Cities without NBA teams?

The Sonics are possibly moving. Heres a list of cities that I think need a NBA franchise. Louisville, San Deigo, Baltimore, Oklahoma City, Kansas City, Las Vegas, St Louis?



Any other cites in consideration? What city deserves a team?

Providence RI im so lonely here mayne smallest state we need sumthin!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
Well they can't all have teams.. rapid expansion will leave some clubs bankrupt.
Baltimore would support a team the best out of the cities you have listed. San Diego, much like Miami has too many things to do, so even though there's plenty of people, they wouldn't support the NBA that well. When Miami was bad, nobody went neither.



Las Vegas will never happen because of legal gambling in that city.
I would like to say San Diego but southern California already has 2 teams, the Lakers and the Clippers so i think they have their share of teams already. Oklahoma City has an adopted team in the Hornets so they would also go at the bottom of my list. I like to see teams spread out over the country so i think that Baltimore might be just a little too close to the Washington Wizards in D.C. So after narrowing these down a bit, i think that out of your list of locations i would like to see a team either in Kansas City, St. Louis or Las Vegas. I think Las Vegas would be pretty cool. Can you imagine the amount of money getting put on them at the sports books if they had a home team?!?!?
The way that Oklahoma CIty took in the Hornets, and sold out their arena for a team that wasn't really theirs was nice. They should get 1st shot for their own team. Las Vegas should be 2nd, but there will always be the gambling issues. I would like Tampa Bay to get some consideration, as well as St. Louis and San Diego.
I think Hawaii desperately needs an NBA team and if Toronto can do it so can a city in Hawaii.
You cant just go adding tons to teams to any city with an arena. You will dilute the talent just like the NHL did.



- Louisville loves basketball but has no NBA level arena.



- San Diego probably also has no NBA level arena. How would the Lakers and Clippers feel. Might get too crowded down there.



- Baltimore is probably too close to Washington.



- OK City showed they will support a team when the Hornets were there. Need to upgrade the arena to get a team of their own.



- KC and St Louis both have arenas and there are no teams in the middle of the country. One of them might be a good choice.



- Vegas needs a NBA level arena.
Sonic's owner will head for the Midwest. OKC first and KC.
I think either St. Louis or Las Vegas would be top consideration if Sonics decide to move out of pacific northwest...which I doubt would happen....St. Louis is one of great sports town and everybody loves the Vegas baby. lol
Buffalo NY needs a new team. We used 2 have the Buffalo Braves. Now they are the LA Clippers. Oklahoma City has a team. The New Orleans/Oklahoma City Hornets.

Thats all I got



GO SPURS GO!!!
MAYBE HOLLYWOOD OR MICCHIGAN OR SALT LAKE



IM NOT VERY SURE BUT I WANTED TO HELP
Word on the street is that the Sonics are most likely headed to OK City if they end up leaving Seattle. They're going to have a solid young team next year and the years to come, so maybe that'll be enough to bring the fans back and keep them there.
Michigan: Great Lake Giants
Frankly, they will not move all the way east as they are a Western team. Unless re-alignment occurs, travel expenses would be a true burden for a Western conference team. New Orleans, Minnesota and Memphis all have large travel expenses owners hate paying. However, there is a serious untapped market in the southern part of the Midwest. I believe Oklahoma City, St. Louis, Kansas City.



Due to ownerships wanting large corporations to support major league teams, St. Louis is probably the most feasible option. If they stay out west, look for them to end up in Las Vegas.
Tampa Bay



San Francisco



Pittsburgh



Cincinnati



Buffalo
San Diego they need to make sure some spotlight is off LT so he doesnt go crazy from all the attention
Oklahoma City. They had more sellout games than any other team during the regular season last year.
