    Honestly, i dont know if he has a ceiling. If his improvement continues like it has then he is going to shatter any ceiling we as fans have set for him. But if you have to label it, an all time great and maybe goat.

    To me it was obvious based off of his progression and potential. You saw flashes of it early on tbh.
    Got it.

    I'm just glad he has that ridiculous ability to improve almost at will.

    I said his roof was a top 20 all time player. He is gonna need to win some MVPs, but the dude is young, its scary, he has so many years to improve even more.

    Our family used to do custom tile work. We did Chuck Person's house and his ceiling was about 2 feet taller than avg. in all the rooms.
    Cool. That's interesting.

    This is true. (Except for the year and a half MJ retired). Kawhi could surpass him, but Pippen was voted Top 50 all time in 97. So are we saying Kawhi is already Top 50 all time? (or Top 65 adjusted for the 20 years since).

    Pippen, though, is the most natural comparison I can think of with the defense, the ability to guard so many positions from the wing, and now the offensive skills.

    The best compliment I can give Kawhi is he may become a self-defining person. In other words, there's no easy comparison with another current or historical player. Kawhi is unique. Closest current player is maybe Paul George.

    I can see why some didn't have such a high ceiling for kawhi. But you really can't doubt someone with such a crazy work ethic.

    Just gonna go ahead and revise my opinion: Kawhi can be the greatest player of all time. Better to be safe than sorry.

    He can be one of the all time greats but will be overshadowed by other players because he does not show much emotions.

    Could be applied to TD, and, in a way, even Kareem.

    IF KL can keep mixing up getting to the line with consistency in his pull-up he would be the best scorer in the game. Defensively, he's a top player. He has to show he can do it in the playoffs. He's awesome for sure.

    All this trolling...

    If you think this team has another Alpha not named Kawhi, you're so wrong.

    I don't believe in telling people to kill themselves nor do I condone it, but you're pushing me.

    It was hard to predict his ceiling because his role with the team in 2011-13 was mostly a defensive specialist and X-factor around the old big 3...but I always thought he had the potential to be elite at his position.

    The one thing I would NEVER have predicted was that he would become an elite 3-point shooter...people used to say his hands were too big to shoot precisely.
