    Con: weather, far from family

    It's a toss up.
    Seldom is this mentioned.

    The family dynamic can be a game changer. Lou Williams would take his wife & GF with his kids to his various stops. If KL's wife is reluctant about moving to TO during the season (for whatever reason) then that definitely becomes an issue. KL feels like the type not to push/force that change. Hope it isn't the case but ...

      I agree BUT I also think Masai and team have considered this and likely have had the full court press on Kawhi’s family to make them feel at home.

      • I can see Kawhi's family staying in SoCal for this season but not if he signs here longer term. I believe he lives with his girlfriend/mother of their daughter. I know he's not married and the kid is under 3? His girlfriend was born in San Diego and went to San Diego State U so the pull is strong.

        I don't really care about his private life beyond how it impacts his playing here but wonder what the odds of her moving to Toronto for a few years and spending the off season at the new digs in San Diego if he signs here for 2 years

        • When Pop visited Kawhi for the last time. It got out that Kawhi wasn't happy that the Spurs didn't involve his family in talks. Family is important to the man, and they'll work out what's best for the family and for him.

          Kawhi's daughter is not school age, so its probably easy enough for his GF to bounce between their Toronto home and SoCal home as needed.

          If he signs with Toronto I would think he would want his family with him during those long winters, and their children's education plan will be considered.

            Well that and Spurs tried to assassinate his uncle's character.

              That sounded a lot more exciting until I got to the last word in your sentence.

                  If this is true then I think Kawhi was justified to want out.

                  • The insole in Kawhi’s new shoe.

                    • Just saw that. Is it in all the models? Hard to tell. Either way...vote for that one! He wouldn't ruin a perfectly good shoe by leaving next year, right? He's staying!

                      • I mean, insoles are easily removed and replaced...

                        But the fact that it’s there at all...

                            I thought it was an excellent sign until I realized it could symbolize a dead Raptor too, or the ancient past... now I don't know what to think lol
