Would you guys do this if Kawhi wants out?
Fuck yeah
Hardaway has one of the worst contracts in the NBA(looking ahead) and he's already peaked as a player..Spurs would be trading a top 5 player in the world, can't be taking back horrible contracts..
I'd rather get a top 5 pick + a promising rookie(a team like Phoenix, for instance) over fragile Porzingis and a bad contract..
Getting Porzingis would be nice if they can't do any better, although he's one of the most overrated players in recent history.. he's the type of player Pop would like(his shade of skin, at least)..
Considering Porzingis' contract, we would have to take on a contract similar to Hardaway's, unless you'd rather get Courtney Lee, in which I wouldn't, tbh.Quote:

How about Devin Booker and Tyson Chandler for Kawhi?Quote:

No. Porzingis is a stud, but I fear he's going to be oft- injured, much like the complaints now about the guy we would be trading. There are much better trades than this.
I think Devin and another would be a possibility. Chandler is too old and isn't the defensive stopper he once was. Unless it included a 1st pick, too.Quote:

I have a feeling New York would be hell for him considering it's not a place you want to be if your an introvert.Quote:

Knicks would never
Don't you think LA would be just as difficult for an extreme introvert to handle?Quote:

If your an introvert in LA your going to be fine because no one is going to interact with you unless you make the effort. I live in Charlotte and have a friend whose from LA. I remember he once told me the difference among the people in Charlotte and LA is that if falls and trips on the street down here that people will come up to him to see if he's ok where as in LA no one would give a shit and act like he doesn't exist.Quote:

Send him to the Lakers for their first round pick, Brandon Ingram, and Josh Hart
Why would the Knicks do this? :lol
idk why people are acting like kawhi’s trade value is as high as it was when he was healthy.
Throw in Randle an take Hart, an this would sound great. Very desirable.Quote:

As always they are delusional. Kawhi is going to have to come back next season and be balling again. It’s not ok for him to have missed an entire season with a chronic injury. That still devalued him, probably more so than if he was acting up and being a locker room cancer.Quote:

offer Kawhi for Simmons and Embiid and see if Philly is still as dumb as they have been in the past.
Years ago I would have felt this way but as I got older and wiser, I see where the problem is at and that is in the front office. If we need to be mad at anyone it's Popovich and others for not adapting. Leonard is Duncan or Robinson. everyone isn't built like those guys to take orders and not ask questions. Everyone doesn't want to give a team discounts to win games. I sure as hell wouldn't and that's not being selfish, that's being smart.Quote:

The front office could have assembled the '92 dream team and Kawhi would still not want to be here. :lol Kawhi is damn mute he has never asked any questions and the spurs have never gotten him on a discount after his rookie contract.Quote:
