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.

0:48.9	an NBA history of suspense and drama by coming out with an outcome that no one really saw coming
0:57.0	because while I could never figure out why Kauai would not want to choose the clippers
1:02.0	I did not foresee the possibility of Kawyer
1:05.0	Linner actively recruiting his own superstar to come to the
1:09.5	clippers with him after he struck out with K. D.
1:15.0	Kawai Leonard has agreed to come to the Los Angeles Clippers.
1:20.0	But the reason why this took so long is the fact that he told the clippers you need to bring in Paul George from the thunder.
1:30.0	So basically the last couple of days has been in a non-stop negotiation between the clippers and the thunder.
1:39.0	And I'll, you know what, I give the thunder a hell of a lot of credit because not only did they get a
1:45.3	record amount of draft compensation but the simple fact of the matter is is that the clippers
1:59.5	literally have offered Oklahoma City five first round picks not one, not three, but five first round picks if I were to quote Bill Cosby.
2:08.7	I know I'm dating myself, but seriously.
2:11.0	Oh I actually know. But seriously. Uh, oh, actually, no, technically that's Eddie Murphy doing Bill Cosby.
2:17.0	Forgive me, folks, it is after 2 a.m. in the morning.
2:20.0	The references are not going to be as sharp as they usually are. But I mean, this one, this one's hard, this one is, this one's, this one's, you know, I shouldn't be shocked, but I'm shocked
