>i'd like to believe if you're a young kid from toronto.
>and you know who drake is
>and you know who tristan thompson, andrew bennett and andrew
>wiggins are

So how is Drake going to get those dudes on the Raptors? Canadians don't have to go through the draft process?


>and the basketball team gets a stylistic and talent upgrade,
>you might wanna go to games.
>and this is why companies like to hook kids young. because
>they get their parents to take em and spend money on merch,
>and hopefully they're hooked in fans who buy tickets when
>they're adults.

Kids are bandwagoners, that like winners, just because someone likes Drake's music is not going to make them a fan of a shitty Raptors team

>it's not a far fetched notion to have drake involved with your
>org, thats why Cal does it w/ UK.

Because Cal is recruiting actual teenagers. NBA free-agents are not teenagers.

>we're in 2013. Things that happened in 2000 or 2004 or 2008
>don't apply and certainly don't apply to young people. they
>don't care. provided things are done right, if they're able to
>score an A+ talent, why tmac/bosh/vince left is of no concern
>to them.

huh? okayplayer, lol...



>you're aware that a lot of movies are filmed in toronto,
>right? cause it looks a lot like new york. is it implausible
>that while on location star a & b are sitting courtside w/
>drake at a raptors game?
>
>know how the hawks would sell out home games vs the knicks?
>have concerts after. busta was one oh, I wish I could remember
>when. But the shit was packed.
>
>if you're a touring musician doing a toronto date, and drake
>is your boy and extends you a ticket you don't go to the game
>and kick it?

>most of these strategies have worked in some aspect in other
>cities and sports.
>no one knows what the end result will be. However when you
>have "cool" on your side, and it's extremely local, you'd be a
>fool not to utilize it.

Celebrities are bandwagoners too, they like WINNERS, they're not flocking to see a shitty Raptors team just because Drake asks them too, lol

Sep 30th 2013

The nets were rebuilding in ny and already had 2 top 20ish
Sep 30th 2013

Sep 30th 2013

           You're looking at it wrong.
Sep 30th 2013
33
                My point is Jay-Z is a much bigger star than Drake by any measure...
Sep 30th 2013
36
                     Perhaps.

                               now you're being obtuse.
Sep 30th 2013
47
                                    The point is the demographic that Drake appeals to and the demographic.....
Sep 30th 2013
53
      Iverson was popular in that same demographic
Sep 30th 2013
56
           He was?
Sep 30th 2013
59
                He filled seats and tons of people loved to watch him.
Sep 30th 2013
60
                     What does any of that have to with teenage girls?
Sep 30th 2013
61
                          Drake is actually not Justin Bieber. Tons of guys like Drake.
Sep 30th 2013
66
                               So are you changing your argument now?
Sep 30th 2013

Sep 30th 2013
