Six Best Markets for NBA Expansion

[@LeonardWeirich-1964]

I could see future expansion in Seattle, Las Vegas, Buffalo, Baltimore, Kansas City, and Louisville

East: Louisville, Pittsburgh, and St. Louis
West: Seattle, Vegas and San Diego

I foresee the NBA expanding to 36 teams by 2036 and I can see Seattle, Vegas, Mexico City, Vancouver OR Montreal and two other US cities. Vancouver is larger than Vegas, and Montreal is as big as Seattle. As for West vs East... if 4 of the 6 teams are Western teams, then just one Western team needs to move east to keep the 18-18 ratio ... top candidate to move east would be Minnesota (it is so far from all the other Western Teams) as they are very close to Milwaukee, Chicago, and Indianapolis while Memphis and New Orleans are already very close to the 3 Texas teams and even closer to Oklahoma City which happens to be the closest Western Conference team to Minneapolis.

The major issue with your combo city suggestions is that Cincinnati and Louisville hate each other, as do KC and STL.
