For example, Lebron saying Shabazz Napier was his favorite pick in the 2014 draft.

I once proclaimed The Simmons & Embid duo was going to be more dangerous than Stockton & Malone.

    Thing to remember is Kawhi was never a leader. He was in a basketball haven in SAS playing with Timmy at the end and then they kept basically the same team and swapped in LMA for Timmy.

    Then he went to a team in Toronto with an established culture and tone set by Kyle Lowry, a team that had been a top 4 seed for at least a few years straight.

    Only after that was he ever expected to be a leader and it’s just not really who he is.
