Only Canadian team in the NBA. Was a expansion draft team in 1995 and usually made fun of by other teams but Raptors always proves them wrong. Won the championship in 2019 the first time they made a finals, and first time they won it but it won’t be the last.
Dude1: Warriors gonna sweep the Raptors.

Smart dude: Nope, Toronto Raptors in 6

Canada's lone NBA team. Not always a success on the court, but always a fiasco off of it. Has some of the best fans in sports, but often is disrespected by both American and Canadian media members who couldn't find their ass with both hands. Finally rid themselves of the cancer known as Vince Carter. God's basketball team along with Syracuse.
"The Toronto Raptors are going to be contenders for the next decade. Book it."

"People who disrespect the Toronto Raptors know nothing. They are either out-of-the-loop Americans or clueless Canadians who love hockey so much they have wet dreams about Pierre McGuire."

The Toronto Raptors are the only NBA basketball team based in Canada. They are part of the Atlantic Division of the Eastern Conference. The team was established in 1995, along with the Vancouver Grizzlies, as part of the NBA's expansion into Canada. When the Grizzlies relocated to Memphis, Tennessee in 2001, the Raptors became the only Canadian team in the NBA. They originally played their home games in the SkyDome, before moving to the Air Canada Centre (ACC) in 1999.
Though many on the Urban Dictionary website purport the team to "suck", their supposed lack of success is put into question with the capturing of the 2006-07 Atlantic Division title.
Following the success of the 2006–07 season, Toronto became one of the league leaders in season ticket sales for the 2007–08 season, and their fanbase remains one of the most consistent in the NBA.
Dude: See that Toronto Raptors game last night?
Other dude: Yeah man! That dunk by Bosh (over Wallace) was sick, wicked, and nasty!

The only NBA team in Canada

The past few seasons have been unsuccessful, causing major disrespect from Bandwagon Warriors and Cavs fan.

The Raptors got to shake their tail in the 2015-16 season after making the playoffs. Although 95% of NBA fans predicted a sweep by Indiana... And Miami... And Cleveland, Toronto proved their dumbass wrong.

The Raptors are the underdogs, even when playing the Lakers..
However, they are a very unexpected team to make it here.
