Let's see how the media treat their darling organization for destroying the rest of Durant's career..

2000 game 78, TD (All Star MVP year) teared meniscus. Pop shut him down and lost in first round.
2017 WCF, Pop didn´t play #2 knowing we would be completely destroyed.
100% PATFO culture. Never risk players or reagravate injuries.

Unless two legends you are super loyal to are retiring and u want to make them go out strong... Pop doesn't have the same loyalty to Kawhi that he has for the big 3...that was very obvious with his behavior... And he clearly regretted it after it went to

The Warriors are already in damage control mode. And Leonard's situation is very different. No comparison.

Same... Pressure to play that season to win a ring... Doctors said he couldn't get hurt worse, it's just pain Kawhi gave it a go and realized he wasn't fully healed and spurs shut him down, KD wasn't mentally strong enough to cut out the noise and look out for himself... As usual he let the words get to him

KD did the old school warrior thing, but shouldn't have. It is one thing to play through pain and joint wear, and the other to play with a injury that actually urges recovery.

This does not change Kawhi's case unless it was the same, a player who went through more than the recovery time, was cleared, but kept looking for more opinions and thought he shouldn't play.

Same... KD went past the recovery time for a calf strain... That's what the team reported it as... Just like the Spurs reported Kawhi's injury as a thigh bruise, misdiagnosed Green and Gasol too...

For a grade 1 calf strain probably, but his injury was worse and he got about 4 to 5 weeks. That's barely what he needed. Hard to see him getting cleared if it's not the finals down 1-3.
