Well, they do need one. But Stephen A Smith is one of the sources that I would not trust under any circumstance.

Kawhi should watch his mouth. He'll be playing in a Pat Bev dominated league for the next four years.

Easy, just use some draft picks to trade for one.

Who can they realistically get?

Rubio, elfrid patron, dunn, rondo? Just a few names come to mind that can help them with playmaking not sure what they give up/willing to

How ironic.

The one missing piece for the Clippers is the player that they had to part ways with a few years ago whose also looking for a team he can compete with to finally win a ring.

Maybe they could get Derrick Rose from Detroit?

Contextually it would even make sense considering their needs, which makes it all the more ironic :lol: .

How about we'll join in and take PG in a three-team deal for Kuz, THT & the 28th pick.

He does everything privately behind his teammates back. Not just a bad teammate but who would want to be around a person like that? He was lucky to have been on two organizations with great culture and winning on their mind.

Passive aggressive Kawhi strikes again.

DJ Augustin seems like the best free agent for them.

In what way would you prefer he express his desire for the team to aquire a point guard? im confused. is he supposed to tell beverly to find one? or Woj? whats the alternative?

Even a guy like Tyus Jones would’ve worked wonders for them. They certainly didn’t need a high volume scorer such as Low Will around Kawhi and PG, for example. That team was doomed from the start.

talk to the team openly? Don't be a sneaky bitch? If beverly doesn't know his role he can **** right off. This is a team going for championship not a middle school cheerleading squad.There's millions and millions of dollars on the line. These are adults.

I wonder if there is a chance Lowry joins him or maybe even Van Vleet? The Raptors are at a crossroads.
