    Wonder why we're not hearing more about Butler for Kawhi rumblings. I know both teams are in the same boat basically, but I would've thought the media would've ran with this.

    Chandler makes sense for the 76ers. They needed another combo forward, specifically to fill the backup PF hole vacated by Ilyasova . . . he could also make sense as insurance in a Leonard trade, if both Covington and Saric are moved in it.

    I doubt that'll happen though. Spurs need to hold out for Fultz and they probably wouldn't trade all 3.

    Saric is probably the one the Spurs like the most, but he's the one they should be willing to concede on (in place of the '21 Heat 1st), if push comes to shove. Covington would fill more of a need.

    Not that PF is well setup going forward, but they could get by with a combination of Gay, Anderson and Bertans for the next 2-3 seasons. They could also shop Murray to the Nuggets for Hernangomez, a lesser version of Saric. Incidentally, despite his brother being a C, Murray to the Hornets for their Hernangomez could also make sense.

    carter going on and on, sounding like hes spoken to kawaii recently. "im gonna tell you what kawaii thinks ..."
    Yeah, Carter sounds like he is super close to Kawhi. Literally said "this is what he told me".

    -The shoe deal/endorsements thing, I can understand. The Spurs have no business telling Kawhi who he can and can't be endorsed by.

    -The wanting more freedom of choice thing, that doesn't make sense to me. If it was coming from someone else with a dominating personality (LeBron, CP3, Kirby) I could see it but it's odd to have a guy with Kawhi's personality requesting that. Not to mention, why are you questioning the GOAT coach's methodology?

    -Seems to me like in Kawhi's mind his personality and the fact he's a bonafide superstar are at odds. He speaks about wanting freedom of choice, about wanting bigger endorsements, he thinks players will flock to play with him...that's all true for the prototypical superstar with a dominating personality but not for a dude that hardly talks or shows emotion.

    Because he's letting outside guys just do.
    He can't handle it so the other guys just... Do.

    They are manipulating the image of him, while he's playing with his kid and chilling at home and then hitting a gym to train.

    Carter is full of . Tbh. I don't buy a thing he's saying. This is all Uncle Dennis talking to Chris.

    We've been thinking about this all wrong. It's not some master plan by Leonard's skeezy uncle, not tampering by the Lakers, autism, etc...

    Usually when you see a man making a questionable decision there's usually a woman involved. Just saying...

    This....actually makes the most sense. . Although if that's the case then Kawhi should've just played out his contract and left in free agency.

    I sat through all of this crap but here's a summary of it:

    1. Cris states that Kawhi believes wherever he goes that he has strong recruiting power and could recruit guys to play with him.

    2. Cris claims the Spurs control all the endorsements a player does. That they make the final decision on what products a spurs player can endorse and Kawhi doesn't like that.

    3. Cris also claims Kawhi is not robotic person and that he's a free thinker.

    4. Cris claims Kawhi believes he's better than Lebron,Durant,Curry.

    5. Cris now claims what Tony Parker said wasn't the final straw and that it is other things that lead to Kawhi wanted to leave. I really laughed hard at this point I guess Kawhi's people realize what a Kawhi looks like for being butt hurt by what Parker said.

    6. Cris claims that Kawhi just wants to be in LA and doesn't care if it's a Laker or Clipper jersey.

    7. Nick states that Kawhi will make it impossible for other teams to trade for him outside of LA because he will refuse to take physicals.

    Emphasis on playing in LA not just Lakers ('honey i don't want to live here, let's move to LA')
    Emphasis on family treatment ('honey they don't treat you good, i've never felt like they like me, the mascot is a dog, Kawhi')

    Where is this coming from? When did the Spurs interfere with his endorsement deal(s)?

    If he is 100% healthy as they have state and is committed to the Spurs organization, I see the Spurs reluctanly offering the max.

    I think Pop and R.C are tired of his BS and have almost given up on the relationship.
    These are incongruous states of being.

    That sounds like BS. The spurs controlling his endorsements and telling him what products he can endorse??????

    Obviously.


    2. Cris claims the Spurs control all the endorsements a player does. That they make the final decision on what products a spurs player can endorse and Kawhi doesn't like that.
    Doubtful, though explains HEB.


    3. Cris also claims Kawhi is not robotic person and that he's a free thinker.
    I await his next treatise.

    4. Cris claims Kawhi believes he's better than Lebron,Durant,Curry.
    No surprise, all players do, few express it however.

    5. Cris now claims what Tony Parker said wasn't the final straw and that it is other things that lead to Kawhi wanted to leave. I really laughed hard at this point I guess Kawhi's people realize what a Kawhi looks like for being butt hurt by what Parker said.
    Yep. He got called out for not playing yet suddenly less than a month later he's '100% healthy' after being out forever.

    6. Cris claims that Kawhi just wants to be in LA and doesn't care if it's a Laker or Clipper jersey.
    That sounds honest tbh, tbh.

    7. Nick states that Kawhi will make it impossible for other teams to trade for him outside of LA because he will refuse to take physicals.
    Again with the threat of failing to report. He does want to be paid at some point, no?

    Agreed to me it didn't make any sense. To me it just wreaked more bs from uncle Dennis.
