    I don't think it's Kyrie. He said the Kyrie comment before he told everyone to watch Get Up tomorrow. His Kyrie comment was based off a guess regarding his new agency. Why would he tell everyone via Twitter to tune into Get Up for a big announcement......that he just gave via the very same media (Twitter) the day before? He's gonna say Kawhi. Do I believe Damon Jones? Not in the least. But he's gonna put his cred out there on Kawhi.

    He'd be most team's first option, but he'd be fourth here. He probably signs someplace that can make him the unquestioned leader and focal point.

    I don't know why but I keep asking myself why the hell would Kawhi go to the Clippers. It's the Clippers. Also, wouldn't common sense say he wants to play with Anthony Davis for the next decade? Kawhi is 27 and AD is 26. With their unselfish, mild mannered personalities, they would rule the NBA for a decade. Lebron is only gonna be in LA for 3 more years. If I am Kawhi's agent, I'm telling him, look, you will win at least a couple titles in the next 3 years with Lebron, than when you turn 30, you will have at least 5 more years of ball with AD. How do you pass that up? To play for the Clippers and leather face? It doesn't make sense.

    Anyone know if the Hornets want to sign him? I haven't heard anything about what Charlotte wants to do there.

    nothing substantial but if your only star player says hes willing to take less to stay, wouldn't you be obligated to resign him? cha got no shot at stars besides drafting

    If Kemba wants to stay in Charlotte, he will likely be off the table within hours of the beginning of the free agent period. If he runs the tour around the country, he could be coaxed into leaving.

    I thought he said something to the effect he wanted to stay if the team was upgraded to have a chance?

    Since this is all in fun, I voted for who I wanted most. That would be Kawhi. Who knows?
