I'll cheer for Lin as long as it's not against my own team. Some of us are still loyal fans.

I keep forgetting the Raptor Tank is in full effect.
+1. The Raptors need the # 1 or # 2 pick in the 2012 draft; along with that pick, Bargnani and Jonas Valanciunas, we should be decent next season (maybe playoffs)

city of toronto website wrote:The City of Toronto's visible minority population increased by 10.6 per cent since 2001, and by 31.8 per cent since 1996.
The top five visible minority groups in Toronto were:
South Asian at 298,372 or 12.0 per cent of our population;
Chinese at 283,075 or 11.4 per cent;
Black at 208,555 or 8.4 per cent;
Filipino at 102,555 or 4.1 per cent;
Latin American at 64,860 or 2.6 per cent.
and these stats are from 2006, gone up since

Re: Raptors fans were cheering for the Knicks?
The sad part is that the Raptors have actually been playing pretty good recently and were a couple of bad possessions away from a 3 game win streak. Not like we need the wins.

Yeah I've been to Canada once and like 90% of the people I saw around Vancouver BC were asian.
Somewhere trying not to offend Texas Chuck.

Toronto is one of (if not THE) most multicultural cities in the world. I like how Americans think Canada is 100% white. Toronto has more non-whites than whites and actually embraces it instead of, you know, trying to get rid of them like certain the most racist state in the US.

Re: Raptors fans were cheering for the Knicks?
I'm Canadian and I find a lot of ignorant Americans from Arizona, Wisconsin, Missouri and the Mid West in general. They stick out like a sore thumb, in terms of ignorance and being openly racist.
Thank goodness I'm from Toronto and not a place like Phoenix, Arizona. I would not want to be a South Asian / Indian guy there; they would call me 'Apu' or ask me stupid questions about camels, snakes and life in the jungle

Re: Raptors fans were cheering for the Knicks?
Toronto and New York are actually quite similar culturally...and somewhat close geographically
