“Once you’re there, you’ll love playing for the Raptors, you’ll love playing for the country. But that fourth, fifth month into the season, you’re like ‘goddamn, I want to go home,'” Williams said during his appearance on the podcast.

quote:

“Because when you play in Toronto, you feel like you’re playing overseas. We can’t wait to go on the road sometimes, just to be in America. It’s like little shite you don’t think of. Channels on your TV, phone bill, you got to get a Canadian bank account. shite like that that people don’t think about. That shite is hard. And if you have kids, you’re raising your kids in Canada.”

People don’t realize America has its own culture until you live somewhere else.

People don’t appreciate it and take it for granted.
