I believe players now control how they want things to go...thanks to Bron. Players are copycats and see what Kyrie did and will not say anything publicly but will privately.

I'd love to add Kawhi - if he's healthy. The quad injury is a concern, though. The fact that's its been an issue so long makes me nervous. With muscle injuries, there's an increased risk of heterotopic ossification (abnormal bone growth) that isn't treatable, so a deep dive into his medical records would be needed.

WOW MAN.

I was literally just taking an online quiz for a clinical skills class I take at my Uni, and this was one of the terms (it was a quiz on terminology and roots/prefixes/suffixes)  ;D

Anyone on board for a Kawhi Leonard for Brown, Smart and a few picks?

Kawhi said he wants out.

It wouldn't get much better than Kyrie, Hayward and Kawhi. Just saying.

Kawhi didn’t say he wanted out.  A couple reporters said he did.  BIG difference.

Wow, Kawhi has been cleared to play but is choosing NOT to play. He seriously wants out.

He may want to go home to the Lakers...but give it a shot Ainge. The Lakers have nothing to give up.

I don't keep up with all the rules. If he's cleared to play by the doctors and he doesn't , do the Spurs still have to pay him?

Morris, Rozier, Brown, Yabusele, 2019 Kings Pick + Another Future 1st.

That's probably what we can offer this summer if we wanted Kawhi, and maybe Spurs accept?

But frankly, I think this is more smokescreen. Don't see Kawhi acting this way (acting "selfish") and think Spurs keep him long term still.

Well if you heard it on some podcast then it must be true. Especially since he’s going to be a free agent. Oh wait, he’s under contract? Then he must have a no trade clause. No? Oh yeah that’s right. He can’t choose where he gets traded. This is real life, not MyCareer in NBA2k18.
CB Mock Deadline - Minnesota Timberwolves
Kemba Walker / Tyus Jones / Aaron Brooks
Jimmy Butler / Jamal Crawford / Treveon Graham
Rodney Hood / Nic Batum / Marcus Georges Hunt
Taj Gibson / Nemanja Bjelica / Jonas Jerebko
KAT / Derrick Favors / Cole Aldrich
Picks - 2018 CHA 1st (Lotto protected), none out

He is only signed through next season. If SAS wants to maximize their return, they had better be sure that the team acquiring him would feel good about re-signing him. Lots of players give a 'list' of teams they would agree to be traded to. If he doesn't get traded to one of those destinations, he can just go there as a FA (provided one of those teams have the cap space) in 2019.

I'm confused. He doesn't like playing for arguably one of the greatest coaches and for one of the best run franchises that win 50 games a season even in their offseasons?

Does he not like basketball anymore?
ok fine
