If I'm the Warriors I simply tell him, we paid you, don't reach out again.

“Hey man, I’m just wondering… why do we only have 9 players with 2 weeks until camp?”

Jimmy Butler has reached out to the Warriors’ front office to try to understand exactly what their plan is 😬, per @DaltonJ_Johnson “In that ESPN article, they mentioned that Draymond and Jimmy have checked in and reached out to Jonathan Kuminga. I can confidently say that Jimmy Butler has also reached out to the team and been like, ‘what's going on here? I just wanted to know the plan.’” (Via podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/dub…)

@APH00PS My thinking exactly.
I'm betting the Clippers are hoping the NBA voids Kawhi's contract. Which would, of course, activate the union lawyers.

@TheAthletic @johnhollinger Nobody would give him anywhere near a max deal. Hell, he might not pass a real physical anymore because of those knees.

Voiding Kawhi Leonard's Clippers contract is the most direct penalty available to the NBA.
It’s also the most problematic for the rest of the league, writes @johnhollinger.

@LegionHoops @DALHoopsJournal @Fullcourtpass Is Balmer distancing himself from Kawhi's dealings with Aspiration, hoping the NBA finds something and voids Kawhi's deal?
Is that why Balmer specifically said he had no knowledge of their deal past the introduction?
Now we're getting leaks from "insiders"?

@AlamoOnTheRise @RoyalFamily Nothing but whores in that picture.

@RoyalFamily Trump's handlers just keep applying the paint to his right hand to hide the bruising.
"Nothing to see here. Move along."

@TheDunkCentral @Baxter The Clippers are leaking to distance themselves from Kawhi a little.
Balmer did the same in his soft ESPN interview. He made clear that "He didn't know" anything about the agreement between Kawhi and Aspiration.
English

Some people within the Clippers organization had grown frustrated with Kawhi Leonard’s injuries and lack of availability, per @Baxter
“Leonard entered the 2023-24 season eligible for a contract extension. As the Clippers considered their options, a former team staffer said some within the team had been fatigued by Leonard's injuries and lack of availability. And because of that, the ex-staffer said, the Clippers could wield leverage. Leonard had been eligible for a four-year, $220 million max contract, but the team prioritized preserving salary cap flexibility -- especially because of second-apron restrictions -- in part because they were also in extension talks with George.”

@BackupHangman It's flag football. Lmfao!!
I don't care about American football.
Definitely don't give a shit about this.

@TheDunkCentral What will probably happen is...
They will suspend the 1% owner for a year.
Fine the Clippers $7 million.
Take 1 future first round pick.
Which adds up to nothing, basically.

@DrGuru_ At this point, the Warriors are effectively holding him hostage.
RFA needs to go away.
