Kawhi gave the raptors their first ring, if he can break the Clippers’ curse then he’s in the conversation of being better than LBJ.

Funny how you didn't see one article about Westbrook and PG's discontent but there were 7,438 articles about a mostly-fabricated beef between James Harden and Chris Paul.

Kawhi is #2 to me now. I’ve gone full Skip Bayless. Can’t help it. Thanks for the ring but you’re done to me.

Well this a thing to wake up to...think ima go back to sleep
Seriously though IMO this is a blessing in disguise...because mostly everyone said what to do with the remaining cap especially if you have the max available was go for depth over a 3rd max.
They gambled and now the hand has been forced so IMO blessing in disguise they have no choice but to go for depth now.

It’s because the world can just assume everyone hates playing with Westbrook. You don’t need to be a basketball genius to see he’s at the very minimum a pain in the ass to play with. |

Doesnt really sound like it. He was not really thrilled with the idea of playing with LeBron Yeah but if you remember a year ago, he was happy and thrilled of staying in OKC during the party Westbrook gave him, now he’s getting traded without a notice, that’s got to sting. Without notice? Kawhi recruited him and he immediately requested the trade from what I read. |

The coming season is gonna be f***ing nutty though and I can't wait.
Ad and Lebron in LaLa land
Kawhi and PG13 in Clipperville
Jazz and Memphis big upgrades
KD and Kyrie in Brooklyn
Butler in Miami
Philly got stronger
Alot more wide open a league now which is gonna make things very very interesting and not so much a definitive choice as to who gets to the finals let alone who wins.

Could this be the first time since 2007 that we won’t have a super team? I mean more than three all stars in a team.

I think Philly is going to the finals against the Clippers.

Could this be the first time since 2007 that we won’t have a super team? I mean more than three all stars in a team. That qualifier? Yes. This will be the first season in sometime without a proper Big 3 (unless you count the Warriors with D’Lo/Draymond and Klay around the corner, in addition to a 2-time MVP). I still think both LA teams qualify as super teams due to both having Top 10 players on them. |

Warriors are still a super team if the D'Angelo Russell trade goes through. And even if it doesn't, they become a super team again once Klay gets back. Just that there's a lot of star power concentrated elsewhere that it won't be easy for them. And it's not an OMG team like they had with Durant there on top of Curry, Klay, Draymond, and Iggy.

Klay is going to come back sooner than people think. The man was ready to keep playing with a torn ACL. It will be him, Curry, Draymond, and Russell by the time the playoffs roll around. I wouldn’t rule them out.

Yeah this is what Kawhi should do. Go to every downtrodden (or just not quite there) team and get them their first ring. Not sure why any Raptors fans should be upset about this. It was well known he was a 1 year rent-a-player, so imagine if that scenario hadn't resulted in a title.

It’s not the Kawhi superteam, but it’s a helluva rebound.

I wonder what’s gonna do for Toronto’s morale that they were gonna trade everyone except Siakam to get PG13.
