Thanks for the post, it was a good interview if not exciting. The kid is a non-stop worker and gym rat...can't wait to see his second year in the system.

I love when he said that he really play video games when he's bored. He said when he's bored, he just goes to the gym instead and works on his shot and game.

This kid was destined to be a Spur. Doesn't say a whole lot in the interview but you can tell he's extremely motivated. Really liked how he said he wants the ultimate goal of winning a championship, becoming one of the best in the league, and how he keeps playing year round with really no down time.
I really hope Kawhi is in San Antonio for the long haul. :toast

I think this opportunity to scrimmage and practice against some of the best NBA players will make a major impact in Kawhi's development offensively and defensively.

Pretty much the only hope the Spurs have...and he's not going to be able to do it by himself.

I swear if this guy turns out to be Tim Duncan five inches shorter but also a Scottie Pippen clone...

Re: Kawhi Leonard Interview
Kawhi gives up 4 or 5 inches to Durant and is a better rebounder.
His corner threes and driving baseline dunks are boss too.
Did I mention he was 9th in the league in Offensive Rating?

Maybe Durant. No way I would trade him for Lebron though.

In terms of work ethics, I can't think of anybody in the NBA I've ever read about who comes close to this guy's reputation for obsessive self-improvement.

Re: Kawhi Leonard Interview
Are we sure the guy wasn't a secret project by Pop to develop the small forward version of Timmy?

Re: Kawhi Leonard Interview
This guy could be the X factor. Everyone talks about adding this player or that player, but no one mentions that Kawhi, as good as he was, could be significantly better.
Just a matter of time till Pop gives him the ball. If he learns to create off the dribble, and develops a mid-range shot, look out.

I really really hope Stephen Jackson takes Kawhi under his wing.
If some of that PA ruthlessness rubs off onto Kawhi, he can end up fulfilling the prohpecy of the Chosen One that brings balance to the force.
