Alex sits down with former Raptors owner John Bitove Jr. to discuss the franchise’s early days, from securing an NBA team for Toronto to shaping its identity. They dive into the original branding process—including how close the team came to a lime-green Raptor logo—the challenges of hosting games at the SkyDome, and his biggest argument with David Stern.
