@Squirrel from Meteor Man trying to switch up and be a Kawhi stan after he made these posts -
The fact that you would rather have Kawhi Leonard, a proven number 2 guy AT BEST, shows that you will never give Melo a fair shake. Put Melo, PG, Durant, even Khris Middleton on SA and they win at least 3 titles. Melo has never had the tools to make a deep run to the finals.
:what: Kawhi on the Knicks by himself would be the worst team in the league. With him being 100 percent healthy. He's not #1 option as proven last playoffs. Melo haters smh
Kawhi isn't gonna get much better than what he is. His game isn't made to be a first option because he can't really shoot or create. That's why I never got the Pippen comparison. Pippen could play point, kawhi has a different skill set.
Stop embarrassing yourself.

Game 3 being on NBATV instead of TNT(Grizz/Thunder) is crazy. Everyone knew this was gonna be best series, they should be given the priority.
Yep dikkhead nba scheduling strikes again.

The celtics/magic, cavs/heat, okc/memphis needs to be our nba tv sacrifice series except on the weekend and espn friday

Jokic played solid defense. I don’t know what you’re watching.

If you’re expecting him to be a shot blocker, you’re misguided.
You’re mistaking him rotating as a part of predetermined coverage as “solid defense”. Of course he’s not a shot blocker, no one is asking him to be that.

He gave up open looks to Zubac all night, he couldn’t effectively stay in front of ANYBODY on the team, and when he got tired, he started throwing himself on the floor trying to bait a charge.

DJJ, Dunn, and Powell got big baskets because he doesn’t move. He hopes guys miss so he can get a rebound and throw it up the floor,

The Clippers role guys getting wide open baskets are because of the team having to scramble because he can’t move his feet

Not sure what to make of this series

If Kawhi’s knees hold up, he’s back to being a top 5 player. The same guy who obliterated Butler, Embiid, Giannis, and Luka in playoff series and was looking to add Booker and KD to the list until the knees gave out. It’s always the knees once we think he’s turned the corner with the knees.

At the same time, even if he sustains it, Jokic can be just as unstoppable and DEN still has some clear advantages on the boards. Series gonna be ridiculous

Kawhi from a pure hoops standpoint is the best player in the league to me, not really anything he can’t do on the court

Breh just be having games like this then you’ll wake up next day he out for the season
I think that's why Bron stans get in their feelings about Kawhi...because from a pure esthetic standpoint Kawhi's game is so much prettier than Bron's.



Kawhi is on that Jordan/Kobe tier when it comes to footwork and destroying a defender with 2 or 3 dribbles.

Next year we will be complaining about which games are on Amazon and on NBC/Peacock
The nba really giving amazon playoff games. Good grief ..

Next year ESPN/ESPN2 should get the monday-thursday tnr slate then nbc gets friday, saturday, and sunday quad headers or abc gets 2 sat games and 2 sun games. 4 nba playoff games on AIR tv would be great
