NBA basketball could soon be back. What would that mean for the Toronto Raptors?
When you think about Kawhi Leonard’s historic run as a Toronto Raptor to the 2019 NBA Championship, what comes to mind?

Thursday night was about the Raptors starters. In game three, the Sixers starting group soundly beat them for the first time in the series. That was where the Raptors lost the game, and that’s where the focus should be, right? If the starters, who had dominated throughout the playoffs, couldn’t get the job done, then…
