lol

Raptors scored big time

They did if they can convince Kawhi to extend his contract, otherwise they gave up a solid player and other parts to at best lose in the finals and then need to start rebuilding.

This is the best news for the Lakers, they dont need to worry about giving up any young pieces to get Kahwi now, they can now package those to add a 3rd star.

Weren't going anywhere with Demar. They gave it one more shot last year and it didn't work.

Even if they get to a final and then lose him for nothing that would still be the best season in team history, would make them a shit ton of money in merch and they get a rebuild going that they would have to face down anyway if things this year didn't go well.

I'm just hoping the fucking guy shows up lol.

Far from a lock he goes to the Lakers next summer.

Reasons like this is why players have to do what's best for them. Can't care about loyalty to these teams.

Sources close to DeRozan told ESPN's Chris Haynes that DeRozan met with Toronto brass in Las Vegas during summer league and was told he would not be traded.

In a story posted on his Instagram page on Wednesday morning, DeRozan wrote, "Be told one thing & the outcome another. Can't trust em. Ain't no loyalty in this game. Sell you out quick for a little bit of nothing... Soon you'll understand... Don't disturb..."

This.

And I've been saying that Pop was NEVER going to trade Kawhi to the Lakers, that was beyond wishful thinking. On top of that, I was always told that the Lakers offered the best package. Well, the Raptors just traded an all-star to the Spurs (more players are going to be announced in the trade).

true...lol....

and seriously- if at the trade deadline its not working out- are the Sixers REALLY going to say no to a reasonable package if you want to recoup some assets?

Well, the Spurs kept themselves in the playoff mix (need to see what other players are involved).

in a way....maybe we should not be surprised that Pop traded for an All Star under contract and some additional pieces instead of a couple of kids who have never done anything but lose.

I kind of agree, but people were saying that about Paul George last year. Personally, I hope it works out for Toronto.
