How is this an NBA Finals lock??

They are a depleted overall roster big two in a crowded field of big twos in the West
And they wont have cap space or draft picks for a decade.

Lebron and AD have a shit ton of cash to flesh out their roster now.
Curry, Thompson, Draymond, Russell are not going anywhere.
Did the Rockets duo of CP3/Harden break up?
The Spurs have Derozan + Aldridge and a deluge of depth assets.
The Nuggets have Joker and Murray.
Portland is feeling it with Lillard and McCollum.


And often injured Kawhi cannot take off his normal 20 games "to rest" or they could end up a 7 seed with limited depth.

Kawhi and PG basically did that "it's not you, it's me" shit on the Lakers.

Lakers are basically the Knicks but just with lipstick.

Kawhi Leonard.

Wow! A crazy free agency season just got crazier. The Warriors need to bring back Jerry West, obviously. LOL.

As a Raps fan this guy is fuckin dead to me now. I get it. Home. Your home is a shit hole. Enjoy it. You just added two players made of glass LAC.

5 number one picks
4 of them unprotected
2 very good NBA player
2 pick swaps

All for PAUL GEORGE??

That is some Herschel Walker level nonsense. You could build an expansion team with that haul.

I would not necessarily call that "genius" without seeing how it unfolds.

Clippers amassed a huge collection of picks the last few years.

Steep ass price, I agree.

But, it was the only way to get Kawhi.

He wasn't coming alone.

Steep ass price.

So, they should fit right in, Historically....

He got you a title. Raptors took a risk and won. Be happy

Could have been eliminated in round 2 and watch him leave.

He just gave your pedestrian franchise a championship. You should be worshiping a fathead of himself everyday.

@Mecca
Congrats on the news, I still might not like the Clippers because they play in LA but I'd much rather see Kawhi go there than with their neighbor. Can't wait for the Kings/Clippers 1st round matchup next year.

 

[bksballer89]

This was such a kawhi move to announce his decision just before 2 AM EST lol

C'mon, pal, he never wanted to go to Toronto. He was forced to go there, but he gave you the only championship in Raptors history and the first championship for a Canadian team in a major sport in like forever.

Eh. You never know how draft picks are going to work out.

Shai is still very raw. He got semi-dogged house in the middle of the season and Gallo is one of the most injury prone players in the league; even though I love him as a player.

It's Paul George and almost a NBA finals lock with the support now. Take it and run.

MVP candidate.

His shoulder is problematic.

But, there has never been a guy of Kawhi's caliber to ever CHOOSE the Clippers.

Klaw, Beverley and George...

Defense and Clippers have rarely been used in the same sentence without the words " lack of ".

 

[WiggyRuss]

So, they should fit right in, Historically....

congrats MEcca!!!!

you have THE TEAM in LA now....lollollol

 

[Davis_Mike]

I wake-up to hit the bathroom & get a drink. Then I make a mistake by checking my phone. Going to have a hard time falling back to sleep now.

The Lakers got some serious shade thrown at them by Kawhi. And then the Lakers compound their problems by spending their remaining cap space on Danny Green & KCP...

Likely going to have to fill out the roster with the combination of Rondo, Stephenson, Korver, Crawford, or Cousins...

Congrats, Mecca.
