    Nope. I guess we don’t hear from it until Team USA and Pops actually talks to him man-to-man. Until then they’re just rumors.
    Hate to say it, but this is probably the case. Pop gonna see if Kawhi actually shows his face and try to get him alone.

    Uncle Dennis will probably try to sneak in wearing a trench coat and Groucho Marx glasses so that he can hide Kawhi in a broom closet again.

    I 100% believe this was all started from panic that he wouldn't be offered the supermax, or the Spurs would offer lower. His camp tried to hold him out, played games, and completely blew this thing to ing smithereens. Now he'll make far less money for one team or another he didn't actually want to play for. A total up.
    Not sure if they really tried to play games to get the supermax because they knew they wouldn't get it since last season and more...It wasn't new.

    But they definitely tried to play hardball with PATFO in the trade talks...when it didn't work, they panicked and talks broke down roughly

    Kawhi's camp had that info since 2017 season. There were rumors about the Spurs would have trouble to offer a supermax deal because of Pop's retirement in the first year of that contract, the small market thing, Spurs' financial future...Just add Kawhi's healthy concerns and his camp knew they would never get that offer.

    Without the supermax his camp doesn't have other option to ask for a trade but could have handled this in a better way.

    If his representatives would have been cordial with PATFO, if they would have had a nice approach, I guess Pop would have sent Kawhi to LA in offseason's first week. Now, LA is impossible until next season.
    Don't believe the spurs have a problem offering the supermax financially. Its devoting so much money to someone who has been a flake. Imagine him pulling this crap when eating half of the salary cap.

    He might been offered the supermax if he hadn't played this last year out like he did. His camp is ruining his career. His family is ruining his career.

    Not sure that really changes much at this point. Would Pop really want a guy who only met with him face-to-face when he was forced to by those cir stances?

    DeMar DeRozan is supposed to be at the Team USA camp too. Maybe Pop wants to work him out and check under the hood more before trading for him.

    Cris Carter talking and circles and making himself look really dumb...

    Couldn’t even understand or answer Nick Wright’s question...Nick was pointing out “LA Teams” don’t have assets anymore to make a two team trade. 3rd team is needed due to contracts matching up..but there’s not many teams that can help.

    In which he brings up Raptors and says they’re the favorite because it’s the easiest trade to complete. He then asks Carter since it’s unlikely a trade with LA teams happens..

    Is Kawhi #1 priority getting out of SA? “Kawhi number one priority is getting to LA”

    From threre Wright stumbling over his words and totally being perplexed by Carter answer. Carter also says it’s not “really 70 million” that Kawhi is passing up because $40m is from that fifth year lol. Says money isn’t a factor and being in LA makes him happy..

    Obviously Carter doesn't understand what is going on other than what he is fed by Dennis, who obviously doesn't understand the salary cap rules and what is needed to make the trade happen.

    He's probably not getting traded to the Lakers until December at the soonest, so if he doesn't want to play in S.A., he'll have to settle on a trade elsewhere, which looks like it could be Toronto.

    And again, if money doesn't matter, then why not sign the deal with Nike?

    Yeah Carter kept looking up over and over again... I hope he realizes after all this time that his responses are perplexing and don't make sense, even Nick alluded to that.

    Like I said his objectivity on this matter is compromised.
    He was trying to say its not $70 million because of the extra year baked in to CBA ...
    But that doesnt mean spurs can not offer $70 million more which is a fact.
    You can spin it if you want but Spurs can offer a supermax even if KL gets a 2nd contract after an initial contract from Toronto, Philly, Clippers or Lakers he still losing money. maybe he gets some back off the court but he wil lose salary.

    Kawhi can’t stop being a rental. Such stupidity. Idiot co-host didn’t ask the obvious follow up question whether Kawhi will sit out or refuse to report.

    They’re full of ....they keep moving the goal post to fit the narrative..

    Carter and SJax both have said in recent shows in past that if Spurs didn’t offer super max he was GONE. Both alluded to hold out because the Max was on the line. Once they realized the max wasn’t just gonna be handed to them they demanded trade to LA. “Preferably Lakers” according to Woj

    Camp assumed Lakers would sell the farm but then got cold feet once they realized the King was coming. The group then changed the tune to “prefer clippers” once they saw Lakers left them for LeBrom..just shows they group is clueless on what’s going on and how they see Kawhi value

    Spurs and Group are attempting to back each into a corner. Spurs are obviously winning this battle....They’re not trading him to LA. Toronto deal is pretty much ready to be completed..but they’re giving the group a way out by giving them an option to talk it out in hopes of getting that SM back on the table..

    If not enjoy Canada and -80M

    Dennis Robertson has approached multiple players about wanting to become their manager, according to multiple NBA agents.Robertson is currently representing his nephew Kawhi Leonard.
    There is a growing su ion among several NBA agents that Robertson is attempting to build his own marketing company with Leonard as its signature client.
    Robertson is a former banking executive.

    Saw some posts saying he looks dumb so I had to give him the benefit of the doubt and yeah nope dumb-looking as . I thought Jabari was THE mouthpiece but this guy is something else. Really seems like a guy working out of his car slipped him $20 to keep repeating Kawhi wants to go to Los Angeles. He can’t even answer Wright’s questions with a tinge of substance, though I now understand why Pinoy Marauder keeps quoting this dude.

    I think he didn't want to put Carter in that spot. But yeah, journalism 101.

    Each passing day, this group--to include everyone from his sister, Cris Carter, and of course his uncle, his agent, his agency, and any and all of its investors--is making Kawhi look like a bigger and bigger impotent and immature child.

    There's just no common sense to any of this. And their strategy, whatever the that was, has blown up in their collective brown-nosing faces. Good riddance, when it comes.

    5/221M

    4/140M

    Just look at that for a little bit...

    Kawhi will get endorsement wherever he plays if he’s not damaged goods. He had the “Kawhi Tho” commercial and brand getting legs. If he re-established himself as MVP and IMO could again be the favorite if he stayed in SA..other $$ will come.

    $221M is the easiest quarter Billion he can make....there’s no making it back.

    Like if Kawhi didn't have a history of injuries, completely disregarding the possibility of having another throughout those four years.
