i think most people know the downfall of the grizz was *DIRECTLY* because of Stu Jackson.

I think most of us went to see a game, for free of course. a team can only take losing for so long before it's fanbase disappears.

I feel the exact same way...maybe he was in "kahoots" with stern to get rid of the team in vancouver..as he probably just wanted a team in Laffland

That game was awesome. MJ gave a show in Vancouver. That was the 72-10 Bulls team right there. The Bulls team showed a lot of sportsmanship by keeping the game close. That Bulls team could have finished the game by half time already. They did the same for the Raptors that year where they kept the game close. But the Raptors team stepped it up and actually beat the Bulls - MJ's supposed game winning last shot wasn't counted because time ran out.

uh, no. A team plays each team in the other conference twice every season.

Therefore, the bulls have come 6 times. 3 times was when Jordan played for them.

Probably not gonna happen. When the Grizzlies were here, so many games weren't even half-full! Unless something has changed here in the last 15 years, there is simply TOO SMALL a fan base here.

It'd be stupid if they moved an NBA team here, just to choke after 2-3 seasons.

there are a few cities in the US that can barely support their teams

Memphis Grizzlies, Charlotte Bobcats, Indiana Pacers and some others

the thing is that no one wants to watch a Canadian team play except Canadians and most of us are already Rap fans

we'll be stuck at the bottom for at least half a decade, dont have money to get FAs and no stars would ever want to come anyway, not including the taxes they'll pay too

but i do want the Bobcats to move here or at least Seattle, they deserve a team
