Kawhi Leonard became a homegrown hero in San Antonio after being drafted in 2011 and winning Finals MVP a few years later. However, the way the relationship deteriorated is still something of secrecy. His former teammate in San Antonio sheds some light.

Rudy one of those guys who is a perfect example of a guy with a really solid career. Solid.. consistent... even all star level at times. Career 16/6/2 over 17 seasons. Best averages were 21/7/4... awesome player

True but the Spurs never should have fallen off in the first place. Duncan era was coming close to an end so they prepared and had a guy in place to take over seamlessly and he weirded out got traded to Canada in what has to be the craziest trade ever because it was supposed to be a big F U and actually ended up swinging a title 🤣 But then again in retrospect you know now that Kawhi is either soft or his knee is destroyed so all in all you got lucky and then you got lucky again.

@brandonp8684 Месяц назад

Nobody lied about his injuries situation. One of the reasons Melo said what he did was because the Spurs said he had a degenerative condition with his thigh and it has turned out to be true. The guy refused to keep the team up to date of his recovery after they turned over the rehab to his people. Rudy is pretty much pointing this out in the video, while being diplomatic
