When we get to all the things we couldn't get to:
The match-up between LeBron James and Kawhi Leonard is awesome for so many reasons. I don't even know how to start talking about it. It's on as I'm typing, and my brain is sputtering. The beauty of it is how unforced or manufactured their budding rivalry is. They're not from the same draft class. An ad campaign never approached one of them with the other in mind. The conflict is not about MVP votes. Everything about the two of them playing comes down to what happens in a space of 94 feet by 50 feet. They bump. They jab. They grab. They make fantastic plays. It's as Dick Vitale would say, awesome!
