Kawhi Leonard vs. LeBron James | Basketball-Reference.com

I definitely won't disagree that Kawhi plays as good of defense on Lebron as anybody, but cut the hyperbole. I watched games they've played against each other. More than that, the stats don't back your claim that Kawhi has "owned" Lebron....

"Owned" insinuates Kawhi has a better statline than Lebron, or that Lebron would have a horrible career Statline versus Kawhi. Neither is close to being true....we all know he's had some bad games against Kawhi. He's also had some great games. Kawhi was his primary defender in the 2014 Finals, and Lebron punished him for 28ppg and 57% shooting. But Kawhi won MVP and "owns" Lebron. Lolololololol...

Lebron is a part time player much like Aldridge. It seems that way to me at least. Leonard's at least his equal at this point and there's much more to come. Hyperbole that.

Against the East ? Yes due to him forming these Super teams to do battle with 35 - 40 win teams every year lol

Let's see how these finals go and we can revisit this topic.

Two of these teams won 50+ games (two of the past three years). The competition may not be intense in the east, but keep in mind every other superstar is scared as hell to go to the east. There was no way in hell Durant was signing with any eastern conference team.

In fact, the average team they've faced in the EC playoffs the past 3 years has won 49 regular season games. Compared to 50 on average for Golden State's WC opponents. Not much of a difference.
