Makes sense, I suppose.

Sources: As mentioned days ago, the trade completion date was NOT going to prevent the Lakers from having a max slot to pursue Kawhi — see timeline. Woj and other media have been feeding fake narratives. The Lakers, internally, are incredibly confident that they can land Leonard. https://t.co/wALdwY5fJ0

"LA Lakers will have max cap room available to pursue a max-talent free agent this summer. Yes they will. The trade for Anthony Davis is not a barrier. We know you've heard otherwise"

Lakers gonna need a lot of players on the cheap deal, but I'd take Rubio.

Cheap, smart, good D, high b-ball IQ, low turnover, long, perfect guy to plug in with those stars. Cmon Rob! Start my boy! And toss Jemerrio Jones in there, guy is going to be a lock down defender and rebounds like a PF.

If they land Leonard they are looking at a 3 peat. I hope they do. The rest of their roster would be garbage. But I don't think it will matter much if they have that Big 3. I would guess he would only consider Los Angeles and Toronto. He has no family, friends or history in New York. I don't see him at all going there. It's Raptors, Clippers, Lakers. Anybody can make a guess. I don't know which he values higher right now. But that's the only 3 I realistically see him at.
