I'm tired of Max Kellerman disrespecting Kawhi

Blows my mind how so many folks don't get this.

But dear God this is better than having to listen to Shannon Sharpe speak for more than 2 minutes. I thought Steven A. was irritating.

In hindsight, we had the best set up for this kind of stupid show with Steven A. and Bayless. Now we have 2 of them that are far, far worse than the original.

Sharpe is the absolute worst. I can't even stand his stupid-ass diction in the commercials :lol

He did say who you would pick for excitement, not who you would pick if you're trying to win a Championship

He did not really bash him, he said he is a great player and wants him on his team to win, but he is talking about not being as exciting as others. Sound familiar :lol

It is amazing and so crazy, that Tim Duncan a man who maybe never truly got the love he deserved for the all time great that he is, due to perception that he was not exciting enough, and his successor is the same kind of dude. A great player, that does pretty much everything well but lacks the supposed flash. So we already see Leonard not getting some of the love he should just like Tim. In fact exactly like Tim. Shit is scary.

Leonard is exciting to watch, though. He fucking steals the ball with his huge hands, runs the floor, and finishes with dunks. What do people consider exciting?

Then again, I also found Duncan's game exciting, so we're clearly not starting from a similar perspective.

You ask me, you know what's exciting? Skill. When someone performs a skill at a high level, it's entertaining.

shooting 11 three pointers per game.


It's funny how for years people called our ball movement and creating open 3's for players boring, but when GS does it, it's "revolutionary" and never been seen before. foh. This is why I don't watch tv outside of the actual games. People are sheep.

:lmao at "the positions are made up anyways" or "there is no such thing as a small forward".

We are living in the era of some of the most dominant small forwards ever. You don't hear him crying to remove Durant from the game.

Dude just wants to throw out the rules so he can slob both Westbrook and Curry at the same time.

His argument is basically give the fans what they want. Wouldn't the fan vote be the best indicator? In which case Zaza should be an all-star over AD. Maybe they should get rid of West vs East and make it Guards vs Front Court.

If his point is entertainment factor then what makes KD and Harden so entertaining?

for those of you that have followed boxing for decades, this is what we had to put up with on ESPN2 for YEARS before Roy Jones was knocked the fuck out. After Jones cherry picked beat one of the worst hw champs of all time(John Ruiz), we had to sit thru months and months of this fucker talking about how Roy would have beat Joe Fraizer, Tyson, Joe Louis, and gave Ali a tough fight. Once Roy's reflexes went to shit, we saw why he fought bums a lot in his career because he was hiding a glass chin. Max is even a bigger Sweet Pea dick rider, but all of his points are valid about Whitaker. He just went to the extreme on the Roy Jones love. Don't know what made ESPN think he actually knows shit about basketball becasue he doesn't and it's obvious he doesn't even watch us play

The fans and media love kawhi tbh :lol he was 2nd in mvp voting averaging 21 ppg and he got first team all nba and got b2b dpoy. He is receiving more love than Timmy, besides he is a jumpshooter a la kobe/jordan mold niggas love that

Thanks Max for reaffirming that the All-Star game is not about who the best players are, it's about the best showmanship. But let me throw a wrench in his plea for Westbrook to be a starter. Do fans really want to watch him brick three points from three feet behind the line and miss layups that normal players would make? That's what you get with Westbrook. He's just an athlete that plays ferociously, but not efficiently. Harden is an artist. I enjoy watching him play. Westbrook is just a guy you want to watch fail. I'd much rather watch Kawhi then Westbrook, but I guess he means that even though Kawhi may look good picking Lebron's pocket and dunking it, it isn't as fun to watch as Westbrook going 1 for 5 on drives, but that one drive he makes he lets everyone in the stadium know. Yes, that will do great for the All-Star game ratings going forward.

Tools should be stored out of sight. Max is a tool.
