TORONTO — As RJ Barrett walked from the Toronto Raptors’ locker room to the playoffs-only interview room after his team’s dramatic Game 6 win, he repeated the same phrase to himself.“Kawhi bounce,” Barrett said, putting on an unidentifiable accent. “Kawhi bounce.”Well, not precisely. Kawhi Leonard’s mythic shot that sent the Raptors to the Eastern Conference final in 2019 came from the baseline and needed four bounces off the rim — each one softer than the last, before falling through. The anticipation had time to build. It was the defining moment of what ended up being a championship run.Advertisement
