    (Let's assume that you know the Lakers won't have cap room in a year when Leonard becomes a FA, so even if he leaves Portland, it's not for the Lakers.)

    On the principle that it is (even) better that the Lakers fail than that Portland succeeds.

    Kawhi, possibly the most gifted basketball player in the league, has a severely debilitating quad contusion and an attitude problem. You don't give up Dame for that.

    We need a FUCK NO option.

    4th in MVP voting, 3 yrs on contract, face of the franchise? You wanna trade him for a guy who couldn't even show his face to support his team during the playoffs?

    Fuck that.

    Yeah right? he already has said he wants to be in LA next year if he doesn't get traded their this year, lets trade Dame for one year of Kawhi even if he only plays half his games or less.

    SMART

    Not valid, we as mods need to know who to ban for saying yes. Public voting.

    Has he said that? I keep reading Kawhi said this or that but I can’t find anything where he’s actually quoted. It’s mostly journalists and their “sources”.

    The answer to this question is NO...

    If he signed a new deal damn right I would, pg isn’t a hard position to fill.

    If it doesn’t work than you deal CJ for someone that does get him the ball, isn’t it obvious yet that the NBA isn’t a team sport? It’s a STAR sport. He who has the biggest or most stars WINS. All at their best(Dame/CJ/Kawhi) Kawhi is the best and biggest star. Would I do it for a year rental? No. If he agreed to sign extension? HELL YES!
