Young: sources tell @ExpressNews that Kawhi Leonard wants to be traded from Spurs

[loveforthegame]

Well, it's probably the realization that you have a top 3 player in the world and if you want to get anything close to value for him, then you have to try and repair a relationship that will either allow him to dump his representation and get on the right page or cooperate with his public comments and actions so you can trade him for value. His side has been leaking garbage for weeks about he only wants LA and he won't sign with anyone else. They've been doing everything to weaken Kawhi's trade value and force him out of town. It's about time the Spurs redirected some heat at an agency group that thinks it's working in the NFL and holding a player out of training camp is an option.

I get airing dirty laundry but it seems smarter to do it after he’s traded imo. Frankly, I’m stunned the Spurs covered it up instead of going to the league and forcing some sort of mediation. Hindsight, I guess, but they might have been able to nip this in the bud before it ballooned into what it is right now.

Because they don't care about getting equal value, or really anything at all. They are not going to be played by amateur hour "Impact Sports."

You telling me they don't care what future stars think? If I'm a star, and even though Texas has no state taxes, I'd think twice about going there until Pop retires tbh.

The classy thing to do is to take the high road. Instead PATFO kicking him in the family jewels

[RD2191]

PATFO just needs to move him or shut down the trade talks. All this speculation is annoying as . They're not going to get the package that they want so I'm not sure what they're waiting for. The offers are only getting worse by the day with all of these leaks.

[MoSpur02]

Something is probably happening soon since he leaked the info.

[Mugen]

- hey man, I passed 7th grade on my 3rd try. Cut me some slack Holmes

Probably copied off the Indian kid in front of you, god bless mi amigo

[SpursDynasty85]

That's insane.

Wright also said that Kawhi is about "to get out of there, at least I think."

Please get this off the team.

I think that was Tom Haberstroh's take.

[Clipper Nation]

I'm also a member of LG (for over a decade).

Judging from your takes, it shows.

[DPG21920]

I mean, this has to be one of the craziest stories in NBA history right?

Did anyone listen to the entire thing and can give a summary?

[Leetonidas]

Apa is trolling you all how is this not obvious by now tbh

Yup. See you at the Team USA practices chump.
Bet he pusses out hardcore. He's proving himself to be the ultra beta he's showing out to be.

He'll show up and his reps will throw a sheet over him so nobody can see him so he "feels more comfortable that way".
"Woooo-ooooo I'm Kawhi-ghost! I'm not Kawhi! Wooooo-oooooo..."

Kid's always trolling. No point in ever responding to the spud.

[daslicer]

that. Force this into retirement for a(nother) year. I don't want anything back. Seeing this piece of throw his career away is so much better a return.

This. He destroyed the Spurs chances to be a championship contender for a long time. Might as well him over and try to destroy him.

[exstatic]

I wonder if his sister is getting him this info. His sister and mom have always seemed pro-Spursish. I wonder if that's what it's gonna take for him to realize what kind of he's in and off Uncle Dennis.

His mom was on the agency payroll for years, per the Brian Elfus suit.

Uncle Dennis is worst than we all thought....

I have a feeling I may need to get my Boban avatar back

[K...]

It's a done deal, he'll be a clipper, the spurs are holding it up and conducting a leak investigation. My sources say they put a hit out on an eric cisneros but are still hunting other conspirators especially an alleged philipono master leaker.

Leonard is building mom 3 million house in sa

This new NY info tells me one thing: the Spurs are done. There will be no reconciliation. This info could only have come from them. They either have something lined up or they will make him report, and they’ll ride it out, and either force more teams onto his trade list, or get some monetary revenge by keeping him and making him a FA at the end of the year, able to sign for no more than 4/$139M.

[spurraider21]

This is just insane, it's like a terribly written episode of Ballers or Entourage tbh.

i wouldn't mind if we had an Ari Gold equivalent

Yeah, but leaking this only further damages his value.
They're either not leaking, or going scorched Earth on him.

I think they should just keep his ass put and make him face Pop. At Team USA, at training camp, during the season until he can't take it no mo', or gives in.
Or he can go full and just sit. That will hurt him and his mama's and his uncle's and his Mickey Mouse agency's pocket book.

Reap what you sow punks.

This wasn’t leaked recently by the Spurs....

It was responsible journalism by Michael C Wright telling the truth..

Thid was just the tip of the ice burg according to crazy stories or demands made from Uncle D..

This was more a a shot at him to an extent towards Kawhi...

Wight is sticking up for the Spurs, but who wants to trade high end players for this kind of crazy. It hurts the Spurs as much as it explains their side.
