Who cares. We're here. Draft better, keep an eye on Europe and China, scout deep in Africa and South America and we can be sweet. A guy from Lithuania doesn't care about being in Toronto or Charlotte. Just wants to be in the NBA. A guy from Scottsdale hears "Toronto" and instantly thinks cold and barron like New York, Detroit or Chicago aren't equally as cold. These are guys who think Toronto is overseas. Primadonna idiots. Taxes is a thing though that should be thought about to assist in keeping some stars here. American Media bias for no reason. Just idiots who can't point Toronto on a map. Fuqq'em. Why hold these tards in high regard. We have a team, let's fuqqin go!

cus d amato wasn t alis trainer, that was angelo dundee. Cus traines tyson.

Wow great story ❤❤❤❤❤

The Raptors had one of the best Championship parade celebrations in NBA history! We will always remember that. The taxes & border crossing is a pain. That we all know. 'Mericans' will be Mericans. 🙄

That’s why wilt only had 2 rings😂

Craptors, please.

As a Canadian, I wasn't sad when the Grizzlies left Vancouver but at times I feel surprised the Raptors are still in Toronto. Back in 2005, when the Grizzlies and Raptors entered the NBA, TSN, the only sports channel in Canada at the time, decided after years of low ratings for the NBA, dropped the league from it's schedule to focus more on Blue Jays baseball and NHL hockey, especially the Maple Leafs. If you didn't live in Toronto or Vancouver and wanted to support one of the teams outside of their market? FORGET IT!! Grizzlies and Raptors games were available on local television stations that had a small regional market. Grizzlies only reached Vancouver and the Lower Mainland as far east as Chilliwack on VTV (now CTV BC, go figure. It's now province wide), and the Raptors had a Southern Ontario audience where Citytv was available. After TSN pulled the plug on NBA games being available nationally, CTV filled the void, and miserably at that. Only times people outside those markets were able to see NBA basketball, including the Raptors and Grizzlies, was on the weekend!! Sure it was nice to see the Raptors win in 2019 but it almost looks like, from the perspective of Americans, there was no champion that year.

Without Vince I don't think Toronto would still have an NBA team. I could almost guarantee we would be teamless without Vince

which the footage was from the year this ai bot was talking about passssss

We don't have to miss the like of steps curry. Recruiting people like him will be the best. One love Steph

I’m from Oregon and never do I ever hear anyone in the media and outside of Portland talk about the Blazers. Nobody ever mentions how good we were in the 90 or 2000’s. And I’m pretty sure if we won the championship no one outside of Portland and maybe Seattle would care. The PNW as a whole is a lot like Canada in which we always get passed over by the rest of the US in sports despite having some of the best fan bases in the major leagues.

You could make the exact same video about the Toronto Blue Jays.

First of all McGrady left so he could be a starter because he was on the bench in Toronto. Chris Bosch left to join a super team in Miami with Wade and LeBron and if Kawaii is so great, how come he hasn’t done shit in LA when they stacked the team for him

Toronto is an American team (looking at the map)

Let's be real here it's not just U.S that doesn't really take Raptors seriously, even Canadian news sports don't. TSN or sportnet hardly talk about basketball, let alone Raptors basketball. Only true fans have been since day 1. Most don't care and others just jump on the bandwagon when they have success.

Bros a whole industry

Why lou on the cover should've been mcgrady or damon

Hey man! How do i contact you asap.

I hate the narrative that the raptors only won because of the warriors injuries. They beat them when klay played too, even though they try to pretend he was out the whole series. The raptors also beat the warriors both regular seasons games with kd and Kawhi didn't even play one of them

American players are just a bunch of divas nowadays

Player can only move to USA if they leave raptors Because ALL THE OTHER TEAMS ARE IN USA there’s LITERALLY no other team in Canada 🇨🇦 to go to So no other choice

As a raptors fan there has never been a game when a ref has been on our side

Crossing the border can be a pain in the ass for players and their families. But I'd say it's the tax code in Canada that ruins Canadian sports teams. It was amazing watching my raps win in 2019

great use of ChatGPT

Even with When Toronto Raptors Won The Championship..They Won and then Covid happened next Season...So that too also threw off The Team and also was less talk of Them Winning The Championship because of The Covid..

To my understanding, the lack of US broadcast coverage has more to do with the cost of obtaining rights from Canadian media. ESPN for example has already paid broadcast rights from the NBA but has to pay TSN or Sportsnet to air a Raptors game. If you're within Canada, all Raptors games are blacked out on league pass because of local broadcasts.

Steph’s really that dude

First NBA game was played in Toronto the game of basketball was created by a Canadian and this is the thanks we get

Let's go Clippers nation !!! 🔴🔵

Maybe top players don't want to play for a third-world country.

The NBA loves internationals money but they also now want all the teams to be on US soil and second tier teams everywhere else.

To be fair, the NBA and NBA media turns off a lot of cities and markets. Then people legitimately wonder why the ratings are declining. I mean, the Knicks are viewed as some prestigious franchise. Yet, when looking at their history they haven't accomplished much!

Great analysis, thank you! I need some advice: My OKX wallet holds some USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (alarm fetch churn bridge exercise tape speak race clerk couch crater letter). What's the best way to send them to Binance?

I’ve been watching the raptors since the 2004-2005 season as a kid religiously. The raptors is the team that star players take a shit on.

Why does everyone say Toronto is a small market team, the greater Toronto area literally has a population of 6.4 million

Don’t take Kawhi’s decision to go back home personally. He delivered a championship and wanted to go home. Nothing wrong with that. However, I will never forget the NBA explicitly showing not a single Raptors’ highlight in their regular season highlight reel for the award ceremony for the 2019 season. You know? The season the Raptors were the champions?

Almost 6 years later you'd think Stephen A Smiths heart would explode inside of his chest if he mentioned the the raps winning the title without mentioning the GS injuries.

the raptors are always treated as an after thought whenever the sports media mentions basketball

It absolutely is a real thing. The reason: $. While the Raptors have proven to be more than profitable for the league and a worthy franchise, the financial incentives and biases that exist influence nearly everything from media, roster, officiating, etc.

Historically the Raptors should be held in high respect not only because they won in 2019 but because the very first game was hosted in Toronto vs new York.

We create the game of ball host the first nba game ever and create stars or started aka, paskal, Norman Powell, vanvleet, and look show we made Lowry a star because on Memphis and Houston he was just a starter

10/10 video

Because eastern Canada sucks, Toronto is becoming a 3rd world country and taxes are ridiculous thanks to all the useless maggots that vote for liberals.

For the deep thinkers: this is why LBJ plays harder against us. He knows what's going on....

Toronto is the fifth biggest city in North America

I also hate the cold winter narrative, minnesota, and milwakee both have colder winters then Toronto and shares the same or similar climates to many cities such as Chicago, detroit, indiana, cleveland, boston, philadelphia, even New York not much difference. Then they try to use the same excuse for Vancouver but Vancouver in the winter is even more mild than any of these cities mentioned lol

Never thought about this 😭

Nice video bro

Crazy how they have never made a deal with the airports for the raptors team

Too many east Indians. That's the real reason.
