On second thought, now that the Warriors are going to lose without him, why would Durant leave? He doesn't really need any clout anymore since they lost without him, might as well stay where he's comfortable..
He’s not going to play with LeBron. And the clippers are a bunch of ing losers. They have always been losers. They will always be losers. Nobody gives a about the clippers. He has a tremendous situation in Toronto. Leaving would be a really dumb move. A really really really really dumb move.

The Raptore are good, but a healthy Warriors team is winning in 5.
Poop instructing Kerr how to lose to a rookie coach
Remember when gots made this a 200+ page thread because he wouldn't play against the Suns and Hawks of the league in the regular season

Udoka just abandoned this franchise for a team with a 22 year old and a 25 year old as their franchise cornerstones. Let's be conservative and say Embiid's medical history will stunt his peak to 30 years old, giving the Sixers a 5-year le window. That's what Udoka chose over the Spurs' prospects. He does not think Derrick White in 5 years of development will be where Simmons/Embiid will be. The Spurs are far too superior to enter the lottery, the international talent pool is no longer an exclusive Spurs secret with Masai Ujiri building a talent pipeline to Africa--a next level development to what the Spurs pioneered in Europe and Latin America, and finally the asking price for franchise-level talent on the free market is too steep and prohibitive for ownership. Udoka even bailed on the only recognizable FA the Spurs succeeded on attracting, who he himself recruited. So where does that leave the franchise in terms of lucking into a generational talent like Duncan and Leonard needed to take a team all the way?
ing savage to include DDR like that.

Damn
All this time, we've been hoping to catch the Dubs at less than full strength -- and Nephew is the one to do it.
Imagine trading the best player in the world for demar deroxan
board man gets paid.
Yep and on our dime. I'll try to be happy for TO's fan-base. They have a lot to thank us for like the $20 million rehab of their star.All this time, we've been hoping to catch the Dubs at less than full strength -- and Nephew is the one to do it.
Truth, bro. The sad truth.
I know you are the all knowing basketball God of ST, but winning three straight scoring les & four overall needs no context.
And whether you find the les as "viable" is insignificant.
And the Spurs lol
I wonder if Pop is punching air or DeRozan
Not if he refuses to take the court.
I just came here to say this: Kawhi.
I have a friend close to the Popovich family. One thread that has been mentioned but which may not get enough emphasis is how Kawhi’s handlers came to realize just how big Kawhi can be (China trip, etc).
Yes, Uncle and co. were rank amateurs, so they began requesting all manner of nonsense. But the Spurs were unprepared. Uncle legitimately saw other franchises, say Houston or LA, had much more infrastructure for promoting their stars and giving them commercial opportunities. They also provided more “star treatment”.
I’m now speculating, but it seems the Spurs were slow to make the connection, and their “culture” in this instance led them to be dismissive. It wasn’t helped by Uncle’s amateurish approach. But a smarter organization may have been more cautious and accommodating, and taken the concerns of Kawhi’s most trusted figure more seriously.
Add the above to the mix of injuries and other personal things (as Timvp has alluded to), and you can break a relationship. Uncle played a long game but I am not convinced he wouldn’t have made a different decision had the org done things differently. I’m still annoyed by Pop’s “no comment, no looking back” speech at the season’s commencement, because it means no accountability. Curious for an org built on it.
Anyway, I’m still rooting for Kawhi and happy to see the Warriors get smashed. At the beginning of the season, I called the Raptors my favorite to win it all; I was laughed at by many! But I remembered 2017.
if that's true, spurfan it is better to be prepared for eternal mediocrity, guys like Tim Duncan are extremely rare (actually he's the only one of his kind, to this day imbeciles credit their les to Pop, if he had won 3 in NY he would be a top 3 in history, the normal player wants to win and be revered for it)
