Warriors can't defend decently athletic wings.

I like Kawhi, but he's still raw offensively. A 25 year old Bryant or Jordan would have 30 points in this game.

Kawhi is a jump-shooter/postup scorer not a slasher like 25 year old Jordan. Kawhi's game is similar to Carmelo who used to get handled by Bruce Bowen when he was the same age.

, even career net negative defender Kirby handed Melo his ass defensively in '09. I remember Melo destroying Ariza, and then Phil switched, and Kirby shut down.

Midrange post players are too easy to defend these days. You need a dribble drive game in addition, or you'll just get smothered.
