Kawhi free agency - I'll be very surprised if he stays in Toronto............

[homie1975]

Hope he doesn’t sign with Lakers. This would be Heat 2.0 but just 10x better.

last two "superteams" only got 2 titles each. Warriors after KD signed got 2 titles. Heat big three got 2 titles.

i will Lakers superteam MAX 2 rings together. Lebron body will break down. AD will follow suit.

[Cuse0323]

All I heard all playoffs was that he was carrying Tor all by himself.

Not from me.

No one ever won alone. Even the 04 pistons, 06 heat, and 2011 mavs, all needed multiple scoring threats. I don't blame kawhi either way. He is still my favorite son no mattervwgat he does.

Just kidding. If he signs w raptors or Lakers. Phukk him. I will root against like crazy and it will work

He won’t be alone regardless of where he goes, but sounds like he wants some big names to roll with. Sorry Siakam, just not gonna make the cut. This move is softer than KD.

BREAKING NEWS JUST IN!!!

Nothing has been determined yet ..


In other news the Lakers could pick up 2 dinosaurs in Ellis and Stoudemire if the Leonard deal doesn't go through.. lol..

I hope he signs with the lakers. He deserves it and already got toronto a champuonship. Sign with where you want to live. Nobody can hate him for that.

[thomorino]

It seems like the fact nothing is leaking favors Toronto, its hard to believe the Lakers could keep anything quiet, Kawhi is a different kind of guy obviously though.

[Jayvegas420]

Last chance to bet the Raps at these odds. Tomorrow they will be odds on favourites.
Book it.

KD went to a 73 win team and he had zero titles

Kawhi has won elsewhere and would be coming home to his birthplace

Very different than KD decision.

Broussard sources have him believing it's 90% Lakers. Someone is talking.

ZERO coming from clippers

I could see Kawhi going either place although I likely think he stays in Toronto, Broussard is a clown though, my guess is he has shit sources as usual.

[asiagambler]

There was one LA beat writer saying Clippers. He's basically a fraud though

broussard was one of the first to break news that Lebron was going to Miami in 2010 and KD was going to GS in 2016.

Anyone that has to join LeBron is weak. He knows he got lucky in Toronto and doesn’t want that burden. He gets to walk away and look like a saint, while he joins another three headed monster that was put together. The Warriors drafted great, and all KD did was join up with a squad. He didn’t have to recruit, or wait for trades, or any of the bullshit that LeBron teams are built on.

Golden State was built through the draft with smart decisions. They added one guy. He signed in free agency with no drama. He was loyal to OKC, but Russ is a bitch and they botched the situation with Harden. Nothing wrong with his decision. Nothing wrong with Kawhi going home either. Just soft to go to the Lakers, and not the Clippers.

Player's Tribune may break the news

[jjgold]

We will see if Leonard a pussy

[Smoothieopath]

Is there an online bookie offering this prop of whether he’ll stay?

[homie1975]

props were up for weeks but now they are probably gone

[JIBBBY]

The longer he waits the more likely he will be staying in Toronto. He's milking it so he's probably staying. Looking for odds now..

[MiDNiTe]

If he staying why not just say it while he's in Toronto, the longer he takes means he's thinking about leaving but probably feels bad since Toronto treated him real good

[rm18]

Even with Kawhi they are not better than Phila, too many aging players.

some dude in this thread reported this morning the plane left toronto and landed in CA already. of course we do not know if Kawhi was in that plane or not. but the guy in here reported it as if he has a cam tracking the plane or something

[homie1975]

phila lost Jimmy Butler and JJ Redick. phila is getting worse

[asiagambler]

Sixers got Josh Richardson, much better defender than Redick and only slightly worse 3 pt shooter. Losing Butler hurts but his talents not really maximized in Brown's system. If Simmons can improve his range just a little, I'd say they can be just as good as last year.

No one's going to put up odds this close to a decision but here's a fun prop from bovada about who will break the news.





No idea if it's still up or how much odds changed but I'd lean towards Cris Carter or a "Field" bet if they have one.

Yeah I thought 6ers did really well great trade, with butler being a locker room cancer and being a old fart back end of the max contract to get Richardson was sweet

no Chris Broussard.......hmmmmmmmmm

[homie1975]

per cris carter NO decision today ROTFLMFAO

[thomorino]

It looks like Carter doesn't know as much as he thinks he does since he was so sure Kawhi would make a decisions today, good news for raptors fans.

[homie1975]

bad news for raptors fans because he says Kawhi is looking for long term contract and i don't think he will stay in Toronto for 5 years.

if it's true he is only looking at 4 or 5 year contracts, then the lakers and clippers have to feel better now.

[lakerboy]

No one knows anything. These talking heads have no idea. Leonard might just retire

[homie1975]

i will be VERY surprised if he signs a 5 year contract with Toronto. very surprised. 2 years or a 1 and 1 i can see, but not 5 years.

[thomorino]

broussard was one of the first to break news that Lebron was going to Miami in 2010 and KD was going to GS in 2016.

If you guess a hundred times you'll be right a couple, I've never been impressed with him.

[thomorino]

i will be VERY surprised if he signs a 5 year contract with Toronto. very surprised. 2 years or a 1 and 1 i can see, but not 5 years.

I'd be surprised if he signs a normal 4-5 year deal with Toronto, but I'm sure the Raptors could give him a 4-5 years deal with the last 2-3 years being player options, so he has the guarantee if he's hurt but isn't locked in.

[jjgold]

still waiting

fuk

Still can’t figure out why the hell he wouldn’t wait for the long term deal? Concerns he gets hurt all I can think of.

I’ve heard various theories as to why he waiting, again nobody knows but I heard one that sounded reasonable and would bode well for your clippers. According to whomever it was (I forget) he thinks Leonard only wants to do clippers if they bring in another star so he trying to give west time to make something happen. So if clippers manage to pull some kind of deal to bring someone else in might see Kawhi follow. Made as much sense as anything else to me.
