The Toronto Raptors are taking a chance by acquiring Kawhi Leonard from the
San Antonio Spurs as he enters his walk year, but now that he has had some
time to process the trade, he is reportedly approaching the move with a
positive outlook.
Sean Deveney of Sporting News reported in the immediate aftermath of the
trade that Leonard had "no interest" in playing for Toronto. However, ESPN's
Adrian Wojnarowski (h/t theScore's Chris Walder) revealed later on Wednesday
that the former All-Star is starting to "warm to the idea" of wearing a
Raptors uniform.
In Deveney's report, it was mentioned that the disgruntled star could sit out
the 2018-19 season as he prepares for free agency next summer. After all,
it's no secret, as Wojnarowki has noted in the past, that Leonard wants to
play in his hometown of Los Angeles.
Neither the Lakers nor the Clippers presented the Spurs with an offer that
was too good to refuse, and as a result, Leonard did not get his wish. Now,
he will be playing his home games in a different country—for one year, at
least.
Toronto is taking a major risk by essentially swapping DeMar DeRozan—who had
two years of team control remaining—for potentially just one year of Leonard
and Danny Green. DeRozan and Kyle Lowry had led the franchise to five
straight postseason appearances and a franchise-record 59 wins last season.
The organization is all-in on next season after the trade.
With Leonard and Green set to be free agents next summer, a rebuild could be
in Toronto's plans sooner than had been expected at the start of this
offseason.
Of course, the Raptors could be hoping that they are able to duplicate the
Oklahoma City Thunder's success in convincing Paul George to sign a long-term
deal after acquiring him with just one year remaining on his contract. Like
Leonard, George was expected to head to Los Angeles as a free agent. Instead,
he agreed to a four-year deal with OKC at the start of free agency.
Toronto will be able to offer Leonard a five-year, $190 million contract next
offseason, while opposing teams can only offer four years and $141 million.
Then again, money may not be his top priority, as he was in line for a
supermax deal worth more than $200 million had he remained in San Antonio.
Neither Leonard nor DeRozan were initially happy when news of the trade first
broke. Fortunately for the Raptors, their newest star now appears to be
willing to give his new city a chance. It will be up to the franchise to
convince him over the coming months to stay in Toronto long-term.
短評或心得：
基本上沒太多新消息，但就是說本來Sean Deveney報導可愛本來不想幫暴龍打球，
但Wojnarowski說現在可愛開始對這想法有興趣了，雖然大家都知道他想回家鄉打球。
暴龍就是想複製PG模式要不然就等可愛小綠明年到期，可能球季中就尋求重建，
留下可愛他們有5年190M的合約優勢，不過謹記他如果只為錢就不會離開馬刺。
