The comparative

there's no such thing is way better than Kawai.

There's only a tiny little bit better than Kawai.

So you don't think is it Final's MVPs averages?

You know he's the leading scorer on a deep on a playoff team, making a deep run.

He's one of the greatest defenders who ever lived.

When I say way better, Max, I mean the debate would last all of about three seconds.

Katie in your writing management were saying, Are we going after Katy Healthy or Kawai?

By the way, Jerry West was the original guide, a pair to compare Kawai to Michael Jordan.

If you ask Jerry West to probably knows more basketball than anyone who the best player in the league is, I've heard him refer to Kawai that way in the not too distant past.

You may be right that the majority of executives would prefer a K D.

Let's pick up the younger pick up the phone.

Max, pick up the phone, call Jerry West and ask him what he feels about K D.

If you had your druthers, even if you like Katie a little better, he's four years old.

I listen to you what you're dialing, Max.

Is this injury worse for K D or worse for the Warriors?

And we can all see what's going on with the Warriors right now.

We can all see that that offense is hitting on all cylinders, but here's the deal.

Portland is the perfect opponent for the Warriors.

Without KD, Portland is the perfect opponent to see Steph and Clay go off.

And before this entire thing is over, the KD injury is gonna be worse for the Warriors than it is for Kevin Durant.

If they face off against Johannes and it looks like they will and the Bucks in the finals.

Then we're going to remember how much Katie was not a luxury but a necessity to this project.

Because again, my voice just just handled this with Max.

There's a lot of dribble in that's going on in a lot of activity.

Before he shoots, K D could be on the bench.

He's watching everybody shoot, do their thing and then all of a sudden, things that not going right and Katie says, Okay, give me the ball.

Now go back to your regularly scheduled programming.

Loves having the ball is great as he is, and I've seen them take.

I've seen them stop the bleeding himself.

I'm not taking anything away from Hawaii because he is great, but KD offensively is on another level.

Well, I will say this on another K D is a better player than Kawai by a little bit, in fact, and even defensively K d has gotten to be an elite defender requires a better defender.

But I'll tell you this this playoffs, we've had a chance to compare the two, and they were the two best player in the playoffs.

And until Katie's injury, Kawai was measurably better when it was closed.

But by every single metric look at plus minus, look a p e o not telling you.

Look at the counting stats that you like so much.

Look at the supporting cast that makes it easier or harder for him.

Why was having objectively the best playoffs even better than Katie was having the second best playoffs in my primary trending way have to share?

Look at Game seven against the Sixers and look at Game one against the Bucks.

Which way is it trending, though, Matt, that's not fair.

Not still playing his shooting percentages.

This colossus physical game you're playing doesn't last over the long, several reasons for that Number one.

That's not fair, because Kate, I'm being fair and saying, Let's stop it at the point, Katie got hurt so we can compare apples to apples.

They were both great as I'm saying Kawai was a little better.

If you wanted, like Kyle Lowry, what do we complain about?

There's not even one other all star really on the team, No.

Therefore, Kawai draws much more attention that teams about him all the time.

They know why I don't like You know what?

I don't like listening the max on this subject because Max was, say all of that and be incredibly defined, which I respect.

But then you'll remind us how great you know K d to be.

And what I'm saying to you is intended that you know what I'm saying to you is did Steve tell you right now?

Candy que de once again, you interrupted cause you know, my voice is jacked up and I can't talk over you.

But at the end of the day, no K d is all world.

So make a decision and just leave it at that because you disrespected them the way you talk about polar, he's just too great for you to say that.

You better So you're disrespecting Kawai because because you're ignoring the fact that K D has to defer to some degree because of who he is playing with.

In fact, he's heading show, you know, open because he's playing with please.

But Katie's been doing that ever since he came into the league he was doing in that Texas.

We're not talking about 10 years ago, which about right now, right talk about right now I'm talking about right now.

Five years ago, 10 years ago, 11 years ago, K D.

Has been doing what he's done his entire career at.
