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

[spurraider21]

All of that is just so he can save face. Otherwise, the truth is pretty damning of him, how he essentially held out the entire season, quit on his team and is now demanding a trade out. This and his group are amateur hour tbh.

yeah, like i said, it can certainly be said that he didnt deserve to have the team have his back. but there were definitely things they could have done better from a PR perspective imo. tho its pretty likely he had already checked out way back.

The Knicks

[BatManu20]

I'd rather take the 2 Clippers picks and Harris than the Lakers deal, sadly..

I don't.. Spurs won’t trade him the Lakers anyways, but hypothetically, I’d rather have Ingram, Kuzma, & a pick than Tobias Harris, who is a FA next summer and who most likely leave, and two picks in the teens.

[RD2191]

everyone here is ting on parker's comments... but none of you spanish speakers are throwing shade at manu for doing the same

Manu too tbh

[ducks]

The Knicks

be knicks luck he goes there and gets hurt and never plays again

Kuzma is trash and you're talking about a pick in the late 20s. The Lakers offer is straight garbage.

[ducks]

Manu too tbh

HE QUIT GOT CALLED OUT

The Lakers deal is slightly better, but I'd rather not trade him to his preferred destination, which is why I said "sadly"..

Always be skeptical of Lakers prospects, though, they're never as good as advertised..

I'm sorry, I don't speak re .

[Russ]

Step 1 -- Say you want to stay with the Spurs ("of course").

Step 2 -- Sit out the season.

Step 3 -- Say your "100%" (once the season is over).

Step 4 -- Say you've been "betrayed."

Easy as 1, 2, 3 . . .

[BillMc]

So it is just like Chinook said. A power play.

Of course give him 219 and still to be traded as soon as he can (after 1 year)

[daslicer]

At anybody who believes what Parker or Manu said is the reason for Kawhi wanting to leave. First of all he's a grown man and if he wanted to he could have straight up told both Parker and Manu to their faces to off. Pretty embarrassing to be in your prime and be the franchise player and punked by two old guys. I got no respect for anybody who can't stand up for themselves. Secondly if you haven't figured it out Uncle Dennis controls him and Uncle Dennis had his sights set on LA way before this incident took place.

can someone tell what jabari young's deal is

does he hate the spurs

[BillMc]

Give us Kyrie and Tatum.

[MoSpur02]

I'm not shocked one bit. Surprised they couldn't work it out, but not shocked after everything I heard around the trade deadline. The relationship between him and the organization and the rest of the team wasn't all that.

I am disappointed, but in a way sort of excited for what the future might hold for the Spurs. I've been fortunate enough to see them win all 5 championships.

Go Spurs Go

Seems like it. Not very impartial, but true sports journalism died about 5 years ago.

[HarlemHeat37]

He's trying to become Kawhi's Windhorst only way it pays off is if Kawhi goes to the Lakers, though..

[sammy]

Lol Kawhi’s Camp using this bull excuse just bc he wants to live in LA.

Betrayal! FU Kawhi! You betrayed the Spurs! You sat a whole year robbing the Spurs of 19 million dollars! The betrayal is what you did to the Spurs when you quit! Spurs need to send this idiot to the East and trade with Boston get Kyrie & Tatum!

[MoSpur02]

He is possibly Kawhi's camp's mouthpiece. He is from Philly and I'm not sure the Spurs are his favorite teams to follow.

So
Much
This

I don't think his group has any idea what Pop has in store for them. His agent works out of a car trunk, so there won't be any blowback from an agency. They're in way over their heads.

I hope Jabari enjoys his new gig with the Sacramento Bee.
