-Lawrence Frank, when asked if the plan is still to win with Kawhi Leonard: “Plan is still to win with Kawhi.”
"Kawhi loves size. He loves shooting. He loves skill. He loves IQ. He loves feel. ...Those are the types of players that he's always kind of been attracted to. We always have ongoing conversations. You know, Kawhi's had some trips . He's out and about a little bit. But we've sat down over the last couple weeks, and we're always in constant communication with Kawhi and his his representation."
Kawhi非常偏好體型。他喜歡投射能力、喜歡技術、喜歡高球商,也喜歡球感。這些特質一直以來都是他會受吸引的球員類型。
我們之間始終保持著持續的對話。你知道的,Kawhi最近去了幾趟旅行(笑),他有一點在外奔波。但過去幾週我們有坐下來聊過,而且我們與Kawhi以及他的經紀團隊,一直都保持著密切且不間斷的溝通。

The stoicism, it turns out, has an origin story. “I think it started off just being on the Spurs,” he says, “just seeing the older vets and how they carried themselves and what they wanted their players to act like on the floor.” The Spurs, under Gregg Popovich, famously ran one of the most understated franchises in professional sports — a culture shaped in no small part by Tim Duncan, who won five championships and retired without ever seeming particularly interested in being celebrated for it. Leonard was young and paying close attention. “Once I started doing that, they kind of put me in the Tim Duncan thing because they wanted me to be the face of the franchise,” he says. “And I don’t know, it just kind of carried on from there.” What started as institutional absorbed itself into something personal — until the composure was no longer about fitting a mold but about genuinely not needing the external noise to confirm anything.
