Im pretty sure there's only two Jordan stores in the world one in Chicago and one in Toronto. Kawhi is with Jordan along with drake there could be something to work with if a shoe deal is something he really wants. The Toronto market has a lot of potential.


Yeah, Jordan only has two official stores in North America as his local brand flagships.

They are apparently working on adding a huge billboard near the downtown Jordan store.

OVOxJordanxKawhi's are going to be filthy

Just imagine Kawhi dropping his shoes in Toronto. **** gonna be wild.

It sure was but what I'm saying is the city got potential, DeMar just wasn't big enough to take advantage of it. Look at VC back in the day.

Masai himself quoted as saying "I've talking to his uncle" in todays press conference.

Thats like the first time his uncle was actually acknowledged in the media. Raps already going the distance :lol:

Because Raptor fan activity pays the internet traffic bills for RealGM. You are basically posting in a subforum of the Raps Board.

Yep, I can relate to Kawhi here. I can smile when talking to people, but for some reason I can never smile correctly in a picture, it's so forced and unnatural that I always end up just settling for a little smirk or something

If he's smart he'll do exactly that (smile) and then play his best basketball this season. If I were a gambling man, I would still bet on him signing with LA next offseason.

But hey, I said the same thing last year about George and OKC. So I wish Masai and the Raptors luck.

He got injured from that smile

Damn. That wasnt nearly as funny as I was expecting it to be.

Anybody remember the Lebron/Raptors "IT!" meme? Maybe GOAT twitter vid.

The only thing I can say that I wouldn't like about living in Toronto is that it can get cold. Maybe Kawhi is hellbent on playing for another team (LA) but it wouldn't surprise me if he stayed in Toronto like Paul George stayed in OKC.
