^^^ I'm Happy, everyone here is Chubbs

Kawhi is a no nonsense winner

Kawhi is truly the closest thing we've seen to Michael Jordan reincarnate - not Kobe's weird tribute band act, not LeBron's desperate-to-be-an-icon bit

Kawhi is clearly a great teammate

Most importantly, Kawhi is an agent of change, a one man culture shift that put a historically underachieving club over the hump. If we're honest, credit where it's due to Masai Ujiri, but Kawhi almost singlehandedly made this possible.

There's no bitch in this man's body. He's anti-bitch. He's the most authentic basketball player we've had since Tim Duncan. Ironic too, because Duncan gassed Popovich up into thinking he was a genius. That ego would come back to haunt him and ultimately cost him the best player in the world. Hubris is something.

I hope he stays, but he owes Toronto nothing and I think it would be as amicable a parting as we've ever seen should he go elsewhere. (Kyrie Irving should take notes - on accountability and professionalism)

I'm sorry.

I'd kind of quit the boards anyway, but thought it was worthwhile to show up for this L. I misread that scene in the worst way, with little to no information other than the same dogshit twitter "reports" we all see. My bad. Plus, just in the spirit of being a good dad and trying to keep a positive energy at all times, calling anyone on the internet "bitch-made", much less someone I've never even met, is like the LAMEST thing a person can do.

Cheers to Kawhi Leonard, my favorite player in the league.

Nope, still FILF's Serena post.

Hope fatherhood is treating you well and Happy Early Father's Day.

..For what its worth, there were plenty of people that over-reacted to the situation (good, bad, etc).

The point is that we can all be mistaken. We can all change direction, without losing anything. Truth be told, you gain greater understanding through healthy debate.

In this way, we all win.

*Btw: your recent assessment of Kawhi was damn-near perfect.

Looks like I'll be archiving 2 threads about this.






*skatin' the rings of saturn*


..and miles to go before i sleep...

If I remember correctly, you did the same after getting drubbed in that TI thread.

In fairness, what Kawhi pulled off from that Spurs circumstance to now is pretty damn remarkable. One of the most remarkable, compelling stories in all of sports, in recent memory.

Even if you were wrong- which many of us thought from jump- nobody could have accurately anticipated just *how* wrong, because nobody could have foreseen just how superhuman dude was going to be.

That's board man, after all. Board man gets paid.

Kawhi don’t owe anyone shit

He bet on himself and won

Greatest playoff run I can remember

KaWhi gets all the Ws

I’ll take my L.

Hope you are well

And hindsight's 20/20. It's not like "most stable organization in the NBA needlessly alienates star player over health concerns leading to said player going somewhere else and immediately winning a title" was a thing everyone but you saw coming.

say he got lucky AF with embiid, kd, klay et al getting hurt and that weak ass bounce off the rim. shoulda filf'ed this one up.

I was wrong as hell too.

I had to eat a case of humble with my Gurley prediction 2 seasons ago.

Plus, Bags has more L's on this board than anyone.
