Exactly, it gets other teams to up an offer. I much perfer a trade getting Derozen + other pieces over that Tobias trade some were talking about before the draft.
I don't like it. Kawhi is a much better player than DeMar DeRozan, but apparently they (Spurs front office) tried to get Boston to work a deal and other teams were interested, but didn't want to give up any players of worth.

People are saying he deletes all of his IG posts every year.
Uncle Dennis would probably nix that though...
"Kawhi can't speak Canadian, FOH!"
Now I can’t say my sauces name (obviously) but I can direct y’all to the hidden website where all gm’s communicate and discuss trades. It is there that you will know exactly what is going to happen not only to the spurs but for every other team. All you must do is check it out and you too can be informed with sauces. The link is as followed... www.spurstalk.com
Spurs could turn OG into Kawhi lite?
OMG... I thought you were BS'ing, but after checking it out... you were right!
Could Kawhi pull something where they try to disrupt this trade or keep it from happening? I wouldn't put it past his uncle.
Not funny, but I![]()
Kawhi's a good fit for the Raptors..the media here doesn't care much, especially since the Leafs are good again, he won't be under any pressure to perform and everybody will be happy just to have him..
I still love the he’s on a plane update.
I MUST STRESS THE IMPORTANCE OF IF SOMEONE ASK YOU WHERE YOU GOT THIS LINK FROM YOU DONT TELL THEM IT CAME FROM ME!!!! please.
Look, DeRozan isn’t a great player, but he’s not trash. He’s not like a Melo currently is. He has some value even if I hate his game.
SA, in the lense of staying as competive as possible, getting DeRozan makes sense. SA would be a third seed and might have beaten GS (sans Curry) with DeRozan.
But I will only be ok with it if they get two other younger assets with it. If they get DeRozan to stay compe ive, fine, but they need to get younger players with upside like OG.
It’s not good at all and it’s a massive downgrade from Kawhi, but SA might be screwed here. I think around the league DeRozan has some value and maybe he can be flipped for something solid.
So think of it like trading Kawhi for OG/Siakam and maybe a pick + whatever assets they can get for DeRozan? Not great but if they can get a high upside draft pick for DeRozan and another player? Might not be an awful haul.
But I expect they would want DeRozanso this is all moot.
SA will for sure be a playoff team with DeRozan and it looks like that is SA’s goal vs rebuilding and getting youth.
Where is all this Raptors talk coming from? There's only been one tweet about it iirc. Did I miss something?
Apparently, the fact that Derozan recently cleared his IG. So...nothing.
I'll believe it when I see it.
Why are we talking about DeRozan so much?
DeRozan is a playoff CHOKER, jesus christ, I live in Toronto see just about every Raptor game possible. Come playoff time if DeMar isn't soring he is WORTHLESS. Brings absolutely nothing to the table, got benched in crucial fourth wuarters in the playoffs because he was a selfish liability. He's like a far more expensive Rudy Gay with crappier defense.
No thanks to DeMar, I'd honestly rather let Kawhi walk for nothing than take on DeMar's albatross of a contract.
It's one of many done deals. PATFO are genius, they have manged to trade KL to multiple teams at the same time.
he's under contract for 2 seasons. unlikely he'd exercise his player option
Shows you how desperate we are for something to happen.![]()
DeRozan is a three point shot away from being top 10. If Chip could fix his three point shot, then he could make many forget about KL and he is only one year older. He definitely fits the win now scenario. The Spurs still need a bench center which Poltl could easily become and even move to being a starter. Siakam would also be a solid reserve.
About to be in Toronto on Monday. Any cool/nice places you can recommend?
