    Probably not new info, but Stephen A said on first take that the Spurs want Kuzma, Ingram, Hart, and 3 first round picks for Kawhi. Said Kuzma is NOT happening, so the Spurs are out of their minds. He said maybe Ingram and Hart and A 1st round pick. Also mentioned it might have been better to not renounce Randle and use him and Ingram in the trade, but my guess is the Spurs didn’t want Randle or that would have been rumored at least once, and it hasn’t been.

    Smart players see what playing with Lebron does to their career. One call to Kyrie has other players terrified. Millions are at stake here. You don't want to play with a narcissistic douche that demands everything, wants everyone to bow down, gets the coach fired, and calls his supporting cast kid.

    FU LLLLLLebron. We don't want to play with you.

    --Other NBA Players. (Probably)

    As long as Kawhi doesn't pull a Paul George, Lakers are safe.

    Most 20 year olds shouldn't be in the NBA

    but it also says if your pop don't chill, you're replaceable with an experienced veteran and former NBA champ.

    For probably a dozen reasons that don't have to do with LeBron.

    Ingram, Deng, 2 1st rounders.

    Anything else and you walk away laughing at the fact that SAS is choosing to miss out on a special talent in BI, and gifting you the opportunity to team Ingram with Leonard and Lebron next summer.

    LOL. The Spurs are clearly confused. They are trying to trade a Leonard who has asked out, has a mystery injury, and is on a 1 year expiring deal. They somehow think they’re trying to trade prime Kobe or LeBron locked up on a 5 year deal.

    I know that. I read and saw that quote. I'm all for it. Competition and getting Zo to show more of those competitive juices will pay dividends in the future. For better or for worse Rondo will get it out of him.

    So the Spurs believe the offers will be better in February than they are in July? I don't see it. Especially if Kawhi won't play for the Spurs.

    Teams will be receiving a Kawhi Leonard in February who hasn't played in 1 1/2 years. No training camp. No chemistry with his new teammates. The price will only go down. This summer, his new team will have the benefit of training camp to shake off the rust and build chemistry.
