Couldn't even get a Disabled Player Exception.
damn, I feel like a Knicks fan now wanting to tank.
1. The Logo trades Austin Rivers for Kawhi.
2. The Logo signs LeBron.
3. Clippers back in the hunt.
What makes you think he didnt ask for trade? Maybe he did and the spurs refused.
Why? sa still wants to be good and is still a playoff team without Kawhi. If you are going to trade Kawhi, get assets, and build around this already good playoff caliber team.
PATFO Fluffers
There is a sizable chance Kiwi has played his last game ever in a Spur uniform, tbh
what kind of assets are we going to get for kawhi at this point, though?
i'd be wondering if he isn't sitting out just to keep from getting exposed.
This would've been the year to tank too. 6-7 legit future All-Stars in this draft. ty.
Man it’s hard to say, but it would have been a more informed choice. I have my regrets about this year and don’t want to see a repeat. Hopefully all this speculation, for good reason, will be addressed.
Manu's last year too on another note
Because the Spurs aren't the kind of team to let a star player walk without getting anything back for him. But maybe he did. What do your sources say?
The question now becomes...what comes of Kawhi's extension/contract?
Should the Spurs sign a max extension to a guy who mysteriously could only manage to play 9 games at 50%? Probably not.
Would Kawhi hold it against them if they try to lowball him for that reason? Probably.
Would other teams be scared off by the injury to dampen the market on Kawhi? Who knows, there are a lot of dumbass GMS out there.
I still think it is injury-related, but If he is sitting because he wants out or he's been led to act that way, then he is just a pathetic coward whom we absolutely got wrong.
Sadly, and I think Chinook was the first to point it out, people thought they were getting Duncan 2.0 for franchise player when it comes to character and off-court intangibles; instead they are about to find out he is Derrick Rose with all the brooding anxieties and anti-leader manners.
You can still get a decent haul given his age. Boston would gladly gamble with Taytum and a pick. Cleveland would hand over the brooklyn pick if it lands top 3 plus Osman in a second to add Kiwi to their team.
That deal has to be made before the start of next season because if this flares up your haul turns into absolutely nothing.
The spurs have one opportunity in the upcoming draft. If they cant take advantage of it and trade kawhi then PATFO might as well all quit.
The League betta get ready to grab they ankles and bite their bottom lip!
I dont see any benefit to him sitting out if he’s healthy IMO. But it’s really odd to have a non-surgical injury and a team seemingly perplexed about it still with no updates.
Either the injury is really, really bad or there is other stuff going on.
Even if you can’t get assets for Kawhi dumping LmA makes no sense for a team that is still playoff quality.
I'm actually rooting for more injuries and a close to lottery draft pick seeing as the Spurs are 3 games out of the playoffs. Get my Amuseddaysleeper to start the game threads now.
Damn. Watching that vid, pop's body language, his tone of voice - i really think something is up beyond the injury.
notice he says "he's still not ready to go" instead of not healthy.
"we've only got a few games left in the season and he's still not ready to go...".
"we've gotta move on. the team has to realize that this is who we are, this who we have, this is who's gonna play."
unless he's never going to be the same again and doesn't want anyone to know it
