Call it clarity or whatever you want, but Kawhi Leonard finally said goodbye to the Toronto Raptors on Wednesday afternoon.
When Leonard first left Toronto at the start of July, fans alike were expecting a long-winded goodbye to go hand in hand with the greatest season in Raptors history. They wanted Kawhi Leonard to reciprocate their emotions. A full-page newspaper article about or Twitter video would have sufficed in their minds.
Instead, fans were left to wait for an entire month until his introductory press conference with the Los Angeles Clippers. Some fans understandably assumed that there might not even be a goodbye.
