Look at MVParker's reaction to the 1st missed ft.As if to say "not again you clown ass boy"
Yeah, Kawhi really needs to make it up to them this year. Can't go get outplayed by Matt Barnes againCosting Tim and Manu another swan year.
When? LeBron was clearly the best player in both finals.
Kawhi raped him, Wtf were you watching?
KBL, 313, and Supercam showing photographic evidence and even some GIF's. Player fans can't argue with that
Hope Kawhi reaches his goals. Non player fan here
This ain't got a shot in at ever winning MVP.
That wasnt very Hall Of Famer, tbh.
17.8 6.4 2.0 1.6 1.2
28.2 7.8 4.0 2.0 0.4
Whats that? Lebron is the primary scorer while Kiwi has Porker Duncan Manu and Danny Green also makes his numbers.

Havent you seen those stats of how Leroy was affected by having Kiws guarding him?
You seem to forget how scared Lebron, looking to refs everytime Kiws was stealing the ball, faking hits to the eye and like that, thats how Kiwi got kicked out of game 2, 2014 was a sweep.
Le can have more assists since he plays point but he will never defend like Whi, but you better stick to points since guys like Drymouth Green even made Lebron score less, right? Spur fan my azz.
This is the I'm talking about. Only in the biggest Kawhi player fans mind would someone think Kawhi "raped" Lebron in the Finals. And Kawhi is my guy....the best player on the team and future of the franchise.
I would say something more like Kawhi "held his own" against Lebron. And that's not a knock or slam against Kawhi. If you have someone on your team that can go toe to toe with Lebron....that's ultimately a win.
I watched game 5 the other day....and I recall JVG saying something like this. They were showing a couple clips of Kawhi playing D on Lebron...and Van Gundy said, "Yeah, but Lebron is getting it done. But this is what you want someone who, even when he's getting it handed to him, is still up in Lebron playing hard nose defense." And he was exactly right. Lebron was torching Kawhi...but Kawhi was still trying his best to guard the best player on the planet. And doing a respectable job IMO...
I hope he does one day. But weren't those Blair's goal also?
Well, its was the biggest kickass in the NBA Finals history and Kawhi raped the most important player who was crying like a girl to refs because his flops were the only thing left, but what do I know.This is the I'm talking about. Only in the biggest Kawhi player fans mind would someone think Kawhi "raped" Lebron in the Finals. And Kawhi is my guy....the best player on the team and future of the franchise.

Keep cheering for Leroid ¨The Goat¨ Best player ever of the world of galaxies
You're confusing Kawhi "raped" Lebron with the San Antonio Spurs "raped" the Miami Heat. (It's okay....99% of player fans do this)
Two completely different things. Is this really that hard to understand? I think Astray 's post pretty much covered it. The guy who averaged less points, rebounds, assists, and steals somehow "raped" the guy who averaged more. Okay sure..........
Yup S&B is spot on. Wasn't "rape", "held his own" is all

Kawhi Leonard has been the primary defender against LeBron James in the NBA Finals.On the surface, it appears that LeBron James has not struggled against Kawhi Leonard. Video tracking shows that James shot 12-of-18 (66.7 percent) with Leonard as his primary defender in the first three games of the 2014 NBA Finals.
But those numbers don’t show the full impact of Leonard’s defense.
In Game 3, James had a series-high 73 offensive touches but attempted only 14 shots. James was guarded by Leonard on 65 percent of the Heat’s possessions with James on the court in Game 3, the most Leonard has defended James in any game this series.
Let’s take a look at how Leonard has made LeBron’s life more difficult in the NBA Finals.
Fewer shots
Only 17 percent of LeBron’s touches against Leonard in the Finals have resulted in a field goal attempt. That’s half the rate James has against all other defenders. That means Leonard has been successful forcing him to pass the ball or turn it over.
Fewer touches
Leonard has been successful keeping the ball out of LeBron’s hands. James has been held without a touch on 35 percent of the Heat’s possessions when he’s guarded by Leonard. Against all other defenders he’s held without a touch 25 percent of the time.
Fewer drives
James has driven to the basket on 13 percent of his touches against Leonard. That rate jumps to 22 percent against all other defenders. Leonard has been able to keep James in front of him and force tough angles to keep him away from the basket.
It all equals more Leonard vs James
Leonard finished a Heat possession on James 65 percent of the time when James was on the court in Game 3. James attempted only 14 field goal attempts in the game despite a series-high 73 touches.
Percentage of Heat Possessions
With Leonard Guarding James in Finals
The percentage of possessions with Leonard defending James has increased every game this series.
The Heat recognized the work James put in to score with Leonard on him in Game 3 and tried to adjust by setting screens. On 14 different possessions in Game 3, Leonard started a possession on James but switched off due to screens. That happened nine times total in Games 1 and 2.
James was 3-of-4 with six points and an assist in those situations in Game 3.
Whether or not the Heat overcome the 2-1 series deficit could depend on how successful James is against Leonard’s defense going forward.
I thought you had something up there honestly but points and rebounds seems to tell everything.
