That's fair. I was trying to avoid the actual merits of the idea and instead try to gauge if Kawhi, the player only, is worth it still. 

I also would not do it. It's just silly contract wise.

But is Kawhi the player still worth all of his headaches and injuries?

Short answer is no, he's not worth the headaches and injuries because you can't depend on him. Hit talent is undeniable and out of this world on both ends. If he can't play when it matters, it isn't worth it imo.
