Josh Richardson to Philly for Butler. Idk who that is. How many years before Heat try to trade Butler?
Clips really thought they could lure Jimmy to play with Kawhi and that would be enough to beat out AD/LeBron + global LAL branding. Smh Raptors can gtfo here as well with their " represent our country " BS Kawhi can join LAL and rep the US, China, Italy, Serbia, etc. Laker Nation knows no bounds
Just wish KL would make a decision sooner rather than later given the available pieces are going away. On the other hand, this really narrows down the choices to Raptors and Lakers. If KL was concerned about the pieces around him, he would have made a quick decision today. But I think he really has made up his decision. The Raptors have not done anything to improve the team, but the Lakers have AD, Kuzma and Lebron. They already have an improved team that can only get better with KL. So I'm hoping that KL's talk with Magic was just a way to tell the Lakers FO that he is in and not to worry about all the other signings talking place. Essentially sit tight....without creating an obvious tampering issue. Anyway, my two cents.
Danny Green reportedly waiting to see what happens with Kawhi, looks like he'll be an option for LAL if Kawhi doesn't land Think a handful of other guys are doing the same..probably Beverley, potentially Seth Curry. D'angelo still not renounced, won't be an option unless he is..sounds like D'angelo and Towns want to play together in Minny
Yup. If he was going to Toronto why the wait? They would also be making a bigger push. His teammates know he is going to LA. He has wanted to come to LA since being in SA. He asked for a trade to come here the same way AD did. Toronto knew it was a 1 and done thing. Kawhi wants max branding possibilities with his new balance deal without having to be any more extroverted than he wants to. Here just being LA Lakers and winning championships will skyrocket NB into the same space that Steph put UnderArmour in. Its gonna be the biggest big 3 plus lots of old veterans.
Derrick Favors to the Pels. warriors trying to sign n trade for Dlo and Minny wants him bad. Towns and Dlo are a pair of knuckleheads that deserve each other
Mutual interest between Seth Curry and LAL. Maybe a promise that he can either get the room exception if Kawhi lands or more $ if Kawhi doesn't land. Otherwise you'd have to think he would've signed already
Instead he goes to a dying dynasty. He's the enemy for sure now. He's going down with that ship. Kawhi on da way And Caruso
Oh shit. Iguodala is going to Memphis in the trade Lol that's how much they appreciate him. But he did burn it down the other day admitting that GSW lied about his injury the other year
Wow. For an unathletic, ball dominant guard that doesn't play a ton of defense. I dont like that deal for the Warriors. They should have gone after Jimmy Butler
