"Kawhi Leonard gets away with things that LeBron James and Kevin Durant would be crucified for": NBA fan grabs the attention of the NBA community with hate laced rant about the Clippers star

Fan brutally calls out Clippers star Kawhi Leonard on social media, and the NBA community has been going crazy

 

Kawhi Leonard has been the center of quite a bit of controversy during this offseason.

First off, when he got injured during the postseason, the player decided to not sit with his teammates, but instead sit in the VIP section. Of course, he has the option to do so without repercussion. However, the gesture didn’t quite sit well with fans.

However, what has really gotten fans riled up, is Kawhi’s delays in re-signing with the LA Clippers. In fact, it has gotten to the point where there are even rumors of the star potentially leaving LA to join another contender completely.

These rumors have brought some serious backlash along with them. And frankly, with all the ruckus now, this post by an NBA fan sums the player’s perception perfectly.

“A diva, a snake, selfish”: NBA fan goes on hate ridden rant on Kawhi Leonard

There aren’t many that question Kawhi Leonard’s ability on the court anymore. The player is a straight assassin on offense, while a complete monster on the defensive end of the floor. However, as we said earlier, it’s his off-the-court antics that get on fans’ nerves.

Well with that being the case, it seems the player caused one specific fan to spiral a bit out of control. Take a look at the post below.

Yikes.

To be fair to the fan, Kawhi does indeed get away with an awful lot, because of his reserved personality.

But seriously, isn’t that going a bit too far.

At the end of the day, we as fans have to remember these players are human too, and can think for themselves. Otherwise this disrespect will likely never stop.
