I disagree. I think most people will agree with you.

Yeah, I'd only give up one of the two if I was Boston. I said last year that Jaylen is going to be a poor man's Kawhi. Jaylen is already fantastic defensively, I just don't know if he will score it consistently. He's got a great work ethic though and he's already come a long way. He's been my favorite young player to follow on and off the court.

Celtics have the ammo in picks to add as well though. They are built to make any kind of deal the Spurs want if they decide they want Kawhi and the Spurs are set on dealing him. Rozier is a nice young piece not on the level of Tatum or Brown they could theoretically include. If Boston decides they want him I think they will be able to land him while keeping one of Brown or Tatum

i think it all comes down to were lebron goes. if lebron goes to LA or philly then i think it will be hard for them to get him without both. if he goes to houston, then i think they can

Boston would be dumb to include both. Only one should be traded and they will try to trade brown before Tatum.

The market needs to be jacked up though. Lakers likely can do that as sign and trade Randle with some combination or hart/ingram/ball/kuzma

Ultimately, San Antonio will be smart enough to send him in the east and nab a future star wing from Boston.

No way if I am the Celtics. Two future all stars for one aging all star is bad business.

Additionally, Kwahi is very shy and introverted. The Boston media and fans would force him into early retirement.

Not a good trade at all.

It was never gonna be Houston. Just as we said months and months ago.

He isn’t wanted there by James and Chris. Stephen A was in Houston for the game Sunday and reported on Monday that Houston wasn’t interested in blowing up the team to pursue Lebron. That was the nice way of James and Chris and them saying “we are good thanks but no thanks”.

and kawhi is only about to turn 27 and is the finished product of what brown and tatum can hopefully be. you trade both but the spurs will probably also want a draft pick on top



Does anyone think they can rely on Kawhi at this point? This entire year has been a gigantic red flag.

Rozier, Semi, and Yabu are all promising young guys who could be included. Might would have to send Rozier to a third team though since SA already has Murray.

Stephen A was in the CC and spoke directly with James or Chris. Then relayed the message to the masses the next day. if James and cp3 need Lebron to win a title their legacy takes a massive massive hit. They know that. They may play with Lebron five years down the road. But now. Nope. Don’t need him to have the best record in the L and best offense ever recorded.

If Kwahi gets traded, which is a BIG if, they will never get what fans think they should get.

Right now Kwahi and his uncle have destroyed his reputation.

Who wants that headache? Or why give equal value, which is why I don't see him getting traded.

well if they don't win before lebron has the opportunity to even go there, then their legacies have already taken the hit...

Does Demarcus cousins' injury play a role in what is happening with kawhi?

I honestly think so.
