Hell yeah
Kawhi presents some problems. One, the injury. It's unclear how bad it is. Two, he's shown that when he isn't where he wants to be, he won't play ball. Three, if you trade for him, you better have an agreement on an extension, and he's going to want the super max - which means you're committing probably $37.6M per year for five years to Kawhi. That means you'd be paying Leonard 8x what you are paying Jaylen Brown, who is getting paid less than $12M total for the next two years, and is then a restricted free agent in the summer of 2020.
So it's not as easy as "Kawhi" is better. There's a lot of risk and a lot less roster flexibility that comes with him. However, I think most teams would ultimately pull the trigger.
