Whose side are you on? Kawhi vs PATFO

[DPG21920]

No other team, bar Golden State, is winning 55% of it's games without it's best player.

Dude, out of the 30 teams in the league this year, most all of them with their best player the entire season, only 5 teams have a better record than SA in the loss or win column

So of course almost any other team missing their best player let alone Kawhi level players would not win like SA has.

[duncan2k5]

Kawhi would be NOBODY had it not been for the spurs and Poop. Anybody thinking otherwise is a ing moron. The irony is that the same skills, at ude etc they helped him develop is exactly what he is throwing away, thinking that the small market/low-keyness of the spurs is hurting his brand.

Anybody defending him at THIS* point is a moron. Before this it was ok to speculate, but even Manu of all people has called his made ass out.

A whole lot of assumptions there...and i can bet the majority of them are wrokg...if not all

[ElNono]

Neither, tbh...

Clearly PATFO is unable to deal with ass players since Duncan and Manu were never one of those... that's a hit on PATFO...

Then Kawhi is being a ass and a ty teammate to boot, so that's a hit on Kawhi...

The biggest loser is Spursfan, obviously...

[TheGreatYacht]

Whatever it is, the damage is done. Both Kawhi and Spurs need a fresh start..Kawhi to LA for a fresh start and Spurs to Seatle.

Completely agreed and I'm sure most will agree. Fat Antonio should be fine with the Rampage....

[jdelar03]

Neither I hope a lot of this bull crap has been blown out of proportion if he doesn't feel right
then sit his ass and thankfully the Spurs hopefully still have the mentality of what's best for now might
not be what's best for the next 5-8 years and know what's more important of the two. If he's good
over the offseason then sign him to super max move on and win 2-3 rings.

New Poll...


OP is a got?

Yes or No

obviously yes, this has been settled for years obviously

[TXstbobcat]

Was at that game last night

[BSfromTX]

The facts

- Kawhi was misdaganosed medically by incompetent spurs doctors that forced him to play endangering his livelihood
- Kawhi is now cleared to play but refuses to play

The rumors

- Kawhi is unhappy with the Patty and Gasol Extension
- Kawhi is unhappy with the lack of recognition

Misdiagnosed? Incompetent doctors? Careful what you call facts.

Spurs have a record of being very conservative on injuries.

But I get it. Your in love with kawhi and think the spurs are nothing without him. You will demonize whoever to make yourself feel better. None of us know exactly what’s up but my money is on the organization as far as taking the high ground. Kawhi is too young, too new, and under an influence that would make me think he’s not being forthright.

I can’t see how anyone would doubt the organization before KL

Evidently you are even dumber than I thought. Go back to 2nd grade and learn what a fact is vs an opinion.

Go your aunt.

Yes. And I'd say that only applies to his special brand of baggery.

This seems to be lost on people. Now add in the third highest scorer (after Kawhi and his 9 games) was Gay who has missed 25 games. Then two very aged vets.

Well I was trying to dumb it down for everyone saying how bad our team is

[John B]

The Spurs couldn’t move on because presumably Khawi is coming. But never expected that he will play prima donna. I mean injury is a science. It’s either he is or he is not injured. Now the Spurs medical team says he’s clear. Unless Kawhi’s doctors see something else, but should be able to point it out. If not, they have to clear Kawhi. I don’t know the big deal.

[venitian navigator]

I'm with the PATFO simply because a player that's healthy must play and Kiwhi, for what I know, has been considered healthy from Spurs doctors...and probably from all the doctors he's been visited from.
I understand Kiwhi's reasons but they are not sufficient to avoid playing...in a team that, with him, could possibly contend for the le.
I'm inclined to think that the ultra conservative way he's following regarding his body is more a suggestion of his staff than from his doctors...and that all this is primarly, if not entirely, based on economical considerations...in that sense they see that a coming back at this point is a sort of lose-lose situation (thay can not gain more than the supermax they have already considered as his actual price, but few bad games and a fast elimination from contention could lower his value).
As i already wrote in an other threads, unfortunately, the IT situation is playing a role in player's mind these days...considering how easy it can be to pass from a max player status to a mid level player status...probably for as minimum as the risk can be, that's a risk his staff don't wonna play. Simply ther's too much money involved....

[Pavlov]

Spurs are now surprisingly good without Kawhi.

Completely dependent on LMA, but surprisingly good being cobbled together that way.

[dbreiden83080]

We don't have the same roster from last year. We lost three very productive bench players and replaced them with basically nothing. We handed out ridiculous loyalty contracts to Gasol and mills. We have a team now that plays inside out in 2018 and none of our "three point specialists" can even crack 40% from distance. We rely on fossils to bail us out. And we have no backup big men.

Take off your homer glasses dude. This team is very poorly constructed

We lost our best player and would be winning 60 again easy if he played. You know this. Why you or anyone would hate on Spurs MGT when all they have given you is glory is beyond me? All you can ask for every year is to be in the mix. They are in the mix each and every year. They have been since 1997. The Knicks have been dog since Ewing was traded. We are still really good in spite of this nonsense. To lose your best player and be in the playoffs right now speaks to coaching and MGT as a strength. Knicks Lost their best player, and now are 20 under .500..

Kawhi needs to get over himself.

If Kawhi were to succeed in forcing out Pop and his coterie of cronies I would climb off the fence and return to his camp.

this was hilarious


P.S. Pop really should have played Derrick White more this season.

[MoSpur02]

I'm still holding out hope the relationship (if it's damaged, which I believe is) can be mended, but I don't have much hope. This situation is weird and instead of it getting better with time it seems like it's getting worse.

Smart choice.
