    Saw this coming before the season even started tbh. Lost season for the Spurs, and could be the end of Kawhi's time in SA since I don't see them giving him the supermax.
    Well, now that he's proven to be injury-prone, he's practically destined to be a Clipper.

    Who can the Spurs get for him other than a bunch of second rate players. Your never going to get equal value for a player like Kawhi when he's healthy.
    Draft picks and maybe a star. Could see Sacramento biting, giving the Spurs their pick this season (Top 3) and WCS.

    What data do you have to support this claim that a top 5 player can only fetch “second rate players” and what do you consider to be such?

    We got to have the worst medical staff in the league.... Gordon Hayward snapped his ing leg backwards in a game and he'll be back and healthy before Kawhi.
    It wasn't a good sign when Tony came back from his injury before Kawhi. 35 years old and a ton of mileage, snapped his hamstring right off the bone, had to get it stapled or nailed back down. He's playing sooner than Kawhi and has no minutes restrictions right now other than what age and prudence require.

    Kawhi is just injury prone and doesn't recover well.

    I would be down with getting a top 3 pick for him but even that would be difficult since Kawhi only has 1 year left on his contract. Very few teams would be stupid enough to trade valuable assets for him knowing that he has only 1 year left on his contract unless he was willing to agree to sign an extension.

    It'd be dumb to try to bring him back at this point tbh. It's been 6+ months and the injury hasn't gotten better; he needs to go for a second opinion somewhere and get a better rehab plan. There's also the fact the team has no chance at a ring this season with or without him (or next year for that matter).

    R.C specifically said he has made significant process, so to say it hasn't gotten better isn't accurate. Being out indefinitely could mean a month to rehab more, no one really knows

    Sacramento would be able to give him the supermax and prolly wouldn't blink at the idea of it.

    Again name me some players that are equal value that the Spurs could get for Kawhi? You never going to get equal value for a superstar like Kawhi. I define second rate players as guys who are not all-stars.

    They also said he'd be back sooner rather than later in the beginning of training camp and he proceeded to miss the next three months. Worst thing you could do is take their words at face value.

    For those that are getting mad at some comparing to Grant Hill, would you rather have it to Tiago Splitter instead?

    The quote of "sooner rather than later" was in November, not training camp. he then returned a few weeks later. Did i miss something or do people keep exaggerating with the sooner than later comment and thinking it's from before the season?

    Original quote from 11/14- Asked if there is “light at the end of the tunnel” for the Spurs’ linchpin player, Popovich said after shootaround Tuesday morning, “Oh, sure. He’s gonna be back sooner rather than later.”

    On December 4th- from Kawhi- Kawhi Leonard is feeling healthy and will return "soon" from a quadriceps injury that has kept him out all season, but the Spurs All-Star forward does not have a target date for his debut."I feel good, soon to come (and) be able to play on the floor," Leonard said of his return. "It's been a long wait, but I'm feeling pretty healthy right now."

    Kawhi returned on December 12th.

    Meh...nothing burger, tbh. He'll be fine, will comeback in late March, get into shape and we're this year's 1st round opponent "no one wants to play" and everyone will be making their typical posts to cover their hedges.

    I have to admit that is funny. For me I'm ok since it drove me nuts all year of how Kawhi was in and out of the lineup. I'm hoping now that the Spurs are not trying to win the le this year that Pop will stop with the rest and play guys heavy minutes.

    Could be but not once did we see Kawhi limp or anything, except for that one when he was climbing the stairs to board the plane. He runs, he blocks, he steals, he scores. No proof.

    Literally the entire mantra from the beginning of camp until he eventually came back was that his injury was short-term. The fact he's still dealing with it and that PATFO have been vague with the details (even with how secretive they generally are) is shady enough. If you wanna keep trusting in their words, by all means. At this point I'm operating under the assumption he won't be back this year (nor should he).
