Yeah I’ve never seen Kawhi want to win regular season games so much. He’s locked in man.

When Harden hit that 4 point play to beat Houston in November, he had a similar reaction

Have followed kawhi since king high school, sdsu, spurs, raps and clips. Can confirm its the most he celebrates a player since he got to the league. It does seem like he respects harden more than any other teammate he’s had on an nba team.

I’ve said this before, but I feel like Kawhi & Harden are very similar personalities, which is the opposite of what their media reputation would tell you (Kawhi is an emotionless robot and Harden is an emotional diva).
They’re both stone cold killers, fairly quiet, laid back and unimposing (they definitely have ‘aura’ lol, but not imposing about it), they both have that ‘class clown’ mentality by always cracking quick-witted jokes. It really pisses me off how the media and fans have ran with this narrative on Kawhi, like people actually think he’s incapable of understanding a joke or that he has no concept of what humour is…
Not to mention they’ve been battling against each other since the 2012 WCF! Those Rockets/Clippers regular season games always had that playoff intensity. And of course who could forget Harden’s infamous love tap on Kawhi’s butt after hitting a stepback 3 perfectly defended by Kawhi — it’s that mutual respect gained after ‘going to war’.
Pure speculation ofc but I’ve always thought they had very similar personalities.

This year really be feeling different. Of course as Clips fans, we know very much not to get our hopes up too soon, but any kind of optimism gets me excited. Go Clips!

Idk if he’s ever had any teammates who were capable of doing what James just did. Even PG would probably have dribbled that off his leg if he attempted that lol

Looks like he goes off to celebrate with himself 😂

Im pretty sure harden was his first choice to join him at the clippers so you can tell he’s really excited to finally play with him

These fake foul baitings are ruining the sport.. it’s a joke

He does that little move semi regularly when people make last second/clutch shots.
Its like he lets himself show emotion for a split second lol
