Kawhi Leonard (Merged Threads)

[Roy H.]

He thinks spurs want Tatum and Brown

Which is just silly.

Brown + Morris + Rozier + best of our 2019 draft picks + future #1, if and only if Kawhi signs off and pending a thorough physical

I hope Kawhi gets traded to Lakers.  Let Houston, GSW and LAL beat on each other while the C's have a clear path to the finals.  I do not think that a team in LA with LBJ, Kawhi and Paul George is better then what the GSW's have.  I'd take Curry, Green, Durant and Klay over that team 100% of the time.  I pray the C's do not trade for Kawhi and run it back with the same team.  I think the C's team is just as good as any other team out there as currently constructed with two potential Lotter picks to keep the youth movement moving for the next 10 years.  No Kawhi please.

LeBron is not leaving Cleveland if LA can't get at least two more star players.

I don’t think this is true.

I agree too... I think LeBron has known that he's headed to LA since last year or longer. I guess we'll see.

[CF033]

Let's just take the whole Lakers core for Brown to really make things weird.

Brown, Smart, Hart to SA
Ingram, Kuzma, Ball to BOS (and we flip Ball for a late lottery pick?)
Leonard to LAL

Yikes I don't want to be in any situation where Lonzo Ball (and Lavar Ball) might end up in Boston. Better to not risk that .

I don't think LeBron will leave Cleveland a second time if it's not for a legitimately better team. If LA can only add LeBron, then they make the playoffs and are one and done. If LA can add LeBron and George, then they make the second round. If LA adds all three, then they have a chance to win it all. If LeBron stays in Cleveland, their still an ECF contender.

Celtics should have Paul Pierce and Bill Russell take Kawhi out to dinner.

I prefer James and Leonard go to la. Let them, Houston and g state eat each other

The Spurs are just a classy organization so his attitude still scares me which leaves me on the fence, plus I love Brown’s upside.

As d wade said a few weeks ago, lifestyle is number one on James list. He might have a bad year but the Lakers will add talent around him. He can’t be scared to take the first steps

Cleveland roster is awful and will not get better anytime soon. He isn’t winning there either

Hearing Jaylen Brown has NOT been discussed in any potential deal for Kawhi Leonard. #Celtics⁠ ⁠ are taking conservative approach in talks with #Spurs.

I don’t buy this, either. Washburn is probably carrying water for the Celtics, trying to spare Jaylen’s psyche.

Maybe, but one thing for sure, Kyrie can't be offered by Danny unless he has a done deal; otherwise the chances of him bolting increase dramatically, no?
