Quote:You're right. You said he wasn't a great defender. He's every bit a good of a defender as Leonard. He is an excelllent defender.
He is a good defender, but he didn't place in the top 3 for DPOY the last 2 years while Leonard won it both years. Sorry, but I hardly call that "every bit a good of a defender as Leonard".

Do you even know how many games he played in two years ago? George's play on defense is every bit near as good as Leonard.

Leonard is probably the best defender in the league, but you are moving the goalpost now. You originally said
Quote:I am calling Kawhi a top 3 player based on his presence on both ends of the floor. DPOY 2 years in a row and is now a serious offensive threat.
Durant, Westbrook, Lowry, and George are not great defenders. All great offensive players though.
You literally said that George isn't a great defender. He absolutely is a great defender. He is one of the best defenders in the league, even if he isn't as good as Leonard.
He is one of the best offensive and defensive players in the league. Maybe not as good as Leonard defensively, but better offensively and certainly still one of the league's best defenders.

Nope.Leonard and Draymond are on a different level to everyone else.
The reffing in that SA/OKC game was pretty embarrassing. I have never seen a team get "home" calls on the road like OKC does. It is pretty consistent. Next game should be interesting.
I don't know how anyone can say that Steph Curry doesn't create his own shot...

Do people say that?

Unbelievably, yes. He does it, routinely. He is phenomenal at it. He did it again to seal the deal. It was a thing of beauty.
Steph Curry is a bad mamma jamma, for a outside shooter and put on a show. I prefer scoring guards that can take it to hole and dunk on people.
Curry vs Westbrook. Gonna be awesome.
Scott Skiles has just stepped down as the HC of the Magic. Very surprising.
The Magic should bring back Dwight Howard.

With Skiles resigning this becomes more of a possibility.
Interesting tweets coming out about the rift between the FO and Skiles. *edit from TrueBlue Nation
@JoshuaBRobbins
Hennigan and the front office backed (and still back) Elfrid Payton as the PG of the future. Skiles did not. But that's just 1 issue.
@TermineRadio
My sources tell me Skiles told Hennigan he made mistake taking job in mid-Jan, before backtracking & telling him it was momentary insanity.
If Dwight Howard goes back to the Magic I will stop watching them until he's gone.
Curious to see if San Antonio gets the same type of preferential road treatment OKC has been getting the entire series. They aren't gonna go down easy.
Mark Jackson or Vogel would be my choice.
NBA stands for Not Bad At diverting attention from Football America...

I'd rather see Caitlyn in a bikini than to see DH in a Magic uni.
