That the Raptors got good makes sense, in retrospect, given the development of their two star guards and the decent-to-good role players around them. In his three and a half years with the team, Patterson stood as a fitting avatar for the Raptors' unintended success, and not just because his arrival signaled the start of that period. At the heart of it was Patterson, who on Tuesday signed a three-year, $15.4 million deal with the Oklahoma City Thunder. The way things broke from there is history at this point: James Dolan nixed the Lowry deal days later, the new-look Raptors found an inexplicable, ethereal chemistry that turned a would-be tank into a low-rumbling force, and Toronto had their most fun season in years.
