    Default IS Kawhi the new IMPROVED MJ?

    Kawhi has better range,
    Kawhi is a good deal bigger than MJ
    Kawhi is guarding guys much bigger and better than MJ ever guarded

    MJ was a better passer


    Is KAWHI the new improved MJ or just a taller less talented version of MJ?

    BOTH AMAZING PLAYERS

    MJ could never win outside of a system like Kawhi...He would of fell flat on his face and got 1st rounded by Orlando.

    The "Jordan System" didnt win games...it just produced empty stats like Kobe without Phil and TMAC


    at least ppl like harden/lebron/derozan/ect ect ect... can make it out of the 1st round consistently without a system

    The funny thing is that they are opposites in a way. MJ was a natural. He came into the league lighting it up. He didn't work on his game in the offseason or work out at all as a young player. He was also pretty emotional.

    Kawhi has totally made himself into a great player. He isn't intuitive at all. You can almost see him thinking things through before he makes a move. Rarely shows any emotion, a bball terminator.

    But they play very similar games.. Kawhi is darn efficient like MJ too..

    MJ's athleticism was a tier above Kawhi. Leonard's a decent enough athlete but his freakish wingspan and hand size is what evens the playing field. His combine numbers, for example, were nothing eye popping...worse than Harden's actually.

    MJ was better at every aspect of the game, especially scoring and passing, so no

    Yes he is. Me and My Boys call him Stiff Jordan. a little less graceful but the impact is all there. Hr's become an elite scorer as well.

    MJ was a better shooter despite not taking many threes

    If he decided to make his 3-point shot goat, it would be like his mid-range and fadeaway.. flawless form.. a beautiful jumpshot

    MJ was better at guarding guards and Kawhi forwards

    And MJ was the vastly superior scorer and passer

    And MJ averaged 8 rebounds in the 1997 playoffs when it was harder to get rebounds for perimeter players.. MJ probably averages 10;rebs today like westie

    Maybe Kawhi has ft's
