Is kawhis single year for the raptors the greatest mercenary year in the history of the nba? Possibly even north American sports. I can’t think of another example of one player doing more for a team in one single season.

“Luck is when preparation meets opportunity”
-He was healthy.
-Hit his prime (imo)
-Lebron left to the Lakers.
-Teammates were in form.
-KD got injured.
-Klay got injured.
Not taking anything away from him. Everything lined up perfectly.
I disagree about the prime part I’d say 2017 was his prime that knee really slowed down his defense and his offense a bit as well

Well I would say it was definitely 80 percent luck. He could have been traded anywhere by pop too. Wouldn’t have gotten that 2nd ring unless the injuries didn’t happen and if he wasn’t traded to a very strong team already.
Don’t forget the missed traveling call on the game winning shot against Philly.
Kawhi traveled when the ball got unbounded but hit the game winner. https://youtu.be/_NKzykMuLQ4?si=qdaSQEKJ5ZHiQeac
Lebron wouldn’t have made a difference at all. Those Sixers and Bucks teams were stacked. If the Raps don’t win that year it would have been the Sixers.
