Could have been watching the Spurs for decades if that's what you like, minus the excitement until recently :)

LOVE watching Kawhi Leonard - the guy is so entertaining from a strictly "that guy knows how to play basketball" kind of way

I've watched them a few times over the season and their players just don't do the same thing for me. Technically they are very good, I agree. There's an intangible in the way the Warriors play together that really increases enjoyment.

It's not just about winning. It's how they win.

Of course, the other thing is watching Steph Curry change the game. It's a wonder to behold.

You realize you just described the case for the Spurs for the past decade, right?

Spurs are fun to watch, but don't have Steph launching ridiculous bombs from anywhere. It's barely basketball anymore, and it's amazing.

On an interesting note, Kawhi Leonard's advanced stats were marginally better than Curry's as of two weeks ago. They're both equally exciting players in my eyes. Also, have you seen the size of Leonard's hands?!
