Jul 7, 2008 - I agree the Americans treat Canada like shit we need more Canadian b-ball teams...

fgarcia20 Says:

Jul 7, 2008 - they are the worst team in the nba...

GrimReaper2K Says:

Jul 7, 2008 - Same Here. Vancouver and Toronto are perfect for the NBA!! Why they let the Grizzlies go to Memphis?! I hope that I or someone will become a billionaire and get the Grizzles back to Vancouver, and to change the logo and the colors back!

GrimReaper2K Says:

Jul 7, 2008 - Better or Worse, the Grizzlies franchise should've remain in Vancouver.

rondel Says:

Jul 7, 2008 - yeahh we treat USA with soo much respect we gave emm too many hockey teams! and in basket-ball all we get is the raptors(fav team by the way) dont get me started with base-ball...they took the expos from us :(

DaMnShOw3 Says:

Jul 7, 2008 - No,clippers are the worst team :D

GrimReaper2K Says:

Jul 7, 2008 - Yeah, but they are trying...

TRUCKWM Says:

Jul 7, 2008 - this team was a discrace to the NBA

TRUCKWM Says:

Jul 7, 2008 - the only player that this team had was big country

fropoy Says:

Jul 7, 2008 - maybe if we had time we could have got better, all new teams suck, they needed more time to trade and draft and sign

thechangs Says:

Jul 7, 2008 - ffs Vancouver has horrible draft picks ffs they could have chosen steve nash or carter then maybe we'd still have vancouver grizzles, same goes with the canucks they chose luc bourdon instead of andrea kopitar! kopitar scores least 30 goals a season and bourdon plays for the minor leaves ffs and now bourdons dead.. wtf vancouver....

TRUCKWM Says:

Jul 7, 2008 - steve francis made a good desicin by not playing for this shit team

VViewer92 Says:

Jul 7, 2008 - ...the raps are getting lonely up here. same with the jays. if nyone here thinks canada deserves another sports team (NBA/MLB maybe) then please reply. talking about the grizz, who misses the expos?

VViewer92 Says:

Jul 7, 2008 - while i'm at it, can i discuss a weird pattern with both teams? think about it, the expos would have won the world series in '94, but there was a strike. bryant reeves was a good player with vancouver till '98, when the players striked and his performance declined. is this a coincidence, or do sports leagues have a grudge against us canadians?

TRUCKWM Says:

Jul 7, 2008 - idk what all you people are complaining about maybe if they were any GOOD then they would still be in vancouver

GmonyZB Says:

Jul 7, 2008 - live on grizzlies.....live on

Freenbean Says:

Jul 7, 2008 - I heard Michael Wilbon on the radio say that Mr. Heisley is one unhappy owner- he feels David Stern sold him a bill of goods with that move to Memphis (he wanted to move to Anaheim but the league blocked that) He's losing money and dumping salary, and has a bad team again.

xlibman Says:

Jul 7, 2008 - I didn't knew there was 2 canadian NBA teams? I thought there was only the Toronto Raptors. I guess it's because I am not too much into NBA. This sucks they moved though. What was the average attendance per season?

fgarcia20 Says:

Jul 7, 2008 - I don't know about their attendance figures, but I do know that at the time this video was made, their franchise record was 29-135. Based on that alone, I can't imagine they were able to sustain high attendance figures.

archDeluxxe Says:

Jul 7, 2008 - it wasn't the attendance, it was the canadian dollar that killed the franchise (would be a different story now). That, and the fact that all the big businesses in Canada backed the Raptors and hung the Grizz out to dry. Also, David Stern not caring about the Pacific Northwest markets didn't help either (see. seattle).

StoneSmokeRiver Says:

Jul 7, 2008 - Losing is........ Losing a francise to fucking Memphis of all fucking places!!!! Vancover will never ever get a chance at a francise Again! FUCKERS!

Nashluongo4mvp Says:

Jul 7, 2008 - Show some respect to Luc Borudon RIP, that topic should NEVER be discussed again.YOU can't judge an accident a bad pick when he hasn't even played in a sophmore season.

TRUCKWM Says:

Jul 7, 2008 - shitt he was better than every shit player on the grizzlies

TRUCKWM Says:

Jul 7, 2008 - the nba isnt about colors or logos its about basketball

canucks676 Says:

Jul 7, 2008 - shareef was the bomb, DAVID STERN: CUT THE BULLSHIT! NO ONE GIVES A SHIT ABOUT BASKETBALL IN MEMPHIS AND OKLAHOMA CITY! BRING THE GRIZ AND THE SONICS BACK
