I don't follow professional basketball much - more of a college basketball person myself. How about you?

Do they still exist? I thought they transferred years ago. But what do I know?!
1_Wizard
I know they were established in 1995 along with the Toronto Raptors as part of NBA expansion to Canada.

Did they ever win anything? For some reason I never think of Canada as a basketball country.

Yes they struggled in the early years but they won a total of 101 games but lost 359

That's a terrible record! Why on earth did your friend support them? It's like my husband supporting the Miami Dolphins, even though they are useless (he's from Miami).

Who knows why anyone support these losing teams? At least the Dolphins are Floridas oldest professional sports team, I guess that could be a reason to support them.

True enough. It must be soul destroying, losing week after week. What else do you know about the Grizzlies?
