Pop is liable to lose it on this one. You have to admit he has always been straight up and generous towards his players. If kawhi really is doing this, Pop will really feel let down. Hope he schools him through all this... particularly uncle Denny

Spurs are slowly engaging trade talks to rival teams to submit their offer. Hmm was did after the meeting? Good as both sides are amicable and will work on the best trade or that both admitted shortcomings and will talk more to resolve into getting the Supermax? I sure hope it’s the latter. We get Kawhi back and all the other pieces will follow, may even be LeBron. He leaves and it’s a rebuilding process for years yikes

They did meet, but still, there are many conflicting reports. Some say it went well and will have further discussions in the future and others that Kawhi has a beef with Tony and that Spurs are encouraging other teams to make an offer for Kawhi.

The next two days might change our Spurs for ever.

Yeah well Tony needs to retire like now. If he gets another contract he will be sitting at the very end of the bench all season long. And no other team in the league will make him a starter.

San Antonio Spurs (http://www.espn.com/nba/team/_/name/sa/san-antonio-spurs) coach Gregg Popovich traveled Tuesday to Southern California and met with Kawhi Leonard (http://www.espn.com/nba/player/_/id/6450/kawhi-leonard) prior to Thursday's NBA draft, league sources told ESPN.For weeks, Popovich has been working to set up a meeting with Leonard to discuss the issues that have fractured the franchise's relationship with the All-NBA forward and caused him to make public in the media his desire to be traded, league sources said.

Leonard wants a trade to Los Angeles, preferably the Lakers (http://www.espn.com/nba/team/_/name/lal/los-angeles-lakers) over the Clippers (http://www.espn.com/nba/team/_/name/lac/la-clippers), league sources said. He has privately maintained that he no longer wants to play in San Antonio and will eventually alert rival teams considering trades for him that his intention is to sign in Los Angeles when he can become a free agent in 2019, league sources said.

The Spurs are unlikely to be motivated to facilitate a deal to the Lakers, league sources said.

Leonard, a two-time first-team All-NBA player, can become an unrestricted free agent in 2019. He is eligible to sign a five-year, $219 million super maximum contract with the Spurs this summer.

Leonard had told confidants that he did not want to sit down with Popovich and has been purposely difficult for the Spurs to reach recently. Among the issues, Leonard is angry over what he believes was the Spurs' mishandling of his quad injury, and he remains irate with public comments from teammate Tony Parker (http://www.espn.com/nba/player/_/id/1015/tony-parker) and Popovich that he felt were not supportive of him, league sources said.

The Spurs' official priority has been to try to talk with Leonard to work through the issues, league sources said. That has been communicated to those teams seeking trade talks, although the Spurs have encouraged some rival team executives calling about Leonard to present an offer if they so choose, league sources said.

So far, the Spurs have been largely reluctant to give teams guidance on the players, or packages, that would interest them in trades, sources said.

Such bullshit from Leonard and Uncle Dennis. If it was Pop, Tony and the medical team, Leonard wouldn’t be saying only the Lakers. If he wants to go back to LA fine, but throwing the team under the bus in a lame effort to protect his rep is an asshole move. Please expose this douche bag Pop.

My thought from a business perspective, no team at this point is willing to put forth thier best offers as in terms of talent for Kawhi since he will not commit to longer than a 1 season. Now my logic would tell me the longer you hold out the worse the deals will get down the line. So do you deal now or take the chance on getting less in return.

Or do you hold pat with Kiwi until the latest date possible too see where LBJ signs, then at that point trade him to the opposite side of the country thus avoiding have a Super Team from being built. You run the risk of getting less in return but you avoid another potential foe down the road, and this team will not be any worse off than this past season making it to the playoff's. So it is a win, win in my book.

He doesn't want to patch anything up. He's purposely making himself "difficult to reach" -- while he's still under contract with the team.

This seems to conflict with the story that he was at Pop's wife's funeral services. If he was that irate with Pop and did not wan't to communicate with him, why would he be there? Maybe he was trying to save face? It's just weird.

So Cowturd confuses per usual.

It is important to point out Woj’s report was that Leonard told his own confidants he was avoiding Popovich. That is not something Leonard’s camp would leak, because it paints him in a bad light. Far likelier is that it leaked from the Spurs, in which case there’s a good chance they have their own people inside Kawhi’s circle, reporting back what they say.

What’s that nickname Popovich has again? Something about the CIA, I think?

If there was any prohibited contact with a player under contract, the Spurs likely already know about it and have it documented.

06-20-2018, 10:05 AM
If they met yesterday I'm sure everything will be kept real tight lipped on the Spurs side, meaning any rumors would be baseless until draft night when I expect Spurs (if indeed the plan is to trade) to start searching. Spurs will still play patience if no good deals are offered probably going all the way up until training camp more likely. Hopefully Popovich convinced Leonard that he needs to expand his options to the East or else he is going to leave a lot of money on the table and look foolish. We shall see...

Honestly, the Spurs best move is a sign and trade for the max, make the lakers have to give back so much that they gut their team for him. Then Kry will be on a shitty team the rest of his prime years. And also force the lakers to give you every draft pick they have over the next 10 years. Once the Lakers pay the farm for him, fans will turn on him and he will want out of the fish bowl just like Howard did.

kry is no Kobe, and him and uncle dennis are going to find out how ruthless LA can be.

They already have two max slots open. Meaning any trade now will open the flood gates for PG and Lebron to join Kawhi
That core would beat the Spurs for the next 3 years at least.

Haywood was sayin on NBA radio that spurs would rather take pennys on the dollar than give Kwahi/Camp what he wants. Spurs are much more open to taking a deal to the Clippers than Lakers if he wants to be in LA. Spurs don't want to help create a super team (LB, PG) with lakers. That Kwahi is upset that they called his family his "camp" and that tony crossed the line about comparing injuries (guess its a "no-no" for nba players...). So by extension, tony's words are Pop/Spurs words.

If Kwahi refuses to sign an extension with anyone, forget about Tatum or even Brown from Boston. Rozier may not even be obtainable from Boston. If we are getting crap back, no need to trade him. I'd rather suspend him for the season for conduct detrimentable to the team and let him walk. Walk away from $80 million? extra in money and lose $22 million? in next year's salary. F him.

Spurs are in rebuilding mode, the next 3 years are nothing but fodder, it's all about not building the Lakers Mistic during those 3 years. If the Lakers want Kry, they need to be hog tied to that 40 million a year contract for 5 years. I have always believed that Kry was made into what he is by the system, he is a great two way player magnified by the Spurs System. It will become evident moving forward and magnified when LA turns on him like Dwight Howard. He isn't built for the media spotlight like Kobe and Magic, he is going to wilt like a flower in the desert.

I call BS on this. You're telling me that Kawhi is turning down millions, if not the Super max, because of something a player that may not be on the team next year said in an interview off the court to local media. If Kawhi hadn't been such a drama queen, that interview wouldn't have registered beyond channel 4 news. He's either petty to the point of being inconceivable or, more likely, this is just an excuse he's using to deflect and hide from the fact that he wants to leave SA to go to LA.

Only Kawhi's side benefits from the LA stuff (if that is what they really want). Woj didn't know something simple like the meeting already happened on Tuesday yet he's the one putting out most of the info about the situation.

Lol. Sorry. But your not making sense. Lakers mystique will be heightened and back to when Shaq and Kobe were winning championships if you give them Kawhi. Lebron, and PG now. All 3 of those guys are highly linked to the Lakers and coincidentally (I think not) they have room for them. This makes them favorites to win the championship for the next 3 years over Warriors. So Spurs have a conference filled with Warriors, Lakers, and Rockets super teams. It's not like PG and Kawhi are old. They could be eliminating the Spurs for the next 6 years. Popovich will work with any team besides Kawhi ti the Lakers I feel like. We need to stay in the top half of the playoff bracket in the west which we can still do without helping form a super team.

It's probably significant that Pop was required to go to San Diego for a meeting. This is the mountain going to Mohammad. IMO this means there is no going back to the status quo ante. Kwahi is gone and the only thing left is the details on the max contract and team to be traded. If he really is adamant about going to the Lakers, that limits the FOs ability to maximize the value of the trade coming back.

Was curious why people think Pop going to San Diego is a big deal. Obviously Kawhi is disgruntled. Why would he go to SA? Rumors were Pop was taking care of personal matters for the past week so he probably wasn't in NY at that time anyway. Pop and Buford having their plates full is an understatement but Pop going to SD to talk to Kawhi is due diligence at this point I think.

It's coming, in time. Pop's obviously not shy about saying what he thinks, the only issue currently is that doing so would hurt what leverage the Spurs have left. But the claims by Leonard's camp about the Spurs not handling his injury is no small thing.

Which is total horseshit. It was all in his head. He basically had a quad bruise that he convinced himself could be some career ending injury. Anybody on the Spurs medical staff that can't diagnose a quad injury should turn in their license. They got it right. Mishandling an injury to him must be "I am still in pain". Poor baby. But if the MRI's shows nothing serious wrong, there is nothing wrong. And no magical rest or rehab is going to forever fix your little aches and pains. Duncan was what like 24 when he had his knee first operated on? He played in various degrees of pain going forward. Got pretty bad towards the end.. And he dominated and won rings.. Guys like Westbrook who plays with a fierce aggression have had injuries that require surgeries. In fact 3 surgeries on the same knee.. Yeah I am sure he never plays with any aches and pains. Leonard will never be a great player again going forward IMO. He showed his true colors. Mentally fragile and soft as hell..

Guys like Westbrook who plays with a fierce aggression have had injuries that require surgeries. In fact 3 surgeries on the same knee.. Yeah I am sure he never plays with any aches and pains. Leonard will never be a great player again going forward IMO. He showed his true colors. Mentally fragile and soft as hell..

Don't forget that Tim also played with Plantar fasciitis.....God I miss TD!

Oh yes.. 2006 and missed almost zero time during the season and dominated in the playoffs.. Anyone who is on KL side here is a goof. Who the Fuck Sits out an entire season with an injury that requires no surgery? Fucking Kidding Me..

Which is total horseshit. It was all in his head. He basically had a quad bruise that he convinced himself could be some career ending injury. Anybody on the Spurs medical staff that can't diagnose a quad injury should turn in their license. They got it right. Mishandling an injury to him must be "I am still in pain". Poor baby.

Not to mention Manu with all his injuries, TP with his injuries and according to Dr. Jason Garrett of Airrosti said this morning that LMA knee is in bad shape and way worse than Kawhi's injury but still played the whole season! That's a copout and he's a loser for trying to blame the Spurs just admit you want to go home you damn mute!

Yes he wants to go Home however, this injury shit is the real deal as far as him being Soft and just refusing to play. It took him long stretches to come back before. Expect more of this to come. KL says he is hurt, and the team is frustrated with him sitting it out. It is not over.. Be wary Lakers Fans..

Spurs should force Leonard to play next year and ban his uncle from any Spurs facilities. That might get him to open his demands to not play any team but the Lakers. Love to see the prick squirm having to play with teammates who are professionals and think he’s a complete douche. A year of hell for Kawhi and if he pulls any injury shit sue his ass for pay and damages.

He could be dealt for Picks tomorrow night. If he is NOT, then make him report to camp and face the music for his actions. Wait it out..

Lol. Sorry. But your not making sense. Lakers mystique will be heightened and back to when Shaq and Kobe were winning championships if you give them Kawhi. Lebron, and PG now. All 3 of those guys are highly linked to the Lakers and coincidentally (I think not) they have room for them. This makes them favorites to win the championship for the next 3 years over Warriors. So Spurs have a conference filled with Warriors, Lakers, and Rockets super teams. It's not like PG and Kawhi are old. They could be eliminating the Spurs for the next 6 years. Popovich will work with any team besides Kawhi ti the Lakers I feel like. We need to stay in the top half of the playoff bracket in the west which we can still do without helping form a super team.


we gave Dennis Rodman to the Bulls for next to nothing, and they get 3 titles, Spurs win their first Four years later and 5 all together. Kawhitter is a great player, but he is also enhanced by the system. Paul George, Kawhi and Lebron are good, but I have a feeling they won't be enough to stop Golden State.
