Like I said on the general board, I'll eat my hand if he goes to the Clippers.

Why do you want a 42 year old Vince Carter to replace Kawhi Leonard on the Raptors, this bad? :dontknow:

Who the hell said replace. Just suggested him to bandwagon folks in place

There jumping off when kawhi leaves

One LeBron statistic that get' missed is the franchise's state after he's finished his parasitic term.

Ist time CLE followed by 4 years of misery
MIA- 5 years of misery, clouds just starting to clear
2nd time CLE in 2nd year of misery, maybe 3-4 more to go.

LA AD welcome to your Kevin Love moment. Our cupboard is kinda bare food to feed you.
Everybody is losing their freaking minds. Nutbars and wingnuts have infested this forum. We've become a public lavatory without cleaning staff.

He played for Doc, who would not be above telling Perk to blast that the meeting went very well.

"oh no I am unsettled because he didnt sign right away. I have no patience for a guy who wants to make the best decision for his career. No meetings took place yet but why didnt he sign already!!' - you


I think where me and you differ, is that I think winning a ring with a team that literally did everything they could to protect your health means something.

So I understand why we don't see eye-to-eye.

that doesnt mean he shouldn't explore other opportunities but whatever i dont care to discuss this


Then why @ me?

FWIW, as a Clipper fan, I've never heard of this guy until recently and have no idea how credible he is.


Clippers culture is so sane. What happened to the Lakers? Is Jeannie flying that storied franchise into the ground or what? Someone went nuts over there with fake news. Brontourage?

So if both the Lakers and Clippers meeting is out of the way.....that Means Masai and the Raps up next.

It's Masai's time

Rooting hard for Kawhi to re-sign with you guys.
F the Lakers and Clippers.

I think if he does resign with the Raptors it would be on a 1+1 contract, with the 2nd year being a player option.

Perkins has been in our camp constantly so he is one voice I give the time of day. He isn't trying "Son" us like Bron in the immortal words of NormGod.

So why are the Knicks considered a joke of a Franchise now, but the Lakers are still this glorious one? Masai knows how to build a winning team and stable organization, hopefully Kawhi sees this as Kawhi is living in the here and now and not 15 years ago and does not get swayed by past Lakers glory he had no part in, then current Raptor glory he had a big part in.

WTF.

Last 18 years Knicks have 1 playoff series win

Lakers have 4 championships and 6 finals appearance in that stretch even without making playoffs last 6. Years

Never even compareable


I've never understood this whole "NY is the center of the basketball universe" crap. There are two franchises that matter in the NBA...the Lakers and the Celtics. The Knicks have done literally nothing in the NBA compared to those two teams and yet, they're the "Meca". It's just NY media BS.

What a time to be alive.

Now today my friends is the day you’ll hear
“And the Clippers have gained an advantage!”

And none of that matters. Because, they don’t know like I know.

Masai is a legend! And what a presentation it’s going to be. Like no other I heard!

He stay. He come.

Butler was their best player by far in that series. He didn’t “distract” Embiid into being sick, he didn’t distract Simmons from being able to hit a shot and he didn’t distract Tobias Harris into being a complete non-factor.

This is from experience too, Just enjoy that Kawhi meeting. Don't let anyone take it away from your offseason!

When a voice of reason to a Raptors fan is an ex-football player and Butch Carter's brother...you know we are close to rock bottom.

Except he's got the same management team as Kawhi and has been dead on for most of the year. I trust his word over any other of these so called "Insiders".
