Post your ideal Kawhi offseason

[cool cat]

Tatum, brown and a pick. That’s easy. this dude. Do it, move on and don’t look back.

Yep, I think if Kawhi is available there will be a bidding war for him. If Boston wants another big name, which they were trying for last year and had to settle on Gordon, this would be there best chance to get one. They have already shown they will move talent to get a big name, make it happen RC!

Porzingis and the kicks first rounder.

Yeah. If isn’t coming back there’s a bunch of talent out there. I’m really really disappointed in this kid. He was supposed to be Spurs material. We were all fooled.

What makes u think he isn't? Because he is injured? Tony Parker is spurs material and he is an egotistical jerk who s teammates' wives... Imagine if Kawhi ed manu's wife... Ppl would crucify him... Imagine if he downplayed the success of his teammates... Kawhi is injured, and because he has a reclusive personality and isn't tweeting like LeBron, ppl think he doesn't wanna be here... The only issues I can see him having is with how Parker and Manu has been dealing with this... Very selfish tbh...

So you're calling stuff people out for people making assumptions about Kawhi, yet you're doing the exact same thing with Tony. There is nowhere that has said he slept with Brent Barry's wife. I'm pretty sure if he did, he wouldn't still be on the Spurs.

I am not thinking MANU called out KIWI, but i think TP was in his statement.

[tholdren]

Hopefully his career is over

[cd021]

Kawhi will sign contract and prove this whole thing was overblown

Yeah, by Kawhi.

[cd021]

Doesn't the Memphis pick have a ton of protection on it though?

I believe you are correct.

The only magic offer I would be interested in would be: top3 pick + Isaac + Hezonja (S&T) + Gordon

Haven't heard of an Magic trade proposal yet but;

Kawhi

for

5th pick, 35th pick, 41st pick, Gordon, and Issac's is at least a compe ve offer.

No immediate, proven replacement for Kawhi. With no guarantee that Rudy will be back, I think the Spurs have to look for an immediate contributor at the position. Might get it in free agency, but I'd rather see it as part of the deal.

I actually mentioned the Spurs doing a sign and trade that would mean Spurs sending Kawhi to Orlando for Gordon, Vucevic, and their lottery pick. The Spurs could also give them Gasol and Mills' disgusting contracts

[tholdren]

No max. Vet min, and spurs dont play him

I am confident that Rudy will be back next year so I wouldn't be super worried about getting a replacement 3 back for Kawhi in a trade or in FA.

Its possible but who knows, seems pretty likely he’s opting out and SA doesn’t have any bird rights.

For Magic that would be a lot for a one year rental. Leonard isn’t extending there.

[AFBlue]

And likely no room over the cap to pay beyond MLE right?

[DPG21920]

Really depends. SA could have some decent cap space depending on a few things or be operating over the cap with the MLE

[pad300]

If I understand it correctly as a guy who has had 1 year with the team, the team's non-bird rights allow them to offer him up to a 20% raise as an exception - which is to say something in the $10 Million region vs the $8.4 million of the MLE

[Seventyniner]

Its possible but who knows, seems pretty likely he’s opting out and SA doesn’t have any bird rights.

I think they have non-Bird rights and can re-sign him to 105% of this year's salary. But that's basically the same as him opting in, at least for next season only. I don't know how I would feel about giving him a 2 or 3 year contract.

[Seventyniner]

Keeping Kawhi almost certainly means operating above the cap. Trading him is a golden opportunity to get rid of bad contracts, so Gay opting out would actually help.

I think they can use “non-bird” rights to resign Rudy since he completed 1 year of service, so if they’re operating over the cap they’d still have the MLE.

[DPG21920]

Kawhi’s number is fixed next year regardless of any extension. SA, even with Kawhi back could definitely have cap space if TP is gone (or drastically reduced), Danny/Rudy opt out. Any trades as well open things up

[cd021]

Its possible but who knows, seems pretty likely he’s opting out and SA doesn’t have any bird rights.

They have non bird, meaning that they can sign him to a multi year deal starting at 105℅ of this year's salary, (8.8 million, IIRC)

[cd021]

I would make taking on Mills a requirement for any Kawhi trade, though I don't know if PAFTO sees it the same way. Gasol, would excell as a full-time backup big so I would keep him around for next season before stretching and waiving him and using the savings to get into FA
