    I think the team needed it, and its only fair to the guys on the floor to say it. He is absolutely right.

    I don't get how Kawhi went from medically cleared since January to not being medically cleared anymore

    Right thing to say. I'm sure he meant no slight to Kawhi.

    The Spurs have to start tightening down a game-plan for the playoffs. For right now, that doesn't seem to include Kawhi, unless there is some serious CIA going on (which I doubt).

    I don't think anybody out there would turn down having a healthy Kawhi on the floor...but it's not something they can count on at this point.

    The OP failed to say, and he then failed to explain his speculation.

    The whole Kawhi thing is an unnecessary distraction mostly Kawhi’s fault bc he doesn’t talk. I don’t know if his injury is better and they are monitoring his conditioning or if he’s still injured. Either way, like Manu said, he ain’t playing so who cares. He’s not coming back for ten games. Also, I trade him in the off-season. Can’t have a recluse that creates unnecessary distractions. Maximize his value with a bunch of stories of good health and great workouts and then trade him for as much as you can get.

    What did he say?
    SAN ANTONIO – Kawhi Leonard was back in uniform Wednesday – albeit just for the Spurs team photo.

    "Yeah, it was very brief," Manu Ginobili said. "But good to see him around."

    * * * * *

    Ginobili said when he has been sidelined with an injury in the past he made an effort to "try to stay involved, to talk to different guys, different groups and stay later after practice to see what is going on in the locker room. It doesn't come as natural as when you are playing and when you struggle and Pop shows a video and he yells at you. Even in those situations, you support each other. It's hard when he has barely been with us the whole season, maybe a month or less. So it's a tough situation."

    But Ginobili was quick to stress that Leonard's introverted personality doesn't make it easy for him to stay involved in that same manner.

    "For him, it's a little harder because he's not as outspoken," Ginobili said. 'He's just a hard worker, a focused individual on his game, his weaknesses and his strengths. I assume it's a little harder for him. But it's hard to tell when he has got his own introverted character."

    My impression of Manu's remarks -- Kawhi hasn't made much effort to stay in touch with the team or show solidarity.

    Truth nukes..

    Gloves are off..The tone in the latest comments of Parker and Ginoblili is telling.

    You have a 36 yo and 41 yo team legends putting their diminished bodies through it trying to make the playoffs and 26 yo who couldn't bother this would be the latter final hurrah and isn't even keeping them up to date with what's preventing his soft ass from being wiped properly before he gets back on court-- that is if he ever will..

    The hardest part of this is trying to tell if Kawhi is mentally checked out of the team or if him staying away so much is due to him being a rather extreme introvert.

    Even while introverted Tim would have spent much more energy keeping up with his teammates. Again, this is not meant as a slight against Kawhi as much as high praise for Tim.

    I know, it’s pathetic. I don’t want this lazy coward to ever suit up in a Spurs uniform again.

    When your two most experienced players get their Kawhi news from ESPN, it's so weird that they don't have a relationship with Kawhi...

    Maybe this team misses TD more than we thought...

    Calling Kawhi an introvert is just Manu's cover that allows him to deliver the real message -- Manu is too savvy and tactful to not give himself (and Kawhi) some cover amid his reporting.

    It’s kind of out of character for Manu to throw shade at a teammate. That’s what he’s doing. We “fell for it again”, “barely been with us”

    He sounds frustrated.

    I think there’s stuff going on behind the scenes the public/fans don’t know about. Something fishy. When a guy like Manu throws shade at you something’s up.

    I don't care about his comments. Only care about his play. He's cancerous and needs to be put out of his misery.

    Manu got bit by a bat and came back during a series of painful injections for rabies. He'll give up his body to take a foul for the team. He's not known as El Contusion for nothing.

    Manu, who's friends with Brent Barry, didn't even throw shade at TP for ing his wife...so this is very telling.
