    will Memphis be dropped from our division for OKC or will it remain the same?

    I hope the most "western" located team in the Southwest division gets dropped.... and from looking at a map, looks like its San Antonio..

    Hopefully SA is moved to mountain division...

    And the Sonics, currently in the Mountain division will be in SW division when they move to Oklahoma city.

    So essentially, a San Antonio and Oklahoma City swap :)

    IF this does happen, more chance of division titles for HOUSTON

    That's ridiculous. The NBA is more likely to come to my house and cut off my balls than split up the Texas division.

    It was just tongue in cheek.

    :D

    We all know it is not happening - but was funny anyway.

    It's unlikely for the Texas teams to be in different divisions. I always thought of Memphis as the outsider in the SW division, since it was not in Texas or a neighbor state.

    Perhaps something like this:

    Pacific Division
    Portland Trailblazers
    Sacremento Kings
    Golden State Warriors
    LA Lakers
    LA Clippers

    Mountain Division
    Phoenix Suns
    Utah Jazz
    Denver Nuggets
    Minnesota Timberwolves
    Oklahoma City ???

    Southwest Division
    Houston Rockets
    Dallas Mavericks
    San Antonio Spurs
    New Orleans Jazz
    Memphis Grizzlies

    Trick question! Grizzlies will sell team to Seattle (Microsoft) investors and it'll be a divisional swap.

    Warriors

    Southwest
    Sonics
    Spurs
    Mavericks
    Rockets

    Timberwolves

    Central
    Bulls
    Cavaliers
    Pacers
    Pistons

    Southeast
