Honestly as long as the clippers org is handling it fine… the dude IS money when he’s on the court! So just trying to strategize and find a way to have him available for the playoffs should be worth it in itself lol. Now making the playoffs isn’t a given though… their team is deep though. He may just par-time the regular season again and it’ll be fine.

He’s been load managing for the last four years and still misses the most games of anyone. Kawhi Leonard is THE example of the nonsense that is load management. Your body cannot build resistance to swelling and inflammation, without playing on a consistent basis. Load management was always a fallacy.

The NBA needs to implement an IR like the NFL…..if you need to miss time to an “injury” then it’s 4 games minimum!

Stephen A is like that one annoying co-worker everyone has. Constantly disrespecting, blah blah blah, and never has the whole context of a situation but is so quick to make judgement for clicks. Shameless af talking about peoples money now. Dude is after EVERYONE.

He can’t even say the word “Raptors” when he mentions the year “they” won the championship. It’s still killing him ????

I like that athletes in the NBA get guaranteed money.
But
You’re gonna get guys like Kawhi when his paper is secure

Used to be a favorite, not anymore. Fans want to see NBA stars play full throttle, not half-assed effort from so-called stars.

Man, until you’ve had an acl tear, you can’t really critique how someone returns to play. It’s not as simple as he’s making. Some days you feel unstoppable, and the next few days the knee feels extremely weak and feeble. Not to mention your mind plays ALOT of tricks on you. It’s not as simple as just suiting up and playing every day. Gotta be patient.

Trash take yet again from Mr. Smith. If “he’s not healthy play him”. If he rests now and makes the playoffs was it worth it?
