He'll get it, and he should.
come on got take less like Tammy and the crew....LOL Spurs ing over fiends.
Sources: No progress in extension talks between Kawhi Leonard, Spurs
As Kawhi Leonard holds firm on his desire for a maximum contract, extension talks with the San Antonio Spurs have failed to gather traction despite a looming Friday deadline, league sources told Yahoo Sports.
Leonard, the 2014 NBA Finals Most Valuable Player, would become a restricted free agent in July without an extension agreement by midnight Oct. 31 – the deadline for eligible extensions for the NBA's draft class of 2011.
Spurs president and general manager R.C. Buford and agent Brian Elfus have had several discussions in recent weeks, but no progress has been made, league sources told Yahoo Sports.
Leonard, 23, is considered one of the NBA's rising young stars, and multiple league executives told Yahoo Sports he'll command a max offer sheet on the market next summer. The Spurs would assuredly match a sheet and retain Leonard, but there remains the risk of Leonard signing a similar offer sheet to Dallas Mavericks forward Chandler Parsons.

He ain't no max player....he's actually ing over all....he's worth no more than 8 a year...
Finals MVP. He will get it.
he better not take a pay cut, not when parsons and hayward are cashin in
It would be terrible if LA ended up with Kevin Love, Lebron and Kawhi. Damn.
he's arguably not worth the min
time for some hardball, Spurs got to give the ball to Kawhi a lot this regular season, give him all the iso's he could ever want, let him fail, let him realize he's the product of a system...
Makes almost no sense for Spurs to extend him when his cap hold will be a fifth of his eventual salary and allow the team to go after FAs next summer. Of course, the OP has no concept of how the salary cap works and probably only has one thought in his mind when reading "a fifth"
he just won the won the finals mvp. Has alot of upside and with tim and manu leaving soon, he's gonna get it. Regardless. Add in the fact there are teams out there willing to give him the max, the spurs aren't dumb. They're gonna give it to him.
time for spurs doctors to give him the good ole patty mills dislocated shoulder diagnosis
remove kawhi from the equation and the spurs return to that ty enrique team b4 kawhi came to the spurs, good rs team but choke artists in the playoffs
you pay the guy his due, without him spurs wouldnt have sniff the ass crack of a wcf/finals/championship appearance
if that choke artists ballhog fake ass leader of a dog coatriding got can get 13m a year, i see why kawhi cant get more than that, yet clowns upstairs thinks his only worth 8-12m?
the way i see it, t he spurs can just sit and wait and match what other teams max offer, which is probably higher then the current cba with the kick in % increase due to new cba, pay the guy now or suffer the consequence of overpaying him with new cba
look at this years FA on t he team where the spurs played hardball to decrease their value so they can fit either green/kawhi into the equation when their contract is up t o bring back the team, so with all hardball u still cant fit kawhi and u want him to take a paycut? fck that ....go sniff a camels ass if ur interested in returning to the enrique era of bull pretender basketball...
Still have till Friday to sign........
Hows Kawhi's knees feeling these days?![]()
give him a bull diagnosis and drop the asking price![]()
should there be a reason why kawhi has to earn less then the ballhog on the team?
Really? All I heard all off season was "Greatest Playoff team ever. Would challenge the 1996 Bulls" and yet you're telling me losing a guy averaging 12 PPG would bring it all crashing down?
If I'm SA, I roll the dice and expect a guy yearning for a ring to sign with Pop & Parker to replace Duncan/Manu. Once the hometown discount boys leave, you can't overpay for role players
So.... you agree with the Spurs then? Meaning you have no point to this thread, you're just spewing . K.
losing a guy who played top notch defense who defended the top wing players in the league the tosb turnoboli/enrique couldnt defend who had to be bailed out cause their man was taking a regular dump on them
Dumb post is dumb ...
Not worth max but minimum talk is foolish
KL not worth Max bit when Hayward gets around 15 I don't blame Kiwi. I'll say this glad to see teams like Warriors and Spurs taking a stand but problem is Klay and Kiwi better than dudes getting near max.

Non-issue. He won't make a difference once Tim retires.
Considering his output in past two seasons it makes sense.
Spurs were off the charts efficient, not loaded. So yes, you change the team you lose efficiency. Is that rocket science or are you that stupid? They don't have a single top 10 player.
