Kawhi woulda been if zaza didn’t close out like that ngl

that adrenaline must’ve kicked his ASS because anyone who felt this pain would NOT stand up right after ts 💔

he's lucky we live in the softest era in human history.

This foul robbed us of a all timer in Kawhi 🥲 zaza is so dirty man 🤬

This play changed basketball. It made the rules tailer to player’s safety. Offensive players now need to generally jump straight up and land in the same spot (it means now leaning forward or fading back into defenders), and defensive players need to close out more disciplined to give offensive players their entitled cylinder. This goes for NBA, college, high school, and youth basketball

Iggy ain’t even an all NBA player, not even once. Kawhi is a top 75 all time NBA player. 2 time DPOY.

2015: KYRIE 2017: KAWHI 2018: CHRIS PAUL 👍

And that’s how dynasty was born

Glad they made this a flagrant I once sprained my ankle so bad landing on basketball weight thingy, couldn't walk for a week, ankle swollen af, immense pain when I put any weight on it

And that's was a flagrant foul?? Not seeing it 😶

Say what you want. He got into his landing zone on purpose and that’s not basketball it’s a dirty move purposely trying to injure someone else like that. He’s not the only one to do it and the nba was correct for over correcting the action, otherwise people would be doing it all the time to Lebron, Steph etc

Bruce Bowen brought me here...

7 years ago???

Golden state fans are the biggest coward B...s

This moment led to the spurs get Wemby

F Zaza... nvr looks back, yet does that poor me big gestures

Kawhi and wembey😊

kawhi has never been the same player since this injury

This play changed the game. Gave shooters more leniency

Spurs fans are really hypocrites. Bruce Bowen did this his whole damn life.

Hahahaha look at his bum ahh bunny hopping after that 😂😂😂 thank lord he out of nba

Zaza mad gay for this I remember being so angry

The warriors are one of the best dynasties in nba history and deserve all the respect. But Pachulia would do this constantly and is one of the few blemishes on this as a team. Draymond is intense, but never intentionally injured players

Bro should’ve been suspended for the remainder of the playoffs

The kings of NBA deafeated by kawaii😂😂😂

The MVP of the 2017 playoffs is Zaza for taking out the one player who represented a threat to GS going back to the Finals.

Bro i want to literally beat the fuck at zaza back then an now still seeing this again all these years later he fuckt me an the spurs

I wish we knew what wouldve happened had kwahi not got injured 🤔

This is planned way to injured him

Honestly I never realized how the warriors were booing kawhi. I think they got their karma in Toronto.

Whos here after Pop told Spurs fans to stop booing? This play literally turned a fanbase against one of their most beloved players.

ZAZA OWNS HIM ❤

Dumi mong maglaro puta

That was not intentional, Zaza does a quick change of direction then takes a long stride to close out. He was already on 1 foot by the time the shot was off, he had to move his front foot to give his back foot a place to go.

Zaza should have been Finals MVP.

This where Giannis Antetokounmpo got the idea to do it to Kyrie. Both teams got a championship.

as a GSW fan, I appreciate Zaza Pachulia. The man is a hero

they would won the series but zaza

Irony because for so long bruce bowen was doing this to everyone.

Zaza more like pedophile inbred.

fast-forward to 2019 kahwi got revenge

The irony of it happening to a player of an organization that had the master of this kind of dirty play - Bruce Bowen

Kawhi is my favorite player ever. Although he won a chip + FMVP just two years after this, this injury fucked up his career. He’s now injury prone and lacks longevity. It’s sad.

When Zaza injured Kawhi *Timeout Warriors* KD: Fuck this n*gga is too strong *calls Zaza* HEY ZAZA ZP: *gets called by KD and goes to him* What KD: Injure Kawhi ZP: Aye aye sir *Later that game Zaza injures Kawhi Leonard and gets away with it* *After the game* KD: Good Job ZP: No problem This is just a joke i just felt bad for Kawhi cuz that Zaza idiot is unforgivable and i think KD was the one who told him idk

Luckiest franchise in NBA history

Bruce bowen same use the technic

This shit is crazy and still unbelievable he literally injured him on purpose because he was torching them single handidly and nba did nothing ..

😡😡😡

We need him again to do this to AD

At the time I thought Zaza was just an tall uncoordinated not athletic by NBA standards goofy role player that was sloppy. Which isn’t a crime. The talent, basketball iq, skills, an athletic ability of the players in nba is so ridiculously high, that most role bench players that a third string don’t get a ton of minutes are going to look like scrubs or bad guarding top players in the league like Kawhi. At the time, watching the game live, I just thought goofy ass zaza was just trying to hustle and effort on this play after leanord got him with the step back but lacked the coordination, body and court awareness to stop his steps going towards leanord after the shot. Even watching this, I still think that might be the case. Zaza not being a good player does the dumb thing of focusing on the ball after the ball leaves Leonard’s hands following the ball with his eyes turning his head and seems to side shovel to plant for the possible rebound and to see if he’ll need to run back on offense. That being said, in slow motion in slow motion it doesn’t appear he had enough momentum to require the that second side shuffle to stop, he didn’t seem to jump with enough force or appeared off balance trying to defend the shot, his side shuffles it looks like he tried multiple times to put both feet under where leanord was going to land, it seems like he was looking to make contact with leanord the whole time instead of block or defend the shot. You’d think he’d try to avoid fouling a shooter that clearly has him beat and was getting the ball off with a good open shot. Why make it an and 1 situation being down 21 points. If Zaza was just trying to make a hard foul to turn the momentum or give his team a break or make it so the spurs best players would avoid trying to score with him on the ball going forward not because he can guard them but his clumsy ass would foul them hard…then why not foul leanord before he got the shot off with the time and a clean open look with your whole body. It really looks like he was trying to go for the ball or hard foul but to put his feet under leanord. That being said Zaza career wise was a bench role player, his team was getting blown out and loosing the series. He wasn’t skilled at anything really, not athletic, clumsy…career wise if your season is ending why get the reputation of being the player that severely hurts and cause’s possible career altering or ending injuries against franchise players? No coach, GM, owner, player would want him on their team. Players are union brothers and unions don’t tolerate members hurting or fucking over or causing problems or reporting to management on other members. He’d be black balled shunned from the league. No team would want him on their roster because everyone would know or think he was signed for the soul purpose of seriously hurting an opponent. Being Zaza was a low minute bench role player with no specialized skill and was clumsy….I can see him prioritizing getting more future contracts hoping around the league riding the bench instead of possibly winning a ring. Yeah he’d be an nba champion without any more nba contracts or friendships going forward known as a dirty bad person. I can’t see Zaza wanting to loose out millions, ga terrible reputation, be remembered as a piece of shit, be without a job for the opportunity to win one ring as a low minute bench player. That doesn’t make sense. Also, Zaza legitimately was just a clumsy tall uncoordinated dude that lacked the skill and athleticism to properly guard top players and lack the basketball iq to understand spacing/where top players and himself would land or head or what to do.
