The drama isn't just about Cooper Flagg's stellar performance at Team USA scrimmages. Kawhi Leonard's withdrawal from Team USA has raised eyebrows, especially given concerns about his knee from Grant Hill, Steve Kerr, and Lawrence Frank. Derek White replaces Leonard, sparking controversy, notably with Jaylen Brown. With recent twists in the Team USA saga, including Jayson Tatum's selection over Brown, tensions are palpable.

DON'T YOU DARE CALL KAWHI THE GREATEST RAPTOR OF ALL TIME! LIES BLASPHEMY. LOOWRY IS THE GROAT POERIOD END OF STORY, KAWHI WAS NOTHING BUT A RENTAL. I DON'T CARE HOW GOOD HE WAS HE WAS NOT A TRUE RAPTOR AT ALL EVER!
Probably need to do away with the continuous loop of your shorts, it just reeks of desperation for a cheap attempt for extra views in full to same video. Just fyi
During the regular season Kawhi is getting ready for the playoffs. In the playoffs he's getting ready for the next season.
Such an underrated comment lol
😂😂😂
Even know it make no sense some how if look at his specific career it works.
FAAAAACCCCTTTTZZZZZ!!!! 😂😂😂😂
😂
Go get your bag im not gonna play anyway 😂😂😂
And neither is Paul George, might as well stager those contracts around the league instead of it being on 1 team.
Kawhi misses more games than he plays
@@tank9438he played 77 games last season khawi shows up for the first regular season game and two playoff games consistently for the past 5 years
@@tank9438we can tell you are a casual. PG played 74 games this season 😂 He was healthy.
@@Skills50PG is definitely going to play. He played just about the whole season last season while kawhi barely played. Idk why people like you are still trying to push that narrative.
Kawhi was in a press conference two days ago saying he was going to play tomorrow, tomorrow comes and he withdrew from Team USA. Lmao, this guy is something else.
Team USA and clippers told him not too
Stop they did not let him play and it was total bs they did this to him.
Prolly not his call
@@00ruva00if he's limping why would he think he could play
@@DanMarin-lf7fe Clippers paying him $150 million for the next 3 years & just lost PG. They weren't gonna risk Kawhi getting injured again in the Olympics.
For any athlete, being an Olympian is huge.
Man he good he got 3 rings two with the spurs and one with the raptors
@@johnbeauvil7122he have 2 rings
That’s just how Kawhi is man. He’s a pretty low key guy. I don’t think he was throwing shade at his guy
He’s a fun guy.
Nah he’s a shady dude.
@@seananthony7494gotta say i agree after years of chillin on the bench
@@BatmanBeyondBelief so kawhi leonard is "shady" because he has an extremely severe degenerative knee condition? didnt know that made you evil all of a sudden.
Truly Kawhi Leonard is something else he literally gets hurt before the playoffs even started then he plans to not even play one game for the Los Angeles Clippers and then he gets selected for team USA basketball for the Paris Olympics , then he proceeds to withdraw from it after one day? Man this guy is something else
Kawhi just as bad as a usa player as we are. He never played a game for the usa.
he is a " fun guy" 😎 after all
As a Spurs fan I agree
Kawhi is done as a star player he's body definitely giving up on him
He already got paid from the clippers. He going to load management again. He only play during contract year. PG learn from him, he may continue his load management way with the Sixers but at least PG needs a ring so who knows but Kawhi just stealing from the Clippers at this point.
Dumbest thing Kawai did was leave the raptors
As a raptors fan.. I approve of this message 😂
Wanted to come back home and I don’t blame him
You could say choosing the clippers over the lakers
I’m glad Kawhi came home, they didn’t deserve him either
@@robgreene9680I can understand not wanting to join LeBron vs paving your own way because that season he too had the chance to win a championship on his third team along with LeBron.
3:01 It’s very simple: there was no “almost Toronto” in this situation. OKC was asking for half the young core AND 4 first round picks for PG. That’s a no-go right there. From the Kawhi camp, Uncle Dennis was negotiating in bad faith. Without getting into specifics, he was asking for ways to circumvent the salary cap. The overall cost of trading for PG and re-signing Kawhi was unrealistic. PG is either lying, or truly didn’t know what was happening in the negotiations.
Lol Kawai literally had an Entire Career before he went to the Clippers.
He should’ve stay in Toronto
Kawhi Leonard got some nerve to try and push to play in the Olympics. The clippers rightfully shut that down
Boy what? Respect that man hes better than your favorite player
Does the word "narcissist" have any application to Kawhi's actions since forcing his way out of Spurs, placing a chance a multiple NBA titles in another Country because he wanted to live in LA on his terms, dragging Paul George selfishly with him and then fumble away 4 Clipper Seasons with no Finals appearances???
@willmarinac5201 not even remotely. If you're looking for a Narcissist look at lebronze
Kawhi is the greatest player to be a Raptor but he's not the greatest Raptor of all time, thats Kyle or Demar or Bosh or Vince.
100%
It's Vince and it's not close
You guys are dumb
KL treat the NBA like a warehouse job. lol
Kawhi basically retired after 2019. He has not been the same player since. He was injured for 3 yrs in a row, missed the entire season 1 yr and most recently couldnt help his team from getting ousted in the first rd of the Playoffs. I think he's close to retirement. He's looking washed up.
Banished? Ex Communicated? Spurs ain’t a religion. Just a 1 of 1 sports organization. He was moved to Toronto because Demar was the ONLY quality all star caliber player they could get at the time for Kawhi, especially after his uncle made it clear they only wanted to play in LA. After that every organization offered peanuts cause they knew Spurs had little leverage. To be honest, it was the best and only move they could do and looking back, I’M SO HAPPY HE’S GONE!!! That trade has played out in to SO MANY picks for us and now its #WEMBYSZN!!! 😄. Thanks Kawhi! For everything!🙏🏼✌️
I will never understand why kawhi wanted choke artist P
Pandemic P evolved in time from multiple Playoff failures.
I've got very little respect for Kawhi because of his load management history. The team mascot is more reliable than him. The mascot should get those millions.
Kawhi, PG, Westbrook, Harden all from LA. They all just wanted to be home and the only Franchise dumb enough not to see this play was the Clippers. Nothing good was gon come out of this team.
Frank-ly dumb ass.
Its always a red flag when players only want to join team because the location or roster is convenient. Clippers mortgaged their whole future for guys who dont care about the team and they will be irrelevant until next decade, the earliest

Bro nobody want to be in Canada
@@MrJuandiego1988 as a canadian i approve of this message . HELP!!!!!!!!
Exactly like him
JB should have been picked over Kawhi or Booker in the first place. That part is easy to call. From what I've read of the reporting, Derrick White was already selected as an injury replacement as soon as the roster was announced. But way to go, Jaylen, that's a nice way to make friends with potential sponsors, aside from putting your own teammates in an awkward position. That will be an interesting training camp heading into next season.
JB didn't get chosen cuz he wasn't White, literally, haha. The disrespect is unreal
I'm with him that he should have been selected. But his response shows that his ego is part of the problem. He's making it about himself because if this team can't win with the talent already available, they won't win even if he was part of the team. Can't he be excited for his own teammate? Isn't it better to wish everyone good luck? And if he chooses to beef with the sponsors, good luck with that. Still love JB, and I hope Boston FO and coaches will smooth this over before training camp.
@@xiongfong22 nah. jb plays solo ball him and tatum plays solo ball
@@willingexile3374 yeah hes an ass. everytime boston lost hes a sore loser... that i own you steph did messed with is head
@@xiongfong22 nah, Derrick is probably a way better fit for USA team, they dont need one more guy to drive to the paint and dunk or midrangers, they need more options on defense and catch n shoot 3s, with Curry on court a sharpshooter is way more valuable than he would be in any other place
For every push-up that this like get I will do that many comments
Reword this gang u not escapin these push ups
I did three bro
Begging for likes are you?
@@ADM.II. hell yeah
Bro job had one
Spurs fan here. I am still expecting an apology from the entire NBA fans for ridiculing my Spurs. And, I expect a huge basket of Churros to be delivered to Charles Barkley. Why? Emotional damages.
Selecting 3 players from the most recent championship team and none of them were the ECF Finals MVP or the Finals MVP is actually kinda wild.
Tatum is better than brown and white is one of the best perimeter defenders in the league.
The team needs to fit, certain positions need to be covered. It’s not about choosing the top 20 and just going with those. What if they are all Point guards?
@@CapitanTJ1358 that's just silly. They should have built the team around the champions. Build the core around the Celtics then add on the necessary components after. Who needs Kawhi whose always injured anyway?
@@Anon-qp3ktbuild team usa from celtics? Lmfaooooooo
@@BatmanBeyondBeliefthey’re the best team in the country
Anybody notice kawhi double dribble after getting that's steal? 😂
Kawhi, PG13, Fred Van Fleet, Pascal Siakam and Jonas Valančiūnas on the same team? Could have won in Toronto with that starting lineup. I think they had Norman Powell too at that time. Crazy roster!
As a Torontonian, I can only imagine what would have happened if PG went to Toronto...
Toronto was still a playoff team when Kawhi left... Oh well... what could have been
You just had to throwing in bonny for no reason 😂
fr i don’t think bro is ready to play for team usa😂
Derek white, jrue holiday, and tatum but no brown is crazy
They are all bums who got gifted the chip
@@Pharoh_95no way jrues a bum
I wouldn’t be surprised if LeGM had something to do with this…
Hey, go get your bag.. im not gonna play anyway 😂😂😂😂😂
Kawhi gets injured from carrying that heavy ass bag
How was it not Jaylen Brown???
They dont need another star
He isn't signed with Nike
theres a million other players they could have signed over him
@@user-xd5zq8gg4fsuch a dumb narrative.
@@bradspraggins5157 Neither is Steph and he's there. It may have to do with him throwing shots at Nike though.
The funny thing is everyone forgot that brown won finals mvp and on team USA is Tatum, white, AND JRUE HOLIDAY like everyone forgot that Jrue is also on team USA and the Celtics
Gotta lotta luv for u Mike.....I recently just realized I subscribed to you early.....Just because Kawhi has locs does not mean he does not care about his hair....LOL
Derrick white lowk him
derrick white is super talented but the thought of him over JB doesn’t sit right
@@HoraceKock yes it does....jaylen brown got lucky with the fmvp, should of been tatum.
@@kinggambino3698Tatum is my favorite player and I can honestly say you’re tweaking. Through the regular season and post season, Brown has proved that he’s worth the bag they paid him. JT is just the Lightskin poster child. I love him… but that’s the truth
@@kinggambino3698Tatum was maybe the 4th best player in the finals you can’t be serious brown was leagues ahead of bro in the finals without doubt their best player
"Uhh, I'm a fun guy"
-Kawhi
Just needed the Team USA jersey though😂
Brown and Tatum are both 2 way forwards.That is why they get compared to each other a lot . Tatum has blossomed a lot over the past few years, and Brown had a break out season this year.That is why it is so talked about
That's some serious disrespect towards Jaylen Brown.
I wonder if any has to do with Tatum's comments about how questions on if he can lead a team to a championship might be involved? I mean I think he is their best player but JB is the one that's been stepping up when they've needed it.
that's how good Jrue is. no one complains he's in there while his teammates are having all controversies 🤣🤣
Hoping that Kawhi can bounce back and win another championship
kwahi just seems like he doesn’t want to play at all sometimes he probably doesn’t even be hurt
A mike video without hearing "the ghoulden state warriors" atleast 10 times is a rare occurrence 🤣🤣
Kawhi has become Ben Simmons 2.0. Dude lost his fire 🔥.
What George Paul forgot to mention was the deafening 45 seconds of silence at the beginning of Kawhi's response
yo bro, keep at it. love your videos. a loyal fan. keep posting and get to the 1 mil!
Imagine Kawhi, PG, Pascal and Lowry in Toronto. That team would have cooked
Let me fact check Kawhi’s next injury.
They actually gave a lower contract to kawhi, they wanted to do the same for pg but he didn't want that and just wanted a place to go where he can contend and have that bag.
As a spurs fan, I’m obviously past kawhi but talking about the past all I can think of is the fall out and how everyone was bashing the spurs for alienating and losing their star. He won a chip but since then things have been quite disappointing and no one talks about the diagnosis the spurs originally gave him (degenerative disease) is actually why he’s so injured all the time. Ngl though if he didn’t leave when he did we would prob not have Wemby and be building around a broken star
That face is hilarious 😆" Don't look like that"!
"Brohnny has earned this" 💀
Kawhi's new hair looks awesome
Everyday the raptors are bigger and bigger winners. They got a chip, and they don’t have to deal with kawhi drama
nah they only won when he was there and never since
Lol I predicted he wasn't gonna play right when the roster was announced.
I still wish the pacers had both back then
K Lenard backing out the team makes this funnier 😂
Why don’t we start putting him in the same category as Ben Simmons.. yes I know he’s done more, but they’re both available about the same
brotha ben won’t even sniff an ECF game again let alone 2 rings, ben simmons is a different caliber of sell. ben has glass feelings kawhi got glass bones
Lol, no. Mr. face of load management, always injured Kawhi played 57 more games than Simmons over the last 5 years.
The bronny part😂 and then when he said jokes aside🤣
It's funny because people love Tatum and say he's better when brown is better. It's also a slap to the face that the finals MVP was overlooked for Tatum and Derrick white. If Brown hasn't considered leaving the Celtics he might now since he sees that even being a finals MVP won't get him out of Tatum's shadow.
Team USA needs a defensive guard who can hold their own and won’t complain. Jaylen Brown would be a 5th option on offense and that’s not what team USA needed.
Pop and the Spurs were right he’s not a leader.
Derrick white adds more intangible skills than kyrie or Jaylen brown would. It’s not about who’s better, it’s about filling out a roster.
Kahwi is HIM😂💯go get your bag is crazy F the ring
The Bronny trolling is wild 😂😂😂😂
Bronny could solo the Olympics. Get at me 😂
I love the boyish "nice" after the number 969 lol
The NBA itself declared Kawhi to be a top 75 player in nba history, and he is one of three players (afaik) to win finals mvp with multiple franchises, along with LeBron James and Kareem Abdul Jabbar. Hes in the hall of fame if he retires tomorrow. Hes in the hall of fame if he retired 3 years ago
I find it wild that Kawhi was trying to play in the Olympics given how hampered he is by injuries, good he pulled out before things got started cause he should be healthy for at least some of the season.
Paul wanted the same money which the clippers said ok but Pg wanted a no trade clause. And I agree with the clippers no way. Curry and bron should be the only players with that. Idk how Beal got that.
You don't know the whole truth buddy
idk if the Clipper were ok with the money part but i agree idk hoe Beal got that clause. Warriors should try to trade Wiggs for KD... who knows
@@Bix-biummm PG said exactly that in his podcast he wanted the same money and no trade clause PG gets hurt alot too
I’m sorry I’m on PG side how tf you gonna pay someone I’m clearly out working foh💀
A no trade clause aint some lifetime achievement award. You are worth what buyers are willing to pay for you. PG already had a way better offer from the 76ers, so it was normal to ask for something valuable enough to match the huge difference between the offers.
When he feels like playing, Kawhi is the closest thing to Jordan I've seen. He had it on both sides of the ball, just doesn't want it.

Kawahi like an apathetic partner. Took some of the best years of Paul George life. Lol😂😂😂
honestly his 2019 season props up his legacy. its over hasnt done shit since 2019
#TogetherEvery1AchievesMore TEAM‼️
Mike u forgot that Jrue holiday is also on Team USA, thats 3 celtics players and none are Jaylen Brown
that’s truly insane
Maybe there's more to it. Maybe Brown said no. Maybe he failed some test - could be Kawhi's issue too.
Those images weren't his reaction, it was for his birthday lol
As a clippers fan, it’s the least he can do. I was pissed he was even selected and going to play to begin with. He literally just watched his team get eliminated 1st round in the playoffs from the sidelines AGAIN. Lost our second best player for absolutely nothing too. We should’ve traded PG13 to the Warriors and traded Kawhi for assets this season instead of offering a new max contract so we can finally rebuild properly as a franchise. I honestly would’ve liked to keep PG13 and trade Kawhi, I didn’t want him to leave…
Derek White is a warrior and we're proud to have him! 🎉
I wonder if Kawhi still blames my Spurs for his current injuries.
I had to resort to the Kawhi Highlights to see why everybody considered this man the closest to Kobe and Michael.
Bc the last 4 years he resembled Kwame more instead of Lebron.
The crazy part winning a championship to a Nation (Toronto) I would had stayed.
They would treat him like a KING.
The bubble ring doesn’t hold any weight. Your comparison trying to call it a defending championship is a joke.
None of these older players, especially the injury proned ones should not be playing in the summer. This includes all the old guys really, especially Kawai and Embid. It should just be guys under 25.
Are you serious Bronny, how do you not pick the Finals MVP? Besides Jaylen Brown there are better options out there compared to Bronny James!
You forgot Jrue Holiday!
if kawhi stayed on toronto, they would have won probably 2 championships
during that year he made the team much better and the players improved too, they had the most depth in the entire nba, kyle lowry, pascal siakim, og, powell, vanfleet, ibaka, gasol
and the next season without him the made it to 7 games in the semis
Always here we gonna do a Jamaican version your so informative loving this channel my 1s an 2s is that Jalen Brown gonna be a BLACK monument and they are trying to defuse what his potential is
I can’t believe they BOTH almost went to Toronto…. Me being from Canada, this news hurts mah hart, mah sole…. 😭😭😭😭😤
Android Kawhl Leonard: Dis shit ain't what it do, ba-by...Hur-HUUUR!
Kawhi is getting called for the Paralympic Games
He still has the best, funniest laugh in the NBA 😅
To 3:15, they wanted to win another franchise their first chip. At the time, only 2 players had won chips with 3 different teams. Lebron and Danny Green have since joined that list.
Geting ready to rest on the regular season
The Spurs are still benefiting from the picks they got trading Kawhi. Without him leaving, they would not have also gotten Wemby. They have a bright future and Kawhi's sun is setting. GSG!
