I agree.I'm resigned to the fact that RC and Pop are about to be taken out to the woodshed via trade tbh
Hopefully they at least wait until LeBron is signed so they can sabotage the Lakers' chances at a James + George + Leonard superteam.I'm resigned to the fact that RC and Pop are about to be taken out to the woodshed via trade tbh

If you're going to get next to nothing, you might as well risk getting nothing.I'm resigned to the fact that RC and Pop are about to be taken out to the woodshed via trade tbh
Good things come to those who wait (especially if your GM is smarter than most).
I don't know why that's so hard for people here to understand. You don't have to get something if the something is garbage.
just assume that leonard is spent goods and this is a final offer. It's not, but the ability to move on from the cancer into the last fun teams of pops HOF career, rather than DRAMA DRAMA
I mean if Kawhi wants to act contrite and sign an extension so be it, but playing with a talented but whiny kawhi would cast a pall over the season. You'd assume he'd quit some point with any hesitation of injury.
If the spurs aren't going to win champioships with talent, then at least have a fun team.
Exactly. I'd rather let him walk for nothing than get a bunch of scrubs.
That's why you don't play him. You send him home like Phoenix did with Bledsoe.
Im all for watching Kawhi rot if we don't get an exciting offer.
Maybe that's not practical, but it would feel good.
^^^^Right here^^^^
That's just the beginning. Those guys will be in charge of the rebuild, too.
You can't just send him home -- that gives him an easy out.
You have to smoke him out -- make him face the cameras and explain how he "healed" over the summer but now he's hurt again.
Make him face the cameras and explain how he feels betrayed.

"...is that the Spurs have evidently not allowed any teams to speak with Leonard’s agent, according to Zach Lowe of ESPN.
“To my knowledge as we’re recording this at 2:19 eastern time on Monday, no team has even gotten close to getting permission to talk to Kawhi’s agent, and any team who is not in Los Angeles — and even those teams — should want to do that before they throw anything like the No. 2 pick to San Antonio.”
You know what, just send him to the Lakers and then let them sign Lebron and Paul George...it might be worth it just to see Uncle Dennis, Lavar Ball, Lebron and Rich Paul all butt heads together and redefine team dysfunction.
Does he even have an NBA registered agent at this point? Uncle Dennis is definitely not registered (Or is he?). Is Frankel registered as NBA agent?
Meh it would be training camp for his new team. I'd just let his skills atrophy.You can't just send him home -- that gives him an easy out.

Weve heard for years that the spurs med team is top notch one of if not the leagues best group. The Spurs have always been at the forefront of training and techniques to help the player. Example Pop monitoring minutes/ back2backs. Ins uting naps into their pregame agenda, and consulting with medical experts on mental health etc. the fact that you had a player tear his quad and recover in record time and play most of the season compared to a ing so called quad bruise and missing an entire season is laughable. Dude quit and I can’t believe it. I thought he had shades of an all time great.
Ok, so they’re moving pick 1. 3 team trade, Suns/Spur/Fakers.
Suspending him doesn't increase his trade value, it gives him an opt out from criticism and it makes the Spurs look bad. If they don't trade him then have him play, if he sits out then it only hurts his future earnings and makes him look even worse.
With regards to him going to Flakers....I watched a segment and Jalen Rose actually made a couple of good observations.
1. Spurs can take their time and wait until trade deadline by that time the Flakers would have to make a move and would probably sign Lebron and George which means even if Kawhi plays out the year he can not sign with the Flakers as they would have no money to sign him.
2. He made a point to say the Spurs organization is not stupid and will take their time and the only deal he would do would be with Boston which would include Tatum.
There is a lot of chatter for every team to get on the Kawhi bandwagoon like someone says it only takes one good offer and we good to go....
3. If we trade him and he leaves that team he is loosing like additional 30 million to sign with what ever team he wants to.....b
He also corrected his co worker who said that there have been no one actually talking to the Spurs about trades... He just smiled and said it takes two people to have a conversation and the Spurs are not the Cavs who gave away there PG for nothing. He did mentione they didn't trade him to the team he demanded he went to Boston.........
So basically he says Spurs have more control then what people think.

We need to look at our own fortress.
Why should we strengthen our Western rivals???? The West is loaded as it is........
There's another reason to keep Kawhi.
Kawhi did not just take $19 million for not playing last season, he sought to tarnish the heretofore good reputation of the Spurs as well.
If the Spurs act with class while Kawhi sits out another year, the situation, and who is to blame, will become apparent to even the most delusional.
The good guys and bad guys will become apparent -- the Spurs' reputation is worth it above and beyond all other considerations.
There are cancer clusters in the air in la.
I understand the thought to just let him sit for another year, I just think they'll want him to earn his money. Spurs likely have no reason or motivation to trade him. Maybe something looks good before February, maybe not.

Completely agree. This is the post of the day, tbh.
As for him being a cancer on the team, the spotlight will be on him and he'll need to decide if he wants show the world he's a pro or 'bad news.' He goes out here and gives a half-hearted effort and his stock will plummet. He's already going to lose tens of millions by losing the super-max.
