Colin Cowherd: “If Kawhi Leonard wins a title with the Clippers, you do get he’s moving into MJ and LeBron’s class? Won a title at 22, youngest Finals MVP besides Magic Johnson, goes to Canada... Have we ever had a guy win an NBA championship BY HIMSELF like this?? Tell me the last guy. Now, he goes to a third team and wins another title? He’s getting into very rarefied basketball air.”
Listen to Colin Cowherd explain newly anointed Los Angeles Clippers superstar Kawhi Leonard is rapidly establishing himself as one of the greatest players in NBA history, as his immaculate resume at age 28 rivals some of the greatest players of all time.
With two Finals MVPs with two different teams coupled with a handful of First Team All-NBA’s and two Defensive Player of the Year awards, Colin believes Kawhi will enter the rarified air of Michael Jordan and LeBron James if he wins a championship with the Clippers as the third team he’s brought glory to.
