He is not going to come back at 100% in the playoffs. But he is going to come back. This is what Leonard is refusing to do. Thus people are really losing respect for him.
Dude... When has Kawhi NOT played through pain? So if he suddenly sits because he is feeling pain, something is definitely wrong... The pain Duncan played through never had him struggling to climb stairs after games... That's an INJURY... not just pain... Doctors miss stuff at times

Now if this is an issue that Kawhi's been having for years, since 2012 or so and he's getting sick of it, then I can understand him wanting to get this under control once and for all. That would be the only reason I can understand with him wanting to sit out. If it's not related to his previous bouts, and if he's been cleared, then he should be playing IMO.
But it Is an issue he has been having for years... My guess is that u don't cereal because ur mind is made up

Everything points to Kawhi staying, yet u guys make up scenarios in which he is leaving... Amazing... I bet if he was building a house in NY, u would take it as absolute proof... A guy who is so dead set on leaving that he is purposefully sitting out isn't building a house in the place he wants to leave

Learn your history man. Duncan had a bum knee with a knee brace that was something straight out of Robocop. He played through tons of pain. He played a whole season missing 2 games all year with a bad foot, plantar fasciitis.. Dominated in the playoffs..

I KNOW Duncans history... I'm saying it never has been bad to where he was struggling to climb stairs like Kawhi... Ppl on here were making a HUGE deal about how Kawhi was walking after games.... When Duncan was PLAYING, he never walked this badly... So obviously Kawhi is injured

U are purposefully missing the point.. YOU said Kawhi doesn't play through pain... That's obviously false since every other time he hasn't played, he was wither not cleared to play, or being rested by Pop
Re: Kawhi is not resigning here
So if he isn't playing now, something is wrong! And u can tell because his walk wasn't a simple limp... Dude was struggling... That's an injury

Is it definitely his house, though? Didn't someone say that he was building one for his mom a few months ago? Could it be her house?

I never said he was dead set on leaving but him building a house doesn't mean he is dead set on staying either. He can just sell it or rent it out if he signs somewhere else.
You're delusional if you dont think their will be serious negotiating to do this offseason especially with the supermax up for grabs and this lingering injury. It will all be used as leverage that could easily have him want to be in a bigger market to make up for the smaller salary Spurs might offer him because of his chronic injury now. If the Spurs offer Super max I believe he more than likely signs though.

"Leonard is refusing to play through pain"
it's apparently CHRONIC, ie long-term pain, and with risk of, or actual, degeneration of the tendons, muscles. Serious, chronic inflammation, and not just soreness amenable to post-game icing.

Could you please verify that this could cause degeneration? I have followed pretty closely but I do not remember reading anything about this.

If this is true, why is Kawhi trying to fleece the Jordan brand for a superstar shoe deal?
And more importantly, why is he fleecing the Spurs for $19M this season?
And MOST importantly, why will he try to fleece the Spurs for a $219M supermax contract if he knows he has a chronic condition causing degeneration of muscles and tendons?
If what you're saying is true, him signing a supermax deal would be fraudulent and criminal. Instead of a supermax, he needs to sign a league-minimum contract until he proves he's long-term healthy, or he should retire due to his chronic, degenerative condition.

I heard SAGirl is super sexy and would only be dumped by a gay guy, so it must be the Anderson revelation.

CC again pushing the LA narrative. Nobody ever says why KL would want out other than 1) Spurs "Mishandled" the injury or 2) Bigger endorsement deals elsewhere
