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

[look_at_g_shred]

Maybe he deleted all his stuff on IG because he is getting traded but not to SA. I could easily see him going to the lakers.

Nearly half a dozen general managers told Bleacher Report’s Ric Bucher during the first weekend of the Las Vegas Summer League that they would trade for San Antonio Spurs star Kawhi Leonard even without a guarantee he’ll stay beyond next season.

Leonard, who has requested a trade from the Spurs, will become a unrestricted free agent in 2019.

“I wouldn’t say we’re all scared to death to make a deal because there’s no chance he’ll re-sign [with a team somewhere other than L.A.],” an Eastern Conference general manager told Bucher. “PG [Paul George] did. C-Webb [Chris Webber] did.”

Need to fan this narrative!!

I asked because a few articles suggested there were several teams who would rent Leonard and then flip him to the Lakers in February. I know teams with connections to the Spurs would not. I wasn’t sure where Toronto stood in that regard.

Anything can happen. I don't think that would be Toronto's intentions, but Kawhi could try to force his way out. I don't know honestly.

DeRozan fits what SA wants to apparently do which is get another all-star type player so they can be compe ive around LMA. I hate, but if SA had DeRozan last year instead of no Kawhi then SA would have been a 3rd seed.

If they can get OG/Siakam along with DeRozan it would not be awful as far as at least SA is getting some decent young players back with DeRozan in the event he bolts.

They won’t have any picks that are worth anything which sucks, but SA’s goal seems to be staying compe ive vs getting a young star + top picks it appears.

One would hope they could flip DeRozan later since he would have more or equal value to b*tchmade Kawhi at this point.

That would be amazing. It would take LA out of the Kawhi sweepstakes most likely and DeRozan literally just got caught on film saying “ no” to coming to LA.

Nah. Kawhi is going to be moved to Toronto. I'm assuming it's for DeRozan. It wouldn't make much sense to move Kawhi for Lowry.

A lot of us still remember the old "asterisk le" comments too.

@ DeRozan wiping out his IG account

Has it always said "Started In Compton... #Comp10"?

[HarlemHeat37]

I'd literally vomit if the Spurs got DeRozan, tbh..

[NASpurs]

wtf does that even mean?

Yeah I'm not thrilled about this either, but I'd rather have him than Lowry if this trade goes down, which I'm hearing it should. I'd start another thread regarding this news, but I'd one will be started once the trade actually goes down.

Not going to lie, I'm skeptical when I read your posts but if this goes down, I'll believe everything you'll ever say.

Is that from his Instagram account or some other social media account?

Spurs about to go from Autism to Cancer. Spectacular.

If he buys into the Spurs culture, DeRozan is intriguing. 28 PPG guys don't grow on trees. Gay was a career loser/cancer and I said if he buys in he will do well, and sure enough he was a pro's pro and he ended up being a great Spur.

From his IG account, one of his stories.

Agreed but I do enjoy the idea of seeing Kawhi suffer in Toronto. He will definitely hate it up there granted he will only be there for a year.

LOL. I don't blame you. I was almost right back before the traded deadline. The Spurs were going to trade him, but they backed off. I'm sure they regret it now because apparently Tatum was part of that offer.

I wouldn't make stuff up just because. I actually believe it'll go down.

With him the Spurs are 50 win team. They are not going to win a le but at least we will still have a good team to watch.

So all I know about the brick brothers up in Toronto is that they're pretty inefficient offensively? What else is up with DeRozan?
