If you think you're talking about a mans hands too much go on realgm forums or some other random cess pool discussion on the Internet.. You're not even on the border of talking about it too much compared to espn announcers anyways

I only check Real GM for headlines and funny gifs/videos, other than that the site is meh....

I check it for the cess pool dumbasses. It's amusing. Reddit NBA is also pretty horrible

W/e tho, just remember this day next year when we're roasting kawhi for being overrated like we did with Paul George

I'll be waiting

Who said that Kawhi is a superstar???

Calm down man, stop the hate, he'll be the finals mvp prolly but he's just becoming an all star...

^ you realize this is how it started with Paul George right?? It's déjà vu man

Leonard is not an All Star even, let alone Superstar. He's an excellent young role player on a championship team. He's being rated as that, unless I've missed something.

Agreed mostly, but you did miss something... a lot actually. I'll fill you in:

According to espn, kawhi is the heir to Tim Duncan and spurs will continue to be a dynasty for the next 20 years

RealGm is the perfect site to check headlines and move on quickly. Cavs interested in Mark Jackson. I didn't even click that one   

Leonard would be an all-star if he could create anything for himself. I would agree his attacks look forced and unnatural. He's the definition of a role player but an epic one. I could/would argue Scotty Pippen was a role player too though.

Hope this shit ends on Sunday. I want more draft news. I want more false rumors regarding Melo and LeBron's future.

I don't get the perception of Americans and superstars/all stars...

Why you should be an all star because you can "make shots off the dribble"? Derozan can make, doesn that make him a better player than Kawhi? Heck NO...

Kawhi knows his role, he can defend the best player in the league!

He can rebound, block and steal shots, he can play 2, 3 and 4...

He can make driving shots/dunks and make shots on spot ups and get on the break...

But with all that said, the only thing that matters for us basketball "geeks and coaches" is that he can play lockdown D and make some shots on the other end...

lol @ him "defending Lebron."

He's letting him get 28/7/4 on 60%+ ... What a fucking lockdown defender more media driven bullshit. Espn dipshit commentators don't shut up about him "stopping Lebron," meanwhile in reality bron is going OFF. He's having a fantastic series

Stars exist becuase media needs them to feed off them. This is why the media built up Paul George and now kawhi leonard. Everything you said about kawhi can be said about PG, but at the end of the day these guys get paid BIG money to be failures.

You say creating off the dribble doesn't matter? I wouldn't give ANYONE who can't dribble ANY money at all. It's basketball FFS, the whole game is based on bouncing a damn ball. PG & Kawhi wouldn't be on my team, why build with 1 dimensional players? This ain't baseball, everyone needs to do a little of everything

Lol why do you care about other people then = media?

You think kawhi cant create? Lol hw doesnt need to,nobody does except tp on the spurs...

AMAZING stuff...

Also Leroy, you have like 20 players in the whole world who can make tough shots off the dribble on a elite level...

So your theory doesn't stick...

I'm sad I've been busy the last several mornings and have missed this Kawhi is the next best thing narrative from ESPN. I've barely seen First Take this week, which is equally tragic for me. I can believe the hype based on his Finals play. Leonard is a solid 78-79 ovr. Just a shade better than Ariza. Guarding LeBron is impossible but he's doing a reasonable job. At least he's not letting him go off, but then again, LeBron is getting no help with DWade going like 3-13 last game. Miami losing brings me great joy I must say. Good for San Antonio for not feeling sorry for themselves last year and bouncing back. Inspiring imo

^^ Absolutely agree brah...

I don't care if they can make shots off the dribble, as long as they can do something. And there are PLENTY of those guys in the league... I'll take someone like Afflalo over Leonard/PG. I would even take Joe Johnson on a reasonable contract

Aflallo yea, jj nah...

Joe Jesus is a beast.

RIP

lol

Well if the season ends tomorrow at least we'll have a fun offseason. I hope to god this sterling shit ends FAST tho, jfc nothing is gonna happen. If something does happen, well that's cool lol. He hired investigators to dig dirt on others so it would be hilarious if all owners lost their teams on the count of them all being racist (we all know they are)

I'm kinda glad Sterling is fighting this. It's bullshit to lose your team, encounter a 7 figure fine, have the entire nation judge you etc all because of a private conversation that wasn't even that bad.

Somehow Magic Johnson comes out of this looking like some kind of great guy. Yeah, Mr Cheat on your wife hundreds of times, get HIV, have a queen as a son (its ok to have a gay son but a full blown queen? GTFO and parent ffs), and celebrate when Mike D'Antoni loses his job is all part of being a "great guy" I guess. Sterling might as well fight it...I mean, the 2 billion dollars means nothing to him at this juncture of his life. He's been wealthy for the last 50 years anyway and he'll be dead soon. Might as well troll the NBA on your way out.

I'm torn on this Melo to Heat narrative. It doesn't bother me as much as it does most people. I'd kinda like to see Melo and LeBron join forces or at least change teams. Melo in particular since he's wasting away in NY.

^ agreed

This Melo & Lebron shit isn't happening tho FFS. Dude wants his money and can't get it with everyone else on the roster. Melo will go to some shitfest like Houston and Chicago then bitch his way out again

I agree about sterling stuff, it was a private convo ffs...

Jalen said it best: "Kawhi is the new era Scottie Pippen"

Wade is playing like Anthony Parker on the 2010 Cavs...

LOL GTFO

Wade is Sasha Pavlovic at best

lmao true dat
