Kawhi Predictions

Alec Burks and a future protected 2nd
That’s perfect. We can give them back their future second that they owe us but with protections. That would almost be like selecting Leonard over Burks begin with.
 
Could the spurs totally reload by dumping Kawhi? Probably. If he doesn't want to be there then I think they go for it.

You would think the celtics have the assets. I would do Kawhi for Jaylen Brown, Terry rozier, Smart, and 2 draft picks.

Or kawhi for Hayward, Brown, and Rozier.

I would do Kawhi for Ingram, Kuzma, Ball, and 2 draft picks. Otherwise, I don't think the Lakers have enough assets.

I am not sure there are a lot of other teams that have the assets for a trade for a top 3 small forward. The warriors do, but I don't think that they would trade klay Thomson and Draymond Green.
 
Seriously after what he's pulled with the Spurs?!?!

I heard he wants out because he's fed up with system basketball and wants to go more freestyle and wants in a big market. The only way it would work in Utah is if the signed him as a free agent. It would not go well if Leonard was forced to come here via trade

Talking about trading for KL is a waste of time and intelligence

You better leave now as you have little of either to share.
 
Hayward+ for Kawhi makes sense but I can't see Stevens signing off. Although Ainge is the type of GM that might pull the trigger anyway. Imagine if signing Hayward turned out to be their undoing..

oh ainge doesn't give a ****, he'd do it. Stevens would probably protest it. Could cause a lot of tension.
 
Haven"t DL and Quin worked gór SAS. Maybe they have to start come to us proces.
True, but there needs to be ammo to still do a deal. The best I think the Jazz could realistically do would be role players, expiring deals, and picks. Mitchell and Gobert are flat untouchable unless the peasants riot. The Spurs basically could get a better deal from a star power deprived team with young talent and higher projected picks. Wouldn't hurt to check, but I don't logically see the Jazz getting a deal for Kawhi done without trading Rudy or Donovan, and those are non starters for us.
 
There is speculation that it may be a degenerative condition... would make sense to hold himself out until signing his next deal if that is the case. Doesn’t want to get IT’d.
 
If the Spurs trade Kawhi I don't think an older established player like Hayward would be on their radar. I think that they would want to go full rebuild. I think that they would want young players, picks and big contracts that expire in 1 or 2 years to shed salary. Because with Kawhi gone they don't have much else to build around. Pau, Manu and Tony are all nearing retirement. Pop has talked retirement before. Aldridge is a solid player but he's not going to carry them to a championship. And he's not getting younger either. I think that they would burn it down and go full rebuild.
 
Kawhi is a California guy and the Lakers are looking for a top free agent. I don't know how it's going to happen, but I would guess that the Spurs are going to deal Kawhi to the Lakers in a multi-team trade.
Why is it, when other players do what Kawhi is doing, we would never hear the end of it. Because it is Kawhi, there are actually people supporting his decision? He is completely healthy and refuses to help his team in the 1st round of the playoffs. Does this not seem wrong to anyone else???
 
Hayward getting traded after a lost season after leaving the Jazz would be ****ing hilarious.

My secret wish is for Boston to include Hayward in a trade for Anthony Davis. Then have New Orleans resign Boogie.

I would absolutely love to see Hayward stuck with Boogie. (It's not going to happen, but it's fun to think about.)

Wouldn’t need to be multi team... Ingram, picks, cap fodder for Kawhi. Maybe they sneak Kuzma too.
 
Milwaukee probably has the some of the best trade assets and is a great team fit. Giannis + Kawhi would be a force in the East for years

I think people mostly don't know what is going on because it doesn't really make any ****ing sense.
