DD is heart/soul signed player at reasonable salary for what he brings.  

 

KL is a franchise cancer pending free agent with known intentions of wanting to be in LA.  

 

How this makes sense is......?

 

Risky....really,  really risky.

Worst case you get rid of DD contract and rebuild around OG and Siakam,

It's pretty easy to see that this core group of players would never get out of the east. Looks like the Raptors are going "all-in" for one season, even if this means taking on a disgruntled player. I'm not sure if the risk was worth it, but if Kawhi plays and gives 100% effort, they might get to the finals and inevitably lose to the Warriors, Rockets, or Lakers :lol:

Such a dumb trade for raptors ,, they had a clear path to the finals with lebron being in the west

Other than  the sentimentality of trading DD the trade seems like a win for the Raps. They're a better team now.

DD and KL were never going to get it done. KL squared will never happen, cause Leonard still going to sit out.

 

Raptors should flip Leonard to LA. 

 

Also, DD’s quote won’t be attracting any more players to that franchise. Just another excuse to avoid playing in Toronto.

If Kawhi doesn't report and misses practices, meetings etc he is gonna forfeit a lot of money.

If he sits out he won't be a free agent next year.

Raptors just did DD dirty man... for a player who doesn't even want to play there (supposedly).

This is nonsense and so is that lame instagram post or whatever it was.

 

Sports is a business and this is nothing but a business deal. DD taking it personally is all on him. All he had to do was take the high road and thank the Raptors and their fans and accept his fate. He is right, there is no loyalty and nor should there be.
