He will have won titles with 3 different franchises in both conferences and multiple titles with 2 different teams :manny:

On top of beating a 73 win team down 3-1. On top of going to the finals 8 years in a row and counting.

Enough for what? He's not catching MJ. Youngins didn't see it, but MJ was that great, both offensively and DEFENSIVELY.

People conveniently forget for being 6'9 and can supposedly do it all he's never had a 100 block season or led the league in steals. All that team switching and he's never had a threepeat ever.

lakers should be giving mediocre offers

i wouldnt part with any prime asset except ball.

they got lebron locked in for potentially 4 years, so this year is not win now. i would offer a take it or leave it deal now and at the trade deadline. take it or lose him for nothing. because they can just sign him outright next off season. dont make the knicks mistake they made when they gutted they assets to bring in melo. should have just waited til that off season, had melo with chandler mozgov etc and been a much better east threat to miami. i do everything i can to keep ingram and kuzma with lebron.
The Spurs are failing to realize that they have no leverage here.. Deal him for what you can or lose him next year for nothing... Pop it's been a great run. But, the sun is setting my friend.

Nah.. Even with the loss of leverage, Pop could still refuse to deal him within the conference.. He'll get Dario, Cov & the unprotected pick or Jaylen Brown, Smart/Rozier and a pick..

I wouldn't do it if I were Pop either, but Khawi on some other shyt right now and might scare everyone else off

Rozier, Morris, Ojeleye, Yabusele, 2019 Sac pick, 2019 Grizzlies pick...take it or leave it.

Brown's only available if Kawhi offers assurances that he'd stay past this upcoming season.
