#2 Kawhi Leonard and Gregg Popovich
Gregg Popovich is arguably the greatest coach of all time. Pop has this unique ability to turn normal players into great players. Unlike other great coaches, he didn't have the luxury of coaching a Michael Jordan or Kobe Bryant. Still he'll feature on every Player-Coach duo list there is in the world. The best player he ever coached was Tim Duncan and Kawhi Leonard is all game to change that.
Kawhi Leonard's trajectory as a player and as a leader was never in question, it was just a matter of time. He has been on the up ever since he entered the league.
Kawhi's first six seasons in the league have been as productive as anyone else's first few seasons in the league. He's a defensive phenom, NBA champion, and a Finals MVP. All these accolades, all these accomplishments have huge inputs from Pop. It's safe to say that Kawhi won't be as great as he is without Pop and that goes for many other Spurs players too.
