..with all due respect to the coaching legacy that popovich has amassed, he gambled with his usual shtick and lost.

• kawhi was injured on the job
• spurs org/medical staff gave their assessment/diagnosis/recommendation
• kawhi didn't agree and sought out a 2nd opinion
• after further evaluation, kawhi chose plan B.

since then, er'ybody and their mama has chimed with an opinion about why kawhi isn't doing more to get back on the court.

in all this, he never broke any rules or disclosed any info to the public.

let that man live.
