Lakers Laughed At Kawhi Leonard’s Outrageous Demands
The Lakers had a chance to sign Kawhi Leonard in 2019, when Leonard, through his uncle Dennis Robertson, reportedly asked for some outrageous things that fell well outside NBA rules. Should LA be relieved they didn’t land him?

karma for anyone greedy 😅
But other Laker fans would still choose this headache just to have Leonard instead of Lebron 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Lakers gave uncle Dennis the middle 🖕
All of that for what? A second round exit? Did they even make the conference finals?
Everybody got bamboozled by good (greedy) uncle Denis… Including Kawhi… He should have stayed in Torronto
If David were still in charge, Kawhi would already be suspended for life, Clips would not have a pick until 2035, Steve would be banned to attend anymore NBA games and forced to sell the franchise within 30 days
Just semd that dude to china 😂.
I’m so happy his lazy ass is not playing for us
Kahwi is the best skilled player since Kobe.
Kawhi needs to be suspended and that $28M needs to be clawed back. Balmer needs to be suspended too.
What an idiot. So happy we didn't end up with that fool.
I think, LeBron's Presence in LAL avoided all these Kawhi issues…. imagine if LBJ is not with the LAL & do not have any Bigger star than Kawhi…I Think they Fall and landed with Unc Denis' demands
And on top of that he only plays 45% of his games…..naw we good on this side
We ready knew this.
Why didnt the league know?? They did!!
Crazy work if it was Lebron oh boy they would crusify him
They literally dodged a Nuclear bomb
Uncle dennis also wanted a piece of Taco Tuesday back in the day
I think every team does this including the lakers. But this goes too far and they got caught. I hope it tightens everyone up around the league.
NBA should make it so the representation of a talent has to be represented by someone with a legit agency card. No more papa Brunson or Uncle Dennis. Agents know rules and aren't going to be as willing to skirt rules.
Dodged a bullet with Kahwi….right into another line of fire with the Russ trade
Idk if its a blessing man. Sign Kahwi and you probably can't make a Russ trade. Trading for Russ was just as detrimental IMO
i can no longer look at uncle dennis and kawhi as humans. i see them as dollar signs and i cant unsee it
There was NO Faker laughing when he decided to sign with the Clippers…ONLY TEARS!!! And obvious tears ever since!!!
