just in case it isn't clear, and I know the media tries to muddy the waters, but people outside of the GTA don't see the raptors as their team. they're not "canada's team" or anything of the sort
I'm delighted every year when they get knocked out so I can stop hearing about them

>>75777107
Fucking this. No one outside of TO cares.

Blue Jays yeah, but not the Raptors

>>75776027
almost every single major US league has a token Canadian team

As for why this is, I don't really know

>>75777107
Most actual NBA fans in Canada side piece the Raptors. You just have to ignore that it's a Toronto team.

>>75777107
should specify that there's only 2 canadian sports channels, and they each equally own 37.5% of the craptors so were force fed their content

>>75779238
probably because toronto has 6 million people

>>75776027
Because they make a lot of money, which is the main reason why any team exists.

When you get out of high-school you'll realize this

>dude le 6ix xD team
Just clear the air, NOBODY calls toronto that

>all the defensive Canadians ITT

Damn. You guys really want to be taken seriously.

Everyone in Canada outside of Toronto loves to see the craptors lose. End of story.

>>75777107
I just wish they weren't named the fucking raptors. >>75777183

>>75777107
Bullshit, if they weren't such a shit team ans ever.were actually in title contention any Canadian basketball fan would be rooting for them

>what does the 6 mean?

You guys know Drake is jewish right?

Help LeBron practice.

>>75780401
Raptors is a pretty good name, but basketball and the team itself are pretty shitty

Canadians watch hockey or football

the power gap in the NBA year after year is astounding

I don't care for NBA, mostly an NFL and NHL fan, because fuck for the last two years it's obviously been either golden state vs cavs in the finals, and this year is no exception, and wouldnt be shocked if next year was the same. at least in NFL or NHL once playoffs come, anything can happen and any team can come win it

>>75780563
does he sit there all game? fuck that looks uncomfortable being all cramped and hunched over for fucking hours on end

>>75781522
I hear ya, but the nhl has had basically three teams in the last ten years. In the NFL the patriots have a free pass to the owl.

>>75781522
Since the Jordan era ended in 1998, every single NBA finals has featured Lebron, Kobe, Shaq or Duncan.

>>75780298
This.

That we the north stuff is such bullshit

>>75781722
Literally just LeBron, Kobe or Duncan if you don't count the 2006 NBA Finals. Could literally pick anyone on those teams to be the 4th person.

I'm east coast and I love my Rapties. Go fuck yourself fake fans.

Raptors really aren't that bad, a top 6-8 team in the NBA, just not good enough to compete for a title.

>>75781660
But the games are still close in those leagues and there are some upsets. Nothing is even close when anyone plays the Cavs or Warriors. I can't get excited about it.

>>75782215
>impact
>Toronto FC

Nobody watches that shit, CFL gets like 10x the tv ratings MLS does. I kekked at Hongcouver Canucks though.

>>75782252
Their back court lifts them and they choke. Need a team, playmakers, bench.

>>75782306
MLS gets great attendance and reg season ticket prices are not that different than hockey (across the NA market)

>>75782252
I'm not a fake fan, I'm not even a fan. I fucking hate Toronto and I fucking hate the stupid we the north stuff I have to deal with for a few weeks till they get btfo
