Seattle expansion talk is gaining traction. If that happens, you gotta add 2 teams for a new total of 32, right? Let’s assume Las Vegas gets the other spot … but this would also work for Kansas City or St. Louis.

Division Realignment should look like this…

NORTHWEST:
Sonics
Blazers
Jazz
Nuggets

PACIFIC (all Cali):
Lakers
Clippers
Kings
Warriors

MIDWEST:
Timberwolves
New Vegas Team (or KC or StL)
Thunder
Mavericks

SOUTHWEST:
Suns
Spurs
Rockets
Pelicans

NORTHEAST:
Celtics
Nets
Knicks
Raptors

ATLANTIC:
Sixers
Wizards
Grizzlies
Cavs

CENTRAL:
Pacers
Bucks
Bulls
Pistons

SOUTHEAST:
Magic
Hawks
Heat
Hornets

I don't see an NBA team in St. Louis. KC would be a much better city to support one. Why does Vegas get all the teams?

It doesn't need contraction. It's not 2005 anymore.

4 teams could disappear tomorrow and no one would notice.

I’m with bada on this. More teams won’t help the league, at least not competitive balance.

With the superteam culture you’d just be adding more also ran’s.

Move the Clippers to Seattle, problem solved.

I'm for expansion just to get the Sonics back. Down the road, if contraction becomes absolutely necessary you can get rid of some mistake franchise like NOP

I love how Butler powers through the contact and gets the call. I bitch about Tatum mostly just for fun but my main issue is how he shies away from contact on drives. If he had just 15% of Butler in him he'd be unstoppable. My worry is you can't teach that you have it or you don't.
