Without the players that were born and bred in America (mostly) they would not have won the championship.

They after all only had 1 player who was born in Canada.

Why would that even matter? Most hockey players are from Europe and Canada, probably close to a third of the MLB players are of Latino origin. Why the fuck would the fans thank the nations the players were born in? This is stupid.

These.

But also Raptor's 3 starters are

Marc Gasol - Spain
Serge Ibaka - Spain/Congo
Pascal Siakkam - Cameroon

Who were all immense for the team.

These are all great posts but I feel like the missed obvious is why haven't cities thanked other cities were played in.

It's not like all the St. Louis Blues players were born in St. Louis. Or even Missouri. Lol.

LOL this is amazing. The dis on Lowery, and he puts up like 17 points in the first quarter tonight. Giving the Raps zero chance and they get it done in 6.
