There is nothing to leak... Kawhi has a chronic calf injury and will always only be able able and willing to play 50 +/- games per year for the remainder of his career. Will never play 2nd game of back to backs.

Rose already split the sheets. 99% chance to remain in Canada. Said it out loud on ESPN.

50 games is a stretch. Maybe for the next 2 years 50 games. That post-30 decline will hit this man very hard.

indeed. While there is still a chance he signs with the lakers, he would be pretty stupid to do so. In order for the lakers to make the playoffs with their current roster outlook, he'd have to play 40 minutes per game each game. That's simply outrageous for a player with his problems. Why would he put himself into such a situation when he can coast through the regular season with a stacked team and show up in the playoffs...
it's also slightly worse than it looks because teams are bound to adopt a maximum pace approach against the lakers.

But, before all that he rang up North. Don't worry though Pop never got accosted for it. Never any of (those) stories lodging blame for running the lad off. Oh, no, your precious Pop can never stand the gaffe nor face any music, be it Florida, or Leonard. Just the sound of silence.

The Fumble with some fairly attractive host foisting out her busts as enticement while spouting you to watch the YouTube trailer "
Kawhi Leonard To The Lakers LEAKED As He Asked ONE Question To Magic Johnson!"

Twas all Laker Marketing bullshit.

Look at Mult:::feelin' his oats of a Independence Day. You can breath again. & yet that knot, not the one twixt your ears, but, the one deep in your fat gut. Unlike your balloon knot that falls open at the drop of trousers that knot in your stomach will never loosen. You lost your 6th not quite as catastrophic as your 5th but you lost it nonetheless. Leonard & Canada v. State is better than Leonard & Spurs v. State? Please.

You'd have 6 on this 4th & I'd be barricaded in that RR, transom nailed shut.

Leonard

Let me guess. He (his uncle) wants a 1hr Sportscenter special on His Decision

You overplayed your hand with the lad. Thought you couldn't be hurt, that you were invincible. Even after Florida when the girl laid her hands on you. What'd you do in response? Got tough when he stepped out of line. Brazened it out after you'd been taught in Florida the calamity of that strategy:::"Just let her go, Tim, please. Clear the screen."

Nope not you:::"Hold on for dear life, Tim, till July, then take your vengeance."

Your compact with Media is a severe 2 edged sword. You're organically ignorant & you've paid a dear price, not once, but, now twice.

& you're gonna cast me down? You're out of your fuckin' mind.

Florida
Leonard

Stale,
Not sure why you are stuck in Florida.
I'm talking about current event of Lakers recruiting Kwa. Resulting media spin.

Could a 1 ton with plenty of cable leverage you out of the mud?

Because it's big time & it's handy.

I talk kwa recruitment, no problem. I'm prepping myself for what looks like a decimating failure in that regard. Hell, I felt good about it, genuinely so. But, 99% chance he ain't comin'. Back to the shitter. James will brazen it out till November, then if it don't work out by late November he'll shit where we eat, start talking about his pending contract materiel.

& Davis, he'll be the lost soul who will wander about trying to find contentment outside the millions in his banks.

& your Pop will retain his pound of Lakers flesh. He kept him from us via that trade & it looks like it'll hold.

Total loss.

That's not what he said. He said 99% of what he's hearing is that Kawhi will remain in Canada on a 2 year deal.

That's splitting hairs, D.

(You) won, Pop got his way, his intent was to bar us from Leonard. He succeeded-the fuckin' ogre. Christ, what'd we ever do to him, seriously? Just got a hard on for us & won't let go.

Crapon Butler has said 99% to the Lakers, so we'll see who's right I suppose. I'd laugh if he chose the Clippers considering they've essentially been ruled out.

[MultiTroll]

Total loss.
I don't wanna go Pollyanna on you but I wouldn't give 99% heed to the gossipy media bois.
Hold out a sliver of hope for a day or two more.

If anyone kept track, would like to see record of previous big name FAs and where media gossipers pounded the table and said they were going.

Wasn't Kwa to the Lakers a done deal 14 months ago? :lol

Hope you're right. Otherwise we're fucked. & poor Davis, lol, he has no idea how fucked up it can get there when it's like this.

Regardless, that fuckin' Dudley is going to have the time of his life for the entire year. He'll do remotes back here to 98.7 where his hook-ups are. I can't wait to listen & drive myself crazed.

---------

I figure 7AM my time 10AM on the East Coast tomorrow. He can't go today with the shit in D.C., and the quakes in California.
If he announces from Canada we're fucked. If he flies into New York we're safe.

I'm just going to rise at 7AM, take a leak, get my mop, mop the bathroom floor. Put the mop back in my yellow squeeze bucket, cinch up my robe-tight, sit down in here & press the ESPN button.

That was before your Pop put us in a pile driver & drove us head first straight into the mat. We've been staggering around ever since.

I figure if he comes, we'll immediately sign J.R., & that other idiot Anthony. If he goes to Canada we'll immediately sign J.R., & that other idiot Anthony.

Spurs, Lakers, and the NBA all suck tbh. Hell Trump got in the White House and then the Larry O`Brien trophy got lost to Canada.

NFL is the GOAT sport tbh.

It's a very important distinction. Without knowing anything about KL's camp or mindset, you can give any percentage you want and not have to stand by it as long as you caveat with "99% of what I'm hearing" instead of "I am hearing there's a 99% chance".

Christ Dale, that mental lapse by JR in the Finals last year. Unreal. For him it wasn't a lapse, but for the team it was. How do you not know the situation in that game, the coach?

I know, but, most important for me was Smith's response...100% honest. No jiving about, no self preserving, no game face, no brazening it out. That was impressive.

You're right. I can't think straight.

Kawhi and his team just dragging this out so when it comes time he sign with the lakers, the camp can say “see, we thought about it hard and the only reason we asked to be traded from the spurs is because how portly I was treated. We thought long and hard and felt that the lakers with the history and tradition is a great team to join. Kawhi grew up dreaming of playing for the lakers and this is his chance.” then uncle Dennis retreats to his VP of player development post with the lakers.

Did the Lakers end up giving far more for AD then Fagic and Perlinka offered for Kwa?

Everyone is so impatient with this. People don’t seem to remember that LeBron waited until July 8 in 2010 to make his decision.

[endrity]

So now we know why it was so secretive. Not because Kawhi is a mummy who doesn't like to talk; last year's discontent with the Spurs was made public early and often.

He wanted a second star and didn't want other teams to know and maybe get in the action and ruin his plans.

Well played Kawhi, well played.
