i shouldnt have laughed at this..but got damn lol
What you don't realize yet but will if Kawhi resigns with your team is he has a degenerative issue with his thigh that he will have to manage for the rest of his playing career. It's one of the issues that bothered him with the Spurs and a reason he rested a bunch with the Raptors this season. It's also one of the reasons he fell out with San Antonio because they told him this and he didn't believe it.
Yes he knee supposedly bothered him in the playoffs but he grabbed that thigh alot also. Either way I'm happy for Toronto and hope he stays there
I ain't gonna take too much more of this Celtics slander....
His sister passing and his injury do not correlate.
His sister passing was in the season in which he choose to play nobody made him.
His injury issue was during the playoffs. Two totally different times..
*They should of never gave you niggas a championship*
I know you a Spurs fan but you sure about the bold?
Most of the time the story goes the Spurs told Kawhi he was fine and he kept telling them his shit wasn't right. Then some of the players started questioning him on if he was really hurt type shit. Tony Parker even said some shit like how is injury was way worse than Kawhi injury and basically how he should be playing. After all that shit Kawhi was like fuck the spurs.
I don't know what's true or not but I've never heard the bold. You could be right though.
Tony Parker never said publicly Kawhi should be playing. Lmao. The only thing publicly San Antonio did wrong was when Pop said the Training staff cleared Kawhi but he is still getting 2nd opinions and to ask Kawhi's group if you have questions. Pop should've just said he is injured and will be back when he isn't.
The reason the players approached Kawhi is because there was constantly conflicting reports being put out in the media. Pop even stated in an interview that Kawhi is most likely done for the rest of the season ( video below) at one point but reports from somebody on his side refuted Pop's statements a few day later. The players addressed him after that because of all the confusion and nobody knowing what was going on because he was barely around the team .
Manu never dissed Kawhi and maybe Tony shouldn't have said what he did but it didn't sound like he was chastising him. He pretty much said for Kawhi to stay positive and believe in the training staff because they helped him with a worse injury. Tony's quad ruptured and came off his bone, Kawhi didn't even get surgery and after the regular season said he was 100%.. lmao. The whole timeline is below on the craziness that occurred but people seem to ignore and videos.

I talked about his tendinopathy months ago. I'm fully aware of what's good with his injury, how our medical staff has dealt with it and why I know he isn't going anywhere.
As for why he fell out with San Antonio... a misdiagnosis, failure to come up with a proper treatment plan, then his vets turning on him were enough for him to bounce.
Imagine you telling your niggas you hurt and they turning around to the media saying they had a similar injury 10 times worst (Tony parker), and post game scrums telling other niggas not involved you disappointed with dude (manu).
Danny green addressed this. Said niggas did Kawhi dirty and he understood why Kawhi moved the way he did.
I ain't bout to watch those videos just never heard your version is all.
Never said the bolded. So it seems we agree. Niggas in your section was on some wack shit.
Danny Green said In the Breakfast Club interview that people asked him what was going on and that's it.. nobody forced or tried to force Kawhi to come back and even Danny stated that on numerous occasions. I don't blame Kawhi for not coming back if he is injured but you have to let the Training staff know what is going on. Its obvious as hell that San Antonio didn't know what was going on with him and if you look at the actual facts instead of the talk show BS you can see that.
He addressed it on the green room. Can't remember which one. But I get why you're defensive.
Shits irrelevant either way so I'm not gonna keep going back and forth over semantics.
