At this point I want Jaylen to go somewhere else where he's more appreciated. Tatum gets all the love but Jaylen has been just as good IMO in their run, Jaylen didn't play as well against the Cavs but he had to guard LeBron way more than Tatum did.

No Celtic fan with half a brain wants to give up jaylen

Him not being appreciated has nothing to do with Celtic fans

If the Lakers want to wait it out that’s fine by me.
If Kawhi chooses to sit out the season, virtually confirming that he indeed did quit in 2017-2018, that’s fine too.
Hypothetically can the league punish a player if they can prove this? I still believe he was really hurt tho.

Stephen A on sportscenter said Kuzma is off limits and the Spurs have until tmrw to make a deal or they’ll wait it out

Also said Kawhi would consider siting out another season :ohhh::ohhh::ohhh:

That’s why Kawhi is an all time hoe, fake an injury and tanked the Spurs season, never seen that from a top player in any sport

And it’s why :salute: Tony Parker for shytting on him saying his injury was 100x worse, because he knew what was going on

Well if you lied about an injury or simply refuse to play, how is that not a breach of contract?
I don't know.

I think the way things are looking now...Kawhi stays or goes to Philly.
I thought for sure the Spurs would offer him the max today and they didn't. The Lakers giving the Spurs an ultimatum is meaningless. When have you ever known Pop to cave to that sort of pressure? I think all that is saying by LA is that they have moved on from Kawhi and will take their chances next summer.

I get how Pop has no leverage, but neither do the Lakers! They just gave four years to LeBron, and they probably have two years of superstar-level play from him max before his body and play start to clearly slip. They can't even waste one game of one of these first two seasons, IMO. They went in on Bron, so Magic had damned well better get the pieces to go with him to challenge the Warriors now. Not next year, not at the trade deadline, but now. It's not a rebuild anymore.

I think Magic should just say, "we'll give you one of Ball/Ingram, one of Kuzma/Randle, we'll throw in Chicago's 2019 2nd we acquired and maybe another 2nd in 2020 or some shyt, but you also have to take the corpse of Luol Deng and his contract back with you."

That's a fair enough deal, but Magic can't be giving deadlines like he isn't under pressure to win right now in a stacked West.
