ESPN Summer Forecast Predicts Kawhi Leonard Will Start 2019-20 NBA Season With Lakers

It's just a prediction but this could be good for the Lakers, Leonard and Lebron James playing together, they'll definitely dominate in the league.
I like their chances then, hopefully the Lakers will be back on the championship next year.

Leonard and James is a good combination but like the hearsay that they can't play together from the start. But I do think that this can be one of the best tandem for this season. It's too early to speculate but if this rumor can be for real, well see another team that has been made and teamed up just to beat a certain team. If you know what I mean.

There are a lot of things that would happen in a year or so so we wouldn’t have the right thing all right evidence to support that claim and we will see how Leonard will play with the raptors and probably if he likes the outcome he would stay there for 2019–2020. Maybe it could happen.

Its gonna be interesting to see those 2 play together, we also did say that Lebron and Wade will not be a match but they proved everything wrong at Miami. Let's see how it goes in the following year. Its a intriguing combination, but if they blend well then they will give GSW a run for their money.

I think kawhi and lebron is an AMAZING pair however we are talking about warriors and rockets at west as the current best teams and just check their rosters. Rockets are the weaker of the two with harden and paul being the best players and lets assume kawhi can stop harden, lonzo will certainly not able to stop paul and they have good center at capela which lakers don't have and have melo helping out and eric gordon shooting lights out. Just lebron and kawhi will not be able to fight against all that team if the team around them is horrible.

If we look at warriors, we know steph is the best shooter of all times, we know klay is a close second, we know KD can score at will whenever he wants to, we know draymond is an amazing defender and well look at that they got cousins (he probably leave after this year) which means warriors are insane as always.

Now this is lebron and kawhi, they can really pull a rabbit out of a hat, however they also need decent team around them to have a shot at the title because lets face it this is a team sport, lebron carries all his teams to finals but he also loses in the finals.

I don't see any disadvantages if the two of them will be at the same team together in the next seasons. They can be a good tandem and add a good point guard into the Lakers team and they can be the new Big 3 again.

If the speculations that Leonard will start in 19-20 season with the Lakers, then it will be good for them. At that time, maybe some these young players today will be as good as an all star at that time. Lets just wait for the things to come.

It is a forecast and could happen.
Remember that trades could happen until the All Star Week. They could adjust some with their players or try to look for a better deal but it could ruin the chemistry. That is a risk they should be willing to take.

I am guessing this predictions happens because of Kawhi's statement that he wants to be in the LA team. They might look at this deeper since Kawhi also have history with injuries now even if he is a Finals MVP.

That was just a forecast for 2019-20 Season. As for me, it's quite not interesting to discussed what will be happenings on 2019-20 for now as overall, everything will just be a speculation. But surely Kawhi Leonard will only remained in Raptors for a year unless a good max contract will be offered and he will not focus on getting to a much stronger team. Raptors is targeting him in free agency.

Kawhi Leonard can't be traded to other team this season and will play at the Raptors the whole year. We can just expect news about his next possible team once he hits free agency next year and surely lots of team will target him and can even spoiled the expectation of others that he will go to LA Lakers..

Yes and he must play better this year.

Scouts will be lurking around. They might even be eyeing on him because of this speculations. Is he worth for the salary cap that will be freed by the Lakers?

Even with his mind not set when he was traded on Raptors they must see a good and healthy Kawhi. He cannot just play around without a championship goal. Any team he went through he must have that kind of mind set.

Toronto might even give him a better offer than what Lakers could give if he could give them also a championship.

Yes that's very interesting but like what others said it seem to be not quite interesting to talk about them.

The hearsay only determines that tandem won't work from the beginning but we know that these 2 athletes are very flexible and can work with anyone just to get to the top.

[harizen]

Yes that's very interesting but like what others said it seem to be not quite interesting to talk about them.

I used the term "for now". It's an interesting topic it's just that talking it today will just be lead into full of speculations with no strong basis since we have to wait for a year before we can see some progress about it. So for now, let's see how Leonard will behave in Toronto Raptors first.

Even with his mind not set when he was traded on Raptors they must see a good and healthy Kawhi. He cannot just play around without a championship goal. Any team he went through he must have that kind of mind set.

Toronto might even give him a better offer than what Lakers could give if he could give them also a championship.

That's what Im looking forward. He will disrespect the Raptors if he wont be the usual Kawhi Leonard. That team sacrifice their loyal player so in return Leonard at least show some balls that he is really serious in playing and not just he able to achieved his desire of being getting out at the shadow of San Antonio Spurs.

If he wanted to gain more respect from this league he needed to play at his best whatever teams he may go, we knew Kawhi he's been one of the top caliber player that this league have, Raptors deserve his leadership hopefully he will play the same attitude when he's still with coach Popovich.

The team has got good standings in their historical plays as well, that's why all gameplays they had gathered successful legacy. With regards to raptors, I guess their leadership has brought them to the journey that has been doing great job as well. Descipline was the best asset they had and that makes them successful all the time.

Raptors were swept by the cavaliers, they will be more aggressive in the upcoming season, and now that Lebron is in the West already,
we might see a great competition in the East although in general they are weaker compared to the East.
With Leonard in the line up, I believe they have a chance to win the NBA East Finals.

I think the Raptors have the chance to win the ECF definitely now that Lebron is on the Western Conference already. They are a lot stronger than the their past roster now that Leonard is on their team already. They can win it if Leonard will not suffer another injury again throughout the season. Aside from the Raptors, I see Celtics and Philly as the teams that I see will win on the ECF.

Raptors is a different team now with Leonard as the point man. So we can't compare the Raptors that was swept by the Cavs. Although I would tend to agree that they have a good chance specially Lebron left the East. One of my main concern though is how Leonard will blend, we might see some adjustment games and probably can attest how's his doing right before a All Star Break.

Well everyone seems to be making it all about kawhi in the east. Demar was doing a pretty good job as well and the raptors even took top spot quite a couple of times. Having kawhi doesn't guarantee anything and though weak as the east teams are compared to the west, a couple of then have better chances than the raptors this year.

Having kawhi doesn't guarantee anything and though weak as the east teams are compared to the west, a couple of then have better chances than the raptors this year.

He was really doing very good until he faces Lebron and the Cavs and he was exposed. 

But I have to agree that Kawhi although is very young and talented is not a guarantee for the Raptors to take the number 1 spot in the East. Sixers or Celtics might get the top spot for me.

On another note, I would like to see Kahwi performed, specially after that dubious injury he got while he was in San Antonio. Or he will just give a so-so performance if he is not comfortable playing as Raptors and will opt out again?

[coinplus]

I think the more important part is that demar derozan was there for life if let it be however kawhi may leave next year depending on how they do. Which in return means raptors knew that if they kept doing what they were doing they had no chance at all of winning anything, so they decided to say "win big or go home". This year either they will go to finals and get couple wins and lose (best option) or they will just lose on conference finals or before on playoffs.

If the best option happens than they will try to gather back regroup get kawhi again and try next year and hope warriors can't sign all of their players, if that happens they will want to get a ring. However if the worst option happens than kawhi will leave and they will tanks to get some good players because "tanking" is the new way apparently.

[JesVarez]

I think a lot of people are not giving enough credit to the Celtics. The things they achieved without their two best players and how unlucky they have been. The Rockets didnt make good trades in my opinion, Carmelo Anthony moves really slow on the court, he doesnt fit in my opinion on the Rockets fast-paced game. If anyone can stop the Warriors this year or if anyone can at least win a game in playoffs against them it will be the Celtics.
