    Injury prone and too expensive.

    Too complacent after winning his last ring

    Bro went from Michael Jordan to James Harden real quick

    Leonard will decide where Leonard will play next season. He knows he needs to get out of town before the Clippers are given a slap on the hand. The Raptors don’t have much going on, they need something to excite the fans… it’s a match made in heaven. Leonard can play when he wants and if anyone raises an eyebrow in Canada, he can point to the ring on his finger.

    One of my favorite players, but naw, I'm good. Too risky, too shady, and our culture is too trash.

    I'm not so sure he really wants to leave LA. That said, if it's on the table, I'm sure he'd take the 2yr/$126M add-on to his contract from the Raptors in a heartbeat.

    Clippers haven’t offered an extension- if he wants to stay in LA this year he can, but after the investigation- he supposedly has decided he will move to the team he chooses.

    We will see what happens- for all of the talk and attention surrounding Giannis and Brown - Leonard is arguably a better deal for the right team. If I were a team like OKC or a few other elite teams, I am finding his agent and talking about adding him.

    Too selfish with how he handles his business on the team. Hopefully he goes back to Toronto.

    Could Mr. Stone's moral compass and awkwardness tolerance take on the formidable opponent that is Uncle Dennis.

    Hasn’t Kawhi basically said he won’t sign anywhere except Toronto? Dude should have never left.

    They'll be lucky if he plays half the games. Big contract.
    All that baggage.
    Anyone who gives up anything of value is crazy.

    Too old, too injury-prone. I hope GSW goes after him as a fallback option and gives up too many picks

    I am getting really tired of seeing these beyond stupid ideas.

    On second thought why not? Lets trade Alpi and Amen for Kawhi and FVV for Kyrie and go for it all this one and only season so some of you guys would quit b****ing about not making moves. Throw in all of our draft capital too while we are at it. Lets get rid of every single asset we have for a fleeting chance to win it all with geriatric injury prone players. Some of you guys are begging for it.

    Too risky. Do we really want to become an even older, more injury prone team?
