    You're underestimating the power of a big market. And even then, who says it's about the money? You're talking about a guy who drives around in a 90 something Tahoe because "it works and it's paid off". There's more to this than money.
    It's all about the money, bro. Especially for the unc and broke agent.

    lol at thinking he wants to leave only to be close to home

    Your mistake is that you think that frugal Kawhi is making the decisions. The vultures have descended from the sky. A desperate, sketchy former NFL agent, currently without an agency, paid his uncle a $1M 'development deal' to have access to and control over Kawhi's future. End of story.
    It's the nature of the game. All of these guys have their "group" tbh.

    I'm sure kawhi has his reasons for wanting out but I wouldn't put money at the top of the list.

    Nope. Not letting you get away with that. I wasnt arguing against him going home or any other reason for him in LA. In fact, you very specifically stated he would make up the "money".

    Nice try tho, tbh.

    Appreciate it.
    Of course I prefer/want him to come to Lakers if he is healthy... I may even want him over Lebron cuz he is younger.
    But if I take my bias out of it Boston has the best assets over Philly and Lakers.
    IF Kyrie is healthy Kyrie (doubtful) and Tatum would be a great haul and celts could build around Hayward and Kiwi.
    Everyone says Ainge wont budge on Tatum but that is EXACTLy why spurs should insist even at the cost of not getting both the sacto and memphis pick

    I Was Spurfan when shaq was traded. I screamed everywhere I could that we should have insisted on Wade (before wade ws great) because you should NEVER trade an established star WITHOUT getting their best young player on the other team. Picks alone are not enough. Everyone said riles would not include Wade but if had not Iwould not have traded them Shaq. I thought Brown and Tatum were closer ...but after the ECF the gap is further as Baseline said ...no Tatum, no Kiwi. PERIOD.

    I would rather watch a team full of up and coming players and not make the playoffs, over the we had this year with the old s and get bounced in first round, tbh.

    Saw this coming from a mile away tbh. I don't really care so much about what Kawhi was thinking, but I definitely knew what Spurs were thinking. Pop was pretty much as good as gone when Spurs FO decided to start cleaning house by having the assistant coaches interview with other teams. Spurs fans were in denial, but if you take a look at the facts, all signs were pointing to it.

    Here's to hoping Kawhi falling back to mediocrity once he goes to any other team. This will only make Pop look twice as good before he retires. Kawhi is a chump, and he was fronting all along since he joined the Spurs.

    Well know the ending of all of this by the draft. If we dont trade him by the draft then this will drag into trade deadline 2019

    At least he would be losing like 60 millions dollars, or whatever it is that he will lose if no team is able to sign him to a supermax.

    But, ok, I changed my tune. They can have Kawhi if they give us Ingram, Kuzma and a first round pick. Nothing less than that.
    That is a outrageously bad trade. Ingrim is a pretty polarizing prospect and Kuzma was a decent rookie, that doesn't make up a trade package. L.A would have to throw in the 25th pick plus a 2019 and 2021 pick to even be in consideration.

    Yeah, but usually they're controlling the group, not the other way around.

    I've been saying;

    Kawhi and Mills for Covington, Fultz, Saric, 10th pick, and Parsecniks but y'all didn't wanna listen.

    No no, you explain why kawhi is leaving.
    His feelers got hurt. If you'll recall, I was Team Kawhi until it became clear he went AWOL. Even then I tried to give him the benefit of the doubt.

    Dabom started a thread on who was still with Kawhi. Go read it to see my evolution on him. It's all there. Tbh, all you have to be able to do is understand even basic human psychology. He felt ambushed. But the team just wanted to know what the was going on. Their best player was barely playing and they didn't understand Kawhy. Plus Uncle Dennis has been in his ear about greener pastures. He's about to find out Uncle Dennis was in this more for himself than his nephew.

    Ok, your turn.

    My turn? Kawhi feels betrayed. That's not my opinion on the matter, that's Kawhi's truth. Whether we believe him or not is a personal choice.
