NBA - Main

If only they were actually those prices you say.. Go ahead and factor in the fees before purchases.

Vancouver would absolutely thrive with an nba franchise today! Most beautiful city in Canada! and I was born and raised in Ontario

That ticket pricing is wild. I never understood this, as with the multi-million dollar contracts players have, it would be like paying multiple actors in a movie huge pay, then hoping to sell tickets to the movie for $2.

I would love for Memphis to lose their team and bring them back to Vancouver. But if you’ve watch The Grizzly Truth, you’ll know why they moved.

I don’t care for Memphis but I don’t need to because the league probably does. Not to mention that Memphis has had a team for so long at this point. The fan base has developed at this point it would suck for them honestly.

This just feels like a vent. If you want to steal a team, just take Charlotte or New Orleans lmao

Memphis is poor as fuck. Doesn’t mean they don’t deserve a team. Means they deserve better paying jobs and more time off.

Move the Thunder back to Seattle 😥

Fuck the potential owners in Vancouver, and fuck the fact they'd easily charge $100 a ticket for an empty stadium and a dog shit team. Hate it here, but I'd also be in line for season tickets... So I dunno

I'd love a team here in van, but too many caveats + I dunno how to reconcile taking away grit n grind history which made me a fan of basketball and specifically the Memphis iteration of the grizz

For any Grizzlies fans who don't like this idea, we can just send the Lakers back to Minneapolis.

Long story short: you all didn't support the grizzlies. We do.

When you show love for a team, maybe you'd get a team.

Give Montreal a team. They’d watch it.

If grizzlies come to Vancouver Ja won’t have a gun to show on ig

Let’s get it done!!! Then we can have a Portland vs Vancouver game and it’ll only take me 30 min to cross the bridge for the game.

Oh wait, wrong Vancouver 🥲😂

Yeah okay, you can be upset that we took your team & at Steve Francis, but saying “oh look their attendance is bad, they don’t deserve their team” is completely ignoring the fact that the team is currently absurdly injured and in a small population city. Idk what basketball you want to watch, but we’re currently starting:

• A 5’7” G league point guard who our fans over the summer weren’t even sure would ever see meaningful nba minutes

• a center signed off the free agent market out of desperation who, in his 13 seasons of the nba, has only broken 24 MPG twice: his sophomore season, and year 13: the current season (14 mpg last 2 seasons for reference)

• a borderline all-star level shooting guard who is clearly out of his depth being the only person who can do anything on offense

• legit a random wing or big who probably wouldn’t make the 8 man rotation on any healthy, non-wizards/pistons teams

• Reigning DPOY playing a lot of minutes out of his natural position

The team is more crippled than Jimmy from South Park. Our injury list could probably have a better record than our current rotation. Also: the 2019 warriors were 6th in attendance; when Steph & Klay got hurt for 2020, they dropped to 16th. We were 22nd the last 2 seasons, 27th now with all the injuries. We will go back up some when Ja returns. Despite our injuries and small city size, it seems there’s 3 other teams who somehow have less attendance than us still.

Revive the pnw rivalries of old

You’ll never get the Grizzlies back. The natural order of things means they’ll go to Nashville next.

Man. Why we just catching strays all the time.

I still have a bunch of old Grizzlies crap like a growth chart poster with the mascot and books. Maybe if they came back I could sell it!

Monkey Paw. Grizzlies come back and Washington gets their team back. Vancouver, Wa Grizzlies.

$2 tickets sounds great

You have a better chance of running into a Grizzly bear in Memphis then seeing the Memphis Grizzlies make the playoffs.

David Stern himself said letting the Grizz leave Vancouver was the biggest mistake of his whole career!

With Seattle too, we'll have back the complete Northwest road swing (SF-SAC-POR-VAC)

The league could benefit from up to SIX expansion teams. Lots of talent to go around? Enough point guards? Well, only way to find out.

Good to hear that there are still lots of NBA fans in Vancouver, BC. As a Grizzlies fan, umm, not sure why some cities have teams and others don't. Could have been worse -- the Grizzlies could have ended up in Louisville.

I think Vancouver, BC would perfectly complement Seattle (expansion team). I also like the idea of the NBA invading the Montreal sports market.

Austin, TX has no major big 4 sports team. They deserve one. But, honestly if the Grizzlies relocate, the Spurs maybe should relocate to Austin.

Las Vegas deserves a team (maybe). Although they should have been the FIRST pro sports league out there, now they are looking into an over-saturated sports market.

If the Grizzlies don't relocate, Nashville could be a great market for an NBA expansion team.

Beat the NFL (and everyone else) to 36 teams.

Two conferences with 18 teams. Two divisions of 9 teams in each conference.

Can you imagine the expansion drafts?

... as a Memphis Grizzlies fan, I am getting a bit tired with our Front Office. The team is also gonna try to shake us down for new improvements. Although, secretly, I think they want a brand-new arena. One of the local radio guys accidentally brought this up a few months ago.

IF Memphis lost the Grizz BUT got a new expansion team a few years from now, I would almost be cool with that -- even though I am still on Ja Morant Island (bought the T shirt AND have the shoes).

"Trade" the Grizzlies to Las Vegas but retire the name (let Vancouver have it back). Send us the Athletics (but let the name stay in Oakland), and the Raiders -- the MEMPHIS RAIDERS sounds great!

Vegas gets new NFL and NBA expansion teams soon.

Memphis also gets an NBA expansion team soon as well as a WNBA team.

I think ALL the major leagues should have at least 34 to 36 teams. And, I think having at least 2 teams/leagues in any particular market offers synergistic upside. ... easier to get state funds/tax revenues for MULTIPLE teams.

Ja Morant in Las Vegas would be fun. But, maybe we do need a Vancouver Grizzlies team again. Memphis can get a new team in a few years -- and let the NEW ownership group fully fund a brand new arena. Maybe we can just promote our G League team name aka The Memphis Hustle. ... maybe the FedEx Forum in Memphis can host the Las Vegas' NBA team's G League outpost in the mean time. Getting the Memphis Athletics and the Memphis Raiders would more than make up for not having an NBA team for a few seasons. It would also help the Memphis Tigers get some fans/momentum/hype back.

Ja ain't allowed in Canada... Probably
