The way you combat the undesirable city dilemma is you build a culture that attracts players. Baltimore isn’t the most desirable city to live in in the NFL and yet they consistently are able to draw players to the team because they have such a good culture and reputation. Kawhi aside (he is a special case imo given the past) Toronto is currently seemingly building that in the NBA. I don’t look at the Flames in the same vein.
