JYD is in town for a charity fundraising event, and was interviewed by Landsberg in The Morning yesterday.
First, he's still nuts. Interview started with a lengthy JYD bark!
Second - he's a great interview, and repped the charity event very well.
Third - on Kawhi's chances of staying here.
He talked about how good the Raptors organization was and how well he and his family had been treated.
Talked about how as an athlete, your body is everything to your career, and Raps have done everything Kawhi could ever want in terms of getting his health back. Including load management days on games that might have had an impact on the standings, always put Kawhi's health ahead of that.
Also talked about how good a team Raps are, and they've shown they're good enough to win games w/o Kawhi. They're a great team to join in terms of being able to win.
Who knows what Kawhi's really thinking, but there are a lot of good reasons to stay here. In terms of the weather.... I've gotta think Kawhi can always move to LA in another 5 years or so and live the rest of his life there. 5 (or whatever) years up here and a chance at another ring? That probably counts more than the weather....
