NBA Expansion
-
I understand that serious talks may be underway to expand the NBA to 32 teams.....which I think is about right. But...where:
A#1 location is Seattle. If expansion happens, it is almost certain that Seattle will be accepted for a team.
2d team: Less certain here. You could go with teams in cities that already have big league teams, but no NBA: Baltimore/Pittsburgh/Buffalo/Cincinnati/Jacksonville/Nashville/ Kansas City/St. Louis/Columbus/San Diego/Las Vegas
Or, you could do what the NBA likes to do: Put a team in a market where there are no other major teams...i.e. choose a town that would become a one horse town. There I see the following as the only real potentials:
The Tidewater: Va. Beach/Norfolk It is THE largest Metropolitan area in the USA without a team in the 4 mains sports:
Greensboro NC (including Winston-Salem...Raleigh Durham which does have hockey
Louisville
Hartford.
the other possibility would be to put another team in Canada: Montreal....or one of the western cities.
My preference: Virginia.
