lol and people were seriously crapping their pants because of the rumors of LeBron/Kawhi in Philly. Some of us tried to tell y'all it wasn't going to happen.

Zaschrona wrote:My take from this: Kawhi now likely going to be traded to Lakers. Cousins is not going to reject an opportunity to play with him and LeBron and Magic is surely going for that superteam. Potentially also good for our long-term chances to get Anthony Davis. Also could be really nice to see Phila to strike out.

Something tells me Cousins is just going to look for the most money, and I'm not sure LA can offer him that.

A lakers Celtics final would be epic. He needs more to get there.

Gonna be hard with the contract he’s getting. Lakers wanna get another big star. They might sacrifice a bench.

No way LeBron is signing on to play with Lonzo and Kuzma, or even Boogie if they land him. They may have to overpay after landing LeBron, but Kawhi will be a Laker.

A lineup of Ball/KCP/Ingram/LeBron/Lopez (lol) isn't lasting long in the West playoffs.

I think it is either Philly or Boston for Kawhi. Spurs should not make their rival stronger.

Leonard needs to sign long term if he’s coming here.

The Spurs basically get to hang the Lakers by the balls all year until they get the god package. Interesting.

Spurs still slow-playing it as they should.
Someone tell Danny to give in and hand them Rob Williams already if that's the hold-up.

I'm waiting for Kawhi to officially land in LA before I start bumping things I may regret. :devil:

Now I want Kawhi to Boston though. LA's gonna be desperate to find a Lebron partner and will probably blow their capspace. Increases the chances we can re-sign Kawhi if Lakers can't sign him outright.

Yep, or maybe the Spurs will just take the lesser pack Danny may be offering for a deal without extension
