    Yeah, he's 37. But, KD has adjusted his game and regimen...it's been down to a science for quite awhile...played the second most minutes in the League.(needs to be cut down wherever he plays next year) He's still one of the best closers and shooters in the game.(being able to get it off at will is his sig)
    26/5.5/5 - 42% from 3, deadly midrange, with underrated D
    All for only 45/yr

    Needless to say, KD has the most value to a contender or a pretender...a team with the pieces in place. He needs to not be asked to do too much. (like last year)

    So, considering what Toronto just paid, for Kawhi....

    I'll use mid to late first round picks for value purposes.

    I think 4 or 5

    KD as a player has some value. His alleged burner account behavior has dropped interest from other teams. The Rockets are stuck with him. It seems to me that he’s only interested in his stats now.

    Missed opportunity to make a poll option “Less than combined Dillon and Green”

    With what was paid for Leonard, I would imagine it is 2 to 3 first rounders. probably at a minimum. As long as he stays healthy we should be able to trade him through February but I am certainly fine with doing it now. We need to target contending teams that have a young piece to pick up. I don’t know him very well, but somebody the other day brought up Cason Wallace. or what about maybe to Indiana for some sort of package of Nembhard/Huff/Jarace Walker.

    4, 5 firsts lmao. OP’s endowment bias is worse than Stone’s. I’d be ecstatic to get half the package LAC got for Khawi

    I thought he meant 4th and the 5th pick not 5 first round picks.

    KD is worth Marcus Smart and a bag of chips

    Does it matter if he's not getting traded?
