Young: sources tell @ExpressNews that Kawhi Leonard wants to be traded from Spurs

[marinoman]

So Portland is interested in trading for kawhi according to the espn article but cj and lilard are off the table

[MoSpur02]

Hear anything about potential package? OG Anouby? involved?

I don't know anything about what players are coming back. Just heard Kawhi and possibly Green going. I really hope not though. I think Green's a good player to keep unless they are getting OG in return

[dabom]

You can't trust any reports on Kawhi. Even if he says he's going to play. He probably already knows he's not gonna play.

[RD2191]

Bend over, I'll ing show you a disappointing package.

The Olympics are gonna be held in Japan (2020). Asia is a huge market Uncle and co. are targeting to improve the endorsements prospects of their client. That's why nephew will show up in the hope to be selected in two years time.

Don't expect any thawing in the relationship, this is again a business move. But, if I were Pop, if this turd eventually forces his way out on these disgraceful terms, I'm not picking him for the 2020 squad..

EVERYONE hated the Pau deal from jumpstreet. No one thought he was tradeable, especially not as anything other than a semi-expiring. SA could still use the team to bring in a better player with them giving other incentive. But trading it for value by itself? Nope. I responded to RealGMers suggesting as much not too long ago.

Brah. Literally every PATFO fluffer said that contract would be tradeable in a year or two. Not saying you did, but there were definitely more than just a few here who were justifying that deal whether they hated it or not.

Spurs are beginning to fire up trade talks with the Raptors again. This time the deal looks more likely to happen since they were very close to making a deal last week. Actually they had an agreement last week, but Toronto backed out. Hopefully we hear something soon. I was told last week the talks fell apart because of concerns over Kawhi's health. The Spurs believed the Raptors would comeback after thinking more on it. However, they had potential deals with the Clippers and The Suns, but felt Toronto would more likely be the team he would be traded to.

Again something might happen today. I really hope so, so that Cris Carter can eat his words. I would love to hear what he has to say if this deal goes down.

2/10 trolling tbh

No. There is no development piece there. The youngest piece is Brogdon, who's already 25, and is what he is. Middleton is 26, and has his own checkered history, playing less than 30 games twice. Henson is 27.

Very young players, like 19-21, and picks. An All Star, or All NBA player. Nothing else, or you're just taking out some other team's garbage.

In a perfect world they wouldn't be the perfect team. But in the post apocalyptic world Kawhi has dealt us, they are. All three of those guys are solid, max effort, solid Spurs type players. They are already good, but I think they could be even better on the Spurs. Much like Bobo was. Win.

And then the kicker of it all is you send Kawhi to a cold, dark NBA wasteland where he'd have to share the ball with Giannis. His star would diminish so.e and he'd probably become even more despondent. Win.

Cost Kawhi and his group $80MM when they make him go to the Lakers next year. ing Win.

He's starting to bull at this point ..

[Mugen]

I dgaf who we get back in return at this point tbh...

I just want the mute POS to be sent anywhere other than LA so he has to waste a year of his prime in somewhere he hates AND take a paycut to go to LA the following summer...

[2Cleva]

Kawhi's camp just backed themselves into a corner.

All LA needs is one team with cap space and Sacramento has it.

And their GM just happens to be an old teammate of Magic's.

I like Middleton but he’s essentially an expiring contract at $13 million with a PO he only exercises if he gets hurt. Guys like him will be paid more, so while he’s a good player he has limited value. If I’m the Spurs, I’d tell them “I’d rather keep Kawhi this year, let him walk, and sign Middleton from you with my cap space”

Henson has little value as he’s on an eight figure per year contract.

Brogdon is fine as a bit piece and is two years from RFA. But not a centerpiece.

Pretty much. Why would the Spurs trade him now if they've waited this long? They'll definitely wait to see if shows up to the team USA camp and ups his trade value.

In this latest installment of the What Does Pop and Magic Want You Thinking, Pop through Woj's mouth still wants me to believe the supermax might not be a certainty, while AIDS through Fatmona's blubber wants me to believe he doesn't want Kawhi at the expense of PATFO's demands. I think Pop has already made it clear to Magic, and by extension every other GM, that he is not letting Kawhi go as long as Kawhi is under contract.

The Spurs haven't allowed prospective trade partners to talk directly with Leonard, nor his representation, and it's unlikely that permission will be granted without an agreement in principle on a deal to acquire Leonard -- if even then.

I'm surprised Woj chose to disclose this fact. It makes a mockery of every trade proposal and reveals Popovich's true intent behind the feigned stoic posturing. What a zarzuela. The outcome is already determined. Much in the same way as the upcoming season's finals.

That was the joke.

This forum believes you guys have more leverage than you actually do. Been trying to say it but get shot down. You'll be disappointed with eventual package i'm certain

Yes that is certain. I'd be disappointed with Fultz + the Miami pick or Tatum + Brown + Memphis pick.

[DPG21920]

The comments do your thing ST

What have you done

And Philly will be further behind Boston

[DPG21920]

The good news is a TON of teams have called SA. May not be a bidding war but there is compe ion. If Kawhi shows he’s healthy and/or his camp puts pressure on LA to trade or lose him then it can work out. Will Dennis help SA help him?

[NASpurs]

Yes that is certain. I'd be disappointed with Fultz + the Miami pick or Tatum + Brown + Memphis pick.

yeah no kidding, Kawhi is worth Ben Simmons and other players... not ing Fultz and his "potential".
