Kendrick Perkins says kawhi reminds him of mj

[Bronbron23]

I've also said this. Defensively with there similar body type and big hands it's obvious. offensively kawhi is more of a poor man's mj with every part accept for threes. Any idiot who thinks mj wouldn't destroy this era should just look at kawhi. He's a top 3 player in the playoffs and arguably the best with respect to kd and Greek. I can only imagine what mj would do in this era.

You can tell he's been studying MJs game a lot

I said the same thing. The ability to dominate offensively without being ball dominant or 3pt reliant is almost unheard of in today’s 's league. Closest game to MJ in the league today

Jordan with braids. I've always been saying it

Let's just put it this way. Are you talking about Jordan with Pippen or Jordan without Pippen?

With Pip? Sure, he'd do very well.

Without? 1-9 failure

His midrange form and footwork look identical. What he doesn't have is the agility or fluidity going to the rim, more of a blocky driver.

[NBAGOAT]

he's not nearly as good a passer along with just being not as dominant. His iso game is similar but he doesnt post up that much like mj did and not as good either.

[StrongLurk]

Kawhi is similar to second 3-peat MJ for sure...but can't hold a candle to MJ 87-93.

Robot MJ is a pretty accurate description of his game, especially 2nd 3-peat MJ

In terms of pure playstyle (operating off-ball, secondary ball handler, and making the midrange his bread and butter) he's the closest to 2nd 3-Peat MJ we've seen since
