    If this happens then @Clutch needs to raise holic's salary. (And no I'm not willing to take a pay cut to facilitate that, so don't ask.)

    We’ve already lost Ariza. That ship has sailed and there’s no decision to be made there. So really if morey goes S&T would you let Capela, Gordon and Ryno + picks go for LBJ?

    We couldn’t afford to keep him under the hard cap due to S&T. We’d probably have to use him to facilitate dumping Ryno anyways.

    I always thought Philly was the best landing spot for Kawhi. Should be interesting to see what happens.

    Sixers need to trade every asset they have to get Kawhi basically...Saric, Fultz, Heat pick...super gamble, if that nets you Lebron you do that of course, but if Kawhi will leave after one year ugh. I also have really a difficult times thinking about a guy like Leonard play under Lebron, what's going to happen when Lebron will scream on the bench?

    Damn that would be a good team; adding Lebron and KL to the two young building blocks. Philly would dominate the east for years. And that's a team that's good enough to beat Golden State.

    He doesn’t like the city. We got only pocket change for a King, and to my knowledge not even a meeting. I think 99.2% is low!

    Yeah that's a trash offer. Covington is a great defender but he's really inconsistent with his jumper and doesn't do anything other than stand in the corner. Saric is a nice role player but not a starter and that Philly first is as good as ours.

    Yeah, i like Saric a lot and i'm pretty sure the Spurs like him too, but he's not a star and not enough to get Leonard with just a mediocre pick and Covington which would be a younger Danny Green for them.

    Look..Kawhi got insulted to the point of wanting out because he long time teammate who they have won a RING together said that his injury was worse than Kawhi.
    Have you seen what Embiid is saying? Even thick skinned ppl get offended let alone Diva Kawhi.
    100% he will bolt out of there.

    That would be better indeed, basically Saric and a 2021 pick (which btw has no guarantee to be a lottery pick), i mean, obviously better than the Sixers 2019 pick, but still not a great package if you ask me, i'm not even a great fan of Fultz, but i feel like they need to throw him too in the deal to have a chance. For the record, i think Covington has decent value at best.

    If Philly could get a commitment from LeBron first, they could go as far to offer Simmons and salary matching pieces for Kawhi. Then the Sixers still would have Fultz-LeBron-Kawhi-Saric-Embiid.
