    I don't know. Myself; if I had a talk with Magic Johnson advocating the Lakers and then a talk with Doc Rivers advocating the Clippers; I'd sure go with the Clippers. Doc seems really genuine, no bull shit. But who know what Kawhi really wants?

    Chris Broussard said he's going to the Lakers, Kawhi is meeting individually with people on Lakers, confirming plans, confirming stories align, confirming medical staff changes, LeBron is telling Kawhi will be the key long term star with Davis as LeBron begins stepping away in a few years.

    He had one dinner Monday with everyone from clippers and that's it, they are out.

    Durant really hoping Leonard goes to the Lakers, supplanting him as Most Despised.

    Oh I hope this is true

    Would love to see the Lakers with nothing for this max slot and now slim pickings of free agents

    I could see him maybe sign a 1 year deal with Toronto, receive all the Countries accolades and than sign somewhere else next year, if he wishes.

    Probably Cousins. Because we know how well that worked in NOP.

    The two year contract Jalen is saying though makes more sense, as it makes him a 10 vet for his next contract.

    Cousins will be playing in the Chinese League ... from which he'll eventually be ejected.

    They're saying many teams don't even want to give Cousins the MLE.

    This is the most nerve racking issue of the off season.

    Please god, Kawhi, please do not go to the Flakers.

    The crazy thing is that this decision effects us so much. If Kawhi goes to the Lakers then we have a very hard path to the finals. That being said, if he chooses to return to Toronto then we have a real chance of getting to the finals after the improvements Neil has made to the roster and the development of Ant. We're contenders either way but the Lake show would be tough to get by with Leonard, James and Davis.

    Tea leaves? More like random Twitter users and guys with no sources who later delete their tweets.
