Skip spent all of last NBA season/playoffs destroying Kawhi Leonard (primarily because his main target LeBron (and Shannon’s fav) was not relevant from January to June). As soon as Kawhi signed with the Clippers, he walked into the studio wearing a Kawhi Clippers jersey and began praising him in comparison to LeBron (ignoring his ridiculous criticisms for the past year). They knew they needed to capitalize on the LeBron/Kawhi rivalry on their show for the year so they completely reversed course overnight.
It’s all an act and it’s all for show. Keeping him well paid, though.
