FTP Ep. # 177: #KawhiWatch Has Ended With A Surprise Plot Twist




Fantasy Throwdown Podcast show

Summary: Is Kawhi Leonard the NBA equivalent of Keyser Soze or the beneficiary of an instant gratification media driven society? I have no idea but its 3AM on the East Coast and I need to get some sleep. The Clippers have landed Kawhi Leonard by pulling off a monster trade with the Oklahoma City Thunder to acquire Paul George in exchange for FIVE 1st round picks (OKC will look like geniuses if Sam Presti stays around long enough to use all these picks), Danilo Galinari, and Shai Gilgeous Alexander. Win-win trade on both sides. This is as almost as massive a defeat imaginable for the Lakers and its not even close because the shoe has yet to drop if Anthony Davis has second thoughts at some point this season.
