Paul George On Why NOBODY Talks Trash To Kawhi Leonard 

Thanks for watching. Full interview here! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-zBbYzNNnWbA.html

You can tell PG really respects and admires Kawhi

Kawhi Leonard is silent but he's a cold blooded talent his emotional awareness is top notch his presence makes anything possible 🥶

He’s definitely the wing version of Tim Duncan lol

Kawhi’s father was taken out right in front of his own eyes... no amount of trash talk will stop a guy who has experienced that kind of scene and grown from it.

I live in Toronto and what kawhi did for the city that day we will be forever thankful and grateful for that championship and I was in the arena when he hit that shot from the corner was so loud it shook the building

"He's a surgeon, there's precision, there's no wasted movement" (on Kawhi) 💯💯💪🏽😎👍🏼

That video showing Kawhi locking up LeBron in the Finals was awesome, same for the Giannis getting locked up one also. When Kawhi is healthy, he’s simply one of the best two way players of all time. He can score from the midrange, outside, drive; he can be a perimeter or inside defender; he’s great in transition. Love watching him play when he’s at his best. His jumpshot is funny too because it looks so robotic and stiff but it just goes in somehow. The ball doesn’t really arc, it’s like he’s determined the optimal angle to not waste time in the air and he just hits it.

Why talk to him if you know he's only said like 5 words since 2011

They don't talk trash because they don't want him to focus on them

Kawhi is one of my absolute all time favorite athletes . I’m 66 yrs old and he inspires me to where I went and bought a basketball just to imitate his mid range game. Arthritis in my big toe prevents me from wandering further than mid range anyway. I love his game and razor focus.

Kawhi has sneaky athleticism. Because he isn't flashy, you don't realize how strong, fast, and explosive he is. Then add in his tenacious mind set, it wears people down.

The fact that he can shoot so well with his hand size is insane.

Facts he's a silent assassin

One of the most under appreciated Superstars ever

I agree, he's definitely underrated in his presence. His Toronto run proves it.

They don't because he won't give them a response lol simple as that..

People say hes like a robot, but imo he is one of the biggest characters in the league and probably the Most admireable. never talks more than he needs to, no Show and just lets his actions do the talking. A true role model

He's among my all-time favorite. No hype...just an absolute assassin on the court, does everything exceptional, when healthy.

Kawhi on the court doing freaky things and nobody else has an explanation for it…..bravo kawhi, salute

The claw is the ultimate STOIC never to high never to low in his demeanor goes about his work methodical . I enjoy his play two way players aren’t always the most flashy but they make bigger impact on the game when working on all cylinders.

He mentions trash talking at 3:15

With him on our squad in 2019, the whole city of Toronto knew we were headed for a championship before the season was halfway through due to the presence of Kawhi changing the culture of an already great team for the better. We've witnessed his greatness here in Toronto first hand 💯

Kawhi Leonard's midrange game and how he attacks reminds me of Michael Jordan. He is like a surgeon like Paul says. When he needs to take a 3pt, he does. When he needs to slash, he does. It's just Kawhi isn't on the floor enough.

When Kawhi is healthy and on the floor, he's arguable top 3 in the world.

Because guy is cool, calm, simple and humble

Kawhi and Tim Duncan have very similar public personalities. I know they both lost parents at a young age. Maybe that has something to do with it.

Prob my favorite Athlete/hooper because of how he carries himself. I'll never forget growing up as a mavs fan the year he got hurt, or it might have been the year before, he came to Dallas when he was still with the Spurs and he was going nuts and I'm like okay this guy has taken his game to another level.

Kahwi is criminally underrated, I don't care what anyone says

JJ please get Kawhi on your podcast!! I'm sure he has a ton of insight and stories to share, not to mention the constant jokes, according to Pat Bev haha

As a Mavs fan I can say for sure that the Clippers with a healthy Kawhi are scary AF

Just wanna say that the PG interview has been very entertaining, great stuff as always JJ

kawhi is a lockdown 7ft 3 wingspan and solid with big hands they dont want that problem its like jordan and pippen rolled into one player when hes at his best.

Kawhi is mentally strong. Green tried some of his dumb tactics on him, but Kawhi ran thru them like a warm up drill… had Green laughing at himself.

Kawhi understands angles and he doesn't move at 100% because that's not efficient. So he baits you into thinking you beat him and he will still very much be in the play. I've seen other guys do it. He's faster than you think. He may also move in a way that makes you under estimate his length and ability to reach

Kawhi leaving San Antonio was a tragedy. With his temperament and professionalism, he was born to play for Pop and the Spurs. They were preparing to build that team around him, and him leaving set them back 5-10 years. We’ll see if Wemby can shorten the timeframe on their rebuild

PG is one of a kind player too tbh. i hope he knows that. The fact he was able to come back from such a gruesome leg injury. And still play at a MVP caliber level. Who else does that?! snapped his leg completely. PG is inhuman

This was crazy insightful and fun. I love Kawhi and hearing this about him was beautiful

The last bit that PG said was what best describes Kawhi and what separates him from the other great defenders like PG himself.

Still waiting for Kawhi mic’d up

I love Kwahi Leonard, very much ❤❤❤.Very down to earth. He never want to have a trouble with the Nba players👍

The title says it all… much respect from the whole league. Don’t nobody want to be matched up with Kawhi

We need you back out here with this squad. Let's go JJ!!!🔥🔥🔥

This was pure gold to watch. Thank you to both parties.

Kawhi is a great guy. He's a killer on the court. Trash talk doesn't haze him and he never talks trash either.

6:22 is so accurate. Anytime Kawhi gets a crazy block I’m always confused how it happened. Extremely fast, stealthy hands

When Kawhi Leonard is healthy, I think he’s the best two way player in basketball. When you break down game film, it may sound crazy to some people but he’s one of the best players ever to touch a basketball. He is so strong he’s got that freakish wiry, Jon Jones Alex Pereira type strength that doesn’t even make sense. There are so many times he only gets two or three fingers on a ball and it’s stronger than a guy who’s gripping it with both hands. It allows him to one hand, the ball in Ways I’ve never seen. It also allows him to defend guys that are much bigger and it not tire him out.

When healthy, he is right up there with Giannis and KD as Top 3 players in the league. I really wish we see more of him.

Kawhi is the perfect embodiment of what a professional player should be. Hardworker, focused, humble, ultimate team mate. He is the opposite of most of today's entitled athletes, in any sports.

I’m a Bron fan but i’ll always remember that finals when Kawhi checked in and Bron literally mouthed “F*ck” cause he knew he was gettin’ locked up 😂. Prime Kawhi pre-injury was 6’8 MJ on defense. Edit: Don’t bother looking at the replies. Has nothing to do with this comment 😂

One day someone will get Kawhi on a podcast…. I wanna see someone pick his brain

Because khawi Leonard is a respected and reserved player.he always cool in is action

Absolutely no one in nba history could shut down your best player at every position and also give you 25 in the same night Kawhi has been doing that

Thank you for the Kawhi questions!

Imagine if Kawhi spoke/trash talked the way Draymond does and just had that same mentality/came across the same way. Players would straight FEAR that man 😂

I like Kawhi bc hes such a fun guy

Love that it’s just basketball all the time…well done JJ

'is he made of steel?' well, the man is a cyborg.

I Highly Respect P.G For Sure Hes Not A Hater And ReaL Honest Dude 💯🏀

Man PG is one of the humblest dudes out there.

His wing and the ability to play the game is amazing and other players wont talk trash to him because they know KL will beat them in both ways mentally and with his game..and his defense with his long arms make it a lot harder to pass over him so the claw is real deal when he is fully healthy can take you far I. The playoffs..

Kawhi is one of a kind player he is my idol and i like his quit atitude

What a GREAT episode!

That a real friend fasho how he was so happy to compliment his teammate

When kawhi really wants to try he really is unstoppable I remember in the playoffs against the mavs he scored 30 pts til halftime with out missing a shot

PG is absolutely right in saying that the person that's matched up with Kawhi that night knows that it's gonna be a rough night against him lol 😆

Love the pod 👏🏿

Very nice. Much respect. Three professionals talking highly about their crafts.

I just loooove to watch how effective Kawhi can be when he is at his best. It makes the special things he does look just so much better.. even when it comes to his ballhandling and skill moves. He all does that in such a small box.

“His fingers stretch further” 6:24 idk why that has me weak 😂

Man much respect to Paul for keepin it 1000

Dope clip

Hope we see Kwahi stay injury free and back to that Raptors form. Cauz when he's on he is MJ like

Kawhi is like a ninja

Dude stays focused. Hes jus not distracted or interested in the bullsht

Been enjoying Paul George's commentary

When PG was talking about his way of staying in plays I couldn't stop thinking about that no look steal he had against the 76ers, to this day...how the hell?

When I first seen him playing on that first Spurs team in the playoffs with the Spurs Championship I knew I was witnessing H.O.F. GREATNESS EMERGE.👏👏👏👍

Real talk real respect.

I actually dont know about this player so now I will binge this apparent legend.

Kawhi Leonard is the Bernard Hopkins of basketball: no wasted effort, intelligent movement, everything in control.

I remember what he did to Luka in game 7

Whyyy doesn’t JJ have a Milli Subs yet!!? Favorite hoop podcast . He doing it and been 🙏🏽

I liked JJ already but he’s actually one dem ones w dis Analysis/Podcasting/Storytelling just who he is being now I fw it bro!

He"s never playing to talk trash too

The average fan hasn't let it sink in that he hasn't been healthy since the ZaZa incident. Then reports came out that his knee problem is a degrading problem so it'll never get better. League lucky he's been injured the last 4/5 seasons fr.

Silence is Golden.

I’m glade y’all recognize his mid game! I’ve never seen anyone like that. His consistency with the mid. Theirs not very many players in the nba who are mid assassins u feel

No one can stop *THE KLAWWW* 🖐🏾

Lemme guess “don’t make him mad he’ll start trying and win” 😂😂😂

I will always be grateful for Clipper talk.

Is this the dagger 🗡️ 🏀 !!!! Legendary

I wonder how conversations with Duncan and Kawhi went lol

I’m a Clippers season ticket holder. I can’t recall the last game I went to where both of these phenomenal players were on the court together. I’m sure there were a few, but it sure felt like there weren’t many.

YES SIR, SO TRUE

They just dont want to hear that eerie cyborg laugh at the end of the game from the klaw .

Paul George basically describing Kawhi Leonard as Mr Fantastic

Patrick Beverley will beg to differ 😂😂😂😂😂

His stint with Toronto was jordan like . He was all time great type of good . He was unstoppable.

You are the best team ever this season. Continue to inspire people who likes basketball, i am team clippers🎉🎉🎉🎉
