I love Kawhi man, there’s no one in this world that can hate on that man, he’s just pure greatness, and that shot against Philly, OH MAN!! UNFORGETTABLE😂😂😍😍
He has that unexpected dunk or lift. Ibaka, Terrence Davis and Norman Powell have that too. Something with former Raptors and their unexpected explosive dunks. See Terrence Davis:ua-cam.com/video/5vUJ-y7_R3I/v-deo.html
I think because he dunks with literally just his strength. Like when I dunk, I don’t work out at all, I need a really good technique and a good running start to really spring my body up. Same with LeBron, he puts his entire body into motion. Kawhi just uses pure strength
These people are such prisoners of the moment saying PG 13 is just as good as Kawhi like the Clippers are in the conference finals just because of him. Kawhi got hurt and he can't control that. Paul George couldn't even make it out of the first round with Westbrick who's a superstar but when gets with Kawhi he sees more success instantly. 🤷
@@Renegade77784 cuz Westbrook was ass n okc had no shooters can ya really blame him come on he made it a couple times by himself inna east with way less I fw kawhi but put respect on pg name
He's gonna be one of the most underrated players ever. I honestly aren't even a kawhi fan particularly. But I don't think people are gonna realize how crazy good he was.
The problem with Khawi is that he don’t really care about the regular season, with the Spurs he won his 2 DPOY because he wasn’t THE GUY, he had Duncan, Parker ect and he was young so he had to prove himself. But since then, he only play hard in the post season, so he will never win an MVP, and unfortunately he is injury prone so i don’t see him winning another championship. If Khawi was playing like he play in the post season in the regular season and wasn’t injury prone, he would already have 1 or 2 MVP, he would have probably win this year with the Clippers and he would be considered on the same level as Kobe, Duncan, KD, Curry ect. Look at Giannis, with 2 MVP, 1 DPOY, 1 Finals MVP and a 50pts, 14pts, 5block closing game, he is already considered the 2nd best power forward ever after Tim Duncan, at only 26 years old, and probably a Top 20-Top 15 player ever ALREADY. But if Giannis was injury prone and was doing load management in the regular season he wouldn’t have his 2 MVP and wouldn’t be in that conversation, so it’s a shame for me, this era has to many talents man, Old Heads don’t realise it or they are just jealous, or maybe too nostalgic to the point of becoming blind … Because im sorry, KD and post season Khawi are easily on MJ level for me, and they aren’t even the best player of this generation, and then you have Shaq, Duncan, Kobe, Curry, Giannis, KG, Dirk, Harden, Iverson, Westbrook,Wade, Steve Nash, Jason Kidd, Chris Paul, Dame lillard, Embiid, Jokic, Doncic, AD, Kyrie, Klay thompson, Paul George, D.Rose, Rondo, Trae Young, Tatum, Zion, Booker … Im sorry but thats better than Magic, Kareem abdul Jabbar, Bird, Olajuwon, Shaq, Mchale, Karl Malone, Doctor J, Patrick Ewing, David Robinson, Charles barkley, Isaiah Thomas, Roadman, Stockton, Reggie Miller, Clyde Drexler, James Worthy, Robert Parish ect. Lebron competition have been way better than MJ competition, especially in their prime. When MJ hit his prime around 88, and Pippen became a superstar, Magic, Bird, Kareem, Mchale, Dr.J, Isaiah thomas ect, basically the 3 superteams, the Lakers, Celtics and Pistons were old and washed, or retired. But when Lebron hit his prime around 2007, he had to face prime SPURS with the big 3 of Duncan, the big 4 of celtics with KG, Pierce, Ray Allen and Rondo, the Thunders of KD, Westbrook, Harden and Ibaka, and again the big 3 spurs, but with the reincarnation of MJ himself, Khawi Leonard, and then, he faced the best team of all time with a 73-9 record, and he beat them, but they added KD, a guy who can do everything MJ could, but better because he is fucking 7ft tall and can move and dribble like a guard … And don’t remember the MAVS of Dirk and Jason kidd, who beat the Lakers of Kobe and Gasol, the thunders of KD and westbrook, and the big 3 SPURS . Lebron played in the most stacked era ever, he even had to adapt his game because of the drastic change in the way the game is played now with all the 3points, the spacing and faster pace.
Thanks Kawhi for the years spent as a San Antonio Spur. I had the pleasure of watching you, Tim Duncan, Tony Parker and Manu Ginobili play the best basketball I have ever witnessed. It’s hard to enjoy the game now after seeing the best during that time. The Spurs family misses you and all that could have been. Thanks for the time spent as a Spur.
Kawhi really got injured guys. You can see he doesn't move like he used to. That's not age, that's injury. Y'all blaming a guy for taking care of himself.
@@zeddyzeddy15 it means, that most people doesn’t acknowledge Kawhi‘s greatness and try to tarnish his legacy. So he doesn‘t get appreciated or get his flowers. I hope it helped you.
@@johnfromtennessee2651 for sure lol most people tip the ball away and chase it he just runs up grabs that shit right out of their grip and goes on his way
Man, watching him growing as a child, loved basketball because of him when I used to hate this beautiful sport. Seeing him as champion, playing at MJ and Kobe kind of levels. Then watching him get injured again for tonight's game 3 against Phoenix. It's just heartbreaking. Kawhi is so great, a living legend, and not being able to put the final step when it comes to health, just sucks. Anyways, either you win a ring again or not, I'll love you forever, the klaw, the Cyborg, the Terminator, the best player on the court always, no matter who he was playing against
He's so disciplined with his dunk and layup finishes. Keeps the ball in front. Never hesitates or looks back or cocks back or slows down. Just calmly gets a step and keeps it.
A guy like kawhi doesn’t get enough credit for his skill because he does just enough to get his basket not too flashy. But he has the whole package offensively! And defensively we know wassup. That’s my guy 💪🏾
My favorite thing about Kawhi is how good he is on offense AND defense. He’s an insane lockdown defender and can go get a bucket on O whenever he wants
No fancy dunks or lay ups,no stat padding,no trash talking… just Winning basketball! I know Coach Pop misses him. 😂 Best player in the League since MJ!
@@delusionalfreak1421 some people dont have him at top 5, some people say giannis over kawhi, or even ad. people fail to realize and recognize his talent
@@JumpingOnion I Feel Sorry to that cause the Media Always did Dirty at Him Mostly After he Signed the Clippers people also failed to Recognized After he Leave Spurs they're not Contender in the West After the Big 3 Retired
Still underrated player. Deserves more credit and recognition. He is one of the most complete player to play the game. Offense wise, the guy can can shoot, pass, screen, off-rebound and has a good handle. Defense wise, he can guard you and hassle you like no other, can block, steal and rebound! The guy is just a complete player! I’ll take Kawhi over Kobe anyday!
@@KB-fn6vb yes Kobe! We can all agree, he is one of the best scorers ever. But the fact to the matter is, he is a very selfish player. Remember those games that lakers lost coz he would not pass the ball to guys that are wide wide open even though he triple team! Remember that bulls game? That maverick’s games? I could go on and on! While he is scoring points at the same time losing points for the team because (god bless his soul), he is a selfish prick! Should’ve played tennis instead not a TEAM sport
That shot in game 7 will forever be imprinted in my brain, it’s definitely my favorite basketball moment ever
Same here bro. I watched every Toronto game that playoff year. I was also high af when he hit that.
@@GolDHakl that probably made it even more exciting 😂
@@GolDHakl 🤣🤣🤣 that shot would've felt even longer to drop for you lol
Me too!
So if kawhi missed that shot he would be eliminated? I'm glad he did!
I love Kawhi man, there’s no one in this world that can hate on that man, he’s just pure greatness, and that shot against Philly, OH MAN!! UNFORGETTABLE😂😂😍😍
Clippers would be so much more enjoyable to watch with Kawhi
This dude used heart eyes😂
Bro is wet over KAWHI I’m sleep
SAS: Are you sure no one can hate on him though 🤔
I thought people said Kawhi wasn't a closer? 🥴🥴🥴
Kawhis explosion is crazy. Like he doesn’t need any balance to just take off.
He kinda has a New Balance lol
