Amid all of the discuss load administration and the L.A. Clippers’ legit probabilities of bringing dwelling their first NBA title, we’ve completely uncared for one blemish on the résumé of Kawhi Leonard. The incontrovertible fact that New Balance tries to promote the world that rapper Jack Harlow is a formidable opponent to “The Claw” on the courtroom is totally absurd. And Kawhi going together with it’s in all probability essentially the most ludicrous.
Leonard may need a profession in performing as a result of he put ol Jackie boy over like one million bucks. I get that we’re within the age of everybody being a star on social media, but when this was New Balance’s veiled try at remaking the Michael Jordan “be like Mike” commercials, we’re not shopping for it. Playing in Kawhi’s footwear won’t enable you or any of your folks to be aggressive in a one-on-one recreation with the two-time NBA Finals MVP. Or any NBA play, for that matter. Don’t imagine the hype.
In truth, the one one that appears to even be practically that delusional is Mr. Harlow. This man truly had the nerve to say he’s been informed that Kawhi performs like him. It should be the footwear. “They see like flashes of me when he plays…”
Talk about consuming your individual spiked Okool-Aid. This industrial made it really feel like Harlow stood an opportunity towards Leonard with out assist. Straight up, no teammates, no nothing, Harlow’s buying and selling buckets with Kawhi. Get the fuck outta right here. Indeed, Jack is cherished by his legions of followers and doubtless wonderful at what he does, however hooping on one of many NBA’s greatest isn’t one among ‘em.
