No, I get that. I'm just saying, IF there was ANY chance of Kawhi being healthy for the playoffs, I could justify spending assets for him. Maybe still not for the Mavericks, but in general. I still think he's the most impactful player who will change hands this summer, in theory.
But, in SEVEN years, he has been healthy for like 1-3 playoff series, TOTAL.
LeBron, on the other hand, has been a marvel of modern science with his availability, relatively speaking.
