You can’t expect nikkas who view Lebron As competition to sign with him. Kawhi and Bron play the same position. Bron is currently still viewed as the best SF ever and has been a road block for both Kawhi and KD. Notice even KD didn’t want to play with Bron and we all know KD had no issues with joining stars. Bron has been considered the best player in the league forever, and grasp most if not all the attention with a circus following him. You can’t believe Dudes like Kawhi want to play with him or be in his shadow. Especially since he’s aging now.
Everybody is not Dwyane Wade or Chris Bosh, sacrificing for Lebron’s benefit
Few years ago, i want to say summer 2014 before Lebron returned to Cleveland, Kobe was asked if he'd want Lebron to come to the Lakers.
Kobe said sure but he didn't think Lebron (who saw him as direct competition) would
want to come over to help him (Kobe) win more rings. It would be counter productive.
I felt it was the same with Kawhi (why help Bron when you want to surpass his ring count?), which is why i thought the 1+1 with the Raps and
then whatever comes after would make more sense, from an alpha male standpoint. But this Clippers job he just pulled off, shyt... he's in the best position he could possibly have been in.
