On the surface, what you are saying makes sense. However, if reports are true and Leonard wants to be in LA long-term, then I really hate this deal. Toronto traded the best player in franchise history for a one-year rental who is all but set to join Lebron in LA.
Maybe that won't happen...but usually in the NBA rumors like these end up being true.
