Hopefully, its just a game to drive up the price from some Eastern team. Or the media is just exaggerating the depth of conversation. It does kinda seem they may have decided they can't keep KL though and begun to move on.
I mean, I hate it, but Ingram + Kuz + Ball (the asset) is not bad. With some other moves, SA can be really good IMO. If LA loses those guys and adds Kawhi/Bron they will be sick, but they will be beatable without a third star (which they may get, who knows).

I wouldn't go that far. If LeBron stays in Cleveland it could very well end up the Lakers make the best offer. But if they do that re ed trade now there is no point in being a Spurs fan, since they'll never be good again if they're doing something so incompetent as handing Leonard to LA when free agency could completely change the trade market for Kawhi.
This 100%. If these guys just project out to decent starters but not potential stars (key word “potential”) you don’t want to tie yourself to them. Quan y is not quality. Kuzma is cost-controlled and counting stats are fine, but he was a turnover machine last year and is still raw. Ingram can’t stay healthy and will start being expensive very soon. Given the cap crunch, will they be that much better than what you can pick up in free agency? And long term, who knows if you’re being dealt a KQ suited or an 87 offsuit?
If Lonzo can be traded with an unprotected draft pick coming back, this becomes instantly more interesting.
Just don’t do anything, let LeBron and pg go wherever first, getting kuzma and Ingram plus wtvr other isn’t worth giving the lakers a superteam
Yup. If RC and Pop just flat out cave at this point, I'll be happily done with the team.
The key to the deal is what you can get for Lonzo i.e a high 1st or another high end prospect.. Lonzo himself I don’t want .. His value may not be that high unfortunately due to the Lavar factor.
That final stage of acceptance where you talk yourself into thinking the Lakers trash isn't that bad. I'm hoping Pop and RC won't cuck out like a lot of people on this board but they probably will.
I don't want that uncertainty. You make Magic go out and get something you want with Lonzo as the bait.
Interesting start to this. Says Kawhi isn’t that enamored w/a potential paparazzi-like atmosphere playing in LA w/LeBron.
-Michael Wright Tweet which is based on SAS’ podcast
Is Kawhi even healthy? The Lakers seem like the type to not even double check that before trading for him.
Haha, this choad.
Don't give up on the Spurs yet. Maybe Pop is just trolling Kawhi with this supposed Laker deal.
If they flipped Lonzo for Kyrie, it wouldn't be bad but Lonzo andhis high rolling father would be a three year rental.
You act like the Spurs are doing this by choice. We all know this ing sucks man. The point is you take the best deal possible. You don't sit there and say go yourself for the sake of saying go yourself. I don't care what Ingram's stats are on a team. Kawhi had the big 3 and Pop to learn from but you act like Ingram didn't have a good second year. He's young. Same with Kuzma.
THey've got potential. Is it an ideal trade? No. But it might be the best the Spurs can get.
You guys don't have the right frame of mind. This is ing hysterical.
Well, Kawhi, you shouldn't have let your uncle dictate what you should do or where you should play.
So Kawhi wants to go to the Lakers but doesn't want all the hollywood crap that comes with it? Maybe this guy really is a re ed autist.
Tbh if I had a choice with a gun to my head of Lakers offer of Ingram + Kuzma + Lonzo or a second round pick from any other team in prob taking the second rounder.
This is the kind of that gets you called a spoiled ass fan.
It will be even more funny when these fans start ing about how much these guys suck during the season and how the Spurs should have never traded Kawhi. It's amazing how great the media is at brainwashing people.
Spurs aren't trading , and that includes Leonard.
