Interesting that a one day old account received the PM. You must've made quite the impression in the last day to be lucky enough to get a PM. Or maybe you're just another one of BDE's accounts?


lol you can think whatever you want, like I said before, I've been lurking since the Bargnani days and never joined until now because BDE and Gianni13 hoodwinking everyone was pissing me off and I wanted to call attention to the mods. Gianni got banned which was good because he was obviously trolling but BDE PM'd me as a gesture of good will after our arguments and offered me the info through PM. He was a real stand-up guy about it and the info was shockingly solid and thorough, so **** it. Now I've got his back until some news dictates otherwise. Innocent until proven guilty and all that.

The reason bde apparently didnt want to expose his report in the thread was because his source didnt want this to go public and let it get out. Yet he risks this by pming you, a one day account as a "gesture of good will?" :lol: ok there buddy
:crazy:

I really don't see the benefit of Kawhi signing with the Lakers (yes I know it's his right).

Any championship won would be a LeBron James championship and he would be a footnote in history.

Any blame that happens (especially in January when James experiences his mood swings) would be blamed on AD and Kawhi.

Really think KL should really avoid the drama.

Playing with two other top 5 players is not something any other team can offer.

That's definitely a positive.

Also playing with a very limited roster.

They'll get some bronsexuals and ring chasers on vet minimums and if he really is set on LA the win now potential is way higher on the lakers

Edit : I agree the optics look terrible. Creating a superteam seems out of his character. But none of us really know him and maybe the fit is right for him and he's going to do what's best for him. I'm still hopeful he signs for a few years

Let's be real tho... What other superstar would even consider leaving a team after winning a championship? I don't even think KD, AD or Lebron would leave. Hell, I don't think it's ever happened in any sport? Anybody know of the best player on a team leaving after winning a chip?

Why would he want that? He was the best player on a team that just won it all and has a chance to do it again. The competitor in anyone would want to repeat that. Not go to a cushy situation where at best he gets a third of the credit and at worst most of the blame.

Not to mention much more money here, bigger contract, bigger market, only superstar etc.

Seems like a no brainer to me but then again this is my perspective and not Kawhis. Hopefully he makes the logical and right decision :D

Dude may wants to play in front to family and friends, it is easier with Lakers or Clips. Also, is his dad a Lakers fan? If he is so close to his dad, he will like to join to make is pop up there happy...
