Several teams have taken pre-season trips to Canada in recent years, and frequently the Canadian teams have held their own pretty well. Of course, this gives the US teams a chance to take a nice vacation trip, as well as working out some of the kinks ahead of schedule.
However, there is also a flip side opportunity. For the Canadian kids who might be looking to play in the US, this is a great opportunity to show their stuff to American coaches, as well as NBA scouts. And the proximity makes everything more workable and less expensive than some of the junkets that teams take. I think the whole concept is a great idea.
