Vet min is below the poverty line in Vancouver
After taxes and fees those $2 tickets are actually $6.50 USD each
Cope and seethe, Canadian
Exchange rates mean if it’s not a sellout every single night them it’s not worth it. A team like New Orleans can have a 30% reduction in attendance and still make as much money as Vancouver. That’s tough.
Yea cause it was such a success last time.
No more teams for Canada

It would make sense. Vancouver has nearly 3x the market. 5x if you include the whole province. Not too mention actual grizzly bears.
They'll be back once Ja's suspension is over lol
Holy shit those ticket prices are nuts

Also Vancouver Grizzlies is a top ten name.

Absolutely. Teams owners being able to move to different cities is the worst thing about American sports. Imagine if the Glazers suddenly decided to move United out of Manchester… the city would burn down.
This might be a good time to point out that the largest markets in the US/Canada without an NBA team are:
- Montreal
- Seattle
- San Diego
- St. Louis
- Vancouver
- Pittsburgh
- Cincinnati
- Las Vegas
Given the size of the NBA, many teams near the top of this list would be worthy candidates for expansion, and better locations for a franchise than many current franchises.
(As a note: Tampa was omitted, because of this weird thing where if a league has a team in Tampa [MLB, NHL, NFL], it won't have one in Orlando, and if a league has a team in Orlando [NBA, MLS], it won't have one in Tampa. It'll probably be the Tampa-Orlando metro area in the near future anyways. Also: Baltimore, because it's now the Washington-Baltimore metro area.)
And the sonics back to seattle

They should have never left, it's crazy how little amount of time they spent in Canada. Would NEVER happen in this day and age. They left after SIX seasons only!
Vancouver is lit too. It's a city of royals.

I mean I agree with your overall point but there’s some pretty glaringly obvious reasons why things aren’t going so well for them right now lol
