They misdiagnosed his injury last year thus mishandled it until Kawhi sought out second opinions from his own medical team.
That could happen too tbh.
They misdiagnosed his injury last year thus mishandled it until Kawhi sought out second opinions from his own medical team.
They misdiagnosed his quad injury from last season. They determined it was a just a sprain and nothing serious. Kawhi had to get a 2nd opinion to find out it was tendinopathy during the off-season.
Alot of rumors going around that Kawhi went to his own doctors to get a second opinion. And was worse rhan originally thought. IDK we will see. but it is strange. Pop said this is nothing like they had seen before.
But during the season THIS YEAR Kawhi said the injury was not from last year. So Kawhi lied on camera then? Also, where did you hear about the misdiagnosed sprain? Is there a link?
It's partly his fault the roster looks the way it does. If he wants change, he's going to have to step out from the shadows and voice his concerns and opinions to the powers that be.
Did you already miss/forget about the Woj article yesterday? It made no mention of the roster or team direction. Also that "pussy" played the entire post-season and parts of the regular season with that injury.
Exactly, rumors. They may or may not be true but so many people are talking like rumors are 100 percent true but anything coming from the Spurs or Kawhi's camp is not true. It's funny what people choose to believe.
It's all just rumor mill . No one here really knows the validity of anything
The media is causing all of this to snowball. They want it to, not often they can take digs at the Spurs' organization. Many have been waiting to kick them while they're down - and this is as good as any opportunity.
At the end of the day, it's much ado about nothing. Kawhi and Pop may not be as close as Timmy and Pop, but Kawhi still sees him as a father figure. That isn't a bond that is easily broken.
Is the injury frustrating? Sure. But both sides are frustrated by it - it isn't a unilateral frustration. Kawhi will be back after the All-Star break.
What was that one Jeff McDonald tweet about the Spurs not being contenders anymore after free agency and how good the Warriors were?
"It's OK to let someone else have a turn"
LOL
Exactly! As of right now, I trust Kawhi over anyone else. In his time in San Antonio since being drafted, he has done nothing to make me question his honesty. If he said the injury was not from last year, I believe him.
Can't wait for tonight's blowout loss to the Cavs when Pop tries to say with a straight face "Kawhi has no problems with this roster"
probably turning in most of my spurs card for a spurs team sans timmy, manu, kawhi tbh.
i’m not putting up with a tony/patty/forbes/anderson/gasol lineup in the future pop needs to get over himself, this is a business not a family. patriots are going to their millionth super bowl and not because they stayed loyal to wes welker, vince wilfork.
Did you already miss/forget that the guy who is now claiming Kawhi wants out directly referenced the Woj article yesterday and said there was nothing to worry about?
And I doubt that pussy played through anything last year since he can't even play back to back games. He said it HIMSELF that it was not an injury from last year
So your saying no luck? We will still have to put up with all the alts, like this one
I also want to add this, if there is truth to the rumors, don't you think the Spurs are working overtime to make Kawhi happy here on out? Fans online are freaking out over rumors, if there is truth to them, you can bet the Spurs are going to work hard on whatever it is they need to do. They aren't just going to sit by and let one of the best players in the world slip through their fingers.
I've seen enough of these situations before. Somebody is leaking and is coming from Kawhi's camp.
So Kawhi lied about his injury?
PATFO mouthpiece ragging per par
It's just a few more years of waiting it out, Kawhi. Which is nothing in comparison to the age of the Local Galactic Group and its many breathtaking exo-planets
Since the summer I have had the thought Danny isn't guaranteed to come back... just based on all these guards added and the Spurs doubling down on Mills, Mills playing over Danny in some situations next to Tony or another PG, Pop going with super small sized lineups at times with defensive liabilities, and even last playoffs in favor of additional offense. At times last season Danny was benched in favor of Patty/Tony lineups... and this season Murray and Kyle have both been preferred recently to close games next to Forbes or Davis or someone else.
It's speculation because Danny has been injured as well, but it's just a feeling based on how many guards have recently been added, the fact some are in the team mostly on account of their defensive potential and Danny having already been included in trade talks this past summer. If he comes back on a discount he will be back, if not he's possibly gone unless he picks up that option. It's a hot take coming from me, and I could be 100% wrong... but I think this team is changing. Specially with Murray's defensive potential and ability to guard quick guards Danny's specialty is not as essential as it previously was... and the team have other guards with defensive talent...
Didn't say he lied. But why would he want to let every team out there know directly from himself that his injury is a lingering one?
So you are choosing to believe Jalen Rose's take? The same guy that said there wasn't an issue previously. Sure, ok.
Did you even watch the Spurs last postseason? Kawhi was icing his quad throughout the playoffs and there were reports that his quad was a bigger issue than his ankle.
Most likely so it doesn't appear that it's just a "pain tolerance" issue and he looks soft IMO(there were reports that it was just a pain tolerance issue prior to Kawhi's return)..it's evident Kawhi's camp leaked, that goes without saying..
