CJ and 14 would be an interesting package but I’m not ready to give up that kind of value for a rental. Last year I would’ve given up our three picks for George but that’s because those picks were unknowns. CJ has more value.
It's funny to me how you are on the fence on CJ being a good player. It really doesn't make sense and you can't have it both ways. You can't, on one hand, basically say CJ sucks and name all the reasons why, then on the other hand say he's in enough to package with an unproven big and a worthless draft pick to get the best 2 way player in the NBA! Jesus.... Bottom line: I'm watching Woj RIGHT NOW on ESPN and he says STFU LA, Kawhi is staying in San Antonio (just like @SlyPokerDog said)
I think SA will end up trading Kawhi to Boston. Woj mentioned Jaylen Brown as a piece and if I’m San Antonio that’d appeal to me more than anything the lakers could put together. Besides, not even sure the lakers would WANT to trade for Kawhi, especially if they know they could just sign him next summer. It really is the same scenario as Paul George last summer.
I do NOT want lonzo ball to ever leave LA. They deserve this guy https://www.yahoo.com/sports/lavar-...nearly-killed-can-quiet-minute-045512451.html
I may be in the minority here but Im not sure that PG, Kawhi and LeBron would work. They seem to be similar players to me. I'm not saying they wouldnt be good but I don't think they would have the diversity to compete with the Warriors.
Disagree. In this case he can have it both ways. He can think CJ is ordinary while realizing others may highly value him. Which then makes complete sense to include him in the trade. Those opinions of CJ are not mutualy exclusive
Yeah, it's just not a good fit. Honestly, of all the guards in the league other than Curry and Harden, Lillard is the best fit next to them.
Here's what I think: Leonard will be a Spur at the beginning of next season, even if just to prove to other teams that he can play. The Spurs can rightly say to him, "look, nobody's offering us jack because they're scared you're a medical disaster. Prove you're not and then we'll talk."
One thing is for certain, the best NBA fans are the ones like this guy. Keeping things completely in perspective and not overreacting to small things.
Similar yes, but exceptionally versatile. I mean, if you had five Scottie Pippens on the floor, would anyone complain about bad fit? With LeBron, Kawhi, and PG, you've got the three best 2-way players in the league, all ~6'8" and able to switch everything, equally comfortable scoring inside or outside, all very good ball handlers and distributors... The PnR would be useless against that trio.
Spurs fans have to be the most spoiled because they were literally contenders for almost 2 decades. They're not dealing with it well. Welcome to the rest of the NBA where we're just the fodder of a couple teams. It's not fun. The truth is that Duncan was holding that team together, not Pop, and now that he's gone they're mortal like the rest of us.
