I get the feeling Kawhi won't even play a game in Toronto, they'll flip him to LA for Kuzma and Ingram or something like that
Not a great deal for the Spurs but they really didn't have much leverage
I think it’s a great deal for the Spurs...
They get an established young all star on a 3yr deal... he’s not as good as Kawhi... but he’s still very good... and you put him in with Pop in his system... i could easily see him flourish and go to an even higher level.
They weren’t getting anything near that type of player from anyone else... so they did the best they probably could.
Kawhi is even less likely to stay in Toronto than he was to stay in San Antonio so i don’t think the Lakers will trade anything meaningful with Toronto... I’d be super surprised if they gave up either Kuzma or Ingram let alone both of them to get him.
They will wait it out IMO...
