OT: 10 Questions for David Stern

[Chaplin]

Is it? I don't know much about the geography/culture of SoCal. I sort of assumed so, so thats why I didn't think the NBA would put a team there. I don't know how landlocked LA is, but maybe if the NFL decided to put a team in SoCal it would put it in a more Inland Empire type place.

I think the closest place an NBA team could be placed is Palm Springs, but that is REALLY pushing it. There's no identification with Riverside or San Berardino--at least a city like Tucson has a highly touted college team--those cities in the Inland Empire don't even have that.
