They couldn't.
Why didn’t the Lakers add Julius Randle to the trade package to get Kawhi instead of renouncing him?
I think the Spurs would have taken a package of
Julius Randle
Brandon Ingram
Kyle Kuzman
Josh Hart
1st rd pick
We immediately trade Brandon Ingram for a first round pick to a team that will end up in the lottery next year.
We could have had three first round picks , ours , the Lakers and whom ever we trade Ingram to.
Hopefully Boston comes through
Do you agree?
They couldn't.
1) Lakers are still saying Ingram and Kuzma are off the table.
2) Lakers 1st rd pick is going to be damn near worthless.
3) Randle would have to actually agree to a S&T to go to San Antonio, and who wants to jump on this sinking ship right now?
I think the Rondo acquisition is just another way to entice DeMarcus Cousins to sign with the Lakers.
Lakers have LBJ they don't have to trade Ingram and Kuzma anymore and if I was them I wouldn't. Pop was to stubborn the time to trade Kawhi for any decent return with Lakers has expired. Spurs should trade Kawhi East if he signs with Lakers next season it's not our problem.
Becauae Kuzma was off the table already, among other reasons.
Lakers deals are dead tbh
Exactly im afraid any deals for kawahi at this point are getting worse and worse.la can play this year out knowing kawhi will come next season and if not theyll figure something out
Clearly they gave up on a trade so they got those 1 year deals. Theyll wait for kawhi next year
As everyone talks about LeBron and all the Lakers moves, OKC and Presti sign Nerlens Noel for the minimum. How does that happen?
Call me spiteful but I'm totally content at this point to make Leonard stew in his own for another season, even if we get nothing for him.
if theres another team who want him thats where im trading him even for less... spurs will be ok
Exactly. Why trade him for anything when you can offer whar you want to who you want next year. Trading kl is the media bs to keep you intact with nba all summer since there is nothing to do. FO should not trade unless it is for a target player that they have had sights on before the drama or another team offers crazy stuff under pressure. Keep him. Make him play. Get his value high for market or trade value at halfway point
Might as well have him play out the final year of his contract and let him walk. It's not like the Spurs will get anything significant for him now. If that Lakers deal was on the table and Pop and RC didn't do it well it's to late Lakers have LeBron now and will hold onto those young players.
I don't know what the spurs did to kawhi but this er is bent on screwing sa in every way possible
Randle didn't want San Antonio or Buford didn't want Randle; probably both. The Lakers would have loved to include Randle in a trade for Leonard since they weren't bringing him back.
I agree. There aren't going to be any good offers most likely.
More like Spurs trade fumble...
Today makes it even more interesting going forward IMO..
There's no way Kawhi is sitting another year, it's a waste of his athletic prime and he won't be able to play the injury card again..
Anyone wondering if Kobe is thinking of coming out of retirement now that Lakers have inked LBJ.
Spurs are screwed now. They should've traded Kawhi when they had the chance. Now, the Lakers are going to just wait it out a year and get Kawhi without even having to trade their young guys.
This team is ed. They should have never put so much trust in that ing mute weirdo. This team is going to be bad to mediocre for years to come.
Tissot
I said yesterday Kobe would be at their practices to mentor the young thunder cats... and Lavar will be there too, and hilarity will ensue. Lebron signed up for a reality TV show. He went from being legit GOAT to just a scapegoat.
More like Fakers no get Kawhi, Bron waste one his remaining yrs as elite player. Poor old Fakers. Lol.
Thats cute in all for this coming season but it’ll be forgotten when/if he signs with the Lakers and the Spurs get nothing (next year)...
