    Nah we don't need another. We have two teams in Nor Cal and two teams in So Cal. That's plenty. OKC is the most deserving town, and if the Blazers go anywhere, it should be there

Paul Allen made it clear in April that his plan is to sell off the Blazers. "We are certainly aware of the recent news out of Portland," Pond President Tim Ryan said. "It is something we are following very closely." [READ] Is this or another move reasonable, I know it's a huge market there but come on...5 teams in one state? [​IMG]</div>I agree, 5 teams in one state is ridiculous. He should move his team to Saint Louis.

It just seems so cool because the Staples Center remains active at all times. Also, if a Lakers' game isn't on on KTLA, I can always switch over to the WB where the Clippers are playing.</span>

    Yeah, the Clippers should move to Oklahoma City. It's not like they'd be leaving behind any history. They wouldn't have to be the little brothers any more. I'm sure OKC would welcome them with open arms.

    Canada should get more NBA teams like the Ottawa Panthers or Montreal Mountaineers or Vancouver Bears. California already have enough teams in the NBA. They should spread the teams more to the North in Canada.

    This is retarted....Why would the NBA want 5 teams in California? They already have 2 teams in LA and Anaheim isnt that far away from Los Angelos. I think that this would definitely take away attendance from Laker and Clipper games as well. Im sure that their owners arent going to be happy. I dont agree with this at all.....It sucks because when Portland was a good team, their fan base was great and they had alot of sell out'. I guess thats what happens when your team sucks for a while.

    Only places I can see getting a new team:-St. Louis (The St. Louis Sonics)-Las Vegas (Las Vegas Blazers)-Oklahoma City-Mexico/Canada. It's all about globalizing the NBA, and, besides Toronto, that's a start.New York is getting the Nets now (correct me if I'm wrong.)I think the NBA should spread out the teams more, fans from smaller places deserve teams.

    I wouldnt mind seeing a team in Las Vegas or Oklahoma City but this team should definetely not be the Trailblazer. They have alot of history although they have been in a ditch the past couple of years. Meh, Ginger Jesus, the Lakers have like the 4th best record in the NBA...

    That would be stupid but hey it makes sense cause anytime you talk about stupidity with an NBA team it is always the Portland Trail Blazers.I mean just look at their history, drafting Sam Bowie over Michael Jordan, adding on players with drug, gun charges, rape, assault charges etc, drafting all high school players in consecutive drafts, made alot of useless trades in this yrs draft, and now this crap.I am never shocked anymore.
