    AEG Partners with NEW BALANCE?

    So, if one of Kyrie, Butler, Kemba, DLO or even Klay agree to sign with the Lakers immidiately, do we call off the meeting with Kawhi..?
    I can see Kawhi being the type of guy to take his time in Free Agency.
    Gonna be an intense Week.

    Agreed. If we had a verbal agreement with one of the max guys, then we probably are not in the hunt for Kawhi. Looks like we won't really know until mid to late next week.

    Guys, we have a verbal commitment from someone. Dudes don’t throw 4 million in the trash for nothing.

    Someone coming and the homie Kuz know.

    I’m glad we’re getting a meeting, but I hope it’s sooner than this. Free agency starts Sunday and we don’t even get a meeting until Tuesday? That could cost us Butler or some other handful of top free agents while waiting if Kawhi stays in Toronto or goes elsewhere.

    I read that he was meeting clippers on Tuesday, 7/2...which means he could be meeting us on Monday, 7/1. At least I hope we are meeting him that day?

    If I'm the Lakers though...you need to contact all your back-ups on Sunday, 6/30 and let them know you're super interested. That goes for role players as well as minimum players. We need to make sure we make contact with all these guys.

    sooooo...anyone else ready for ESPN to roll out the 'why would Kawhi want to come to the Lakers and play 2nd fiddle' narrative?

    They have already. I believe the actual narrative is not even 2nd fiddle though, it’s “3rd fiddle”, I think that’s what Rachel Nichols and Scottie Pippen were laughing about yesterday.

    If Kawhi signs, I am ready for the following to lead the entire offseason programming:

    “Is LeBron the NBA’s villain again?”
    “Is this worse than Durant joining Golden State?”
    “Are super teams ruining the league?”

    Then Skip Bayless:

    “MJ never needed this much help”
    “LeBron is option #3”

    Sidenote, the amount of “The Raptors won a title with one star” narratives is hysterical. Golden State’s entire team was on IR.

    Kawhi to the Lakers makes just too much god damn sense :)
    Perfect fit, perfect scenario, hometown player.
    We had one d****** (PG) f*** up the master plan, let's hope Kawhi is smarer than that.
    If we land him, we're overtaking C Bags pretty soon :)

    It's crazy to think we were aiming to get LeBron, PG13 and AD together and had PG just been SMARTER...we would have had that already. SIgh...

    Let's hope Kawhi is smart enough to see that it's going to be HIS team as soon as next year as LeBron continues to decline.
