What insult to leonard
Sure, I'd throw in Manu too if they want him.
Dirk isn't a great fit for the Spurs. Defensively, Duncan and Dirk are too slow footed to guard a smaller player after the P&R switch, they are also slow to guard PF's. Chandler and Splitter/Diaw were the right complementary players for them.
Also, Kawhi is perhaps better at this point. So the trade wouldn't make sense. Let's hope Pop saw the light when no one could stop Kawhi when he drove in the finals. He should have some plays called for him.
I can't believe any Spurs fan would think this is a good idea. Leonard will be better than Dirk next year, bookmark that.
no brainer
And what's with that stupid gringo kid pointing his damn finger? Sad, tbh. Looks like a total t00l. So does the guy on the right and the darker one next to Kawhi just looks weird, tbh.
Some questions don't deserve an answer. This one would qualify as such.

What you've just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.

Kawhi isn't better than Dirk, I don't know what you lot are smoking. You'd just be throwing away the future for one last shot. Decent idea imo, then just start the tanking + rebuilding process
21 year old Kawhi is more valuable, particularly to the Spurs than 35 year old Dirk without a doubt. Dirk's last 2 seasons have been a clear drop off following his championship season, and Dirk's never been a good defender anyhow. Small forward is the premier position of the NBA right now. Without a top-tier small forward (either in defense or all-around play), you can't field a championship-contending team
3 years ago, I'd do Dirk-for-Kawhi in a heartbeat. Now, after Kawhi's incredible finals performance, it's not even clear anymore that Dirk is a better player than Kawhi, period.
Stupid question, Kawhi plays on both ends
And yes, I just pulled a LeBron on jimbo.
If you can't beat them, join them. :)
All right. Since almost no one thinks this is a good thought-trade (myself included), let's change the subject a little bit: Who on the team would be worth trading for Dirk. Let's ignore salary for now and any other practical barrier to the trades and just focus on the players.
Would you trade Splitter for Dirk? Green for Dirk? Ginobili? Diaw? I think most of use would trade the non-rotation players, so just leave them out.
These type of threads are great for the jpegs and gifs :tu
