Signing(s): Kawhi Leonard signs with the Clippers (3 years, $103 million)

[darko]

Love the fact both Kawhi and George rejected the Lakers only to end up with their rivals. Gold.

 

[EpochLink]

Well I'm waiting for the sports hot takes on Monday.
I wonder what show Chris Broussard will show up on?

Maybe he has new 'sources' he wants to share with us.

 

[Newsworthy]

Kawhi pulling a Tavares.

 

[Newsworthy]

Knowing him, he'll still complain about needing help. Kawhi is pretty much "just give me one guy and I'm good".

Rondo and Cousins just signed for cheap. They will be fine.

Broussard: "My sources tell me Kawhi told Danny Green he was going to LA but he didn't tell him which LA team he was going to. That's how he ended with the Lakers."

 

[NJDevs26]

Wow an overnight Woj nuke. I was passed the **** out when this broke. Must have been 2AM on East Coast.

I guess it's kind of fitting the guy who doesn't want attention (Kawhi) wound up committing to the Clippers in the middle of the night on 4th of July weekend.

Love the fact both Kawhi and George rejected the Lakers only to end up with their rivals. Gold.

Yeah this was definitely an offseason for little bro to troll big bro with the Nets getting KD and Irving over the Knicks.​

 

[Voight]

My head hurts

Now taking in a fan base that has never seen the conference finals made this feel bad because I'm sure there are still some reasonable Clipper fans out there.

 

[EpochLink]

I know for a fact, there are 3 huge Clipper fans that have been outspoken:
Billy Crystal, Clipper Darrell and Marcellus Wiley.

I think in terms of star power, Billy Crystal is a huge Clippers fan..he's seen so much losing so let him bask in this glorious moment.

Think you can still get seasons for a lot cheaper than you would at Laker games

 

[Melrose Munch]

yeah this whole thing revealed his whole "low-key, reserved, private guy shtick" is pure BS

The spurs warned us...

What's funny is that he still talks about his 'sources' At least on Monday's show. Like just quit it boy. Biggest fraud who makes his network look bad.

Yeah, I think his 'sources' have been going on strong for 10 years now.
He always comes up with 'My sources told me...' like dude, who are these 'sources'?!!?!

Peyton Manning? Marshawn Lynch?! Shaq?
Annoying as heck.

 

[Terry Yake]

chris broussard is the worst of them all

anything he says should be taken as the complete opposite

 

[dahrougem2]

Chris Broussard claims to have called Kawhi to the Clippers lmao

Didn't he also claim that the Clippers were out of the Kawhi sweepstakes and it was down to the Lakers and Raptors?!

This guy

clippers planning on making more moves? he hasn't officially signed yet.

Are they not maxed out of cap space? Aside from the MLE or some other smaller exception.

 

[Voight]

2+ 1 deal.

Lines him up with the 10 year super max and gives them 2 years to do something with Leonard + PG.

 

[Marc the Habs Fan]

Signing is finally official:

 

[Del Preston]

Kawhi and George will opt-out in 2021 and go across the hall.

 

[Hadoop]

So Kawhi got LAC to mortgage the next 7 years of their franchise for only 2 guaranteed years of PG13 and himself.

To quote the Enron movie - this guy is actually the smartest guy in the room. And I guess his message to Raps fans during their championship parade probably applies to the rest of the NBA as well "Enjoy this moment. Have fun wit it".

I mean if LAC manage to win a championship in the next 2-3 years with Kawhi/PG then it's totally worth it without question.

 

[dahrougem2]

This will all be worth it if the Clippers can win a title or two over the next two seasons.

However, if they don't and both players leave... OKC is licking their chops at the potential of those picks lol.

 

[Terry Yake]

i thought he wanted a 4 yr deal?
