We probably wont be seeing Kawhi years down the line being one of those cats who go broke. He seems to down to earth and conservative to let that happen. He is with the perfect organization too for his temperament. If he was drafted to another team he may not have reached his immense potential that the Spurs have unlocked.

He won't go broke unless some tim Duncan shyt happens and his manager or someone swindles him out of millions

And to think Indiana traded him.

Whenever Pop wants one of your young players, no matter he's offering in return.

The answer is, NO

He had to go to the Spurs, Chip Engelland helped him get his jumpshot. As great as Kawhi is, I'm not sure any other team gets his game as polished as San Antonio did.

"He was a worker who took his own lamps to 6:30 a.m. sessions at San Diego State's Viejas Arena, when the lights were off. He lost his dad at 16—Mark Leonard was shot and killed at the car wash he owned in Compton—but Kawhi's self-effacing manner goes back much further. He never even liked celebrating his birthday. In San Antonio he opted to live with his mom, his bedroom upstairs and hers down. They played Jenga at night over enchiladas."

"When Kawhi makes a mistake, he's almost apologetic," Popovich says. "He doesn't want to disappoint anybody. There are times he does something well, and I have to tell him, 'That was super. That was fantastic. That was a helluva job. You can smile now. You can feel great about yourself.'"

so much humility and positivity:mjcry:
