Teams that don't exist, but should

>tfw no Alaskan NBA team

Not just saying this because I'm from here, but Kentucky is a basketball crazy state and having our own franchise would be awesome.

We need a team in Missouri, Tennessee, Kentucky, WASHINGTON, and Alaska which would be really cool

They should just expand to Cincy, you root for all Cincy teams anyway.

...

Honestly, the Kentucky high school basketball tournament should be on primetime television every year

Give one to St. Louis or KC

Memphis isn't in Tennessee?

god the negative headlines write themselves with a name like that

woops

hawaii can host a team. theres enough money and people there to sustain the team and there will always be some players who want to play there. only thing in the way is travel

>implying
1. Minnesota hockey
2. Texas football
3. Indiana basketball
4. California baseball

Louisville wouldn't be a bad option

It's about the size of Buffalo or New Orleans in terms of a TV market, I'm sure an NBA team would thrive there

We can call it the Louisville Punch

Team symbol is a fist

>Honolulu Volcanos
>Honolulu Sharks
>Honolulu Voyagers
So many great name possibilities for pro teams in Hawaii.

last time I checked they don't separate the schools by size so some small teams have gone far before

I grew up in Texas and never saw high school games except a few on Fox Sports Southwest; basically only if the big teams from suburban Dallas were playing and it was at Cowboys Stadium

time zone would not work imagine if they were in a playoff series lol

Hawaii Soccer/FIFA Team

Wow damn. In Minnesota the NHL arena is at capacity and it's a televised event.

That surprises me considering all the shit in media I hear about Texas high school football being so big

quit the timezone meme, I just want a new team in a new place.

It could work if the games in Hawaii started between 12 and 2 Hawaii time, that way it would air around 6-8 EST.

I was at the Wild game the day after the high school tournament they fucking wrecked the ice lol

oh Texas high school football is a huge deal but everybody just goes to the games lol; they don't have to put it on tv
I think in a few years when cameras / streaming are cheaper there will be a lot more coverage of regular season high school games especially big rivalry division games
but for now it all stays local, pretty much

I've always wondered why Kansas doesn't have a professional basketball team considering we have KU, KSU, and WSU for basketball colleges. Would make a great feeder, desu.

>implying you wouldn't watch a live NBA game after last call

California baseball? Wtf are you talking about

They used to marathon the State championship games from lowest level to high all at Jerryworld was comfy af but Houston cried that they wanted a chance to hold it and it wasn't half as successful

pearland kicked ass a few years ago and then there was a fucking bank robbery like the next day lol

Las Vegas NBA Team
Hawaii FIFA Team like Wales and Scotland

they tried to secede
their efforts were struck down as unconstitutional based on racial discrimination lol

I think the whole reason they want to secede is because they want sports team. Plus a lot of them depend on US handouts

Honestly having grown up in South Texas they need a fucking MLS team; the Monterrey Mexicans drive over to the Valley after every FMF game to celebrate, get drunk, shop, whatever and I KNOW they'd fill up a stadium for a chance to watch some of the foreign players or, you know, not have to deal with the rowdiness of the Mexican games

Needs more alliteration

>Huntington Hooters
>Vermont Vandals
>Cheyenne Coyotes
>Louisville Laserbeams
>Honolulu Humpbacks
>Anchorage Ants
>Mississippi Mongooses
>Reno Rhinos
>Carolina Crusaders

>>Louisville Laserbeams

Salt Lake Spikes for any SLC/Utah team

Las Vegas Vagstompers

Most baseball players come out of Cali so I assumed

lol most baseball players come out of Dominican Republic

Omaha needs a pro sports team. Most sports obsessed city in America

A MLS TEAM IN FUCKING ARIZONA

At least they have the college world series every year
