Quote from: MuggsyB on June 30, 2026, 09:39:31 AMIt looks likely Lebron is going to the Warriors.  So they will have Curry, LeBron, Butler, Draymond and Porzingas.  Plus Lendenbourg who could be an immediate impact player.  Sounds like a championship team?  If this was 2016?   Or even 2021?

At least that team made the Finals. This one won't.

During the act of signing his new contract, Porzingis will dislocate his left pinky and be sidelined until at least February.

Kawhi back to Toronto for draft picks, Brandon Ingram and Gradey Dick
It's only a few pennies

Kawhi back to the Raptors for Brandon Ingram, Gradey Dick, and 2 firsts, 2 seconds, and a swap.  He might just retire

I heard Kawhi said he would only go to the Raptors.

After I posted that and was looking more, I saw similar.  Which seems wild, guess he really loves Bobby Webster and the 9 months he spent there.

That being said, they do have a really intriguing young roster with Barnes, Quickley, and CMB.  RJ Barrett has also found his game post-Knicks and is a really nice 3rd option.

Toronto is one of the great cities in North America, and a wonderful sports town, too.

When healthy, Kawhi is still a top 5 guy in the league.

Maybe they agreed not to extradite him

Not a bad rebound from the ignominy of trading SGA...

Top 5 if healthy?

Probably put Luka and Ant ahead of him too.

Now, I suppose so.  Obviously when Kawhi was right and younger he was top 5.   Although statistically he had a really good season.

Because I've gone to the MU @ Butler game several times, I'm on Butler's email list, and I just received this from them ...

The NBA today announced that the Emirates NBA Cup 2026 Championship will be played at Hinkle Fieldhouse in Indianapolis, the iconic home of Butler University. The winner-take-all game is scheduled for Friday, Dec. 11 during the 2026-27 NBA season and will stream exclusively on Prime Video.

The selection of Hinkle Fieldhouse reflects the NBA's multiyear vision to bring the Championship to distinctive stages that honor the sport's history while connecting with audiences around the world.

Top6 scorer in the league + one of the best defenders?

Luka dominates the ball and plays zero defense, comparably speaking.

Ant has a chance to be top 5 eventually - but now he's not even a top 3 guard in the league.

Kawhi is 34 and hasn't played enough to lead a team anywhere. This past season was his best since his first in LA, but he certainly isn't getting any younger.

I actually think I am generous thinking he's 5-10.

Where would you slot Jaylen Brown?  The guy averaged close to 29, 7, and 5 (plus defends multiple positions) and no one seems to really want him.  Maybe it's his turnovers?  Or off court stuff?  Salary?
