At least this time he has an actual torn meniscus, as opposed to "thigh soreness" or whatever it was in 2018![]()
I mean, yeah, it's his nickname or whatever. But this guy talks like he's found his parents' stash and was already brain damaged. If he wants anyone to take this seriously, this ain't the way to go.

Like someone said earlier, whoa did the Spurs dodge a bullet in not giving him the supermax. Highly unlikely the Spurs win a le with him the year he went to Toronto.
He would’ve sat out for us that year Toronto won. The only reason he played was for the contract. The dude is done as a premier player. He will be a Grant Hill except with les. I mean the dude couldn’t even play 3 straight games without tearing a mcl.
That being said, as a Spurs fan it’s nice being vindicated. Now everybody knows what we already knew 5 years ago. He’s damaged goods
I think the accurate diagnosis is torn vagina.....
Parker called dat out ugly
parker called him out and leonard and his uncle pouted publicly, then used parker as a scapegoat for why he was upset with the team. manu and TP just got sick of his and that was that. the dude lacks any social skills (although his social skills are significantly better than his sister's).
Kawhi could’ve likely eclipsed Jordan if healthy, but that’s a big IF. I have come to terms that the Spurs had dodged a bullet not signing him a supermax and the big frustration he would’ve been, not knowing when he is going to be available. It’s the manner of how he did it his exit, sabotaging any chance of getting a good haul and making the Spurs look bad, is why we still talk about this jerk
I wouldn't say eclipse Jordan, but he could have ended up winning 4-5 rings if he was healthy and decided he actually wanted to win.
Kawhi was a copy of Kobe who was a copy of Jordan. Ever make too many copies of copies? They degrade.
In my eyes Kawhi when healthy was better than Kobe. The only thing Kobe could do better than Kawhi was being a playmaker. Kawhi had a better fadeaway, better post up moves, and was physically stronger than Kobe. Kobe was more athletic than Kawhi but that's the only thing physically he has on Kawhi.
Except in basketball skills progress, with science, better conditioning, load management, etc.
Kobe had all of that, and wasn't as good as MJ.
MJ Bulls didn’t go up against Timmy, Kobe did![]()
I'm not talking championships, I'm talking game. MJ had more.
Parker didn't even call Nephew out that bad. He just said that everyone else plays through being hurt. That's it.
yeah, uh huh, sure…
and my aunt would have been my uncle if she had had a penis…
Back to Kawhi. It’s a big IF healthy, and had he stayed under the watchful eyes of Pop. Kawhi is much stronger, better lockdown defender (just ask LeBron and KD), much efficient scorer without a lot of wasted energy. But most of all, Pop would’ve shielded him from any drama, and Pop is a genius in getting the most out of his players, not to mention a genius in adapting his plays to his personnel. Who did MJ have? Tex’s alter ego, Jackson? Pop >>> Jackson
We can agree to disagree.
I don't even like Kawhi but if he never had health problems and was serious about winning then he would have won a few more championships. Very few guys are as good as him or even better than him in the current league talent wise.
MJ and Pip were two of the fiercest defender in the league…until they weren’t. LeBron could lock down tiny guards at one time. All wing players lose that ability, and frankly the desire once they cross their athletic peak at 27-28. Even if he had never been injured, Kawhi would have fallen from elite back into the pack of good defenders about the time the Clippers got him.
sure
but you can say that about anybody
its just not reality
what if this had happened - then this would have been the result
But it did NOT happen.
The original post I applied to was about speculation of Kawhi being better than MJ if he stayed healthy. I was just replying with my own speculation of what I think Kawhi would have been had he been healthy. Hence the post was not about reality to begin with.
pretty simple -
In a fantasy world - Kawhi (or any other nba star) - would be better than MJ - if x, y and z had happened instead of a, b and c!
In reality - kawhi - was never and never will be as good as MJ - it did not happen - he has a degenerative injury -
so it is most def about reality.
I'm going to keep it simple the posts I replied to was all about speculation then you got bent out shape about it. Now you are playing the deflection game by bringing up "reality". If you have a problem about speculation which sports deals a lot of with what if scenarios and situations, then don't be a dumbass and respond to those post.
I also never said in my speculation post that Kawhi could have been better than MJ if he was healthy. I said he could have had 4-5 rings total if he was healthy and took the game seriously.
