You make it sound like Kawhi will be guarding Curry.
He'll be guarding a combination of Klay, KD and maybe Green at times.
KD isn't making the finals, he may feature if its a long series but I don't think he'll be in the first 2 games from reports.
What I mean is that people are pumping Kawhi as the best player in the world in some sections and I don't think Kawhi can match Steph Curry on offence when he's on, in fact he can't, no one can, simple as that.
Harden is an all round offensive maestro iso player and he got tanked when Curry hit 2nd gear in the last two games.
Both Kawhi and Curry are the star players, both are who people look to, to drive the team forward and win games, I'm saying people sleep on Curry because he can't D-Up like other bigger players but if he gets a hot hand, he'll destroy the Raptors.
Whether its his dribbling, ball playing, handle, passing or step back 3's from yards behind the D line, if he gets hot their toast and kawhi won't be able to either stop it or get his team back in it to win.
........... now if Curry is having an off shooting game then yes Kawhi will be fine.
Watch the shot at 5:10 mins in against the Spurs ......... frankly that is fkin ridiculous.
