Kawhi wants out of San Antonio

[tlance]

Then you haven't been paying attention.

LeBron James, IMO is the most powerful man in the NBA. Moreso than commisioner Silver or any owner.

So PG doesn’t care about money or winning lolzzz

I wouldn't say that.

In Indy he didn't get to play with a star player like Russ so I understand why he wouldn't sign a max deal there.

He also seems like a player who would prefer living in OKC instead of LA based on the type of life he lives

 

[Shanemansj13]

Required? Fuck him.

He ain't running shit.

Like I said before, right now he owns the Lakers if they want him to sign. Whoever HE want, they better get

Ok the winning part, overblown, bc they could possibly contend but why not sign that 2 year deal and get max? OKC is over the salary cap with or without Melo, it would help them down the line with the luxury tax but Adams, RW and PG are combined for $100M. Is that enough to beat GS? I guess we will see

and folks still don't get why i don't want him...

Then he can sign somewhere else.....we can sign players to 1 year deals and go fishing next summer.

Magic isn't stupid. Like Gilbert and their FO.

As several stated last night when the deal took place, when you suffer the type of injury he had years ago then you usually opt for a longer deal instead of the 1+1 deal that KD and Lebron been signing.

I don't think it is enough to beat GSW but if they get rid of Melo and get Roberson back healthy, I think they can possibly make the WCF or 2nd round at least.

Getting rid of Melo is mandatory though

Let the kids develop another year is better than James holding our team hostage.

The only thing that makes me think Leonard could come next summer is he hasn't changed his mind.

PG waffled back and forth more than a hormomal pregnant woman.

No offense ladies.

Leonard also hasn't played anywhere else.

If he gets banished to the right situation, you could lose him too.

Your posts today vs. Your posts just yesterday are giving me whiplash.

Isn't this what @ChiefsLakers67 has been saying all year and you questioned his fandom?

This isn't a new LeBron tactic.

He's been playing this game the last decade.

 

[Mecca]

I ain't saying a word...

but yep...

Your fanhood was questioned for something similar.

The Cavs arem"t the Lakers.

Exactly lol.

Dude been living under a rock

Not a Lebron fan but if his goal is winning more title right this moment, going to Philly makes much more sense than going to the Lakers with just Kawhi.

That Lakers team would not be good enough to beat the Warriors 4 of 7.

Let me know how bad it gets.....I know a great chiropractor.

I can fly you out and we........

Everything is becoming a big problem for the Lakers.

If LeBron can't get Kahwi to go with him to LA, then what? He might go to Philly or stay in Cleveland for another year. Why go to a team that might not make the playoffs. How about playing in Boston for one year?? With the Celtics he'd be almost guaranteed another shot against the Warriors and a much better chance to win.

The Spurs don't have to do a thing. They could wait until the trade deadline and haul in a pile because there will be a team that needs that one player to get into the dance and Leonard might just be that ticket.

Odd thing about the NBA........just when all the lights are starting to shine their brightest, someone screws with the power source.

As a Warriors fan I was actually jazzed to have PG, LeBron, and Kawhi all on the Lakers. That's a superteam as good as the Ws. I wanted to see it.

leBron plus Kawhi is good but not equal.

It's 4 years. In 3 the Ws are done anyway

I doubt he consulted his agent before agreeing to that contract structure though. That 10 year veteran increase is no joke.

Houston didn't need 3 to push them last year. It depends upon who the Lakers can fill out their roster with, how much they give up for Kawhi (or do they risk the wait?), etc.

I'm guessing I'll see new Lakers legend Moe Wagner hooping tomorrow night before we hear anything from Lebron.
