    I think you guys are reading it wrong: if Kawhi joins the Clippers he wants another max FA with him.

    Basically what's happening is the Clippers know their team isn't attractive enough alone to get Kawhi. They need another star to join. Either they've been told that straight up or they know it just based on our offer.

    This is good news, but also means the Clippers are still in it to an extent.

    I'm concerned they can't meet together. Like cops interviewing suspects separately to see how the stories confirm or deviate.

    Jeanie, "I love both of them, and Magic like a brother. Rob is great and doing a great job and just got frustrated that Magic wasn't around as often as he originally thought he would be, sometimes having to wait on moves needing an answer, and mentioned it out of that frustration. I knew up front what to expect because Magic did tell me he had his whole other world of businesses that he was not going to abandon."

    Magic, "I said what I said and I mean what I say. Rob's a backstabber."

    LT, "And I'm not kidding about not being able to see Magic backing off and putting this whole thing in CONTEXT."

    Magic would rather come in and look like the guy that sold Kawhi on joining the Lakers than the guy who ruined any chance. I'm not happy with Magic, but I'm not worried about him pouring more gasoline on this. His ego is too big and he wants that credit.

    Thanks for the props. But I was primed for this one. I worship Magic but he REALLY let me down with all that nonsense. The fact that he did it before free agency made it all the worse. So I was waiting to see if it was going to have a real world effect on the team’s future and it looks like it still might. It’s on him to clean this up and I guess we’ll know real soon if he pulls it off.

    Certainly Lakerfan will never trash that mural but I could definitely see Clipperfan hitting it. As @LaVarBallsDad is fond of saying, "Don't go getting attached to it"

    Stein was on the Ringer Podcast TWO DAYS AGO saying nobody knows anything about what Kawhi wants.

    I’m not so sure about that. I wouldn’t want to be the Clippers fan that got caught defacing that in an area full of hardcore Lakers fans. They might prefer getting hauled away by the cops to whatever happened to them in that case.

    I'm getting so f***ing tired of the s*** ESPN's shoveling. First, Kawhi doesn't want to team up. Wants to beat em not join em. Ok, I can respect that and kind of expected he'd be that type of cat. Then he does want to team up anyone anywhere but with the Lakers. I'm honestly surprised they haven't floated team up ideas with him going to the Cavs.

    If he's teaming up, nothing competes with our team up option.

    Haven't seen this much scrambling since watching Vick in his prime.

    Someone is going to mess it up. It might even be some stupid teenager Laker fan, because it'll be cool and stuff (insert something hip there).

    THIS. My buddies were fretting over this on our Lakers chain and I had to step in to point out that in the time it took me to take a s***, it went from Kawhi and KD on the Clippers to Kawhi and Butler. Just because the Clippers are flailing and the reality of their misery is finally setting in among the top brass there, it doesn’t mean the media need to follow suit. At this point i’m not even sure why I want Kawhi on this team more: to win championships, or to shut all these imbecilic journalists up.

    If we get Kawhi, I will believe Rob Pelinka's Kobe/Ledger story

    Hi everyone,

    Remember the a lot of the pro-Clipper media is being orchestrated. Notice how every time the Lakers gain traction the Clippers suddenly pop back into the news. AEG is pretty sure this isn't a coincidence! The Clippers are pretty desperate here folks, especially since all the big time FAs are likely looking elsewhere at this point!

    If Ballmer ever wants to win a title, he needs to change the name of the team to the Sonics and move them to Seattle. No one wants to join the second team in a market with a fan base the size of Nickleback's. Seattle has plenty of attractive offerings for players as a city. This should be a no-brainer.
