That's why Masai is going on a full out offensive to shoot down the narrative that elite players still don't want to play in Toronto. Raptors are a top tier franchise in the NBA, but we all heard the immediate condecension by the US media when Kawhi got traded here.... 1000% positive that he's one and done here. If Kawhi re-signs here next summer, that will erase about half of that. If Masai can outright sign a top FA, then the job is complete.

I like CBS latest power rankings:
https://www.cbssports.com/nba/news/n...ck-the-top-10/
4. RAPTORS
-- 0-0
The NBA's fifth-ranked defense loses a player who dragged it down (DeMar DeRozan) and added a player who will lift it up (Kawhi Leonard). The Raptors defense will be elite.Last edited by Hotshot; Mon Oct 15, 2018, 04:00 PM.

It wasn’t the colour of the money or the chill in the air or the curling on TV. It’s that he wants to be on TV. Once a legend of YouTube, Bosh said that after seven seasons in northland, he was ultimately disheartened by the Raptors’ scarce appearances on the U.S. tube.
“Really, it’s all about being on TV at the end of the day,” the five-time all-star said Tuesday. “Seriously. A guy can average 20 (points) and 10 (rebounds), and nobody really cares. If you don’t see it (on U.S. national TV), then it doesn’t really happen.”

Mostly silent but at one point apparently Kawhi said "Wheeeeeeeeeeeeee!"
