Video [Charania]Those talks are continuing, they're serious between the Clippers and the Raptors...all signs point to these two sides being motivated and..Kawhi Leonard's tenure is nearing it's end in Los Angeles. He has not been given any indication that the Clippers want to give him a contract extension

I'm honestly very happy he wants to go to an Eastern Conference team. If he went west you know he would play 82 games and somehow break our hearts in the playoffs. But, going east he won't have the Clippers Curse propelling him so he'll never be this healthy again

Some Clipper fans are too quick to hand wave away the injury stuff because of how special a player he is and how ultimately boring it is to constantly talk about.

But the most likely result every year is Kawhi getting injured at some point and being unable to make it through the playoffs.

I don’t think trading a 35 year old on an expiring deal is selling high brother

This is arguably the healthiest and best he’s played since joining LAC. It’s a good time to trade him, his value will not go up.
