Seven hundred grand. Cute. A rounding error for a man who made nine figures. Kawhi skates to Toronto, the Clippers eat the historic penalties, and the league calls it accountability. Nothing changes. The cap stays a suggestion, the next star gets a “consulting gig,” and fans get another ticket hike. Wake me when a team actually loses a draft pick.
