is it possible that Kawhi is not that good?
dont take me wrong, Kawhi is the best defender on Earth, one-on-one,
yet there are many intangibles to being a superstar:
One, leadership and presence in crucial moments (Duncan and Manu have this, like the all-time greats)
Two, the ability to make his teammates better (i do not know if Kawhi has this in great amounts)
Three, Offensive execution in clutch moments (well, Kawhi has done it once or twice; MJ and Bird do it regularly)
Four, the ability to diagnose the tempo of a game and influence it accordingly (again, I do not know if Kawhi has this)
Fifth, consistency and the ability to maintain his greatness over long periods (which our boy sadly lack)

having said that.....hmmmm.....we still believe!
