Warriors fan or not, I simply cannot resist starting my video by appreciating how well Stephen Curry is playing this season. Curry is on a 10-game 30+ points streak at the moment I am making this video and is slowly making his presence known in the 2021 NBA Most Valuable Player race. Recently, one more great piece of news emerged amongst other Golden State Warriors news and this one is an absolute blast. This is something we were talking about back in my Free Agents SIGNING with The Golden State Warriors in the 2021 Offseason! Video and today we will take a closer look at the most interesting and influential player the Warriors can sign during the 2021 Free Agency spree this summer. We are talking about the man who dethroned the Golden State Warriors and brought the 2019 Finals MVP trophy home, Kawhi “The Claw” Leonard.
Before we start this discussion, I would like you to play sports analytics and try to predict all the pros and cons of this potential move. Also, I would really like to hear your opinion as I’m very curious what you, my dear subscribers, Golden State Warriors fans, and just passing-by viewers think about the Dubs’ future. Now grab some snacks, get yourself comfortable and enjoy this video. But before that, smash that like button, subscribe to the channel if you haven’t done so already, and hit that notification bell to get updates on our latest NBA content.
Let keep rolling
In the video I have mentioned before, I told you that Kawhi is currently playing for the Los Angeles Clippers and this team is a heavy favorite to resign The Claw, considering the fact that Paul George had previously used an extension to continue playing for the Clips. But the latest rumor that the Warriors are seriously planning to pursue acquiring Kawhi this summer changes everything.
We also should take into account the fact that the world of the NBA is very unpredictable and Stranger things have happened. Kawhi Leonard has already surprised us in the past with his unpredictable and very influential decisions.
This year Leonard is on a good pace, scoring 26 points in his second-best season in average field goal percentage of 51.5. This season, Kawhi is still one of the best two-way players in the whole league.
Let’s now discuss what are the biggest pros of the golden state Warriors acquiring the Klaw:
1. Kawhi Leonard would multiply the efficiency of the Golden State Warriors’ defensive game immediately, thus covering the Dubs’ biggest weakness.
2. The Silent Assassin has one more thing that his icon MJ had back then, an outstanding mid-range game. Kawhi still excels in this overlooked part of basketball.
3. The art of a mid-range jumper is something the league hasn’t paid attention to. Today it is all about lay-ups, dunks, and threes. A lot of threes. And it wouldn’t be fair to say that Kawhi can’t do that either.
4. Kawhi Leonard is exactly what the Warriors should be looking for. A great two-way player with huge Playoff experience and an imposing veteran presence. Kawhi, steph Curry, Green and a healthy Klay is a very scary picture which gives me the vibes of the unbeatable 2017 Warriors team. Signing Leonard is the quick fix I have been talking about in my previous videos about the Golden State Warriors’ future and oh, boy, this one is a 100 percent winner.
1. Cap space issues. The Golden State Warriors are one of the richest franchises in the NBA, however rich stays rich only if he spends his money cleverly. Even considering the possibility of a Wiggins trade + Kelly Oubre Jr. signing with another team, Golden State still would find themselves in a tough situation with the Steph Curry supermax resigning on the way.
2. One word. Superteams. Yes, once again, one of the biggest cons for us, the fans would have one more superteam on the horizon. While it is fun if you are a fan of one, it clearly doesn’t make any sense competition-wise.
3. Over-reliance on stars is what dropped the Warriors franchise from dominance back in 2019.
Kawhi Leonard to the Golden State Warriors is something that’s fun to talk about and what I’d absolutely love to see.
But What do you think? What is your opinion on superteams? What are the odds for Golden State to sign Kawhi? Do you think that Leonard would be a great fit for the Dubs? If yes – tell us the way the Warriors may obtain this player. And what is your biggest dream trade as a Warriors fan?
