OK.  I think i'm off a year.  He has two years left, right? 

This is confusing.  Lebron and Magic are going to have to form a "super team" to beat GS.  But how? 

Wouldn't this pretty much require extremely good drafting the next two years, and then get a big time player such as Kawhi?

Kawhi has 1 year left, BUT there are repercussions If he chooses to sit and not play and is proven to he 100% healthy.

Kawhi has received some terrible advice from his uncle and is in a bad spot. Not to mention he would be leaving a ton of money on the table since SA can offer him the supernax. At this point though, I don't seem them even offering it.
