    This is a test:
    If anyone can stay on subject.
    I'm not referring to Kawhi Leonards overall shooting, obviously fantastic as for a while he flirted with 90/50/40.
    I'm talking about individual trips down the floor.
    If it was a rare Kobe Bryant trip here, a rare Kobe Bryant trip there I'd say fine. Even Tim Duncan did it.
    But we're seeing too many. Some games Kawhi Leonard is having like 5-6 Kobe trips down the floor.

    What is a Kobe trip? Kawhi doesn't take a high number of shots per game.

    On offensive possession in which much better options were available.
    One where for example Kobe would completely ignore teammates and take (force) and miss an ill advised shot.

    Kobe took ill advised shots at a high clip. Taking a quick shot isn't a Kobe shot, it's just a quick shot. If Kawhi took them at a high clip and played no defense on the transition, that would be a Kobe possession. He'd have to throw a teammate under the bus for not rebounding his miss.

    So he did. What is your point?
    "If it was a rare Kobme trip here, a rare Kobme trip there I'd say fine. Even Timmy Dunkar did it.
    But we're seeing too many. Some games Kwa is having like 5-6 Kobme trips down the floor."

    Taking a quick shot isn't a Kobe shot, it's just a quick shot.
    A forced ty shot can take place at any time during the shot clock.
    smh.

    I explained the difference between a quick shot and a Kobe shot. You've not shown that Kawhi's shots are Kobe shots. Saying he takes 5 or 6 of them is saying every one of them is at a high clip. Where's the threshold?

    Basically you're using a circularity fallacy here. You're expecting me to accept that your definition of a "Kobe shot" is just taking a quick shot in transition or going 1 on 1 before setting up a play, but you've not established that and I don't agree with it and I explained why. For one thing, there's no such thing as a "Kobe shot", only Kobe-like shot selection. Are you saying Kawhi has poor shot selection multiple times down the floor?

    Forcing up a shot isn't a Kobe-like play either. Kobe's bad shot selection wasn't forced shots, but planned shots he wasn't really capable of making at a high enough clip to make it better than a pass to Howard or Gasol.
