  1. Alright. Now that doesn’t make any sense lol. It’s good to hear there was no setback. But Frank is basically saying it was Team USA’s decision, which is the last party (between Clips, Kawhi and Team USA) that I would’ve thought would’ve wanted him out.

    Yeah no shit, grant hill already came out and said it was team USA’s decision.

    He was clearly cut because he wasn’t up to the standard required – whether that’s because he had another set back or because he’s just not able to play at that level after all the injuries, who knows

  3. Both sides are denying they’re the one responsible for making the call. Super strange

    Kawhis conditioning was probably behind everyone else’s because of being out with injury and he wasn’t as close to game speed as the rest.

    Seems pretty obvious. Reports were that Kawhi looked good during the early drills and scrimmages but being in game shape is totally different.

    Stein reported Kawhi’s camp reached out to them expressing concern. I think kawhi being pulled stems from his camp honestly

    That’s bullshit. Team USA/Grant Hill took the fall for the team so the Clipps didn’t come off as dream killers for a player wanting to suit up and play for his country. Or if what L. Frank says is true, then they don’t give a shit if he gets injured anymore and are moving accordingly with or without Kawhi

  7. Something sounds fishy to me.. I might be going down the rabbit hole but I wonder if he wasn’t with new balance if he would be with the team still

    I was eager to see Kawhi cook during the Olympics. My pain never ends

    I think it’s team USA saving face for Nike
