Watching NBA Countdown (Shoutout to T Mac and Chauncey Billups on the promotion) and they are talking about how LA is supposedly upset with the Spurs and particularly Kawhi. What possibly could be going on here?

Jackie MacMullen said Spurs might trade him this season

Aldridge is a mentally fragile and sensitive kinda guy. Who knows what has him upset could be a myriad of things.

Not sure how anybody could be upset with Kawhi. He is the least self-absorbed player in the league. It took pop and the big 3 begging him last year to start to take over and have an MVP runner up type season.

Not sure where I seen it, hell it might have been here but I read somewhere that he wants to be the main guy instead of Kawhi or something like that.

Man to me, he is the main guy inside now that Tim is gone I'd say he's the #1 if not then 1a

Reports have talked about how he doesn't fit their scheme and doesn't follow the Spurs way. Same ego and selfishness issues that started to surface in Rip City

He wants to be the guy, but the spurs are like the patriots defense. There is no true guy, just a bunch of guys who play well together and sacrifice for the system.

He thinks he's better than he is and wants to be the focus. that's why Portland let him go.

Portland didn't 'let him go' they had no say in it and wanted to keep him.

All of this started with Jackie MacMullen. I don't know how she knows something that no Spurs beat writer is aware of?

It's basketball season

This is weird, outside of Steven Jackson the Spurs hardly ever have drama. I can't think of what LMA would be upset about. He's about to average 20ppg, be an all-star and at least make the WCF. I am not thinking anything of these rumors. Spurs run a tight ship

Spurs ain't made the WCF in years. And they def won't be better this season than last.

They are trending downward not up. They hit the jackpot with Parker , Duncan , ginobili. Those days are over with and Aldridge and Leonard aren't good enough to do serious postseason damage as the top 2 players on a team.

They are trending downward and yet they set the franchise wins record last season? With Leonard and LMA as their two best players?

1 playoff series win in last 2 seasons. Aging roster with no young talent to speak of besides Leonard. probably the most Unathletic squad in the league. Win in regular season because of system and bench players knowing their role but when playoff time comes around they aren't a contender. This isn't new news though
