Lol, Kawhi owns that choking got klay. Kawhi shows up when it matters. Regular season accomplishments.![]()
What do you expect the regular season is all the lakers will see.
Lol, Kawhi owns that choking got klay. Kawhi shows up when it matters. Regular season accomplishments.![]()
It's true though. Hahaha
Of all the stupid things posted in this thread, this one takes the cake for me.
I'm not saying Kawhi is a scrub but how many regular season MVPs does Kawhi have? That's right, 0. He's got 1 finals mvp that he might not have even deserved(btw Dirk has one as well).
Meanwhile Dirk is a former MVP who has lead his team to 2 NBA finals. He's also #7 on the NBA all time scoring list. His team is doing better than the Spurs and without him his team might not even be in the race for the playoffs. He's played in 16 more games this season and is playing fewer minutes per game.
As Phillip said, Kawhi is a really good glue guy but Dirk is more deserving of this honor than Kawhi.
Taking Klay over Kawhi is one of them tbh.
Put up 37 in a quarter against Kawhi then I'll be impressed.
Not for a realist. Klay's having a better season. The All-star game doesn't take into account career accomplishments. It only takes into account THIS year's accomplishment. Pretty easy decision, tbh. Not even one you have to sleep on.
As I read the thread I got that Venti's post was referring to this season, and I agree: Klay has had a better season. Still, from what it sounded like at first glance was that Klay is a better player, which just isn't true.
Did dirk lose in the first round as the MVP?![]()
Saying Kawhi has had a better career than Dirk is crazy. Hopefully Kawhi can reach Dirk's level where he can consistently lead the spurs to 50 plus wins every year once the big 3 is gone.
For an 2015 All-star invite? Sure I would 10/10, would do it again. If you think that's too outlandish then you need to stop sucking Kawhi's .
Klay has had better performances and he has had more chances to make his case for an 2014-15 All-Star nod than Kawhi.

Dirk Diggler has been his team's #1 for 15 years. In the process he has won les, MVPs and FMVPs inasmuch that he choked in 2006.
I get it, Kawhi is a proven playoff performer but tbh Prime Dirk over him anytime. You can't neglect a 7-footer who can post up and shoot, despite his deficiencies on defense, which we all know were fixed anyway.
The Kawhi has accomplished more than Dirk already post. Jesus H. Christ......
Chill bruv, I misunderstood your post. I agree with Klay > Kawhi for AS 2015.
Some posters just need to be ethered out of the Earth. Devoid of any logic and sense.
How can Kawhi have accomplished more than someone who has been number #1 on his team for a decade and a half and someone who has a championship and many more individual accolades?

fair point.
I was kinda too harsh bc I thought you were missing the point too, and you're one of the most level-headed posters here.
Kawhi > Klay, brah![]()
In fact, Kawhi >>>> any all star this season.
To be fair I would've played him over Boogie. Boogie has generated good equity this season, and I love Boogie even though he's crazy as , but his team is bad. But then Kawhi's been injured too much and it hurt his chances for an All-Star selection...
Agree that Leonard was out too many games to get a spot. It's just funny seeing everyone take your post out of context, myself included.![]()
Someone went full re and went ahead to state that Kawhi is more accomplished than Dirk. Of course someone had to top your moment of extremism.
Well, he has had good games whitout the Big3 and has scored at least 20 points in most of those games, not just last season but this season as well.
However, the best thing about Kawhi is that he has always responded to every challenge in his career playing at high level.
Klay is a great shooter/scorer but the difference between a champ and a contender is an all around player like Kawhi.But if we have to compare to Klay, Kawhi offers waaaay more guaranty in that regard.
Players like him who can elevate their games on both ends of the court in playoffs.

Let me start by saying I'm a huge Kawhi fan. BUT.....there is only one Spurs player in franchise history that's had a better "career" than Dirk. And that's Mr. Timmy Duncan.
Bonner has 2 rings.....guess he's had a better career than Dirk too.
