Two thoughts:
First, why does a Canadian team play the Star Spangled Banner? It’s not like it’s something like Formula One.
Second, lol. Whine and complain about us all you want, but your little country has already been taken over by Indians.
Toronto is the only Canadian team, so they play both O Canada and the Star-Spangled Banner before games because all the other teams are US based
More importantly, why is a foreign team in the NBA? 🤔
James Naismith, the inventor of basketball is actually Canadian, but to speak on the Raptors, Toronto is the third largest market in North America, after NYC and LA
In short, "money." 🦀
That's usually the shortest answer to most any question.
If that answer is too long, "cash" or "$$$" also work.
