train from LA to SD is actually longer than driving. Takes just under 3 hours to go from DTLA to SD. I've done that ride a couple of times for work and hated it.

good. I know the article says he has a place in LA but he doesn’t need to be taking helicopter rides every other day or however often anymore down to SD

Apparently the NBA isn't considering changing the NBA logo.
I guess they don't see it beneficial from a business standpoint.

Yeah he got a penthouse at the Ritz Carlton Residences right next to Staples Center.
That chopper sh** is OUT.
Personally I'm never considering getting in one of those things for any reason at all.

thats assuming he can have his own tracks. he would have to make stops too since other trains will also be making stops.that’s with stops though right? Dude has the cash just buy your own and go direct

take some of that Ballmer money and build his own tracks
buy out whatever land you need to hell hit up Elon and get the Boring company on an underground bullet train SD-LA-LVYeah I know I’m talking way sideways and probably overreacting but I didn’t know this man was taking helicopter trips double the distance Kobe was on the regular. Gotta re-evaluate that for sure now.

yeah, i was always skeptical and overly cautious about helicopters and almost took one with my family in Hawaii over the summer, but I couldnt do it. This sealed it for me. I dont mean to sound ignorant. I don't like flying but in an airplane, I can close the window and don't have to look outside. Being in a helicopter would freak me the F out. The up and down feeling has to be more aggressive/noticeable than being on a plane. I once went in one of those 4 seater planes and I was terrified but had to act tough. And throw in the fact it was my tennis coach who was the pilot, who to my knowledge, was working towards a pilot license for the past 3 or so years. No more after that.

Phillip RIvers bought a $200k SUV with a film room so he can commute from SD to LA when they got relocated to LA! Nuts. He would occasionally beg for some traffic just so he can watch more film.take some of that Ballmer money and build his own tracks

kawhi actually owns a property close to the staples center. it was in the article
Kawhi uncertain on future helicopter commutes
Kawhi Leonard has a Los Angeles residence but has stayed at his San Diego home when he can, using the same helicopter and pilot as Kobe Bryant for his commute. He said he hasn't been able to think about whether Bryant's crash has given him pause.www.espn.com
Come on dude there’s luxury condos sprouting up all over DTLA buy out a floor and drive home when traffic is light.
Edit: hell buy a damn train and use the Amtrak tracks ride can’t be longer than an hour and a half

I really don't understand why the people are mad at TMZ, what they're doing is a constitutionally protected activity.
The majority of news media would of have published that of it was confirmed.
People should be mad at those that are selling that type of information.

yeah it’s legal, but it’s at best in poor taste and at worst despicable.
they reported the story around two hours before any other major outlet said anything. The others assuredly doing their due diligence and having journalistic integrity. IMO tmz and whoever their inside source is should feel awful.
