Klay is a great shooter, can create for himself, and is a good defender, how exactly is he a system player?
Kawhi is not a system player - Durant

Individual defense travels no matter what team you go on, but his looks would not be anywhere near as easy if he had to play on some shyt team without an offense with lots of movement
Is this your shtick? This is my first time seeing you post?
i was with kd up until he said he wouldn't take that tweet back.
not there yet
he flamed out in the playoffs last year. Let's see what he does against OKC in round 2.
You damn right he ain't.

Low-key Klay is a better allaround player than Steph...
Kawhi was a bit of a late bloomer when it comes to cultivating his skill set, but at this point he's legit and it's more mental now; i.e. imposing his will in tightly contested playoff games vs the Clippers, Thunder, Warriors, etc.
As far as the skillset, some players grow up with NBA player dads who can indoctrinate them into certain habits at a young age, others have a great AAU system or go to a great college program. I don't follow college bball so i've only heard that Kawhi was pretty much like a pf in school, so i dunno whether they saw his height, wingspan, hands,etc and kinda just typecast him as a shawn marion at best (with no emphasis on offense) or just where the disconnect came from... b/c he sure as hell seems to have the work ethic... and the Spurs definitely picked up on it

Durant called him a system player
Nah that's not exactly what he said
richard jefferson was in the same system as kawhi and dude was a BUST. if the system is why kawhi is thriving then why didn't it work for richard jefferson?
kawhi has made an impact the moment he stepped on the floor and calling him a system player at any point in his career is seriously disrespectful.

All around= offense and defense.
