wasn’t his fault ? It was him and pg fault lol y’all gotta stop forgetting about that kawhi is an all time great that’s already cemented but his clippers tenure has been disappointing and a failure simple
overhyped player. he has two postseason runs that are impressive and the rest of the time he was either injured or a role player. also lets not erase how 2020 happened. he is a failure as a clipper. people protect this man too much.
It's pathetic how NBA doesn't punish players that intentionally injure others
Agreed! If it's intentional - they should be kicked out of the league.

Blowing that 3-1 lead against Denver in the bubble wasn’t his fault ? It was him and pg fault lol y’all gotta stop forgetting about that kawhi is an all time great that’s already cemented but his clippers tenure has been disappointing and a failure simple

This dude is the worst load manager in the game. Foh.
He is to blame for his own legacy.
overhyped player. he has two postseason runs that are impressive and the rest of the time he was either injured or a role player. also lets not erase how 2020 happened.
he is a failure as a clipper. people protect this man too much.
He is done.
