Waht you have described good sir is the curse of Toronto....
Can anyone say R-E-B-U-I-L-D!
It seems we are like a farm team with NBA uniforms and stadium. Soemtimes it feels like we simply develope talent so they can leave or be trded away for nothing.
Aint nuthin done changed!
I dont think the franchise has been around long enough for us to say that we are cursed. We've made the playoffs in 3 out of 11 years...not too shabby. The only players I can think of that wanted out were T-Mac, Vince and Damon...T-Mac and Vince leaving had nothing to do with the city, but the circumstances (Mac didn't wanna be second fiddle and Vince was a loser )
