Re: Kawhi Leonard Injury update
I'm not getting sucked in by this routine again. I just hope he strings enough good games together so we can trade him to a desperate team for a decent return.

Surely he can start and run around for a few minutes?
A Bobblehead Willis Reed Christmas kinda thing.

Re: Kawhi Leonard Injury update
Kawhi is now listed as game time decision for Thursday. I don't think he'll actually play, but they're not doing this unless he's getting pretty close...

Re: Kawhi Leonard Injury update
Its been a fun season so far. Love the new look Clippers. Hopefully Leonard can contribute to that. But, I still want to see Powell and Zubac remain aggressive on offense with Leonard on the court.

Re: Kawhi Leonard Injury update
The straw that stirs the drink, just the way he likes it.
James Harden on how his role will change when Kawhi Leonard returns:
“It's funny, me and Kawhi talked about that on the bench today. Whenever his return is, I said just work your way in. Like, he feels like he doesn’t want to come over and mess up the flow and chemistry that we have been building up. But I don’t think it’s gonna be a problem. I've been in every situation in the sense of being the main guy, having to [take a step back]. For our team, we’re gonna still play the same way. It's just that we got another elite weapon on both ends of the floor.”

Re: Kawhi Leonard Injury update
Kawhi needs to close the games. That’s what’s been missing against the better teams. Iam sure they will figure it out.

Re: Kawhi Leonard Injury update
Would the Clippers be willing to move Leonard for salary cap relief?
The Blazers have players that could contribute now, several on shorter contracts.
The Blazers franchise needs this year's pick to be a foundational piece, but could potentially offer future draft capitol.

We're hoping Kawhi can contribute now.
To refer to him as 'salary relief' is sacrilegious

I'm not sure what you're saying? (No sarcasm from me)
I was suggesting sending shorter contracts to the Clippers to create salary cap relief, not KL as salary cap relief.
I'm not saying it should happen, just throwing out ideas.

Trading him in the middle of last season would have been selling high, trading him now would be selling low. So we wouldn't move him just to get off his contract, AFAIK we're not looking for cap relief. We know he's a huge injury risk, but signing him to that contract is water under the bridge, and I think our roster is sort of structured around getting him back so this is how we're gonna roll.

If he actually comes back next week, plays 8-10 games before the trade deadline while putting up solid numbers, what is his trade value ?
We all know Kawhi is often the best player when he is on the court, but I think we are living in a fantasy world by thinking we will be a contender with Kawhi on the roster. We need to trade him for cap relief and picks, or he needs to retire. I just don't want this to be a distraction and false hope for the team and the fans.

Re: Kawhi Leonard Injury update
I'm so tired of this. Watch this drag on with more false hope and moving goalposts for the rest of the season. I feel like he's just never going to be back and he and the team need to finally be honest about that.

Return to Los Angeles Clippers
