    I have a reaallllly good feeling about this fam! I just hope we don't give up too much. Either way, Kawhi coming back is huge for us! We essentially have a PG contingency if he does end up waffling and staying in OKC and Kawhi all but locks up Bron coming here. With a Kawhi deal we also will swap out cap (George @30M as a free agent vs Kawhi @20M with some salary swapping out) and some of our roster depth, so you know more moves are to come (ie ring chasers filling out the rest of our capspace).

    Btw, this is why Woj is biased against the Lakers....they seem to give all their tips to Shams.

    Also here are some details as to how Kawhi's contract details would like under different scenarios.

    Damn it, stay put. Bring Bron and George. Ingram is a beast in the making on a team fiendly deal and Kuzma can be a realy great player.

    1. We NEED to get rid of Deng first, unless he’s part of the package which isn’t likely unless a 3rd team is involved.

    2. With that said, we’re not trading our core unless it’s a sign (extension) and trade.

    All which will probably take place AFTER the draft when we know what our assets are.

    Different tone from Ramona and Woj compared to Shams.

    Shocker. It’s Indy all over again, teams hate us, they have history of us dominating them and don’t want to be part of making it happen again, and they don’t, especially in San Antonio and other small markets, want to give into stars demands.

    yeah at this point if Kawhi's camp doesn't escalate this to contacting Boston, 76s, etc and tell them "we promise there will be no extension with you" he's going elsewhere or staying with the Spurs until the deadline then sent elsewhere for cheap just to spite us.

    Randle / Zubac package with picks and keep everyone else? Could that work. Hart?

    I hate this. But if we could keep Lonzo, BI and Kuz (hopefully Hart) this would be the least painful way for me to lose Randle. Goes to TX he and Pop like each other, close to home etc. And we get Leonard.

    We've been waiting a while now, so we should be getting great things.

    Kawhi would be great but honestly I’m actually hoping we roll with LeBron, PG and the kiddos. That team can win. I feel it in my bones! We’d have to give up too much for Kawhi because the Spurs do not want to work with us.

    I’m not really expecting a lot tonight, drafting one nice player would be good, and a Deng dump would be a fantastic surprise.

    So the only way to get to the discussion table will be if Kawhi comes out and says he won't resign anywhere but here.
