Colin Cowherd: “If Kawhi Leonard in two and a half or three months is holding up the championship trophy he’s a top 10 player in the league all-time. And I’m going to say it today. He’s a TOP 5 PLAYER OF ALL TIME. You tell me ‘winning’ matters. As of this morning he’s in this very elite club: in the history of the NBA you’ve been a Finals MVP winner with two different teams – Kareem, LeBron, and Kawhi. Here’s another club where you have been a Finals MVP AND a Defensive Player of the Year: Michael, Hakeem, and Kawhi Leonard. You dominate the Finals, so you’re the best player in the biggest games, and you’re also the best defensive player in the league. Wasn’t that always the thing with Jordan? You needed a stop and you needed a shot, THAT was Michael. We’re not done, now let’s go to the VIP, GOAT club, where you been the best player in the Finals, AND a Defensive Player of the Year, AND an MVP of the All-Star Game which is the world’s best players and you’re the best one there: Michael and Kawhi. Bruh, how many more clubs you gotta be in?? All the guys he’s in the club with are top 10 players.” (Full Audio Above)
