If Kawhi would've been healthy, LaMarcus doesn't have the season he had.

If my aunt had balls, she'd be my uncle. What's your point?

Two thoughts:

1) Aldridge pitching the Spurs pretty much contradicts the "reputable" reports from a poster on this board that he wants out.

2) Dear God, please keep Jamal Crawford far, far, far away from this team.

[Phenomanul]

^^^ Is that considered tampering?

Edit: Though probably not as bad as calling Kevin Durant from the parking lot after a Game 7 NBA Finals loss.

but muh sauces

Yes.

[Phenomanul]

Also, Jamal Crawford even on one leg is better than Bryn Forbes...

Not that I would endorse his offseason acquisition by the Spurs

I don't think they give a crap when players do this kind of thing.

Sure doesn't sound like LA is unhappy with the Spurs tho.

I’m not sure you used “far” enough. He’s also boys with Murray, making it even more of an option. Ew.

Usually, but not always -- see, 2008, Elton Brand recruits Baron Davis to the Clippers then bolts to the Sixers as a FA (leaving Baron alone on Donald Sterling Island).

That was all behind the scenes, though.

I'd like to assume that, in this day and age, players understand that their tweets/grams/books/whatever the kids call them these days...are going out to a larger audience and coming straight from the horse's mouth.

Congrats to the Best Player On The San Antonio Spurs for his tremendous efforts on the court for the 2017-2018 season. Thanks so much for being there all season long.

Three Cheers for LA12, 2018 all-NBA

I’ve been pretty critical of LMA at times because it’s frustrating when you see a guy with that much talent not living up to his potential. But he beasted this year. Played through injuries and carried a pretty weak roster to the playoffs. Without LMA the Spurs were probably a 30 win squad this past season.

I guess the Spurs use this as leverage when he ultimately demands to be traded.

Yep

Jamal Crawford is the greatest 6th man of his generation. Would welcome him with open arms. We have 7 SG's on the team and not one of them is good.

I'd like to see Crawford sign with SA, even though I don't want him near the team either. It would likely be LMA and DJM recruiting him, and them snagging even one guy would be better than Kawhi has done.

Was just thinking the same about #1. Would seem odd for him to recruit to a place he wants out of. I put that tweet in that other thread before I saw this, so I wonder what kind of discussions it'll bring
