Kawhi Leonard and the Toronto Raptors have locked horns with the Golden State Warriors in a battle for an NBA Championship. It’s a place Golden State has become very familiar with, making Finals four years in a row before this one, winning three Championships in the process.
Toronto is less familiar. In fact, they aren’t familiar. It’s their first time in the final dance. Maybe that’s because they didn’t have some guy named Kawhi Leonard before.
Kawhi came to Toronto in a decision that was met with controversy. He only had one year on his contract, meaning he may walk at the end of the year anyway. It cost the Raps their best player at the time, and a heck of a lot of loyalty within him.
Now the question is hotter than ever: he stay, or he go?
While Snoop Dogg wasn’t addressing Toronto directly, he believes that a trip to the Los Angeles Clippers – which many believe to big Toronto’s biggest threat in swiping Kawhi – isn’t happening. His reasoning? NOBODY wants to play for the Clippers.
While many may not care for Snoop’s opinion giving that he is not a basketball player, Kawhi is undoubtedly a hot topic. After all, he’s the best player in the Finals according to Raptors great Vince Carter.
He stay, or he go? Let us know @BarDown!
