It's like saying now that someone is going to Cleveland to play with lebron and wade... Except lebron is five years younger
Tim's health was a major concern in 2000, after his knee injury and Pop sitting him for the playoffs. He needed surgery...Spurs and Dr. David Schmidt the best orthopedic surgeon in San Antonio were unsure about his full recovery.
Against all odds, he played another 16 years after that surgery, winning multiple rings.
Kawhi's injury is a minor injury compare to Tim's in 2000.
But of course...Thinking about the worst possible outcomes is the easiest way.
I doubt this is about his next contract. If were April who knows but not now.
A guy "with a personality that does not have any other interest other than B-BALL" shoud be very frustrated if the medical staff of his team didn't manage his injury well
It's pretty obvious if a player got a 2nd option and tried to find his own doctors is because he didn't trust his team's doctors completely.
That's why RC felt the need to say "And it's been difficult for our staff. Historically we've been able to successfully manage injuries".
Otherwise, he wouldn't mention this.
Kawhi is our best athlete/basketball player but he is not a leader, an alpha. He can perform well in any offensive scheme. But he is best suited for executing plays directed by a strong PG such as Chris Paul, and the team was better when He got his points in the flow of the offense. Plus he is such a sphinx that it is difficult to see Kawhi having a big impact in the locker room.
Wow this is really interesting. Where did you read this?
Although I question this because he said it wasn't from last year in the same interview where he implies he got a second opinion. So it doesn't really add up.

Wow, you're delusional ... and contradictory. You assert he's an alpha but wants to leave due to mean comments on here ... As if he or his "camp" would give a what a bunch of anonymous trolls have to say.
Come on, man. He ain't Kevin Durant.
Damn don’t hit’em like that
Hill agreed to go to Orlando almost immediately, so Tim would have gone to Orlando to play with him, not McGrady.
You remember wrong. He was considered a sure fire hall of famer in his prime and that ankle was the first serious injury he ever dealt with. Dude was only 27 years old at the time. TMac was considered the great consolation prize if Orlando couldn't land Duncan.
I heard it on the same podcasts people posted here and some radios online
I watched the same interview on Tw. I guess that was Kawhi not throwing them under the buss...If he would have said the injury was from last season everyone on media would question Spurs medical staff at that moment.Although I question this because he said it wasn't from last year in the same interview where he implies he got a second opinion.

In 2015 about his hand..."One of the doctors said it's the first time he's ever seen an injury like this" In 2018 about his quad..."They've never seen an injury like this"
If they didn't know what it was they could misdeagnose it. Even Pop admitted the doctors had to change the treatment after the first weeks of Spurs training camp.
Kawhi could feel frustrated after getting the same "have never seen it" response from Spurs doctors.
But again, it's not an irreconcilable issue.

Kl could have prevented by just addressing media. Squash it. Move on.
Actually Kawhi played 64 out of 66 games during his rookie year. His rookie year was the lockout season. If I take out his rookie year then the percentage of games he has missed is even higher.
Ok, cool. I have read every (legit) article I could find but haven't listened to podcasts. Thanks for sharing.
I am with you on that. Obviously, there is something going on, otherwise there wouldn't be all these reports. I do not think it is all doom and gloom as a lot do here. I am not too worried about Kawhi and the Spurs for 2 reasons. First reason is, if there is some kind of discord or whatever, I have faith that Pop and the Spurs will do WHATEVER it takes to make things right. And the second reason I am not too worried is, in the end, money talks. The Spurs are the only team that can offer him the super max. He would have to really be at odds with the Spurs to not take a super max if offered to him. And likewise, the Spurs would really have to be worried about his health to not offer the super max. I am confident that Kawhi will still be a Spur past the 2021 season.I watched the same interview on Tw.

It was going to be both of them. Yes I did watch. Thanks for the obnoxious comment.
You made it sound like he wasn’t even on the team. You need to be clearer when you post dude.
Apparently the chilling is reaching teammates at this point.
Pop's rests LA last game and now they play like . I just don't see how resting helps. Pop has no clue about rhythm or continuity.
I think kl likes guys
did you name your dog after kawhi because pugs have health issues too?
kawhi used to tear it the up. rip bruh.
No idea if this guy is a quack or onto something. But hey John Goodman trying to save Kawhi's season is as good as more speculation. He gets to Kawhi a little after the two minute mark
That said, can't imagine it is anything this simple and the Spurs docs or Kawhi's private physicians didn't think of this.

Some chiropractor's are quacks. Seen them cause a lot of damage to patient's, sometimes fatal ...
So what is the latest with this?
Just the usual spurs fan melt down and making up more rumors .
in other words, another day in the ST alternate universe.
