Officially not worth the trouble anymore. Its not his fault he's injured, but this is the worst season for it to happen, again. The Clippers have a real chance at a title if Kawhi could return healthy.

Glass man, but it’s not like they a better option. He is top 5ish player when healthy.

Its all his fault hes hurt. Its his body not mine. If i was good enough for the nba there is no way im going to let injuries make me not get these checks. Id be like vince carter. He know he was done but never got hurt so teams still wanted him. Nobody should rate kawhi or anyother injury prone player as top 15 if they cant be on the court. Kawhi is like the ice cream machine at mc donalds. always out of order.

Don't like it when teams do this. It puts undue pressure on the player to rush back when they probably shouldn't. Warriors did this to Durant and we all know what happened.

Doubt Kawhi would rush back though but still annoying. He played through a lot for Raptors couple of years back and could barely walk straight by the end of it so no doubt he would play if he could as he fully understands what's at stake better than anyone on that team.
