Doc Rivers shared with the media that "After Kawhi signed, we had the meeting and Ballmer walks in punching the air and making sounds and Kawhi leans over and says 'That man has too much energy’." Kawhi Leonard and Clippers owner Steve Ballmer are the exact opposite. Steve Ballmer is a great owner. He brings awesome vibes and amazing energy to his franchise. Clippers are very lucky. What a rare occasion to see Kawhi Leonard smiling (Literally the Fun Guy Kawhi Mode is activated, this is due to the NBA Season not yet starting, and when it starts, The Claw would be so serious.). Steve has literally made big makes for the Clippers recently, for the upcoming they are the heavy favorites to win the NBA title with Kawhi Leonard and Paul George signing with the team. Not to mention they have a young promising center which is Zubac (hopefully he is not traded since my gut feeling says he is still a Clipper as of today). Kawhi is a coachable guy and undisputedly the number 1 two-way player in the league right now. What I like about Kawhi is his defense and calmness, like we rarely see this guy smiling for which he always seems to be serious but deep inside he is just calm. Nonetheless, credit is due for Ballmer for being such an amazing team owner who gets along with players and not to mention he was able to make Kawhi smile. That’s an amazing bond that is going to improved and be tight once time passes.
