I'm just saying that this section for the "Utah Jazz" has been convoluted into anything from the NBA
Ok, I'll stop giving you a hard time. Enjoy your day.
Also I think people are under-estimating what Masai Ujiri will be able to do to convince Kawhi to stay. IIRC he's very well liked by players around the League and I remembered when he traded for Serge Ibaka, he decided to re-sign with Toronto for 3 years.
I think Masai will fancy his chance at re-signing Kawhi as well.

It'd be great if that happened. It's kinda sad to see players and organizations spurn each other all the time now. I still wonder who the Jazz could have obtained if Gordon was honest from day 1.
What I also don't get is why would the Spurs not wait til the USA basketball practice to showcase Kawhi before trading him?
Do they really need to showcase Kawhi.
He's an MVP candidate. Isn't that enough?
No, showcase that he's healthy again.
That's what a team physical is for.

The risk of downside is much higher than the chance someone will think Kawhi is better than he was when he last played. If Kawhi sucks or plays only so-so, people will start to think he has lingering injuries.
Teams don't get a physical until they go through with the trade. By showing that he can move around and shoot, etc, you (in theory) should widen the pool of potential suiters.
I suppose.
