    Eh. We're on the ride now. Let's let it play out. No use in freaking out when we don't have all the information.

    Does anyone know if Kawhi is actually in Toronto?
    That will be the big tell

    This is following the script exactly by what was reported. He was going to meet with each team and that this wouldn't be resolved until mid-week. If he is meeting with Toronto then he is right on the timeline that was reported... and also giving them the last shot.

    The flight to Toronto from LA is not bad at all. So, it makes sense that he would just fly up there. Kawhi seems like a very respectful person. Plus, I'm sure he wants to get out of LA for this meeting since everyone seems to be hounding him here.

    I still stand by my opinion that Kawhi will be a Laker.

    Guys, I can't pretend to know where Kawhi is going to play next season but it's hard for me to imagine a more trivial tell than "these two guys were in a hotel this morning."

    I don't think its a tell. He has a home up there, maybe a rental but a place he lived, and has stuff up there. He may take their offer, or he may take an LA offer and then start packing up his stuff. His business in Canada is not restricted to this meeting.

    Last word was all the meetings were in LA when did that change? That is a huge tell if everything is switched to Toronto.

    I could have sworn other high profile Free Agent(s) had their meetings with respective teams in a hotel.

    Either way, we can't control his decision I am refreshing Twitter (like everybody else), and while I am disappointed if he doesn't come, by all accounts, we should be a better basketball team next season, which is all that matters.

    That was my understanding. There never was a location specified.

    I’m speculating on location based on the hotel vid.

    I'm just as lost on all this as you guys.

    I have no idea if he even met with us or met with the clippers or is even meeting with toronto!

    I've honestly never seen anything like this. It's crazy. It's really crazy.

    I just hope VEGAS isn't wrong because they usually get it right...they had it right with AD the whole way.

    In this clip from Monday, Cris Carter said Kawhi & his team were going to meet with the Lakers & Clippers Monday & Tuesday, then they'd "reconvene and go to Toronto". (This tidbit is the last 10 seconds of this clip.)

    It's tough to decipher if he's referring to Toronto the franchise or literally Toronto the city, but that could be the explanation. I don't know. Not too stressed about it. We've made our pitch, and it's a strong one.
