If they face each other in the playoffs, Bron is gonna look his age. Kawhi might be a quiet guy but he absolutely is a competitor and will make sure to get the Bron assignment. And when Kawhi isn't on him, they'll throw PG, Morris and sometimes even Beverly at him. Bron got serious issues if he plays the Clips. He's gonna struggle mightily to get by guys.

And on the flip side, Kawhi's deadly midrange game is going to make Bron look silly. Actually, knowing LeGoat, he'll defer the Kawhi assignment to his teammates to save the embarrassment.

Kawhi is the best player in the game by a good margin if we are talking which one player you would take for a 7 game series. The only guy on his level is KD if he is even just 85% of what he used to be.

Guys like Giannis/Harden/Chuckbrook ball out in the reg season. Kawhi saves his best for when it matters most.

Last time lebron played playoffs, he averaged 34 / 9 / 9 on 62%ts, while leading a team to the finals that won 19 games without him the next year.

Has anyone else noticed that the warriors were severely depleted last year. Or that the raps are currently on a 60 win pace without Kawhi?

Let's cool the jets on how good Kawhi is. He has never been remotely close to as good as 15th season LeBron was. Remains to be seen how good 17th season LeBron will be. I'm inclined to think current Kawhi might have an edge though. And the clippers are certainly better top to bottom than the lakers. So, once again, if the clipps win, let's not make it JUST about Kawhi v LeBron.

Last time LeGoat played in the playoffs, he was 33 and much closer to his prime. And 2018 was probably his best playoff run for his career in terms of carrying the O-load. He didn't have a Kyrie/Wade that season.

But that was 2 years ago. You forget what Kawhi did last year? Just watch Toronto this year, they aren't winning sh*t. There is a HUGE difference between being a 50-55 win reg season team and a dynastic, championship team. Kawhi is that difference.

Easy to be much better than everyone else in the playoffs when you take 25 games off during the regular season for "maintenance". Giannis, Harden, LeBron, etc don't have that luxury.

I've said it before, but Kawhi really is given the kid glove treatment on here, he doesn't get criticized for anything. He can sit out an entire season after being cleared to play, recruit an All-NBA player to join his next team, pick and choose which games to play, has the luxury of missing 20 games and still have his team make the playoffs.

He is a great player, probably the BITW, but he gets held to the lowest standards for a superstar I've ever seen. The Clippers could lose in the 2nd round and nobody would care

Take the best player off pretty much any championship team in history and they ain't winning sh!t. That statement says nothing about how great kawhi is... Just that he was able to turn a already very good team into a contender, who were able to defeat a depleted opponent in the finals. The same could be said of at least a dozen players in the NBA right now... not saying that kawhi isn't BITW right now, just that the raps winning last year is not a case in point.

Thing is that Lebron is probably in a better shape than Kawhi, who's had knee/quad issues for the past 2-3 years and who constantly needs load management. Kawhi rested for 20+ games last season and was still limping in the Playoffs. Lebron happened to pull his groin but he's never had a serious injury in his career and he's on pace to play about 78 games this season to like Kawhi's 60. Kawhi's also coming off a Finals run while Bron had 2-3 extra months of rest last year.

Here's what an ex-player and a great basketball executive had to say about LeBron:

"I think when he leaves the game I think his legacy will be huge. Near to where Michael Jordan’s legacy has been. He is someone I admire a lot. He competes every night and he doesn’t take the nights out."

"It was just a jinx man. I didn't mean anything by it. Like, you do know LeBron is my favorite player right?"

I do think if they had matched up, Kawhi would have outplayed him. But, Kawhi and the Clips choked. Sometimes stars choke. I fully expected the Heat in 2011 to win a ring but even Bron himself choked.

I want nothing more in the NBA than Lebron to get his 4th ring.

So Kawhi didn't destroy LeBron who eliminated the team Kawhi choked against. All of that en-route to a finals.

But hey, you can always root against Bron next year :confusedshrug: In the meantime he is still BITW.

Lebron has been my favorite player easily since he entered the NBA lol. I never "root" against him, always for him. But Kawhi was thrashing him objectively in the regular season so it made sense that would continue if they matched in the playoffs.

It's amazing that posters on ISH will immediately try to "attack" someone when they are trying to be non-biased.

Honestly, tell me why you think I have ever rooted against Lebron? Just because I am a fan of a player doesn't mean I can't criticize them.

Attacking you? Think you're getting a little emotional right now :lol

You were wrong here just like all your other predictions against LeBron.

No big deal though. Be better next year.

These two words are all that you have left now.

LeBron would've obliterated him.

As for the Lakers vs Clippers, the Lakers would've beaten them comfortably.
The Lakers had just beaten the Rockets and have completely reinvented themselves by figuring out how to use their small-ball lineups. Look at the minutes Howard and McGee have played against the Clippers throughout the regular season. The less those two played, the better the Lakers did against the Clippers. Had this series happened, neither of the two would've been on the floor unless Zubac was playing for the Clippers. And the Lakers small-ball lineups, which were still bigger and longer than the Clippers small-ball lineups would've demolished the Clippers.

None of this matters now because Kawhi pulled off the biggest choke job in NBA history.

Yes, most of my predictions against Lebron were wrong. But that also means all of my predictions/expectations FOR Lebron were right.

It's just strange how so many ISH posters recently think Lebron winning a chip with somehow be "me getting owned"...Bron winning numbr 4 will be the best thing for me for the NBA.

He had a big choke, but easily not the biggest choke in NBA history. Are you like 13?

Lebron himself had a much bigger choke in 2011. Steph in 2016 was also a bigger choke.

Actually this was one of the few threads against Lebron that I wasn't trolling :lol

The recent threads in the playoffs, those were absolutely troll jobs.

We all know you were adamant on LeBron losing to Kawhi in the regular-season. And then "falling to" Portland and Houston in the playoffs. It is what it is.

You want LeBron to win his 4th now, huh? I probably would too after him proving me wrong over and over again.

Enjoy the parade.

Lebron himself had a much bigger choke in 2011. Steph in 2016 was also a bigger choke.

LeBron lost to a team that swept the defending champions Lakers and won 4-1 against the Durant-Westbrook Thunder.
Curry lost to the NBA champions.

Kawhi choked not one, not two but THREE double digit leads to a team that went on to lose 4-1 in the following round and were an open Mike Conley 3 away from losing in the previous 1st round.
And that's not even considering his atrocious 1-13 shooting in the second half of game 7.

In a world of choked 3-1 leads, Kawhi's choke takes the prize. You could say that he won the championship of choking this year. At least he won something. :oldlol:

And for the record, Kawhi's 2015 first round choke against the Clippers who went on to lose in the following round to the choking Rockets is also easily bigger than LeBron losing to a team that swept the defending champions Lakers and won 4-1 against the Durant-Westbrook Thunder in 2011.

I guess 98% of my posts speaking VERY HIGHLY about Lebron and rooting for him on ISH since 2014 don't matter anymore? Honestly you are overreacting to my recent threads. The thing about NBA ball is that MATCHUPS matter. It is very possible that the Lakers lose to the Clippers in a playoff series, even though the Lakers beat the team that beat the Clips (think 08 Hawks taking 08 Celtics to 7 games, but 08 Lakers only took them to 6). And Lebron scored 21ppg on like 38% shooting against the Clips in FOUR regular season games. Do you think Lebron would perform offensively better against Kawhi/PG/help defense compared to the Nugs? I don't think he would.

Let's be honest, the Lakers were FORTUNATE that the Nugs came back to beat the Clips.

I take the FULL L for this thread, but the vast majority of my threads during the bubble were troll threads.
