In two of the final 3 losses he shot 7-19 (38%)and 9-23 (39%)
Those are decent stats. Near 40% is not a bad game.
quote:
Combined to hit a single 3-pter in the last 3 games
People have become much to fixated on the 3 point shot. That isn't his game.
quote:
When Lebron, Westbrook, and Harden have these performances and get ousted prematurely, the critics (and MSB) crucify these guys.
What gives, gents?
Those guys are superstars, and are treated as such. Leonard isn't. He is on a TEAM, where multiple players share the blame and glory. That is both the beauty and detriment of superstar status.

2nd in MVP voting is a superstar to me.

It's a bad game when you average 50% over the course of a season.

He hit 2 a game and a 45% clip in the regular season.
The team (and his 2nd place MVP finish) was so dominant in the regular season b/c Kawhi shot 50% from the field and hit an efficient 2 3's per.
He's so well liked that people in this thread are even defending his terrible performances.
