Oh god! I'm so up for Kawhi Leonard to join the Lakers. I just don't want to think about what they have to give up. I saw an Instagram post said that the Spurs are asking the Lakers to give up Lonzo Ball and Brandon Ingram, but I didn't believe that post one bit. I thought that the value of the player drops when he says that he wants to leave. Personal decisions make the player less valuable for transfers, how come they are asking for Zo and B.I?

That's the price that the Lakers have to pay. They have built their team around Lonzo now but I think he will be used as a trade bait to get Leonard. No one thought that Clarkson will be traded because they are building him as the next Kobe Bryant, unfortunately we was let go. So I wouldn't be surprised if Lakers shift him out as well to either get Leonard or even Lebron himself.

As for the value of players, they have existing contracts, but I don't think that Leonard will accept less than what he is getting from San Antonio, unless he is somewhat like a Green or Durant mentality, accept less money in order to get more players to built a championship team or even a dynasty.
