"The San Antonio Spurs have traded Kawhi Leonard and Danny Green to the Toronto Raptors for DeMar DeRozan, Jakob Poeltl and a protected 2019 first-round pick, the Spurs announced Wednesday.
The first-round pick Toronto sent to San Antonio is a protected 1-20 selection, a source told ESPN. After one year, it becomes two second-round picks.
The Spurs are including $5 million in cash to the Raptors (an amount meant to cover the luxury-tax hit incurred due to the trade kicker), a source told ESPN's Zach Lowe."
So Lebron signed with the Lakers for "various media opportunities". Big win for the Lakers. According to sources Leonard is clear that he is going to sign with the Lakers this next offseason. If that werent the case i would have expected them to sign Capela honestly, he would have fit right in. But i guess Mcgee can catch lobs too.
I still think this current Laker team can win 50 games since hell, they won 15 last year without Lebron and a weaker bench after going on that losing streak (good god almighty). The real Losers are the Raptors. But it seems to me they want to rebuild since most likely they will get two picks. The Spurs didnt have Leonard and made the playoffs now with Demar they should improve, maybe, since the west is stacked. The Raptors are renting Leonard. And i think they know that. In the East, they should be competitive. Demar wins because now he will be coached into the player he always should have been already. I still dont understand why the Raptors wouldnt trade Demar for a high first round Draft pick. Or a first and a second.
Lebron on the other hand could be looking at a 3peat with Leonard, and if the Lakers somehow someway come out of the west (its my opinion they can beat Houston and OKC, before Boogie i think they could have competed with GSW, but now, eeeehhhh, we need to see them play), however unlikely imagine? Leonard absolutely wants to be a Laker, alot of guys say hes from here but hes been a Laker fan, lives here, has his family here, went to school here, knows the organization, and knowing Magic
, They already have spoken.
*TLDR* And my choice for the poll is ME, im the real winner *tears*
