Scroll up, there's more random too like Lavine. It's become a tweets, nba offseason dump I guess

Kind of like a hurricane. It'll stall over warm water and just pick up all the surrounding moisture on it's way to a CAT 5.

This thread has stalled w/ KL news and is just picking up all the surrounding BS on its way to a CAT 1,000 pg thread.

Nothing is stopping it and everything in its path is ed.

This has become the nba offseason thread as well. Many pages where kawhi isn’t even mentioned

[Stabula]

I ask Satan for Kawhi to grow a bone in both quad tendons and be dealt to the Lakers for all their youth except Ball

Too many 2-guards, plus Dijon is not a true PG. Gotta hope White is. If so, I would actually like to see him paired with Marco in the SL. Marco's off-ball skill would mesh much more effectively with White than Murray.

Actually, there's not a single true SG among Mills, Fultz, Murray, White and only the latter can credibly play it on both sides of the ball.

That back court can work, so long as one of Mills or White is paired with one of Fultz or Murray at all times. Outside of Mills, the others can all cross match defensively.

There is a flaw in that logic of playing hardball with Kawhi and his group, in order to get him to say yes to considering re-signing with the 76ers- Leonard's credibility is shot, who's to say that even if he gives then that assurance that he would consider re-signing that he actually would. Maybe he would be so desperate not to return to S.A that he says whatever to get out and then bolts to L.A. in a year.

I don't see them offering up Fultz, and it sounds like they want to give him another season, so if there is a deal with Philly to be had, it seems that he isn't likely to be included.

An alternate theory is that the Spurs want to get him into training camp and see him there and in the pre-season before deciding to offer the super-max. If and only if he turns it down, then they will consider moving him.

while Kawhi's group has dug in and the thought of returning to S.A is so much of no-go that he puts external pressure on L.A. to make for him or else he'll threaten to consider signing elsewhere in the offseason out of spite (i.e. the Clippers).

Leonard doesn't actually have to consider re-signing with the 76ers, he just needs to convince them that he will. If he tells them that, even if they are skeptical, they'll still probably trust it because what else would they have to go on?

If they still wouldn't offer Fultz, then the Spurs shouldn't do a trade with them. We can debate the merits of trying to stay compe ive all we want, but the reality is, it's thought to be the Spurs intention. How are they supposed to do so without a single featured perimeter scorer or play maker? I'm not interested in tying up significant long term money in a bunch of role players.

I buy that alternate theory. Short of the Celtics, Lakers or 76ers blowing them away, I think that's always been the plan.

It has? LMA has been traded?

Ha.

[offset formation]

Ha.

You're not reassuring me.

[Payote75]

I don't even want to try to repair anything. I just want him gone and this over with so we can see where the Spurs roster is and begin to move forward. The only way this would workout by him coming back is if it turns out it was 90% media leaks and kawhi to show that, ditches his representation Spurs have already let Parker go ginobli probably too and he can put his stamp on the team and both organization and player get a fresh start. To be honest that scenario very unlikely so let's just move on. I'm so tired of this crap.

Spurs security advised him & his uncle to leave at a certain time, his uncle said otherwise, they got stuck in traffic and had to walk to the arena. I forgot which year it was, but Mike Wright said it in back2back podcast.

Uncle Dip didn't like being told what to do.

Ah that's right, can't believe I hadn't thought of that - ole Dennis the Menace has been a thorn for years now.
