Yeah, idk what happened her. Last think I heard she was fucking a girl pornstar and freeloading off her cuck producer boyfriend who is fat and probably doesn't even fuck her.
The Lakers can delay the trade and extend the max cap space wIndow. Maybe it’s a test of loyalty for the Lakers to negotiate this delay. I don’t know. Kawhi is fucking crazy.
Nicholas Martin
Why would anyone wake up that early when they don't have to? I get up at noon on the weekends.

Jayden Watson
twitter.com/getnickwright/status/1147232475808182272 If Kawhi doesn’t decide by Sunday, he could be de facto eliminating the Lakers from the running because they can only sign him BEFORE they trade for Anthony Davis, and I’d imagine the Pelicans/Hawks expect that deal to get done by the end of this weekend at the latest.

I'm worried about some of you. How will you deal with the Lakers signing Kawhi? You are very rapidly running out of reasons to live
What's up with summer league this year? Almost no lottery pick player has suited up for there respective teams. No darius no JA no culver. Are zion and rj even playing tonight?

bro i tried to watch the new AoT season but damn am i lost with plot after 2 years without watching this shit, all this political shit is giving me a headache
It only makes sense for Kawhi to take a 5 year if he doesn't want to be on the Raptors
If he wants the supermax he needs to stay on the Raptors, take a 2 year, then will be eligible for the super max.
If Kawhi doesn't want to risk waiting on the supermax and just wants a long term deal regardless because his health concerns, then the Raptors still can offer him more money than anyone on any max deal due to having his bird rights.
Drake will get Kawhi tons of money outside the NBA.

>tfw broke my nose playing ball the other day Should I cop a headband and a mask and put some fake carbon fiber stickers on it so I can walk into the gym tonight looking like Dark Knight Lebron? Sixers are at the very least going to be fantastic on defense and rebounding. As long as Harris' 3pt threat stays credible (bonus: if they sign some more shooters), Simmons will be having a field day throwing lobs to the bigbois and getting jrich and toby open looks rest, ice, compress, elevate. take some ibuprofen to reduce swelling
Lakers needed Kawhi to sign as soon as free agency was allowed so they could fill out the roster with players willing to take min. contracts. Now the pool is so dry they're signing guys like Dudley and would be lucky to get the good Moris twin on a MLE, then they still have 3-4 other spots after that.

Also if Kawhi signs after July 6th the AD deal will need to be scraped because they can't have both anymore. It's one or the other.
Grayson Williams
is it possible for LA to sign Kawhi after the 6th? This would then lead the Lakers FO to nix the AD trade leading to a roster of the young core, 4th pick Hunter, LeBron, Kawhi, but no AD (2020 FA anyway)

Coco Gauff is the reason you're not getting a Kawhi decision today. She's also sponsored by New Balance and they don't want to upstage her.
Bench: Caruso/Quinn Cook Danny Green Kuzma KCP Daniels Iggy Marcus Morris Boogie(?)
Remember that the Raptors only even made the ECF because of a lucky bounce. If Kawhi stays with Toronto, it's far from certain that they even make the finals, whereas it's a pretty safe bet with the Lakers
mostly because people and cultures are different and shit that works in one place might not necessarily work in another. There's also usually a reason why things are done in a certain way and that shouldn't just be tossed out unless the new way is better

The Lakers literally only need 3-and-D guys like Green and 3pt specialists like Korver to fill out the rest of their roster. AD and LeBron will draw up so much attention that the 4th or 5th guy on the floor will get wide open shots.
Does that give you an excuse to off topic shitpost?

Kawhi will wait for the deadline to announce his decision

you need both sides, and the raptors don't win it all unless they're exploding offensively. lowry played his life out, he's never played that well before and he probably won't again. siakam, gasol, they all put up incredible offensive career performances that will be almost impossible to replicate. they got hot, they rode the wave. kawhi was great but he doesn't win as easily without the other starting 4 all playing beyond their means
>Rondo rondo wasn't a fan of Lakers management, although since they ended up with AD and are the favorites to land Kawhi they clearly did something right. In any case, he definitely liked playing with Lebron (and previously AD) and would thrive with so many scorers to dish to. I fully expect him to resign. >Boogie if he continues not to get offers he likes, we already know that he's willing to ringchase for a year in hope of a payday next summer. signing cousins would be mutually beneficial >KCP how is this at all unlikely? like cousins he's in need of a chance to prove himself. plays decent defense and can hit the 3. also the manna would be coming from Rich Paul, not God >Green reportedly he's considering following Kawhi wherever he goes, and could very well sign for the Lakers' MLE >cook he's not a superstar, but he's young and can play good minutes with career 42% 3pt shooting to provide spacing and quick points. They could even play him at 2 when they're resting Kawhi
even if Green goes elsewhere, Daniels is also an absolute 3pt sniper, so Lebron and Rondo will have plenty of outside threats to space out the defense and get open looks when one of the stars draws a double team. AD pick and rolling with Kawhi, Lebron, and all the shooters would be all but impossible to guard also. load management is made easier since Dudley and AD can both play 4/5 and Kuzma can play big minutes
Goddamn after this last year igoudala is 100% getting black balled

Siakam, Van Vleet, Powell, and Anunoby will only get better bro. It’s a 2peat for sure with Kawhi.

He’d be good for my Spurs honestly, can give you LA’s production but the ball wont stick with him and he’s a better shooter. I’d sign Cousins, bank on improving him defensively or having to hit the reset button as a franchise, then flip LA to LA.

Team owners wanted a bigger share of the money, arguing that they were losing money (kek), and there was a lockout to get the players to acquiesce to giving them a chunk of their money.
It won't happen again anytime soon. There's so much money in the NBA right now that nobody wants to rock the boat. The players are getting fucked in terms of percentage of revenue, but they earn a fucking fortune, especially since the TV deal, that they don't see the point in fighting over an extra 5-10%.
If cord-cutting leads to a drop in NBA revenue then expect it to happen again.
