Report Shows That Kawhi Was Purposely Trying To Screw Lakers Before Signing With Clippers

Kawhi is certainly the silent assassin.

Around 3am East Coast time, 2am Central Standard time, and 11pm West Coast time, Kawhi Leonard and his camp decided to shake up the NBA and take his talents to the Los Angeles Clippers.

Then suddenly, the Clippers would soon acquire Paul George in a trade and officially make the Clippers one of the most dangerous teams in the Western Conference.

Hours later, ESPN’s Ramona Shelburne would send out a tweet that seemed to suggest that Kawhi was messing with the Lakers just hours before he set his sights on the Clippers.

Much will be made of the Lakers and Raptors end of this. But as of about 2 hours before Leonard chose the Clippers Friday night, his camp was asking the Lakers to delay the AD trade until Sat/Sun, sources tell ESPN. No reason given. Just a condition.

That is just cold blooded.
