Favorite NBA Players ☛ Kawhi Leonard

“When Kawhi makes a mistake, he’s almost apologetic. He doesn’t want to disappoint anybody. There are times he does something well, and I have to tell him, ‘That was super. That was fantastic. That was a helluva job. You can smile now. You can feel great about yourself.’ If I bring him out too early, for example, he’ll go like this..what he’s saying is, ‘Pop, why the f‑‑‑ are you bringing me out so early?’ but he’d never actually say that. So I tell him, ‘I’ll get back to you,’ and he nods and sits down.” Gregg Popovich
