“I didn’t lead anyone on really.  I took my time in free agency as I should, making sure that I make the best decision for myself and my family.  I feel like some of the media coverage over it made it feel that way.  Whoever is telling those statements, you shouldn’t believe rumors.  I don’t want to ever have that bad karma come back to me, having the Lakers miss out on players that they should’ve gotten, and vice versa with the Raptors.”

Kawhi is the best.  We hope he never changes.
