You are free to belive what you want bkynfan... His playoffs record of late speak for themselves. As they say, the truth is in the pudding.
On the flip side, we know that NOT to be true because in the only interview that Kawhi gave in early March, he himself said he was very close and already doing 4v4.
So if there was a setback, it happened under Kawhi’s doctors watch and had nothing to do with SA. His doctors found nothing different, didn’t recommend surgery and even tough he was close to playing nearly 2 months ago, he never got cleared under his doctors watch.
I think Pop's done pretty well in the playoffs recently. You make it sound like he's been getting knocked out in the first round on the regular or something, but he's only failed to make it to the semis once in the Kawhi era until this year (presumably). He adjusted as well as he could last year, but the team just had too many injuries to even win one game against GS. Against Houston, he did a great coaching job.
He has been getting knocked down of challenging but winnable series often and life ain't about to get easier or more perfect for him than teams he's had in the very recent past tbh... Truth is in the pudding. Maybe he innovates and goes back to focusing on basketball, but at 70, distraught? With a Kiwi-gate at home? I doubt it.
La!Marcus almost left him last season too. There's a lot to question about Pop lately...
PATFO paid Gasol and Mills. They're giving Kawhi the supermax. We should just hope he makes a full recovery.
Exactly... People will believe what they want tho. The facts are there
You really need to learn your aphorisms. It's "The PROOF is in the pudding".
^ thanks for the correction... Not only do I post from a tablet at times but English is not my first language.
You have to look at the history. The Spurs have ZERO record of rushing players back or even letting them play injured. Pop probably cost SA the Utah series in 98 because he wouldn't let TD play one game on a minor ankle sprain. He also held him out of the 2000 playoffs after he had meniscus smoothing minor scope surgery weeks before. THE SPURS DON'T TREAT PLAYERS LIKE MEAT. Never have, never will. Some people's blind PATFO hate causes them to project, but it's not true.
Now what I CAN see is that with Kawhi's china doll history, and games missed over his career that the Spurs wanted safeguards built in to any offer. That's just smart business. His best season of durability was his rookie year, and he played 64/66 games in the lockout shortened season. Other than that, his reliability has been questionable. He has averaged 66.8 games per season since, and that's throwing out this year's 9 game season, which I consider to be a medical hold out. You can't break the bank for a player who only plays 81% of your games, especially not the SuperMax. That guy has to be a horse, and Kawhi isn't.
LOL. people blaming Pop for a playoff loss against the Warriors when it's obvious this team is hot garbage and probably shouldn't even be in the playoffs.
Porker has been everyone's for the past 4 years. Including when we rang.a franchise player top 3 of the league being Matt Barnes
oh and
What is?
Porker stole 45 mils.

Atleast MVPatty earns his ing money.
Calling out the Franchise and then playing like .

but but Kawhi will come back before season ends
Porker actually hurting the team while playing.
MVPatty is a ing starter while fat plays 6 minutes in the playoffs.
Healing and playing like is worse than not playing at all.
If these guys make 15 threes for pop it definitely doesn’t end in four.
funny you said thatPorker actually hurting the team while playing.

Notice how his sister tried to debunk the "is he or isn't he injured?" question, but says nothing about whether he's still committed to the Spurs.
The day before the regular season begins. Like I said, they could slow play this if they're on the same page, but don't want to come off as kowtowing to him. In reality, the entire franchise is in limbo, so they should look to resolve this as soon as possible.
She put #Spurs
That’s a ing commitment
I think Pop is looking at this "NO TRADE" to WC teams let alone the lakers a little narrow. Kawhii is a free agent after next season anyways. If he is dictating where he wants to go why don't you send him where he wants to go. There is still a 50/50 chance that kawhii might pull a Dwight and leave the Lakers after one season. if you think about it You guys can end up with Julius Randle in a sign and trade and possibly Brandon Ingram on the wing with a Cleveland #1 draft pick. Randle and Ingram under Pop will thrive with LMA and the spurs will still make the playoffs next season....
Kawhi doesn't want to leave... Stop making stuff up for God sakes
