You’ll have to ask Kawhi and his (outside medical) group that question,”
Popovich told reporters. “So far, they say that he’s not ready to go, so
we can’t do anything until that happens…and then we would have to decide
what’s going on from there. But that’s the first thing that has to happen.”
The follow-up question was key, as Popovich was asked if there was any value
in having Leonard on the bench with his teammates even if he’s not playing.
“Um, he’s rehabbing right now in New York, trying to get healthy,”
Popovich replied.
看起来是Kawhi团队有回报讯息，只是回报的答案是伤还没好不能上场。
Popovich 也知道他现在在纽约复健，所以没有出现在板凳。
