NBA Twitter Reacts To Clippers Signing Kawhi Leonard And Trading For Paul George

 

What a shocker! Literally a move no-one expected.

Last night, the Los Angeles Clippers signed Kawhi Leonard and traded for Paul George in a move that shook the NBA landscape.

The battle for the city of Los Angeles, will be unreal next season. NBA Twitter reacted accordingly:

From Lakers POV this is a calamity. They not only forsook all other July options in pursuit of Kawhi, they now have to reckon with the Clippers having a one-two punch arguably just as good as the LeBron/AD pair they worked so hard for. Just down the hall!

This might be the greatest day in #Clippers history. They have acquired not ONE, but TWO superstars in one day in Kawhi Leonard and Paul George. Wow.

July 2019. The #Clippers and #Nets beat out the #Lakers and #Knicks for the top 3 Free agents in the world. That really just happened

What's scarier: a big earthquake or the Clippers actually being the best team in LA?

I know I was just woken up…

But am I dreaming that Kawhi is GOING TO THE CLIPPERS?

All week, the only team you didn't hear even a hint of a rumor come out from was the L.A. #Clippers. That front office is like a ninja: moves in absolute silence. Wow.
