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

[midnightpulp]

Like that got Leonard wasn't bounced in the first by Matt Barnes.

That's truthfully Leonard's "legacy" as the alpha dog on the Spurs. 2014 was still Timmy D's team.

There were 3 spurs better than kl all playoffs just go check the stats. Been saying it since 2014

God if they do that and stretch Deng it would mean the max offer they'd be able to make Kawhi next summer would be 4 years, $76 million. If they signed James + CP3 and just salary dumped Deng their max offer could be 4 year, $108 million next summer (as opposed to 4 years, $139 million from other teams w/o Bird Rights or 5 year, $179 million with Bird Rights from whatever team the Spurs trade him to). Either way, signing James + CP3 would likely kill Leonard to LA next summer.

The Clippers are still in LA.

Eight years, unless you count 2011 as him not showing up against the Mavs

Well at least it guarantees no more GSW v Cav routes in the Finals.

[CGD]

It all depends on how badly Kawhi wants out. But Kawhi personally is much richer getting traded than signing as a free agent. I’m sure that’s why PG re-signs with Thunder.

Agreed, there is down side for Leonard in waiting until free agency. No max raises each year of new deal, and continued doubts about his health if he doesn’t play. On the flip sidebar if he stays and plays well enough to get on an all-team, Spurs might still have the super max next summer.

Again, this is why I put the squeeze on Leonard a little more at this point.

[Chillen]

Wow LeBron might be joining the Lakers. Everytime he looks over his shoulder the shadow of Kobe is gonna be following him lmfao.

[cd98]

True and they are more under the radar than Lakers, which fits his personality. But if he can’t join a super team and wants out of San Antonio, he needs a trade to make up ground he loses in missing the Super Max. Signing as a free agent means losing $$$.

Does free agency begin at 12 eastern time??

Stfu old man

[BatManu20]

Does free agency begin at 12 eastern time??

Yes. 4 more hours.

[offset formation]

That is way way better than mine

I coined Kawhrisis, ftr, tbh.

[BatManu20]

Staying in LA to work on his shot bc it’s still broken, apparently.

Translation: "Want to give me an excuse to stop posting if I'm wrong?"

- I'm no welcher son. I've seen the Lakers beat LBJ and his Cavs in Staples. Outside of Kevin Love, Kuz, Zo, BI, Hart, and Randle are better than all of LBJ's teammatesPERIOD.

[MannyIsGod]

Forfeit? Hardly. We swept the Spurs last year without stars and beat several playoff teams too. I know you hate the Lakers but come on son.

.......Lebron going alone to the Lakers makes the playoffs but its a worse team than he had last year because he doesn't even have Kevin Love. So yeah, forfeit. If you have to highlight regular season "sweeps" then that shows just how weak your team is.

[ducks]

risk injury incase of trade?

[LkrFan]

Julio, lakers didn’t make the playoffs …good god regular season sweep lol, and you’re actually bragging about that

Yep, we SWEPT your Spurs with the youngest roster in the league. Neal with it son.

[BatManu20]

[Play Boban]

PG isn’t a Kawhi replacement. If he were, he wouldn’t have been bounced in round one by Joe Ingles.


[FONT=Verdana]

“We’re going to offer you a meeting tomorrow morning and offer you a 4 year max deal with a player option. How does that sound?”

And Kawhitter was sitting on his ass while the Spurs got bounced.

[BatManu20]

risk injury incase of trade?

No, read the article. He’s staying in LA to work with a shooting coach instead because his jumpshot is still broken.

[NASpurs]

Please let it happen

[lmbebo]

hmmmmm

[look_at_g_shred]

Wait, don’t we want PG to sign in LA?

[Vic Petro]

Damn I’m surprised George is going to hold his ground and re-sign. Good for him. Now trade Kawhi to Khimki Moscow

[MannyIsGod]

Yep, we SWEPT your Spurs with the youngest roster in the league. Neal with it son.

Bro you're about to rape us with a trade and you're sitting here using regular season sweeps as talking fodder. Man, y'all forgot how to talk because you've been for too long.

[TekXX]

And the great news is they'll remain mediocre just like last year
