They could acquire q Pon and Solomon hill to replace those two guys and still be the second best team in the nba. That’s how good James is and that’s how good Chris is.

Does Kawhi to Toronto make it easier for lakers to trade for him? Raptors in for a mini rebuild and probably not as stubborn as Pop

If kahwi doesn't perform at 100% then Lakers could get him in December.

That’s what I would think.

Kawhi and Green is a nice haul though

Lakers are big winners today.

Supermax is off the table.

Raptors will be willing to trade Leonard to the Lakers.

Lakers can trade expiring contracts and Kuzma for Leonard half way through the season.

I’d rather just keep everyone and make a run at him with cap space imo

So is it safe to assume that Kawhi just won't get traded and will stay with San Antonio. I've been expecting everyday to get that ESPN update on my phone of the big trade. Right about now I've really begun to lose interest though.

Well, obviously I spoke too soon. Like only a few hours too soon.

Woj:

Celtics GM Danny Ainge and Happy Walters, the agent for restricted free agent guard Marcus Smart, are now seriously engaged in contract talks, league sources tell ESPN. Potential deal range is in the four-year, $46M-$50M range, sources tell ESPN. Talks ongoing.

Not a bad deal for the Celtics in the $11-12.5 million range. Contract could be a solid trade asset down the line as well.

They will probably be the 1 or 2 seed in the east. I assume they will just go for it.

Yeah. If I'm the Lakers, I'd do Kuzma and expirings for Kawhi right now.

The Raptors can win the East with Kawhi, Lowry, Green and the remainder of their core. They have no incentive to cash out.

This is a calculated gamble to try to make the Finals this year and convince Kawhi to stay.

Magic/Lebron vs Jerry West will be a cute little recruiting battle next summer imo

I don't think even Toronto believes they can convince him to stay. They were never winning with what they had. So they've put it all on this year with no more Lebron. Next summer will be interesting to see what they do

Well deserved, Blakeney. Hopefully he can become a Lou Williams type with more development
