Thought Sheridan was a bunch of made up stuff ...
you could be a scout for the hornets.
Parker was the most prideful man ever to set his ego aside, over and over and over again, and willingly play third fiddle. Deep in his heart he knew fans loved Tim Duncan and Manu Ginobili just a little bit more than they loved him, but this did not leave him embittered, because deep in his heart he knew he made Duncan and Ginobili better than they ever could have been without him.”![]()
Kawhi to Toronto for Valanciunas + Anunoby + Siakham + 1st rounder if Pop can't work things out? Would you guys do this
From the Sheridan article:
I wondered about this and if the Spurs are not wanting to trade with certain teams because of it?and there are plenty of teams that would welcome Leonard as a rental before rerouting him to Los Angeles next February at the trade deadline.
In that situation the Spurs are better off trading him to the Sixers for scraps. No way the Sixers would trade Kawhi to LA during the trade deadline.
if spurs opt to not trade him and he sits out... spurs lose more leverage.
Illogical
Not one writer thinks the Spurs and Kawhi can make amends
make amends? Maybe this shouldn't have been playing Anne Frank for most of the season. Spurs ain't making amends with that .
no.
if kawhi sits out... other teams will know the spurs have no other cards to play.
kawhi sitting out actually helps him. other teams would have to give up less to get him.
Kawhitter is not going to LAC this year, they have nothing to offer
Drama gets more clicks, they feel most nba fans wouldn’t click on a feel good story of possibility that Kawhi and the Spurs getting a deal done.
The best part of Kawhi sitting out would be his inability to enter free agency next offseason. That would be like wasting three years of his prime over stubborness.
Per the NBA Collective Bargaining Agreement, if a player withholds services in the final year of his contract, after 30 days he forfeits the right to become a free agent at the end of the contract. His old team retains his rights.
The Spurs theoretically could just keep Kawhi out of the NBA forever.
So, no, sitting out does not help him.
^ bingo.
Still think he gets moved before Training Camp though. I think PATFO are over his and want he and his dip uncle far away from this franchise. But they aren’t going to just give him away. Philly or somebody needs to ante up and give us something of value so we can get this over with tbh.
Until the group plays the slavery card, which should be coming soon..not sure Pop will be able to withstand that, mentally..
That's the thing tho, Pop & RC don't want all that drama, sitting doesnt hurt the Spurs any less than it does Kawhi.
If Kawhi does sit out and the Spurs don't trade him, do the Spurs get granted some type of exception?
Current events contradict your assessment of Pop’s and RC’s mindset.
