LeBron James’ Friend Fuels Big 3 Clippers Rumors With Bold Trade Idea Between James Harden and Kawhi Leonard

Cuffs The Legend, a longtime friend of LA Lakers star LeBron James, suggested the LA Clippers should “blow it up” after their 14th loss this season.

On Saturday, Cuffs said the Clippers should trade their three best players: Kawhi Leonard, James Harden and Ivica Zubac. Among the teams suggested by Cuffs, Los Angeles stars included the Houston Rockets, Boston Celtics and Sacramento Kings.

“Time to trade Harden to Houston, Zubac to Boston, Kawhi to the Kings and blow it,” Cuffs tweeted.

Heading into Saturday’s game against the Dallas Mavericks, the Clippers are just 5-14 and have lost 12 of their previous 14 games.

In a separate tweet Saturday, Cuffs said Harden could team up with Anthony Edwards on the Minnesota Timberwolves. Cuffs was watching the Timberwolves’ game against the Celtics on Saturday, as evidenced by his numerous tweets about the game.

“James Harden should make his way to the Minnesota Timberwolves and run with Ant Man…I see the vision…and it’s perfect for Adidas’ rollout,” Cuffs tweeted.

Leonard, Harden and Zubac are the Clippers’ top three scorers this season. Harden is averaging 27.6 points per game, while Leonard (24.9 points per game) and Zubac (16.2 points per game) follow.

Kawhi Leonard comments on the LA Clippers’ difficulties

The LA Clippers lost 112-107 to the Memphis Grizzlies on Friday, marking their third straight loss. Two-time NBA champion Kawhi Leonard was asked after the game what needs to change to turn the season around.

“Just everything, like I said,” Leonard said. “It’s the same game, there’s no new formula for winning. You have to play with pace, get back in transition, rebound the basketball and just share it, trust each other and pretty much execute the game plan.”

Leonard added that it has to be a whole team effort if they want to rack up wins:

“It’s a challenge that you have to take on and I’m ready to take it on. We just have to go out there, put our jerseys on and get ready to give up if we really want to win. It can’t be two players, it can’t be three, it has to be all 15 units. Even the guys on the bench, that doesn’t play.”

Leonard has only played nine games so far, as he has been in and out of the lineup due to various injuries. Coming into the season, the Clippers had championship aspirations, as the team went all out to acquire several aging veterans over the summer. In a rapidly changing NBA landscape, questions have been raised about roster fit and age.
