NBA adds five new teams
New York- The NBA has announced that it will add 5 new NBA teams for the 1989-1990 NBA season.
In addition to the previously announced Minnesota Timberwolves, and Orlando Magic, the league has also announced adding three more teams.
The league has added another team to Charlotte, with the arrival of the Charlotte Bobcats. Owner JC Fricks had this to say in the press conference, "I am excited to be apart of the ever-growing National Basketball Association, and hope to build our team up into a prime contender."
Vancouver was the next destination for the NBA. The NBA said they were deciding between a Louisiana team (possibly the New Orleans Gators) and Vancouver. The league decided expansion over money.
"New Orleans gave us more money, but we decided to bring the NBA to Canada. We hope to get an owner who can possibly fund an arena for us. Right now, the Grizzles will play at the General Motors Palace."
The last team went to Toronto, which made it 2 teams for Canada. People in Toronto stood outside the Sky Dome screaming, "WE ARE THE RAPTORS!"
New General Manager Ryan Thomas had this to say.
"I am excited to bring another team to Toronto. I am happy for Canada for having two teams. But, only one team will make the playoffs, and that will be us."
There will be no expansion draft, and each team's rosters are expected to be made up of undrafted rookies.
"Your prize is Derrick Coleman, or Gary Payton. Congratulations for entering the league a fail!" said a sign in New Orleans, where fans were rallied to see who was chosen.
Another said, "Screw you Jazz."

Dallas Mavericks 114 (2-0) @Los Angeles Clippers 92 (1-1)
The Mavs' first road game was a success, even if it was on Halloween.
Rolando Blackman had 24 points and 13 assists, on route to leading the Mavs to a 114-92 victory over the Los Angeles Clippers and Ron Harper.
Harper, who had an unbelievable 39 points and 13 assists in a win over Golden State, was kept quiet, and had only 21 points. Danny Manning was the only player besides Harper that was actually a threat to the Mavs, with 18 points. Starting Point Guard Gary Grant had a quiet double-double, with 10 points and 11 assists.
Besides Blackman, other Mavs stepped it up as well. Ron Tarpley provided a spark off the bench, scoring 20 points, and grabbing 6 rebounds. Sam Perkins nailed two three pointers late to give the Mavs a sure win. His 16 points also helped. High-scoring machine Adrian Dantley only had 15 points, but his 7 rebounds gave many fast break opportunities, like the ones that helped Perkins nail the two threes.Mavericks
