KA starting in Kawhi's place per par.

[spursistan]

Just hand the Warriors the le if Kawhi calf is something of an issue going forward ..where/when did he actually pick the strain/stress?

So, Bonner was contagious?

[Ron Swanson]

Kawhi gets Wally Pipp'd by Fathead.

[loveforthegame]

No Leonard sucks. He was out there warming up so I assume it's not serious?

[TheGreatYacht]

Fathead? off.

Shouldve been dealt with by now.

Especially after a few days off after the All star game. Strange. Hope it's nothing serious.
Also I hope SloMo isn't guarding Red , he won't be able to keep up.

[SouthernFried]

Geesh...what a mess. lol

[jhfenton]

Welp, guess Leonard really is out. I'll prolly just go to sleep after all; no reason to stay up to watch a loss.

Same here. No reason to lose sleep without Kawhi. If the Spurs pull off the miracle, I can watch it on replay.

[spursmvp]

Didn't he have a week off to rest?

Kawhi out - calf tightness

[loveforthegame]

Sucks for these fans.

I guess he'll be out tomorrow night too.

Same here. No ing way we win sans Kawhi.

Gonna get destroyed by LAC tonight. A loss at LAL tomorrow too. Not a good way to start post ASB.

Well, the spurs lost this time last season to the Clipps too. I think they'll have a hard time tonight as well. Expect a lot of Hack a Jordan.

maybe he'll alternate out with a different set of players sitting out tomorrow

or maybe he actually has legitimate tightness

[spursistan]

it is like amazing how Kawhi picks up these injuries off court in non-contact situation.. i mean pops up out of left field..

We'll be hacking a Jordan with the lead and momentum per par.

[look_at_g_shred]

it LMA 30+ . I'll be ok with a loss if it means Kawhi's
injury isn't serious at all.

[HighLowLobForBig-50]

Go Spurs Go !
that was a long wait

[RD2191]

in sucks.

[KenziE]

Gonna get destroyed by LAC tonight. A loss at LAL tomorrow too. Not a good way to start post ASB.

Why Is it a lock to LAL aswell ? God damn in idiots even if TD Manu Tp and Kawhi wont play against LAL they can still beat them .... Bet money on it tbh

[apalisoc_9]

Pop treats kawhi like hes 38..sure.

But if kawhi's calf is tight, its best they rest him because a large part of injuries happen because of tightness. Its not a serious in a sense that he will miss a lot of games, he will miss one or two at most...

But its dangerous because it can lead to various other injuries thats leg related up to lower back if you put too much pressure on it.
