    They probably go over these questions in pre-show meetings and he puts it on himself to play devil's advocate on these topics. Otherwise, it's not a debate. Not very good for ratings/views. You'll see him smirk every now and then when the others are questioning his stance on certain things.

    What legacy did he have to begin with? His first chip he was the Spurs 4th option on the team and only got the FMVP because he “held” LeBron to 28 ppg. 🤦🏾‍♂️ Imagine getting an award simply because u “slowed”LeBron down enough that he didnt average 35 ppg against u. Then the only reason he won a second chip was because 2 of GSW’s best 3 players suffered season ending injuries. 🤦🏾‍♂️ So if we’re going to be real about it what actual legacy does he have?

    Lebron was 28/7/5 on 57% FG. Kawhi wasn't stopping him at all. Spurs just shot lights out all series. If Kawhi doesn't add to his resume, he will be remembered more as a trivia question. He will fade away. He doesn't give you anything else to grasp on too...and I think he is cool with that.

    Only reason Kawhi has the Toronto championship is because Kevin Durant and Klay Thompson got injured in the Finals. Otherwise Warriors would have swept them or won 4-1.

I agree with Acho, most people will remember Kawhi for his injuries and bringing load management to the league.
