In recent hours, the Golden State Warriors fans have embraced the possibility of Kawhi Leonard somehow joining the team. If he’s unable to win it all with the Los Angeles Clippers this season, some teams could try to lure him away from LA.
The Klaw and his squad have struggled against the Dallas Mavericks in their first-round playoffs series, losing the first two games at home. This sparked something inside the Dub Nation. They flooded Twitter with tweets and memes suggesting Leonard would join Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson and Draymond Green next season.
It was the latter who reacted to these comments. As the Clippers played Game 3 of their series vs. Dallas, somebody told Draymond he should be at the American Airlines Center parking lot trying to get Kawhi to the Bay.
Well, Draymond replied, saying he was far away from that, enjoying himself on the beach.
Iβm on the beach π https://t.co/7fevopm23g

NBA fans reacted to this exchange. Some were blasting the Warriors, others saying Steph Curry needs more stars to save his legacy, while the rest nearly begged Draymond to try to do something to lure Kawhi away from Los Angeles.
Dammit man. PLEASE

Of course, this isn’t something that he will do publicly. However, more and more people are getting interested in watching Leonard playing with the Dubs and if they pull off this move, that would be a massive W for them.
Still, Kawhi and his Clippers demonstrated they’re not done yet on Friday night. If they overcome the Mavericks and play for important things this season, it’ll be challenging to see the Klaw leaving.
