He’s gonna get traded before next season, watch. He’s got an opt out next summer.

I’m not saying we have what it takes to get him though.

Sounds like Leonard may end up missing the rest of the season. I know he has hardly played this year but it could still end up being a big factor on playoff positioning.

San Antonio for the playoffs!!!!!!

Finally get that matchup with the Texas Turncoat( for all you newbies, that is his official name on RC2.)

Watch him choke when he has to go against Dame and CJ in a playoff series.

Will be booed unmercilessly by the fans here, it will mess with his fragile psyche.

Will be great.

If he's choosing to sit out rather than play.... weird. But if we could pull him from SA I would literally run naked down Burnside shouting "carthago delenda est!"

Not that it matters but I wonder what an offer would loook like. Collins for sure would be included, but then we’d have to add salary to make it work. Aminu would be another obvious addition.

Fucking do it. A prime era Kawhi with Nurk and Dame! (bite index finger)

When we get him, film or you didn’t do it! :oldman:
 
I think there are maybe 10 guys the Spurs would take for Kawhi. The somewhat realistic trade for both teams because of their talent and contract situations might be Anthony Davis for Kawhi.

Yeah. Like it would ever really happen. The first thing he's going to do is request to go home to Cali.

Home is always nice. Leonard is a really quiet and unassuming guy though, and would probably feel at home here in Portland. I don't think he likes or needs the attention that comes with being on an LA team.

As much as I hate the Spurs, with Kawhi on our team.... STOP STOP! I CAN ONLY TAKE SO MUCH FANTASY!

Oh, it's pure fantasy. I know that. But it's a damned good fantasy!

Pop is probably just resting him until the playoffs....make you think he won't play and then BAM...and his backup is ready too
 
Collins and this years pick (so essentially 2 lottery picks) plus ET for Kawhi
That is a good deal if they value Collins and this deep draft.


That would leave
Dame, Napier
CJ, Pat
Kawhi, Hark, Jake
Aminu, Swanigan
Nurk, Davis, Meyers

Green font?

We probably won't be in the lottery this year. So that's one former lottery pick that made a so-so impression in his rookie season (sold on him but difficult to sell on another GM in my opinion) and a pick in the 18-20 range + one of the worst contract in the league.

Good deal for Portland. Sure. And for San Antonio?
 
I think Boston would trade Hayward, Smart, Rozier, and their LAL/SAC 1st for him, Green, and Mills, We couldn't beat that.

Irving / Brown / Kawhi / Tatum / Horford
That's nasty.

And if Anthony Davis became available this summer or in the future, they could flip Mills, Green, Tatum, and three 1sts for him.

Irving / Brown / Kawhi / Davis / Horford
That might be a better starting 5 than Golden State.

Boston will not trade Hayward. That would be a PR disaster and would make all free agents think twice before going there.

Just like it was a PR disaster to trade IT?

If it happened, he would be injured in his first game wearing a pin wheel uni. That is our luck.
 
The Spurs totally are tanking the wrong way.
