I love people who naturally have morals, manners, self awareness, common sense and consideration

I think it’s crazy that we have anger management, but not stupidity management.

I can’t be mad but you get to be dumb?

the problem with close minded people is that their mouth is always open.

@hellohalima The air quality is insane today. Literally woke up smelling smoke thinking my condo was on fire

Vaccines are so effective they created an entire generation of people who think the diseases they prevented weren’t a big deal.

I honestly hate that we've normalized the idea that all opinions are valid. I think we should get back to telling people that they are ill informed & ignorant

[Blake Murphy @BlakeMurphyODC]

TL;DR: Both sides sound confident the trade will happen eventually, but don't expect an announcement imminently.

[Shams Charania @ShamsCharania]

Developing: The Los Angeles Clippers-Toronto Raptors trade centered on Kawhi Leonard will not be complete until the NBA investigation into the Clippers is over. Statement from the Clippers to ESPN:

For the past 10 months, our organization has fully cooperated with an NBA investigation, participating in dozens of interviews, providing tens of thousands of documents, and facilitating access to our staff. While the process has been challenging, we have remained committed to transparency.

On June 30, we reached an agreement in principle to trade Kawhi Leonard to the Toronto Raptors. We have since been informed that the trade can only be finalized if the Raptors' ownership group assumes the risk of penalties related to Kawhi’s contract that could theoretically result from the ongoing investigation.  The investigation is ongoing, and we expect the trade to be finalized following its conclusion.

At the heart of this investigation are Joe Sanberg and Aspiration. We did not funnel money to Kawhi Leonard through Aspiration. Like many sophisticated investors, financial institutions, and business partners, we were victims of a fraud initiated by Sanberg, who has been convicted and sentenced to 14 years in prison.  

We recognize the uncertainty this has created and the impact it has had on our team, our fans, the Raptors organization, their fans, and the players whose futures remain affected while this process continues.

We remain confident that, when the facts are evaluated fairly and thoroughly, the NBA will confirm exactly what we have said from the beginning: We have not done what we are accused of doing.

Kyle Lowry was the litmus test on whether folks actually watched the Raptors. If you sat and watched him play, you’d know he was more than the box score

#7 FOREVER

Nostalgia is cool. DeMar is nearing the end of his career. People grew up with him on the Raptors. He undeniably helped change this franchise around and propel them to relevance & eventually a chip. I get the love for him, I do.

But this season should be about winning.

[Craig @craigc__]

I’m blocking every raptors fan that’s in favour of bringing back Demar idc

[Blake Murphy @BlakeMurphyODC]

The Raptors have announced a press conference for tomorrow morning, 7/7, with a “special guest” for a “milestone team announcement.”

Kyle Lowry is teasing things on IG. Grange has reported. Etc. Fun morning ahead!

[Clayton Hansler @chansler]

Mr. Tanenbaum is the owner fan bases wish for. He’s a fan. Loves these teams. Loves the players. Loves the city. We were lucky.

Happy Kawhi Is A Raptor Again Day to those who celebrate 🥳
