Puts him on the 1998 Jazz and they beats Michael Jordan and the Bulls in the 1998 NBA Finals.

No.

Kawhi was a top 5 player in 2017

Sure, but why would he succeed in place of Lebron, the better player? I don't think there's a single player you place on that Cavs team that changes the outcome.

He's saying add Kawhi Leonard to the 2017 Cleveland Cavaliers when they play the 2017 Golden State Warriors in the 2017 NBA Finals.

Oh, I'm so used to him swapping guys. So Lebron, Kawhi, Kyrie and Love against the Warriors. That changes the equation quite a bit. I could actually still see the Warriors winning because I think the core pieces fit better, but it's a 7 game series one way or another.

I don't quite know where to rank prime Kawhi as an offensive player.

I know how to rank them as a complete player or as a defensive player but I don't quite know how that gauge his offense when he was at his best.

Kawhi's 2019 ring was better than any of Lebron's rings.

With KD & Klay out in the Finals?

Major asterisk.

How do you feel about the bubble ring with Adebayo out and Butler's second option being Duncan freaking Robinson? Asterisk?

Or Lebron's 2016 ring with Dramond getting suspended? Asterisk there?
