youll never be a huge attraction. just better hope for jonas to blossom and either trade him or hope he can draw interest from other players to wanna play with him. good drafting is a must too, which means you need to tank lol

We suck at tanking lol. But yeah, that's what I'm saying. We need our draft picks to blossom and recruit players to the city. I swear when we had VC, I heard that Shaq was semi-interested in coming to Toronto.

Although Shaq also mentioned this about Toronto in 2010...

Update: A reader e-mail alerted us to NBA bylaws that compensate for the tax difference in Canada. The rule limits taxation on signing bonuses American players earn from Canadian teams.

Earlier: Shaquille O'Neal had this to say on U.S.-born players not wanting to play in the one NBA city north of the border, in an interview with AskMen.com:

It’s not that. It’s the double taxes that deter players from going there. Also Bosh obviously couldn’t handle the pressure, so he had to go join two other people to help him out. Listen to what I tell you Toronto is in the top three NBA cities for every NBA player. Trust me on that, brother.

so many athletes praise toronto and does toronto at the same time. you just need to build through the draft and find 'diamond in the rough' free agents.
