Spurs' leverage was the possibility for Bron not joining LA without Kawhi. Now that he's there they're screwed.

I agree that Spurs lost some leverage when LBJ signed but PG13 showed that a one year pitch goes a long way. If Kawhi gets sent to Boston or Philly he could fall in love. Lakers need to pony up now. Plus do you really want to waste a year of LBJ's prime?
