There is nothing to be cautious about. Hes not injured or feeling pain. Kawhi said so himself. Old man is just freaking out.
Wouldnt surprise me too see him throw away games to prove a point though. I felt like Pop intentionally put the team in the last year to allow Leonard be the go to guy...
Pop had one of the worst if not the worst coaching stretch of his career when Leonard was injured last year for 15 games. It felt like it was on purpose sometimes.
Nah.. what do you expect... Tony was out in that stretch as well.. Patty was out, and when he came back he was terrible since if he's not shooting well he doesn't help much. Manu got burned out... Tiago was out. It wasn't just Kawhi... When you have to give up 30 minutes a game to Marco Belinelli what do you expect. During that stretch there were some games where Cojo was your best player. he played a lot of Daye/Ayers bc he had to... Baynes starting. Rookie Anderson... actually I would much have rather had more rookie Anderson and less Daye/Ayers, but he was a rook and didn't look like he does this year.. it was a wholewide disaster. During that stretch Manu burned out on us. There was nothing much he could do.
Good news. Pop just being Pop and resting Leonard like a 38 year old. He'll have over a week rest when he returns Wednesday.
Probably just a micro tear
San Antonio Spurs @spurs
INJURY REPORT: Kawhi (tightness, left calf) is questionable for Spurs-Suns. Matt (left calf strain) & Manu (surgical recovery) remain out.
Questionable? Against the ty suns, that probably means hes not playing.
Kawhi ready to go..probably need TO badger Pop into playing like Manu/TD..

Planned rest. Nothing to see here.
No need, it's the Son. Simmons/Kyle should have a field day like the SL.
He's ready but will sit because it's the Suns.
If he returns Wednesday then he'll basically have had 2 weeks off. Having only played against Orlando on 10th and all-star game on the 14th.
Any updates today? If hes not playing, Im thinking of getting a haircut and just watching the replay later
This guy is a great player, but he reminds me of Bogut with the way hes always hurt
I have him as a top 5 player in the NBA but hes so fragile, its hard to trust him
you should be more trusting, everyone called Curry glass ankles before last season and now look at them, on a historic run with barely any injuries to anyone but bench scrubs
How is trolling like this fun? I'd be one thing if you were subtle so people weren't sure if you were serious, but when it so obvious you're not pushing buttons; you are just annoying. I can't see how that's fun.
Popovich being Popovich.
I guess your usual hangouts are closed on Sunday morning and here you are in Spurs Land. Does GSW have a website after winning one after all those decades?
He's not even a GS fan. He's a Lakers fan and has even admitted it a bunch of times in other threads. He's claiming GS as his other team now that the Lakers are crap.
Wasn't worth it with two days of rest and against Suns..it if he doesn't feel ready on Wed, then just shut him down for the rest of the trip..A whopping 7 games ahead of OKC gives us the luxury to take it easy on our key players...
Thats too long. Rythem is just as important. Rest is almost stupid for a 24 year old. Hes going to play next game. If he fought for it, he would have played against the suns too.
Based on his recent history, Kawhi has no interest in playing against scrubs.
