Vancouver supposed to be the new Hong Kong though. I hear nothing but good things about that city

except it cost a 1mill for a shytty ass house there



Chinese people inflated that market, and they had to cut their visas off.

 

[Piff Huxtable]

nothing against Vancouver or Canada, but the Grizzlies in Memphis >>> Grizzlies in Vancouver

Many people in Canada are barely around black people

Hell when I went to hs in gr 12 a suburb in Toronto I was the only black person in a school of 900


And yeah people had pre conceived notions hell I made the basketball tram even though I sucked just because I was black, but after getting to know me and vice versa everyone was cool as hell

What you say about Vancouver is interesting, but @Emperor_ReinScarf said white people still treat him in Canada though, so it it really the utopia you make it sound like?

 

[MikelArteta]

Yup the only major knock on van in terms of demographics is the tiny black pop

Percentage wise its smaller than any big city in Canada at only 1 percent

But Canada as a whole has a small black pop at only 2.9percent

Even Toronto that has nearly 400k black people were only 8 percent same as Seattle

white folks are a minority in van

 

[MikelArteta]

Only avenue they cut was the tfw
investor

Many houses and condos lie dormant as Chinese businessmen just use it as a offshore investment.

except it cost a 1mill for a shytty ass house there

go to Vancouver play for 2 years and then bounce... nikkas have no idea how these owners are. I saw Isaiah on nba tv talking about players not wanting to play in certain cities and he said

They will trade u however other team owners would have your name posted on the wall like be careful he could be a problem even if u are not, but u getting labeled and could later down the road fukk u up in free agency..

Vancouver should get a team back. While I'm at it, so should Seattle. Bring back the Portland/Seattle/Vancouver Pacific Northwest rivalry. Once it was apparent the Grizzlies were doomed, the attendance was terrible. But before that, Vancouver was a very good crowd and they had great fans. Besides David Stern (former NBA commissioner) admitting that the Seattle situation was a huge regret of his (despite his involvement to get the team to OKC), he also admitted that the Vancouver situation bothered him.

Random thing to think about: even Montreal, bilingual and cold Canadian city that supposedly only cares about hockey, also sells out during NBA preseason games. And some people are shocked like, "They love basketball here." While most talks about NBA expansion include the usual cities like Seattle or Vegas or sometimes even Louisville, a few people threw Montreal's name in the hat too.

Canada loves basketball too and it will be good for the league when it's not just the Raptors representing the entire country. On a side note, if I were Francis, I would have gone to Vancouver and played hard. With the Canadian dollar being stronger against the American dollar now than it was then, the whole money issue isn't as severe now. Plus like mentioned in the thread, if you have money Vancouver is a great city. If you are moving to Vancouver as an NBA player selected in the lottery with All-Star potential, living in Vancouver and having a good home is not going to be a problem at all.

Vancouver is a amazing city.to be a millionaire there would be ..all the hidden gem Persians..pawgs and Asians.bytches..every body is different though.allot of us see and get the money and can adapt in any city.some people can't think out side the box.I'm not mad at Steve for doing what he did he made a choice and stuck with it.me personally naaaa.i would went...one Wierd thing about the video.dude said "it takes 8-9 hours to fly to Vancouver,how is my family going to come see me? " ..that was didn't make allot of sense...i would fly anywhere in the world for millions to do what I love and get whoever needs a flight a fight.simple ...
...Vancouver has some of the most passionate fans in the world..it's just something about the west coast.people stay ready to riot ...

[Cynic]

Alaska...Except for the free healthcare, best education variety of things to do and our cacs aren't 1/10th as racist as Americans but I don't even bother trying to check people who want to live in a small bubble. I want to see the world while dudes don't want to leave cities like Cleveland, Detroit and Memphis

"Seeing the world" is not moving to Canada...it's the same fukking continent you pompous traitor..... :gotdamnbreh:

Shout out to those who habitually live in Europe and actually cross the Atlantic ocean :leonadis:
