But the conversation quickly took a turn when O?Shea mentioned Kawhi Leonard.

O?Shea Jackson, a die-hard Lakers fan said: ?I can?t figure out why this happens to Anthony Davis, it’s so unlucky but he has played more games than Kawhi?. After which he got into a heated debate with TJ Jefferson who stated that Kawhi has more championships and finals MVPs than Anthony Davis.

O?Shea undermined Kawhi?s accomplishment by saying that Kawhi started his career with Gregg Popovich and the big three at the San Antonio Spurs and that he doesn?t watch the Los Angeles Clippers play. ?
