A fair question, at this point.
It wouldn't be the first time Riley has gotten the better of another team, although Toronto isn't usually the pigeon when it comes to trades.
If that wasn't the case, then it seems like, when the agreement was made, Toronto must have thought they could unload Dragic for a little more than it looks like anyone wants to pay, or if that failed, that they would be okay with keeping him, at least for a while.
