    The Los Angeles Clippers are willing to create a trade package built around forward Tobias Harris and the 12th or 13th pick in this year’s draft to acquire San Antonio Spurs star Kawhi Leonard, according to a report from the Los Angeles Times.

    I saw 12 or 13.

    That's what I said. One pick and Harris.

    You forget that kawhi found a doctor to sign off on his inability to play. Would have been a whole cluster if the spurs tried to force him to play when he "couldn't" Simmons ed himself because rather than play 2 games and get "injured" he tried to muscle his way out from the beginning.
    Simmons did too with the mental health angle, didn't he?

    Jerry West tried to move up with the 12 and 13 to draft Doncic but was unable to so. So next option was

    That means Kawhi Leonard could be a more likely Clippers trade option.
    A move would have to come fast given the quick timetable, and it is unclear if the San Antonio Spurs would see two late-lottery picks as enough for a player of Leonard’s caliber.

    The problem here was the Spurs were not interested in making that trade.

    One rumor that also sprouted concerns the L.A. Clippers, who are reportedly making a concerted effort to woo the San Antonio Spurs into giving up embattled forward Kawhi Leonard for two of their first-round picks packaged with swingman Tobias Harris, per Marc Stein of The New York Times.

    League sources say the Clippers have been trying to lure the Spurs into Kawhi Leonard trade talks with an offer featuring their two lotto picks and Tobias Harris, but it appears they’ll be making the 12th and 13th pick for themselves — with Michael Porter Jr. still on the board.

    So like I said both offers were out there. The Clippers were getting desperate and then offered both picks on draft day and the Spurs still didn't want to make a trade.

    They weren't getting Bridges anyways since he went #10.

    I thought we were discussing the 12 and 13 picks for Leonard?

    Philly traded that 10th pick so The Spurs could have possibly made a play for Bridges if they wanted him in a deal for that 10th pick but they pulled nothing off in a trade on that draft day.

    No, we were discussing the 12 or 13 pick + Harris for Leonard.

    The offer then became 12 and 13 + Harris on draft day.

    Both offers were on the table at a time, Spurs were not interested in either.

    Not sure what you are arguing here. Raps don’t win that series if the Warriors don’t lose TWO future HOFers in the final/ but Pop’s move was banishing Leonard to Toronto, the front office relationships made it easier.
    Injuries happen every freaking year in the PO, last man standing. End of story, spurs traded KL to a contender for the best offer they tough they were getting at that time, be it or not.

    Now, if you think they traded him here independently of what they were getting, just because boo, boo, boo! Take this you villain!... This is a billion dollar league, not kindergarten.... Good luck explaining that to your owner(s).

    If he didn't spend the entire summer saying he wasn't going to play for them, then make a bad faith attempt at practice he might have something. The only reason he showed up to Philly and the bkn bench was because he wanted to use the boos as evidence of a hostile work environment. Kawhi did the same thing but rather then some bull psychology excuse he would have had an MD sign off on it.

    -/+ are overrated
    In isolation +\- can be misleading. To be the all-time most negative player to play in the playoffs probably means something.

    What do the closet Bulls fans have to say now about this result?

    No one likes to play the long game. It’s always about being a prisoner of the moment. No sight beyond the present situation. Folks were loud earlier in the season about how this fool’s gold team has a bright future. How there’s zero chance Lavine would leave this great team. Now injuries are the excuse that will be used over and over. out of here, dude.

    DDR ting the bed no surprise there but injuries were a contributing factor. Lonzo and Caruso make the DDR/Lavine combo much better in many ways.

    Also, Lavine still probably isn’t leaving though injuries, a playoff meltdown and sub max offer were stated on here by myself and others as the potential catalysts for him to leave.

    DeRozan should have probably kept them above the #6 seed then.

    If they didn't lose 3 of their 8 man rotation to injuries, he would have.

    Bridges is great and a big reason why Phoenix has the top record in the league. He's not a superstar franchise player you build around but he's better than what the spurs ended up with. He would be the best player on the Spurs now.
    Bridges is at best their #3 guy. We got DeRozan, who’s a #2 guy.

    Bridges is better. He'd still be with the Spurs.

    The mistake was trading for Derozan in the first place. Should have swallowed their pride and sent KL to the Lakers for Ingram and w/e else.. Demar is junk at the end of the day. This last season proves that point.
