As aggressive as I am... if I was a ... I know for a fact that I could corrupt little Kahwi. He has that unsure look about himself. Some patron and a few lines and he'd be toast. Its not like you guys would love him any less if you caught him in bed with an uncir cised stinky paki watching cartoons.
I like how Naruto sat through the meeting, listened to their concerns and was like..."Okay, y'all...I'm getting ramen."
Take that, you little pissants! Naruto, the GREATEST HERO IN KONOHA HISTORY don't give a about your petty concerns. Get him some ramen and get the outta' his way!
This is the Naruto I missed. The arrogant a-hole that does cause he feels like it. The safety of the village hangs in the balance? Screw you! I gotsta get me some noodles!
dude might be a top 30 of HIS time but top 30 of all-time? He would have to be as good as Paul Pierce, which he wouldn't I think. The ceiling of him wouldn't preponderate the 05-07 Josh Howard imho. Smokey was also a solid defender back then, though Kawhi's durability will be better than Smokey since he doesn't smoke weed (as far as I know)
Better chance of Kobe Bryant earning a 6th ring.
Rogue seems to remember Josh Howard as a top 10 player in the league or somethin
Smokey in his ephemeral prime was a legit #2 on our team and was safely a top 20 player in the league back then imho, not sure if he was top 10 though while guys like Pierce and t-mac were still balling at their highest levels.
I think that he will develop into a great player for the spurs but I think it's too early to even think about Leonard as a top 30 all time player. He isn't even an allstar yet.
I recall you making a comment earlier that Josh was at one point arguably the Mavs best player... Saying he has arguably better than Dirk is placing him in the top 10
OP making a bold statement but i agree with it.
literally the gift that keeps on giving.
I was thinking more around top 50 but I guess top 30 should be doable.
top30 all time? what fkn you clowns sucking?
if you said top30-50 now in the nba, then we can agree on
He had moments when he outperformed Dirk,but,no he wasn't close to Dirk.
Kid is very good, and very likeable, but I don't see him getting to that level unfortunately
It's not a coincidence that your first sig image is a pic of Towelie getting high, because no sober person would post this.
Maybe in the Southwest division, but.....................

after them 20 it's pretty wide open, if you win about 2 rings as an alpha you could get into top 20 quite easily if your career lasts, about 30 of the top 50 all-time players are sidekicks that won along the greats so even if Kawhi is a 2nd option on multiple championship teams he could easily get to where Pippen is. Which in my opinion he will.
Pippen first 2 yrs(he came into the league a year later as well). Based on the stats you could argue that Kawhi has actually had a better career start than Pippen, identical in steals, better rebounder and a more efficient scorer, especially from the 3, doesn't foul nearly as much and if we go advanced Pippen doesn't even stand a chance, Kawhi is a much more efficient scorer and less turnover prone and his offensive win shares are way better compared to Pippen's. I'd say based on the first 2 years Kawhi has the package to be a better version of Pippen, at least offensively. Pretty much the same size, freakish wingspan, huge hands and weighs 10 pounds more. Based on all this data me and my scientists have gathered I'd say it's just a matter of time before Kawhi takes over this league.

Youre a complete ing re if you are going to actually sit here and try and compare Pippens first two years and leanord and use that as a basis of saying he could turn into pippen. That is straight up the dumbest ive read in a long time and will assume that you are either the biggest re ed fanboy on here or you just got into basketball this postseason and have never seen pippen play.
Btw you serious have malone and stickton on your top list but no zeke or pippen?
Leonard will be a solid player of the Rip Hamilton caliber. He will never be top 100 of all time, much less top 30.
