What cities do you guys think should get either an NBA team or NBA D-League team? Here's a few I came up with.

NBA

1. Las Vegas, NV
2. Norfolk/Hampton/Virginia Beach (Hampton Roads), VA
3. Tucson, AZ
4. Louisville, KY (not sure about this one, college b-ball already is very popular in Kentucky)
5. San Diego, CA (I think the Clippers should relocate to SD)

NBA D-League

1. Charleston, WV
2. Wichita, KS
3. Anchorage, AK
4. El Paso, TX
5. Omaha, NE

you do realize that the clippers already tried that whole SD thing, right?



sure it was a while ago, but I don't think the results would be much better this time

no way tucson could support a team and phoenix would pitch a fit if they tried .... i could maybe see a D-League team there

there really isn't a huge eastern presence - maybe a team in rochester or syracuse (not buffalo with a team already in erie), a team in cincy to grab some of the kentucky fans, as well as reach up to toledo

maybe a DL team in st. louis or KC

i don't mind el paso - would be a good geographical fit between hidalgo and ABQ

anchorage would never work - simply way too much $$ that would need to be spent to get to/from on a regular basis

Wont be a city in FLorida although I would love to see Tampa Bay get it's own team. I'm guessing Seattle or San Diego
