If that's true we can trade Bennett for Kawhi right?

No just no. Those guys don't fit in the Spurs mentality. You have to have the right mindset before San Antonio will even consider you.

Richard Jefferson - talented but low IQ prevented him from lasting very long in SA.
Drew Gooden - dumbest player to ever suit up for the Spurs.
Turkoglu - timid choke artist. Got better when he left SA and played in Orlando.
Dejuan Blair - Selfish player that didn't really care for the Spurs system. Always looking to score as soon as he got the ball instead of making the right pass. Never tried to learn any of Pop's defensive schemes. As a result, he spent his last year in SA rotting on the bench.
2013 SJax - very coachable back in 2003. Turned into a headache when he returned 10 years later. Jackson proving not everyone matures as they get older.
Players on the current squad:
DeColo - successful player in Europe but can't play worth a damn in Pop's system. Whines about his lack of playing time. Already decided he's headed back to Europe next year.
There's plenty of others too like Samaki Walker, Keith Bogans, Ron Mercer,etc.
Thats funny because he was Orlando's man down the clutch in their only long playoff run

This would be true if Jax had not won a ring with them in the past.

I agree with everything except the bolded. Jax just wanted more minutes to help the team win. You can't knock a guy for wanting to help his team win.
I think Pop regretted that decision after the Finals loss cause they could've really used Jax.

i wouldn't say thats true. id agree with what artillary said.
the system comes first, but im sure the spurs work very hard to find a special kind of player who has talent as well as the mentality that they prioritize.
