SAS: Kawhi Willing to Sit Out Next Season if He’s Not Traded

[baseline bum]

I know. That's the point.

Sit out the season and you lose 2 years + 1 = 3 years of his prime...

It would only be two years. He'd be fine to return for 2019-20 if he sat out 2018-19. Jason Williams did that to get out of a contract he signed with the Clippers.

Play hardball PATFO. The child is flexing and you need to show him who daddy is

Nobody is flexing you dip .

Stick to "3rd in the Wethhh ethhh" takes

[SAGirl]

Robert Williams already in risk of fines then?

[objective]

Public appearances and those dumb 10 public service events still need to be enforced.

Instead of visiting elementary kids which is the usual easy way these guys do it, put him on the highway collecting garbage in some San Antonio beautification project. Or he can pick all the condoms out of the sludge when they drain the river.

Nephew better show up or get fined.

SAS has no real sources.

I saw it live. You lot are a bunch of idiots. He said that's what NBA executives believe, NOT Kawhi or his camp.

Delete this nephew.

No, precisely not.
If he'd sit out this year, he could only return in 2020-2021.

Imagine figuring out what Uncle Dennis was up to - around January or February - & try to blame Pop, Manu or TP for venting their frustration. What most of us are feeling now was being felt months ago by PATFO & maybe some of his teammates. This is some bull .

You mean when i posted this in dec...? Yep imagine that. You had to be a total moron to believe kl was injured this year after sa cleared him. Pop is the most conservative coach in history and could care less about reg season wins. Amazing how blind fans become.

It's one year, not two

That's what got me too.

As soon as you saw Pop and Manu stick their nose in the media, you knew there were something really wrong.

You can't play for one year after sitting out = two years lost.

What would be the point and the penalty, otherwise ? Players would just sit one year and sign wherever they want.

[PublicOption]

....and isnt he 100% healthy....this guy is a ing waste of space... this asshat

[Harry Callahan]

Kawhit has said not a word in months. I take all this speculation with a grain of salt. If he choses to sit out until traded, see ya in 2019-2020 with a year still on the contract. IOW, total BS.

I would let "the group" know these four words - "see you in September"

[Dverde]

His group will find some doctor to say he is injured. His “brand” will be in a nose dive.

Believe what you want.

Spurs need to sue Kawhi for breach of contract for faking an injury and not playing last year. Recoup that money.

If he does refuse to play 18/19, then that casts a totally different light on the his 17/18, adding to the case that he's been fakin the injury.

[acoelho1]

He’s not going to sit. I don’t why people listen to SAS. Unless the 76ers step up, keep him on the team 1 more year and try to make it work. If he walks, he walks.

Exactly what I’ve been saying. Spurs could go DEFCON 1 and sue the out of him for fraud. It would be a really bad look and possibly scare off FAs from coming in the future. But it’s the principled thing to do.

[JPB]

Believe what you want.

You know what ? I think you're right...

But I'm french so no comprendo inglesa muy bien, ah si ?

[wildbill2u]

Now that LeBron has definitely committed to LA, we have the biggest three way poker game ever with SA, LA, and Kwahi at the table. Expect to see some bluffing from everyone before a trade comes down, maybe including a third team.

[SupremeGuy]

Man, how did we get here? porker, tbh.

I have a great investment opportunity for you.

What an asshole.
