text: will st. louis ever get a pro basketball team again? if so, who would most likely be the team? it's possible, i'll bet it will happen within the next 5 to 10 years...i think david stern would like to see 36 teams (six in each division), so i would look for 6 more expansion teams in the next 10 years.  st. louis is an obvious choice for one, oklahoma city is also, las vegas maybe, santa fe, kansas city, and maybe cincinnati or louisville could all have a shot at a pro team by then...you don't necessarily need to have a team change cities to st. louis...maybe they'll merge with the aba again and your saint louis stunners can be an nba team!!
