Re: 2019 Offseason Thread

AD had the Clippers on his list.

Jimmy did too, right?

So AD, Jimmy and Kawhi and that’s within the last year.

December? What about April?

Basketball no longer existed after December for Lebron Fans.

Jimmy did.. AD said all 29 teams, and Kawhi will barely even tell us his name much less a list.

Porzingis too.

Also had the Nets, Raptors, and Heat, which adds back to Areo's point about stability being favorable. We'll see what's real in July.

What do you mean? I'm referring to a healthy Lakers team that Kawhi would presumably be added to. There wasn't a healthy Lakers team in April.

Re: 2019 Offseason Thread

Just for the record, I'm with you OJ.

A healthy Lakers team is better than a healthy Clippers team last year. Kawhi with a healthy Lakers team would be a tougher go than a healthy Clippers team with Kawhi.

And that's literally all I'm saying.

There are ton's of reasons for Kawhi to chose the Clippers over the Lakers however, I think that's obvious with everything going on in Laker world right now. From top to bottom like 23 said. But on the floor I don't even see how someone could argue against that. Any team with LeBron+Kawhi is an instant contender next season.

Re: 2019 Offseason Thread

As far as im concerned we were talking about what Free Agents should consider when looking to join a team this summer and specifically LA.

From top to bottom the Clippers look better. More competent management, a ticked off Jerry West, a better coach, a group of guys who play for each other and consistently play defense, max cap space slots, and a richer owner who wants to win.

Nobody is stupid at thinking that's a better opportunity. Injuries happen, Clippers had injured players too, and even had trash Avery Bradley playing big minutes half the season.

That I'm not arguing against, none of it.

If yall wanted to know how that protest went

Re: 2019 Offseason Thread

Right.

Same thing with the Clippers once they got CP3. Guys were looking to get in over there with that squad as well. And that was even despite have Donald Sterling as Owner.

Who was trying to go to the Clippers like that?

Re: 2019 Offseason Thread

I mean, no player is ever gonna say "I would love to play for ___" if they aren't already on the team. I've never heard a player say "I'm on the Celtics but I'd love to play for the Lakers/Knicks/Clippers" it just wouldnt make sense unless the player is begging to get fined or burn bridges. That's why all we have is hearsay.

Re: 2019 Offseason Thread

Boy OJ you a trip. I really wish LeBron never got hurt last year cause y'all dudes cling to that 1/2 game seed like it was the end all be all. They literally only needed to lose 2 games to fall all the way to 8th or 9th in the conference and injury or not they're chemistry issues were going to happen with the optics of LeBron and Magic trying to trade half the squad for AD. Even despite all that LeBron came back in enough time get that team to the playoffs and it STILL didn't happen. Period. End of story.

But beyond that. You're funny, I literally came at you during the year because I had to listen to y'all riding Bron jock for 9 years that you could put LeBron on ANY team in the league and he'd carry them to the playoffs. Not him and another star, not him and any additions, but to ANY team in the league as they were constructed yes even trash like the Kings during that timeframe. Then when the time came to prove that mess, your tune changed to injuries and how LeBron is old now and not his young self from that time, but now you're trying to tell us that a 35 year old LeBron who has suffered the first major injury and real missed time of his career on a dysfunctional team is better than Kawhi teaming with Gallo, Lou Will, a dog defender like Beverly and 61 million dollars in cap space and we're stupid to think otherwise? Yeah okay OJ. Okay.

Re: 2019 Offseason Thread

He wasn't saying the situation with the Lakers is better.

He repeatedly stated that the Lakers would be a more dangerous team with Kawhi and LeBron than the Clippers with Kawhi and Lou Williams. Lol

But that’s still disregarding the fact that the Clippers have enough cap space to sign Kawhi and another superstar. So if Kawhi signs there it’s likely with the idea that they’re getting someone else.
