Kawhi Leonard was too busy getting swole to celebrate with the Larry O'Brien Trophy

Despite winning an NBA championship and the NBA Finals MVP, rising San Antonio Spurs star apparently didn't leave himself any downtime in the offseason schedule.

While Tony Parker stole the Larry O'Brien Trophy immediately after the team's Game 5 win, it quickly made it's way to Leonard for his three days of celebration. Fitting perfectly with Leonard's character, he opted not to do anything of note during that time.

"I didn't have any time to do anything with it," Leonard told U-T San Diego. "My workout schedule is crazy."

If you were going to guess that any Spur didn't celebrate during their time with the hardware, you'd guess Leonard 100 times out of 100, right? Trophies might impress, but Leonard clearly know that it's curls that get the girls, so gym time can't be sacrificed. That, or he's just not a very celebratory person.

"I'm just a low-key guy," he continued. "I'm just happy we won it. I don't even care about the trophy. The title matters the most."

Sure, that's a good attitude to have, but there's also nothing wrong with enjoying yourself a little bit after an eight-month quest is completed.
