Reading this article, you are led to believe that Vegas just needs to build a new arena and get the NBA to bring their game into the city (shouldn't be that hard, especially since the league DID hold the All-Star Game there in '07).
That'd sting for the Pistons. Wonder if the NBA would actually move forward with some legitimate realignment? Vegas Pistons in the Western Conference. Perhaps move New Orleans into the Eastern Conference so it can be with its "rival" city Atlanta...
Auburn Hills -- An investment group in Las Vegas wants to bring an NBA team to its city. The group, International Development Management LLC, said it's close to purchasing an NBA team to play in its proposed arena.
Could that team be the Pistons? Nobody's commenting, and the Pistons are one of several teams on the market.
This deal, too, has a lot of loopholes to clear. The investment group must first strike a deal with the county to fund construction of its proposed arena -- and isn't having much luck.
