[HI-FI]

Starting to see why Harlem doesn't like this guy.

Hope he complains about other stars getting away with shit.

[024]

I've noticed Kawhi travel a lot too. I can already predict other posters here will be like "but but other players do it too." The fact is Leonard is traveling and other NBA players travel too. They should all be called as travels.

:lol I actually don't have a problem with his content, tbh(I don't want usually watch, though)..I just think he's too goofy and dislike his voice..

[apalisoc_9]

Guy just needs content. Don't really have the problem with the video.

Spursfans better get used to the limelight. I'm not sure of even Duncan had this much media attention.

[Chews]

Dude sounds like the stereotypical white guy :lol

Ya, I can't fuck with him..there's a reason niggas like Stephen A and Kellerman are on ESPN, it isn't for their ability to analyze games:lol

If I owned ESPN..aint no way I am getting rid of Stephen A.

They offered Bayless 7/per but I guess Bayless was committed to leaving.

That Bayless/Smith Combo probably amounted to half of ESPN personalities salaries..The best trolls in Media History.

I do wonder what schtick Bayless would stick on once Lebron retires though. :lol

And carrying is everywhere too with IT and harden leading the way. It's everywhere and I doubt it'll be changed . BTW the hesitation dribble, rarely done legally

[TampaDude]

Yeah, that shit is rampant in the NBA. It's not just KL.

Time and time again, I see players catch the inbound and take 2 or 3 steps before dribbling or passing. It's like the refs see it so often, they just don't call it anymore.

[313]

And carrying is everywhere too with IT and harden leading the way. It's everywhere and I doubt it'll be changed . BTW the hesitation dribble, rarely done legallyI noticed Kawhi carrying it multiple times tonight, refs just aren't going to call it. And like you said, whenever you see a player use a hesitation it's usually a carry. Yet people are trying to crucify IT :lol

[SpursforSix]

His dirty little secret is far less egregious than LeBrons. The chick was like 14 right?

Id rather Kawhi not get called for traveling but all the other players that do should be called for it.

What?

[poop]

His dirty little secret is that hes a 6-7 black dude with the worlds biggest hands but his penis is only 4.25 inches

[Mr. Body]

They need to retroactively call Jordan for all his shit in the 90s.

[Down Under]

Star guards carry most times they turn the corner, Harden initiates most contact into the defender, LeBron walks & uses his off forearm to create separation. Every star breaks the rules in their own way, been happening for decades.

And you didn't even mention what they can get away with on defense.

Wonder what the game would be if stars got called for breaking the rules.

No it's not silly, there's AT LEAST 12 inches from where Harden's teeth are and where Harden's stomach begins. I'm pretty sure Kawhi is filling that space up.

[playbonner15]

Approaching Buzzfeed levels of clickbait with that title

:lol :toast

I would bet big money that his penis is larger than that . Plus it's kind of oily.

[GSH]

The end of the video shows guys taking 10 steps without a dribble, and the point is totally correct. But moving your feet on the catch is the least of the NBA's problems. Focusing on Kawhi, and calling it Kawhi's "Dirty Little Secret"? Stupid and bitchy.

All it tells me is that Kawhi is kicking a LOT of people's asses, to draw that kind of attention.

[FkLA]

Finally had time to watch the whole video. Technically a violation, but as the last part showed it's dumb to call it a Kawhi thing since it's common practice league wide:

What clutchfans did by trying to bring attention to this is the equivalent of ST bitching about Harden carrying. Again, technically a violation but everyone fucking does it including Spurs players:

of course. watch them carry as they bring the ball casually up the court. they all carry and travel. but the majority of NBA fans want to see scoring on spectacular plays. it's why the media coined the term purist. you have to remember it's a business for entertainment. it's not about the sanctity of the game.

great clips. hilarious harden travel and offensive foul. so hard to even enjoy it anymore

[pgardn]

Carrying the ball is just as rampant if not more so. KL does this as well but Harden is the best at it.

[TheyCallMePro]

There's no denying that Kawhi is traveling in those highlights. For years other players have complained not only about him changing his pivot foot but also when he drives he tends to take a hop, then 2-3 steps. It's always looked awkward and it's always baffled me as to why he's almost never called for it. I guess when you do something so often officials just kind of get used to it and don't really think about calling it.

I feel like every game there are 4-5 blatant travels that go uncalled. Ironically most of the fans catch these and have a strong reaction to them. And those are just the obvious calls. These are more subtle so you know there's no way they're catching most of these.

LeBron and Draymond also to the extend
