If we in Canada were to get another team, it would most likely be in either Montreal or Edmonton, probably not Calgary.

I'd say Virginia, since I'm there/here. It's not right cuz we have so many teams that are actually in VA, and their stadiums in VA, but they carry the name Washington or Baltimore. I wish Virginia would get a real team.

Poll is looking good..

Virginia needs a team for real, They don't even have their own pro team. Atleast have the arena around the Newport News - Norfolk - Virginia Beach area. It's populated, Plus those cities are all near each other. Maybe a good venue (Y)

:lol: I added that city because I thought it was ok. I mean the NBA was the first to go to cities that didn't have any pro team at all.. Hence; San Antonio, Phoenix, SLC Utah.. ect..

Montreal has a pretty good basketball culture because of the CIS, and Edmonton is just an all around good city for sports. Montreal would be the sure choice if it came back to Canada, but the problem Edmonton would run into is always the money. But both cities have new arenas, and with the lack of other major sports other than hockey, basketball would be successful.
