He has no weaknesses but struggles with making good decisions when double teamed...

Has no weaknesses but isn't an elite slasher...

Has no weaknesses but is slow-footed and faster guys blow by him with regularity...

Has no weaknesses but seasoned scorers get their shot on him with regularity...

Has no weaknesses but can't create for others, he either scores the ball or does nothing else offensively...

Has no weaknesses but has an assist/turnover ratio barely over 1:1 for his career because he's an average passer, at best, for an NBA-level basketball player...

Has no weaknesses but can be taken out of a game if his jumper isn't working...

I can keep going, do you guys watch ball or just skim thru it? The idea he has no weaknesses is so ludicrous its unbelievable yall keep parroting the shyt...
Relax breh, Kawhi has a bad game and you start short circuiting :yeshrug:

If you are trying to prove that Bron is greater than Kawhi stop, Bron is greater at b-ball than Kawhi so there. With that said Kawhi has developed into an all time great.

Bruh I didn't create the thread. And my response was for at least three people in this thread who said Kawhi "has no weaknesses", that was all it was about. Nothing more, nothing less...

Kawhi is an All-Timer, no disagreement there...

If Kawhi wins it all this year it still doesn't put him with Peak LeBron, but if you're going that far, you gonna have to entertain Peak Kawhi as better than a whole lot more guys than just LeBron...

True. That post was more of a reaction to Kawhi's Game 1 than a true Kawhi v LeBron debate. I've never really been that big on Kawhi's talent. He's good but I don't think he's been quite as good as his recent hype (i.e. people comparing him to Jordan and Kobe). Game 1 versus Denver was the first time I watched and saw glimpses of Jordan/Kobe in his game. And that was all I was alluding to. If he continues to play that way and wins another title, I will be compelled to give him more credit than I have given him in the past.

I elevated Kevin Durant in a similar manner after he dominated LeBron and the Cavs in the 2017 and 2018 Finals. I still have Peak LeBron over Peak Durant but KD's 2017 and 2018 runs made it a more legit debate to me.
