He is going to a first class organization with one of the best coaches in the NBA. He should be thrilled.

Danny Green is a REALLY nice second piece to that trade. Is that deal really the best thing the Spurs could do?

Spurs didn't get anywhere near the haul they could've for Leonard, but that's mostly his fault for being such a whiny bitch. Good on the Spurs for sending him to Canada, though. That's a far cry from Los Angeles and San Antonio. LMAO

Toronto is a much better city than San Antonio, BTW.

Not for basketball LeBronie. Spurs > Raptors and it isn't close.

Cool. The lifestyle change from the weather alone will probably piss him off enough that he'll just end up in LA next year.

Not last year and especially not after this trade. Demar plays no defense and his offense goes to nothing in the playoffs. The Spurs dynasty is at an end.

It's safe to assume he's going to LA anyway, which is fine in my books (Raptors get to rebuild with a huge amount of cap space and no more 28M DeRozan and LeBron adds a top 5 player).

For now and so is every other teams hopes of winning a championship other than GS. Spurs will bounce back they always do.

You don't make the playoffs 21-seasons in a row by not being able to make adjustments when star players leave.

The cold certainly sucks in the winter. I'll take 80 in the summers over 100+, though. And beyond weather, there's certainly no comparison between the cities.
