If Kawhi becomes available at the deadline (maybe the training staff tried pulling the same stunt the Spurs did and he secretly wants out in a state of fury), can we please trade JB for him this time? When healthy, Playoff Kawhi would be unstoppable alongside Tatum. And he gets to be the Lakers’ arch-nemesis.
JB, Langford, Hernangomez, three first-round picks, three first-round pick swaps:
Schröder/Buyout ring-chasing vet
Smart/Richardson
Leonard/Richardson
Tatum/G. Williams
Timelord/Horford
Above is good enough to win it all. This year. THIS year.
