You only have so many years to make big money so if there’s any question at all take the money. We would all do the same.

I mean, where else would they go lmao. Staying with us is the right move even if they get paid just a little under the max, that helps our team more

FO has literally done whatever Kawhi and PG have wanted. Maybe they should give the FO something in return so idk…they can build a championship caliber roster? You know, the reason why Kawhi and PG came here?

It’s about time the Clips put they foot down because we have nothing to show for their efforts. Like both of them, but sheesh.
noobodyknows
Who cares. They’ll handle what they’ll handle. Ain’t nobody worried about another’s persons pocket. Sit down and let the big boys negotiate at the high table.

You pay these guys Jaylen Brown type money (ridiculous in itself), and you are insane, even if you are Steve Ballmer.
If we win the chip next year and they stayed healthy…different conversation.

Why would kawhi Leonard and Paul George take less than the max when Jaylen brown got the biggest contract in nba history?
DeathOfLife01
If PG and Kawhi take less than max to help the team that will be the greatest “Sorry we got hurt”

No team is gonna offer them the max so they have no leverage to demand it
GreenSlothKing
They don’t deserve anything close to the max they don’t even play…
UrDadsFave
Nobody else is going to max them.

Everybody wants the pay without the play

Who cares if they both take less than the max. If these 2 are our stars we ain’t doing shit. Ppl be acting like players get healthier as they age. Need to move em for what we can.

If you were them, which one would you rather have (after having already made over $270 million)?
(A) 4 years, $240 million – and make it real difficult for team to sign strong role players so you have to work harder to win and put your body at greater risk of injury, greater chance of being slammed and slandered every day for years in sports media and social media for having a ridiculous contract, continue to be laughing stock of LA and walk around as one of the great failures in the NBA, likely never be able to show your face in LA without being mocked by annoying Laker fans as a failure and unable to overcome the Clipper curse, greater chance of getting traded and getting passed around the league in trades until you’re eventually bought out and signed for the vet min on your last year.
(B) 4 years $180-200 million – and greatly increase chance to add strong role players to reduce your own workload and risk of injury, and greater chance of being seen as a team-first and win-first guy and get praise for that on sports and social media, a greater chance to become a true winner in LA on the Clippers and cement your legacy with multiple championships and seen as one of the great successes in the NBA, greater chance to walk around LA as the one who overcome the great Clipper curse and become a true champion in LA, greater chance you will not be traded but can stay in LA at home with your family and then sign another contract with LA in the sunset years of your career as you ride out an Clipper, LA, and NBA legend—which would lead to many many lucrative opportunitie$ off the court worth millions.
