Woj didn’t tell the whole deal. Those contracts gotta match and by the time they match The deal looks lopsided.
Kawhi Leonard Going to the Clippers!!!!!
- Thread starter DAHITMAN
- Start date
Bomani Jones has a history of belittling people who disagree with him on Twitter, instead of, you know, maybe addressing their point, he'd be perfect for BGOL...
In the end, I think the Raptors are probably just happy with their 1 title that literally no one expected them to get and they decided not to go crazy with it... they would try to run it back if Kawhi stayed, but that was it... weren't going to blow up the cap to do it.
I don’t even think it’s the luxury tax. I’m not seeing what contracts would even match to get them to take on that deal. If Siakam gets 2.5 million......how do you come up with another 58 million in salary? Woj needs to clear that up before he have that city wanting to burn the team down.
I like him but yeah that asshole shit he does is annoying.
i mean....they probably didn't want Ibaka back so the only options would be Gasol and Lowry.. Lowry is making about the same as Westbrook this year but after the Derozen, no way they win a title and then trade Lowry.
and they got rid of DeMar's bad contract...to rebuild
Lowry and Gasol are up at the end of the year. They might keep Ibaka.
but Van Fleet, OG and Siakim aren't a bad core to start with
Something doesn't round right about it.... and Raptors don't even have the draft capital to even make that happen...and without the draft capital why would the Thunder want to do that? It's a weird proposal all the way around.
and they don't have one owner
They're corporate run...so Masai answers to multiple people
and like i was just saying above.. shipping out DeMar to win a title and then shipping out Lowry like that (to make contracts) to get Westbrook would be a bit much man..
I can’t believe people are still saying no way the Warriors would have KNOWINGLY sent KD out there injured like that. Like you said they did it to Boogie, Looney and Iggy straight up told everybody that they did it to him last year. They showed KD basically limping around every game and then all of a sudden when they are facing elimination he’s cleared to play with no restrictions!!
ah... I don't know shit about their ownership structure... yeah... you gotta have a special kind of owner to take on a deal like that
Naw I believe they had real sources......these guys use the same sources every time. They just didn’t know they was going up against a machine in Kawhi.
I’m saving that chart til the end of next season
I don't think Klay steps foot on the court during the regular season.
Their perimeter defense and depth is going to be ass in a Western conference that is much better. Warriors are going to be a 6th seed at the absolute best.
I don't know...I don't really care
I didn't want them to get Butler, Kyrie or D Lo overreacting to Kawhi going elsewhere . I don't think any of them are worth max money.
I would have rather them broken up the money anyway
Plus they're only doing short deals still...so they're tradeable and will have cap money soon
Yeah that’s bogus. I’m not buying it. Even with the analyst asked him to clarify he still didn’t lol. He actually said no to her question.
I think what the Lakers understand that my own team don’t is that you need to get capital. You need assets to trade. So overpaying did DLo is worthy of that. How else will the Lakers get what they need?
If anything goes wrong for the Warriors, they're going to be battling it out for a playoff spot. Kerr will need to really prove his coaching chops this year. As much as everyone focused on the offense, it was the defense that was the difference on this team. KD and Klay rated out as top on the ball defenders on the perimeter and then we all know what Iggy brings. All that is gone and not replaced. They're losing scoring but also gonna give up way more points and everyone what made the playoffs in the west last season got better instead of the thunder and the rockets.
I have a problem w/ almost everything on there...look how low POR is and how high ORL and TOR are
Overpaying a player isn't an asset.
Golden State were bidding against themselves. No other team was going to give him max money.
Bad contracts are hard to get rid of and become liabilities.
Look at all these 2016 contracts teams finally got rid of and are still trying to get rid of.
You have to hope a team becomes desperate...or you trade them for other bad contracts.
You have to count on teams having cap space and then get rid of draft picks to sweeten the deal.
I truly believe Kawhi was playing the fuck out of everyone to get his idea situation. and his whole "dont leak shit" stuff was to protect his desired deal. He played the shit perfectly.
So you agree fuck printing the truth lol then that's the end of that
and with iggy he was informed a week before the shit happened that IF kd left he might be traded.
so kd left...
You mean the same way teams fuck the players? He did what he had every right to do.
ya I already deleted it...it’s not even worth picking it apart...cats on here could do a much better job of determining positioning in both conferences
You must listen to the fucking pundits and thats how you shaped your opinion and that's why pundits are a dangerous thing.
When green cursed out durant they SUSPENDED GREEN we gonna forget that?
Looney played through pain and boogie did too as did everyone as does everyone how in the world is that a hit on them or an indictment on the warriors when players DO THAT on every team
Lebron's doctor came out and said he shouldn't have came back at all this year, his actual doctor did but no hit on a lakers training staff? lol
How was he treated fucked up please outline factual ways he was treated fucked up and not catered to on and off the court?
In the END he just wanted to go play with someone he could hang out with more in kyrie which is FINE and his right to I wish him nothing but success but we not gonna try and make it out to be they treated him badly when they didn't treat him badly at all..
Any contract can be dealt. Teams took on Conley and Tim Hardaway contract. These deals are only four years. Russell will be traded and traded for something to help the Warriors as opposed to trying to trade Kevin Looney ornsomeone.

To be fair they lost to the heat because Ibaka and Harden came up extra smedium deluxe. that's why they lost.
If harden and Ibaka played to near potential they'd have won but they played as bad as anyone ever has in the finals.
also Brooks does suck and they hired Brooks Jr to replace him
