He didn't act imaturely. All he did was say the Raptors said they weren't going to trade him and they did. How is that acting immaturely? These guys in the NBA are human beings, not robots.
Ujiri did do his job but he could have handled it a lot better. Telling a player you won't trade them and then doing it. Add to it not letting the agent or player know you were looking to trade them - not cool in my book.

Think about it this way. There are fans who give a shit about "Final Fours." Winning the Eastern Conference of the NBA is much, much more difficult and a far more impressive feat.

That's true it is great to get to the NBA Finals and it is an accomplishment even if they don't win it all. But it's not something that I believe should be overly celebrated especially if it starts to happen consistently and the team always loses like the LeBron's teams and the Bills in the 90s.
