There's been a lot of kawhi slander this season. They can laugh now but cry later
Remember last year, nobody was talking about him during the regular season but soon as the playoffs started, they were on his dick
Reason over Dogma ya feel me, they gone learn
let them sleep bro mark my words he will be better in the playoffs coming up as long as he is 100% people seem to forget that he started the season dealing with his pateller tendon injury and still is you could tell he's much better since game 1 the start of the regular season though. Since both these 2 previous games against the Warriors and Denver he was dunking pretty hard so his explosiveness is coming back it's only a matter of time until his knee back to 100%.
@E 20 when he dominates in the playoffs you can have the last laugh my man all Kawhi fans will.
lol drake just made a song called that your from the future
Kawhi is an artist on defense and now he's become an artist on offense. He's still going to get better. Sky's the limit for my guy.
Man imagine how scary he would be without that knee injury. He wouldnt rest too much and he would properly be able to go off throughout the whole season and the playoffs without his knee hurting. His speed would probably be a little faster too and he would play with more intensity. He would definitely be contending with Bron and Giannis for MVP right now
Defense takes more energy than offense, wayyy more, no wonder he load manages.
Hell yeah
This
Yea but MJ used to play the full season.
@@JahleelX-xx9wd kawhis offence and his defense is alot more, we can say michael jordan has better offence than kawhi leonard, and that is true, but back then there wasnt as much touches, the game is much fast paced today, so kawhi has more touches, he obviously does rest more than he should, but hey he has 2 rings, probably one this year and the ring with the Raptors, see it for yourself, the amazing plays he did, the clutch shots he hit, and he was also walking strangely in the playoffs so he wants to make sure he doesnt get some type of injury, with a team like that, Kawhi could easily rest but still win rings leading the team when it really matters, just like mj who did the same, like kobe, like lebron, Kawhi does rest alittle bit more due to him having leg problems, and it's clear, but he also plays with heart full out when hes on, and we are acting like he plays like 5 games, he plays alot.
@@JahleelX-xx9wd Yah MJ is the GOAT haha.
his defense at 4:24 🔥 that whole possession was beautiful to watch
Defense wins championships
ChildishTey lonzo did that once last year i hope lonzo can be as good as kawhi one day
This possession shows how dominant he can be in defensive end....Kawhi is one of the top 10 defensive players of all time and probably at the very top as far as all time perimeter defense.
@@fatos4n3mukujtuarberisha97 top3
I can keep watching his defensive whole day
SAME THOUGHTS ME HAVING LOL
Kawhi is a defensive SAGE!!! The way he reads the offense is amazing!!! It's like a great quarterback picking apart a defense.
Watching his defense in a live game doesn’t do him justice for how active he actually is, when you slow it down, you really get to see how disruptive he is on the defensive end... you can’t show him the ball, plus he’s big and strong enough to run through a pick, that’s how he’s knocking the ball out of the ball handlers possession most times on the pick. He has the long reach, huge hands and great timing. Elite level defense, prob the best I’ve ever seen since Scottie Pippen, may even be better than Pippen
It is very hard to play defense today because of the rules.
Spurs kawhi is the best perimeter defender ever.
KL2 KLAMPGODS definitely. So many people overlook his defence on the spurs
Great Work !!! An historically great perimeter defender.
Thank you for this. Defensive highlights are my favorite from Kawhi.
Me too. Im a baller its hard to play def than off
Appreciate these highlights, the kind you don't usually see from big outlets but the kind I'm always after.
There's a big margin between the Klaw and the second best perimeter defender. People think of PG13. But he's no where closer to the klaw.
Facts
@Char Aznable it's not where you start, but where you finish
Ever heard of Giannis
Don't show the ball to him, you will lose it
no future at all fax
This is Kawhi's specialty 1:45 pocket in screens. Elite timing = Kawhi level.
Only Kawhi can do that ONLY
More like inhuman hands and long arms.
I been watchin all hes defensive plays since miami vs spurs finals match up where there is a rareclip that lebron is shaking his head when he see's kawhi checks in to the game. Thats when you know ur in deep trouble 😂😂😂
Da most complete player in the NBA 💪💪💪
Definitely 🤝
The greatest perimeter defender!
And one of the greatest perimeter shooter
Or maybe one of the best 2 way players
this dude have utra instinct
This is a veeeery smart player: he keeps his head/eyes rotation to successfully read plays; he stays in between pockets to steal traveling balls. AMAZING
And just averaging 27.3pts-7.5rbs-5.2asts in the process in 32mpg... No biggie.
We all know what he can do. Thats why he is 2 times finals MVP.
Amazing anticipation and quick hands!
There's your defensive player of the year😍
I don't think it's just his athletic ability that makes him a great defender, a lot of guys exert energy on the defensive end, he looks like he's effortlessly just doing his thing even without exerting a lot of energy. He's a natural defender
He probably has more steals every night than what they show on stats
Would’ve been a 10 minute video if he played back to back games
THE KLAW DPOY
He should win it every year but they wont give it to him because he miss games🤷🏽♂️
@@hs4a085 truth
@@hs4a085 then dont miss games...
Yimba Iyoko dont worry about it! If he wants to take the whole season off then so be it.
The number 1 player right now don’t @ me
The best to ever do it!
He always gives his best when he plays no matter what
Love these videos! They’ve helped improve my defensive game a whole lot more. Could you do Dejounte Murray’s defense from this season, please? Thank you!
Love it. Lock 'em down, my man.
Murray link below. Pt. 2 coming soon!

Best hands in the league maybe all time...and top 5 recovery guy man to man all time...in terms of lateral quickness id say only above average but can recover for a steal or a block at an all time great level.
Defense wins championships
people nowadays don’t even realize what happens on the defensive end, and they wonder why Harden isn’t a champion 😂😂
Best player in the world for mines, KLA🖖 2 , such a special player, makes defense look so easy
wow!
My favorite player 😎
Best defender in the game period!!!
@Real Talk Best 1v1 pereimeter defender. He's off ball defense and rim protection are weak. An Giannis is better.
@@rgonzalo511 You're the only person who thinks that on the planet!! Lol.. tell me you're joking...🤨
@@howlcittv7434 People who's livelyhood is analysing basketball players for the basketball teams that hired them. Say the same thing Giannis is a better defender overall. I didn't come up with this out of the blue. Kawhi isn't a good offball player, he's slow and very reactive in that role. Best 1v1 perimeter defender fine. You're a casual that's why this is news to you.
@@rgonzalo511 You have the right to your opinion but I don't see it that way. I watch literally every game he plays and to me and a lot people l know feel Kawhi is the best. His overall effect on offenses can't be disputed. He's like a shut down corner, offenses don't try to operate on his side of court period!!Ask the Greek Freak...he witnessed first hand last year. He's definitely the best perimeter defender in the game. I think we all can agree, today's game is played outside in. Which makes perimeter defense more important than ever.
@@howlcittv7434 That's fine. And Kawhi is the best iso defender by far. I just one to point out one thing. Today's offenses feature alot of motion so offball defense is just as important as iso defense. And that's were he struggles. Not hating on Kawhi just trying to point out that he isn't perfect. No player is.
Kawhi mvp
2:38 reminds me of what Jordan did to Reggie Theus after saying theres no a way a rookie could replace what he did for the Bulls, after they traded him to make room for Jordan who they were about to draft.
3:16 - Kawhi knew that play. From his time with the Spurs he knew exactly what was coming.
Kawhi be putting niggas in solitary confinement🔐💪🏽
When you know your really could play in any area of the NBA no mater what year it was or is.
We need a third One on Kawhi defensive prowess
Look at 4:24 freaking monster 🔥
Thought i saw 4 hands for a second there
Man really, 1 on 1 he could shut you down at the perimeter. You really need picks to get by him but his long reach can poke the ball out. Damn... how is he not DPOY again?
James Harden left the group.
Goat defender
Ring time coming for Kawhi again
Kawhi is a monster that's it!
THIS IS WHAT SEPARATES HIM FROM THE GUY YOU THINK IS BETTER THAN HIM WHOEVER THE GUY YOU THINK IS BETTER ISNT
I remember Spurs vs Heat Nba final the camera looked to Lebron when Kawhi was subbed in to guard him. Lebron had the biggest grimace, knowing he going to have to work his ass off to score. R.I.P Black Mamba. I will give Kawhi the "Black Cobra" in your honour.
Don't try for the steal or the block first. Just try to take away space. That's it people. Move your feet so your body is in the offensive man's operating space. Do that and blocks and steals happen.
He deserve DPOY this season please! 2020
A one-on-one between Kyrie and Kawhie would be the ridiculous.
Kawhi is like a silencer bomb..
His lockdown defence is even harder than Max. security prison defence.
Kawhis offence and his defense is alot more, we can say michael jordan has better offence than kawhi leonard, and that is true, but back then there wasnt as much touches, the game is much fast paced today, so kawhi has more touches, he obviously does rest more than he should, but hey he has 2 rings, probably one this year and the ring with the Raptors, see it for yourself, the amazing plays he did, the clutch shots he hit, and he was also walking strangely in the playoffs so he wants to make sure he doesnt get some type of injury, with a team like that, Kawhi could easily rest but still win rings leading the team when it really matters, just like mj who did the same, like kobe, like lebron, Kawhi does rest alittle bit more due to him having leg problems, and it's clear, but he also plays with heart full out when hes on, and we are acting like he plays like 5 games, he plays alot.
I don't know how to rate his defense but Kawhi's arsenal is too much to handle.
Active hands
Snatching the ball with his Klaws
Hahaha thats my idol
do NOT try to screen leonard
MJ played defense like this every possession and led the league in scoring at the same fuckin time. Oh he also played all 82 regular season games.
Not as sharp as his spur days but still a top defender
I DON'T CARE WHAT NONE OF THESE NBA PLAYERS SAY WHEN KAWHI GET IN FRONT OF THEM PREPARE YOUR ASS FOR A LONG NIGHT LOL GO CLIPPS!!!!
Lizard hands
I know these guys got pride but i am telling you right now when kawhi gets in front of your ass you are in for a long damn night i don't care who you are.. lol lol
yup especially KD
The Klaw!!!
Man, opponents must have nightmares with the Klaw closing on them and shutting them down... hahahahahaha... I mean, if you dribble is not super tight, if you telegraph a pass, not to mention how he is paying to everybody, not just his man, if he is close enough any marginal mistake will be breakdown by his computer and he will end your possession... hahahaha...
