Report: Spurs looking to trade Leonard this summer

[SpursBig3s]

So even before all this bull shenanigans with his camp started last offseason, Sors were seriously not willing to offer the Supermax?? If true, I don’t agree with that

[BillMc]

So, the prevailing ST theory crurrently is that Spurs and KL have already had their meeting. That KL knows no Supermax is coming, and the game is over?

[BillMc]

So the spurs even in the offseason were unwilling to give Kawhi the supermax?? When he was allegedly healthy? That’s dumb... why??

Maybe ownership balked? Or maybe the Spurs hoped to convince him to take a regular max, so the team had more flexibility?

7.5 * 5 = 37.5 or not even close to the difference. Not to mention that I'm not sure he can go to another franchise that is a big market and still not have to pay state income tax.

Great point! Kawhi makes the most money if he were to stay with the Spurs. From the NBA.

However, say if he were to go to PHI (and win a championship there). He might get a 300milion deal from Nike, or at least that's what Kawhi might believe right now and/or told by his uncle or who-ever. And by the way, it was so convenient that it was a Sixers doctor that did not clear Kawhi to play.

Also, remember Stephen Jackson saying Kawhi wants to be like KD, Lebron "One of those guys"?

He [Kevin Durant] inked a 10-year extension with the sportswear giant in 2014 worth as much as $300 million, including royalties

On a side note, fellow math greek here.

Kawhitter is a cancer.

Honestly I wish this were over already. I'm at the point where I don't care where Kawhi ends up. If he is healthy and doesn't have some chronic issue great. If he's traded for a very good package of players and pick great. Just do it already.

They won’t do anything until at least the draft lottery happens. No one even knows the pick order yet. Boston coul end up with #2 or #3 overall if things break right.

Was thinking the same, they’ll probably ship him off to a team with the top pick

I thought it was, but I haven't watched it in years. I'll have to watch it again. The way this season has gone, it might be time to fire up a blunt (I don't normally smoke at all) and watch something like that.

Nah. Phoenix is a dumpster fire. They KNOW that Kawhi will bolt, and therefor won’t trade the pick.

[Dingle Barry]

Also despite small market Spurs have very marketable colors and jerseys. A LeBron and Kawhi dynamic duo they could brand that perfectly with silver and black everything. Warriors, Bulls, Thunder and Spurs have the most marketable jerseys in league imo.

Thunder? Worst duds in pro sports.

Makes sense until at least closer to free agency time. I don't see how any team especially the Sixers & Celtics (most likely trade targets) would even throw a package or talk about it with the Spurs yet. Right now they're probably getting silly offers from NY, Orlando, Milwaukee, etc...

My friend; teams are definitley making offers and feeling SA out. Probably every damn team except GS.

[cd98]

So let me know if I got this right...

1. Spurs doctors are saying that Kawhi has a degenerative injury that will get worse over time, but he is healthy enough to play.
2. Kawhi's doctor is saying that it is not degenerative and that Kawhi should rest it and it will completely recover.

Is that right? If so, it explains why the Spurs won't give Kawhi the max. It also explains why Kawhi has hard feelings about the Spurs and why he doesn't trust their doctors.

Maybe your right my only point was that Boston in the middle of their playoff run probably hasn't had the time to assess it yet since they are still in the playoffs. Secondly, Philly would want to see about Lebron before Kawhi. Imo these two teams are the only ones that make sense besides any kind of multi-team trade Getting clarification on this soon would be nice though.
