If I’m the Clippers I’m done with the whole Kawhi failed experiment. What’s the point anymore? Let him walk 💤
So, it looks like Toronto is targeting Kawhi and Miles Turner. If they can get those two w/out blowing up their debt, then they'd have a chance.
A 2nd tier contender would not annihilate the competition in record breaking fashion in their path to the finals. The knicks were top tier all along. They knew how to win, and had the will to win. They accumulated the battle scars over the years and earned it. You should have seen it coming jason!
Wow, how crazy is it that Jason Timpf still doesn't understand this knicks team? Talked about Boston all year like it was the best team in the east.
Bro, we would rather you say let me study the knicks and understand them better than talking about a team that only lost 3 games in the playoffs as a 2nd tier contender.
As a lifelong Raptors fan I will be upset if they trade CMB. I’d rather him over Kawhi.
Always hurt, doesn't play
Raptors have already made it clear that they will not include CMB or Jakobe Walter in a Kawhi trade. This is why the trade has not gone through yet. LA is asking for too much and the raptors won’t bend that far. BI, Gradey and a couple firsts at the MAX. Anything more is a fat L for Toronto.
For 2 years Jason Timpf talked about how wolves won the trade, come on men, results have spoken n Randle was salary dumped. To see you still disrespetiing the knicks is just sad.
No way raptors are trading cmb … buddy move along …
TORONTO ARE BACKKKKK. 2019 VIBES
Knicks just beat the spurs in 5 and yet Jason still doesn’t have the knicks on the same tier lol come on man learn a lesson.
the defense of this teams would be nasty. CMB Barnes and The Klaw (Even at like 60% effort/ of his peak)
1 guard, 1 center, 15 wings. Toronto is gonna dominate!
Still disrespecting the knicks 😂
Walter Shead Kawhi CMB Scottie is devastating defensively. That said they need way more shooting if Raptors are going to make noise deep in the playoffs.
Not a chance CMB would be included. Don't even think Walter would ever be included. Hes 35, often injured and on an expiring deal.
This proves he doesn't know anything about the raptors organization. They would never trade CMB rookie salary
And if Clipper’s wants Barnes will Toronto make the trade.
If you don’t do view NY as top tier contender I don’t view your opinion as worth while. Next season you can just tell us who the champion should be and we won’t even have to play the games!
CMB not going anywhere
Ingram, Poeltl, Dick, 2x 1st.
Vs
Kawhi, Lopez, Batum
Clippers get younger, fill positions void, get back some much needed picks.
Raps get better, get rid of the Poeltl bad contract make a run at the weakening East.
I keep Bowles over Kawhi all day.
Yeah…no it wouldnt. Kawhi isnt good enough to carry. Hence why he never has before and they need more than just 1 peice like they did in 2019.
No way CMB included. He is a future star.
Get it done Bobby !!! Great analysis, you are spot on about no clear cut contenders in the east it is definitely up for grabs
