If SA aren't talking to 20-25 teams, they aren't doing their job.

Teams are probably scared about Kawhi saying he'll only re-sign in LA

Reporters are being utter clickbait and raking it in as much as possible at this point.

but yeah, at the end of the day Spurs and Lakers are both desperate and they don't really have a choice but make a deal with each other. Lakers will probably have to give up a little more than they need to in order to get this done by Friday

Kawhi's a little creepy at this point. I feel like there is no convincing that he'll change his mind and stay (either with the Spurs or non-Laker teams) so Spurs won't get that good of an offer from non-Laker teams. Kawhi could easily say "oh my quad actually doesn't feel too good after all hehe" and sit out another szn. he's got those crazy eyes chalms

I for one think that Kawhi is an upstanding citizen with impeccable character

If Spurs end up trading with the Saltics, I hope they get some solid pieces back. Only to see Kawhi leave Boston for LA the following year. I'm okay with this Mos
