Donnovan Bennett and JD Bunkis are shocked. They discuss the moves and what this all means for the Raptors. They alsoexamine scenarios surrounding what it would have taken to keep Kawhi in Toronto and a potential landing spot for Russell Westbrook.
They also answer a number of questions: Are the Nets the new kings of New York and should the Knicks have been a bigger player in free agency? Is it possible to control tampering around the league? And with all the new faces in new places, what’s the power balance between the Eastern and Western Conferences?
They also touch on why Masai Ujiri was the most import piece to this puzzle, the greatest Raptors of all-time, Kyle Lowry, Kawhi Leonard's playoff dominance, Fred VanVleet's Finals touch and much more.
