Yeah He's not known to put out anything he isn't pretty confident about what he's reporting
Woj is not someone who will just put out stuff that isn't at least somewhat true.

But his sources have been wrong in the past. All I am saying is you have two named sources vs. Woj's unnamed source. Would can we do other than see how it plays out? I am definitely not going to freak out and act like the sky is falling unless he doesn't sign an extension.
It's true - no one knows what exactly is in Kawhi's head but Kawhi himself. It is a bit alarming to hear Woj break the news of tension between Kawhi and the Spurs. It isn't something to just sweep under the rug.
Timmy came out of college as an all nba player. Kawhi didn't, it took him some time to develop into that. That's a an important thing to consider, imo.
It was tough to deny because it was playing out on court. The Spurs and LMA denied their relationship rift when first reported too. Do you really expect either side to substantiate those rumors as true? Even though the PATFO has taken a hit this off season, I think it's fair to say their still well respected and it look bad for Kawhi if he tried to take on the "best run organization in professional sports".

LaMarcus' denial was really weak and only came after he was asked with a mic in his face.
Don't worry fellas, things will work themselves out..
Glad to hear from his uncle and RC that s basically fake news. Wojo’s reputation is gon got tarnished a bit now.
He is not going anywhere, chillax.

Nah - not at all. If anything SA’s rep is being tarnished. They denied the LMA rumors and then got that proven to be true. They are not to be believed (like every other franchise too).
However, just because there is a rift does not mean it cannot be reconciled.
100% accurate, Deeps ...
Fact? Link please.
Ramona S burn on ESPN said this (the strained relationship between Kawhi and the Spurs) has been the worst-kept secret in the NBA this season.

Of course he'll deny this for 2 reasons. Can't have his ego take a hit & cant let Kawhi's trade value drop
As for Kawhi's uncle.... LMAO. His own sister got his return to the court wrong, how is his uncle going to know what the is going on from over there one Cali
Sam Amick (starts around 2 mins) discussing this. Basic recap
- said Kawhi & his group were OK with Spurs approach re: media responsibility and what not from the beginning, sharing information, etc... but they have not always been on the same page in that respect.
- Says he has no reason to believe Kawhi is available to be moved based on his intel.
- Also said it was rare for RC to come out and refute the report, so that should be highlighted.
- He says he had a bit of a relationship with Kawhi (as much as any media guy can) during his San Diego State days on his way into the league. Thinks due to his personality, there could be some communication breakdowns + the frustration of the injury/rehab process

The optics of this story are bad for all involved. The timing is also awful since it's in the middle of a season in progress. Both Kawhi's camp and the Spurs would have been incompetent not to deny it publicly ASAP regardless of whether or not it's true.
Problem with the Spurs at this point is Pop has a system and also likes to control it to his liking. Yes I could see how it could be annoying to Kawhi especially if he feels like he is ok to play and the system affects roster moves and such. I don't know why Spurs didn't try and trade for Cousins last season.
Everyone is purely speculating on Kawhi being unhappy with roster moves..that’s ST poster twisting things to fit their agenda..
So why is there disconnect or frustration? Miss diagnosed? That’s been speculated but isn’t a fact...Injury management? So many details on this don’t add up...Kawhi wants to play more but also tells PATFO he isn’t comfortable playing through it? Doesn’t make sense..until more details I’m not gonna assume worst case scenario..
I don't consider any player having discussions with another team as a FA, and then deciding to stay drama.. And no this is not drama either yet.. Sounds like the media making most of this up. If Kawhi is the one telling them he can't go which the story notes, this is a total non issue. Everyone is frustrated with how the year has gone. We were playing fairly well without him, most of the season, but now not having your best player is really starting to show in the loss column.. Of course Pop and everyone wants him out there playing. They have handled him with kid gloves, consulted experts, the works. Spurs are always first class in all areas. So if he is MAD about something, it should just be that his body is not coming around. But the Spurs are doing all they can. Not their fault.
I don't think this has anything to do with that. Kawhi basically was the system last year, which is why LaMarcus was unhappy.
Yeah but unlike Kiwi, LMA can play decent Ball and wipe his own ass.
Chilly Kiwi is like those Resident Evil corpses lyin´on the floor, not in position to play anywhere, maybe 2k...
Good find had completely forgotten about that
