    Because Stephen A said he would come to the Lakers OR Clippers, he just isn’t having fun in SA anymore. To my mind, if you see no distinction between the Lakers and Clippers as a franchise, as a winning culture, a history, a front office willing to win, there’s something wrong with your head. If you don’t care which team you come to, you just want to “be in LA”, yeah, I don’t like the sound of that. I know that Kawhi isn’t Dwight Howard, I’m exaggerating a little, my point was I don’t like the context of the word “fun” the way Stephen A said it. We have no idea who his sources are though, so I don’t take it as absolute fact.

    Spurs player development staff is as good as it gets. Kawhi had some very glaring limitations in his game; but they worked on his game; and credit to Leonard who worked just as hard, and he became one of the leagues' best.

    If Ingram does go to SAS, he will be a top 15 player in this league. IMO.

    The Clippers did this

    [​IMG]

    And then traded the guy. The Clippers DGAF, they have no loyalty. If you’re ok with coming to the Lakers OR the Clippers, again, I have to question your sanity and your basketball knowledge. The Clippers will NEVER win a thing. LA, Inglewood, Seattle, new owner, Jerry West, the story always ends the same.

    But some are big on "capping" careers from their armchairs of extremely talented, with the physical tools, very young players.

    Check Kawhi's first 3-4 seasons.
    BI has all the tools and work ethic to reach superstar leavel sooner rather than later. He's still young, fairly healthy and "cheap". Im a fan of our kids, can't help it

    I think Spurs are waiting for someone to beat the Lakers offer...the deal is already done basically.

    This should get wrapped up tonight or tomorrow morning.

    Yeah i feel you man but how much longer are we going to wait to be good again?

    The C Bags are going to be really good next year and likely in the finals...do you want them winning or do you want to prevent them from doing that?
