What do y’all think of this Kawhi to LAL tweet? 

Post#1 » by DS17 » Wed Mar 6, 2019 6:35 am

From Jordan schultz’ Twitter “A source close to #LeBron tells me that #Kawhi Leonard reached out to James, telling him he very much wanted to play together. They spoke about Kawhi's lockdown defensive ability, which would alleviate pressure off of LeBron.”

What do you think... :/. Oh gosh I hope this is true. Would explain why lebron stays smiling despite us losing every single game. We may lose the battle but we can win the War!!!!

I hope so. But one thing that does give me great hope about Kawhi is Cris Carter. He says the Lakers are very much in play and he's one of the few represented by Kawhi's management team.

Agreed. Cris Carter seems to be very close with Kawhi and he has mentioned a number of times that Los Angeles is a major destination spot for Kawhi.

I sure hope so..the LA Lakers and not the "Flippers". But with the Raptors enjoying a great run...I wonder if he will really leave Toronto. They can even hold the fort down without him when he is in minute restrictions. That is a good team.

Kawhi could right the ship. He becomes our alpha and let Lebron become his Robin. The narrative has changed here with Lebron's decline, I'm praying that's what was keeping Kawhi from the Lakers. Lebron should no longer have the power to call the shots after this failed season. The locker room won't follow a guy who won't go to war for a full season and play hard on both ends.

If magic could pull off the Kawhi signing it's one of the few things he can do to save his employment with the Lakers.

Agreed. LeBron could be to Kawhi what Wade was to him in Miami. Additionally, a Lonzo, Ingram, Kawhi, LeBron lineup would be godlike defensively.

I think after Kawhi realizes he and Giannis can basically be the new LeBrons in the East, he may stay.

Raptors may reach the Finals and crash the RealGM servers.

I think both the OP and Schultz are trolling.

“Hey, LeBron. Since you don’t play defense anymore, I thought I could get to do that for both of us. That way, you get to save your knees, pad your legacy stats; and you can be the one who gets the glory when we win. Sound good? Will you let me play with you?”

Likely.
