Koweeeeee Leonard wants out of San Antonio

[KobeOwnsDuncan]

[DAF86]

Aldridge also wanted out of SA.

[Mitch]

He deserves a better team, Tbh. Should go join Celtics or something.

The Spurs problem is that they are stuck in that upper mediocrity level because Gregg Popovich will not let them go below that. That means they're going to be good enough to compete at a semi high level which fools the eye of the Casual fan and keeps the front office from being pressured to make real acquisitions. Sometimes it works sometimes it doesn't.

They're in full denial mode right now. By the time he's in another team's uniform, it will revert back to the way things were after they lost to the Clippers. Kawhi will be a "role player" again and the picture of him at the free throw line during 6 will be spammed on a daily basis.

Do it Rob.

it's an open farm. just take your picks, sir Buford.

They were competing for a WCF Finals last year. If they're healthy, they're up there with everybody but GSW. Maybe the problem is that upper mediocrity is everyone but the Warriors.

On a scale of 1 to 10 how upset would you be if Kawhi reupped with the Spurs this offseason? Fwiw I think he's prolly gone, but the sources reporting it are pretty :lol.

y'all gonna lose him for nothing.

heck, he already credited kobe for improving his game. might as well bright him over to us.:lmao

kuzma, randle and Clarkson are pop guys. they all yours. :hat

They are so not :lol pretty much the anti pop guys... aside of kuzma of course, but even he would get benched right away at the first defensive lapse..

Jared Zwerling:

"I had a phone conversation yesterday with Dennis Robertson, Kawhi's uncle and business manager, who is based in New Jersey. Dennis called me and we had a nice chat. Before Dennis called me he said he had a conversation with RC Buford, GM of the Spurs, and said they had a great conversation. Overall, here's the consensus: the story is farthest from the truth. That was a quote from Dennis. We talked about the situation. Really, there's no issue between Kawhi and the Spurs. Kawhi has the utmost respect for Popovich and Buford. It's not about any issues internally. This is about not having any more setbacks. There's no re-injury right now. The focus is strengthening that left quad. It's really important because the quad is an injury that can come back and bite you. It's an injury you can get again and re-injure a lot easily, so it's about strengthening that quad and keeping Kawhi focused on getting back to that strength to help him into the NBA situations. That's the focus right now."

They don't make any real acquisitions. Rudy Gay (off the bench) is the best one they've made since Aldridge. Pau is ok but he's on again off again mentally. Seems committed to the start, but not to the finish. They've never had that "win now" attitude even when they've won everything. They trust in the process and believe that Pop and the front office can plug obscure players into niche roles and beat a team of all stars, because they've done it time and again, so it's not that the Spurs are doing it wrong but that franchise players aren't attracted to systems where anyone can be the focal point.

If Craig Popplevich and RC Lost It are going to still be employed in their current positions thru 2020 I think Kawhi should bail to a team that is sincerely pursuing a legit Championship.
If RC said "that's nutts" to the Patty-Pau-Porker destruction and Popplevich forced him to, then mercy for RC.

[Monostradamus]

:lol all this drama for a #2 guy.

I agree that it's a tough way to go. But I think it's the only way they're able to go about business as it stands. Besides the system, you've got to overcome San Antonio not being a city where a superstar will be in the limelight. So they've got to either find someone like a Leonard or Duncan that doesn't care about that. Unfortunately, most superstars are the opposite of that mentality.

But if they can get healthy, they might be able to find someone who only cares about a championship run and bump the team up a level. Still going to have to find the right supporting cast. The Mills contract makes me question their ability to do that.

Good luck.
