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

[dbreiden83080]

Coulld be. But the rumors about Spurs' doctors misdiagnosis started before.

From what I can tell his idea of a misdiagnosis is that he was still in pain. Welcome to the world of being a pro athlete. Duncan played with bad feet, bad knees, you name it. Suck it up..

[dbreiden83080]

How is that not a big trade? I’m sure there would be more moving parts as well..

Lonzo may be pretty good eventually but nobody wants to adopt his A-Hole Father..

[YGWHI]

It could just be a precursor to a kawhi deal. Ball to PHX for picks which LA would then flip to us..
:tu
Rumors say that LA was looking to trade some of their guys for top picks to offer the Spurs.

Too much fun this offseason. Can't wait to see how the cards will fall...

Not to mention an injury without surgery, yet leading to missing 73 games.

I've said it's a player's right not playing if he's not 100% healthy.

You think otherwise...I'm fine with that.

The Clippers have nothing to offer since they whiffed hard on their two lottery picks :lol

[gilmor]

Maybe, maybe not. After knowing what happened to the Spurs, I think his next coach/teammates would be very careful about the way they treat him if they want him to stay after 1 year rental.

Who gives a fuck about cafeful around a pussy.

Leonard composure is done..

What's their offer? Bend over RC?

For a whole season? At 19 mil. Now he wants like 30 mil a year to fight with doctors and not play. Someone else can have him..

[Spurs da champs]

I just don't understand why they'd now deal with the Clippers when they should've taken the draft day deal.

Agreed. This is going to be interesting. I’m a huge Kawhi fan (or was) and I think him requesting a trade is a blessing in disguise for the Spurs. Let’s face it, this current team with kawhi isn’t going anywhere. We have a chance to come away with a franchise altering trade that could set us up for a rapid rebuild a la the Celtics. We have to get this right. This is our chance to keep our playoff streak alive for another 20 years. I’m trusting in PATFO..

[YGWHI]

The Clippers have nothing to offer since they whiffed hard on their two lottery picks :lol

Without those picks, I can't imagine what was their offer...

If that Philly combo-offer was true or that Lakers offer with Ingram and picks...They look a lot better than what the Clips can offer

The clippers are probably desperate for DeAndre to opt in and want to show they have a chance, smart move if it comes to fruition

[MoSpur02]

If the trade is for Tobias Harris I'm going to cry. He isn't a top 20 player in my opinion.

I guess C's didn't have a "rapid" rebuilding but agree with you on the many opportunities this trade gives...

So far all of the offers have been buy low attempts.

No need to make a deal, getting stuck with dogshit instead of nothing hardly constitutes a win.

[Hoops Czar]

Guys and SAGirl, I don't know if this is good new or bad news on the Kawhi front, but here goes....


This thread needs a glimmer of hope. Within the last hour, through connection to a clothing brand that LeBron has stake in, heard that he intends to stay with Cavs on a max deal. Info supposedly coming straight from LBJ's camp in the Carribbean. Same source nailed the 2010 and 2014 decisions FYI.

If only the lakers would have taken Jayson Tatum over Ball! Why?!?!? If the lakers would have drafted better of late we could’ve got a kings ransom because we have LA by the nuts. I just don’t think PATFO is that enamored with LA’s assets. I wish Boston was as desperate as LA - they are the ones that have the appealing assets.

They cleared him to play, they could have forced the issue but let him skulk away to get other side of the country to get foam rolled while he sobbed into a towel

You’re kidding right? Spurs were at WCF last year and Kawhi got injured. It’s too bad that Kawhi requested a trade and orchestrated this whole thing, but now FO is trying to salvage the pieces and not be mediocre, but not better than if all these drama did not happen.

They've got a young core on cheap contracts. Good upcoming picks and no guarantee he would resign with them.

[weebo]

Parker playing like shit all season just made Kawhi's point.

A quad injury is enough serious to be extremely cautious and not playing until full recovery.

Who would blame Kawhi because he didn't want to risk his body and end like Parker.

Wow, you still don't get it. Parker is not the franchise player. This team wasn't built for Parker. This is Kawhi's team...HIS team. Get that? They busted their ass all year to make the POs and he left them hanging because he couldn't or wouldn't communicate with the team. It's one thing to be pissed off at management and another to turn your back on YOUR team. All this bullshit coming out of Kawhi's camp about how he felt betrayed is just bullshit. He or his camp wanted him out of SA-- they just they just picked the wrong way to go about it and now its snowballed into all of this.

I’d take Kyrie straight up for kawhi. As long as he’d sign an extension with us which is probably unlikely.

I would be happy if Kawhi goes to Clippers just for the opportunity to taste Lakers tears

[YGWHI]

They're saying we're losing a top 3 player for a top 20 player..I need to know who's that player because it doesn't seem like the Spurs are winning this trade.

Probably not.
The fact they haven't been involved may be helpful as they are not rushing into things

My point is, we’re not getting past GS. We’ll spend the next 5 years going to the playoffs and having no chance of beating them and by then we’ll be old and in need of a major rebuild. Let’s get the rebuild in motion now so that 5 years from now we’ll be the young team that knocks GS off.

Ingram ceiling is higher than Booker. While he's not the next KD like media said two years ago, there is no doubt he'll be a top player.

[jimbo]

:lol Spurs gonna get fucked. Should have just traded with the Clippers when we had the chance. With no Boston leverage the offers are going to fall through the toilet. I can see Philly being dumb enough to still offer a load, but Kawhi'll tell them he won't resign with them and they'll pull out too.

:lol at the GNSF thinking we were gonna get a haul for him in the first place. He's coming off a year of purposefully not playing. Disgruntled. Only one year on his contract left. OKC gambling on Paul George has better odds of paying off than Kawhi on any non-LA team.

[spurraider21]

[tbdog]

Harris gives you a player that can help the Spurs win now and continue their tradition of making a trip to the postseason. I have zero doubts the Spurs FO would also find gems at #12 and 13. It’s far better than Ingram.


Harris hasn't made any team win. He has played 4 playoff games his career. He is Jefferson. Worst than Jefferson.

[Mugen]

If Paul George stays in OKC despite being from LA and trying to bully his way there ... That could get the offers coming in as teams won't be as scared.

Bingo. The only way the Spurs fuck this up is panic move and do something before July 1st.

-PG stays in OKC after every single Laker fan considered him a lock would encourage so many GMs to risk and trade for Kawhi
-PG signs with LA means that LeBron is probably coming meaning it'd be near impossible for the Lakers to get Kawhi outside of a lopsided trade.

Pop and RC have to know this. The only way they fuck up is panic and cuck themselves into something stupid.

Players get injured. Kawhi got injured and his uncle used it to get him off a team and into a bigger market. Bottom line:

Disagree. If yall bring Kiwi to camp, that's not good (bad for team chemistry, etc). I've already explained why Boston won't offer Tatum (or any other significant players) to trump an LA offer.

The time for RC to get even close to market value for Kiwi is now. If he ignores rational thought and keeps Kiwi until the trade deadline, GMs will pull out a spiked 14-incher on his ass. Unless yall really wanna see him walk for nothing next summer. Ask the Lakers how it feels 5 years (and counting) of not making the playoffs. IJS

My nig, you already know that I like you but don't respect your garbage basketball takes whatsoever. :lol

This was your take on Mozgov in 2016




He won't command touches, he'll rebound, he'll block shots, he'll set picks. Frankly, $16M per isn't that bad given today's NBA salaries that are being doled out. And for better or for worse, big men usually get paid.

Nah, not really. He hasn't played that much the last few years. Plus 30 isn't old for a big man. He's still in his prime.

Disagree. If yall bring Kiwi to camp, that's not good (bad for team chemistry, etc). I've already explained why Boston won't offer Tatum (or any other significant players) to trump an LA offer.

Who's talking about Camp? LeBron will lose interest in about a week. PG won't want to be "the guy", a task that is especially difficult in your home town. He'll stay in OKC. The offers improve immediately, since PG also tried to force his way to the LAL, and then backed out for the money. Philly will come correct, and the deal will be done some time late in July or August.

Endorsements?

KL has the personality of a rock. Social anxiety disorder is also on the menu.

I just would like the NBA to fine the franchise or franchises tapering with Leonard and award their draft picks to SA. Just a pipe dream I know.

Fines never work. If you want to punish franchises for tampering then give them a harsh punishment such as taking away 5 first round picks from them.

And you think people wouldn't have believed him had he been more upfront about things? All year long all you kept hearing from teammates is that they really haven't seen or heard from Kawhi, Pop telling the media to ask his "group" and on and on...Why would they be saying all these things?

My prediction is he's going to the 76ers. We'll end up with Saric, Covington and a pick. Maybe Fultz but not likely with all the guards we already have on the roster. Maybe a couple other filler pieces like Korkmanz (who I really like! ) and rights to Milutinov.

I think you rolled that joke out yesterday, too, Jabari.
Just because I'm approaching this Kawhi's issue since a completely different perspective than you, doesn't mean I have to be other guy.

[lmbebo]

Bucher made a solid case for it not being Boston. Ainge will make low ball offers, but nothing more serious. He was talking about how Hayward made up his mind about leaving Utah when they didn't extend him an offer, still harbors a grudge over it. Maybe same could be said about Kawhi and his family/camp for his extension.

But Bucher said there are a lot of questions about who you are getting with Kawhi/aka representation/baggage. His mental fragility, being injury prone, etc. Said boston came close to finals this year without Kyrie or Hayward, why give up young cheap pieces for another injury prone player?

[exstatic]

My prediction is he's going to the 76ers. We'll end up with Saric, Covington and a pick. Maybe Fultz but not likely with all the guards we already have on the roster. Maybe a couple other filler pieces like Korkmanz (who I really like! ) and rights to Milutinov.

I agree that Philly is the most likely spot. Fultz wouldn't be a problem, long term. If you have too many of anything, you let it sort out, and move the excess for other assets.
