内容：NBA commissioner Adam Silver has a media deal to work out, and that’s the
top priority going into next spring’s negotiation period. After that, Silver
said in an interview with NBA TV that his thoughts will then “turn to
expansion,” getting all NBA-needy cities amped for the possibilities.
Adam Silver说，明年春天把转播权的事情搞定后，下一件要处理的事，就是想把现行
的30支球队，扩充至32支。
The 30-team NBA has become a global force, and going to 32 teams – the same
number of franchises in the NFL – is inevitable.
Bookies.com oddsmaker has revealed his hypothetical NBA odds as to which
cities could get one of two expansion teams, whenever that day comes.

Two cities stand out as clear favorites if the NBA pushes from 30 to 32.
Seattle had a team for 41 years before new ownership took the squad to
Oklahoma City after failing to get a new arena. The SuperSonics’ fanbase hasn
’t wavered much since the team left in 2008. Seattle is the largest metro
area in the U.S. without a team. It’s tough to imagine the Emerald City not
going all-in when the time comes to submit a proposal.
It wasn’t long ago that professional sports leagues were afraid to venture
into Las Vegas. The NBA led the way in terms of embracing NBA betting into
the mainstream. But it will be the last of the "Big Four" sports to get a pro
team, which is somewhat surprising given the ever-growing popularity of the
Las Vegas Summer League (it moved to Vegas in 2004).
The NHL and NFL have already done so with great success, and it’s likely MLB
snatches the Oakland A's away in the very near future. Vegas seems almost
inevitable, especially with LeBron James outwardly saying he wants to own a
franchise in the city someday.
上面就在讲，目前赢面最大的就两个地点，Seattle和Las Vegas，Seattle很合情合理
，曾有支41年的超音速。
Las Vegas已经有NHL和NFL的职业运动成功进驻，MLB的奥克兰运动家，也准备要搬过
去了。LBJ更说过，想要自己有支球队在Las Vegas。

短评或心得：
上次2004扩编，每支队允许保护自家8个球员，其余的球员，允许会被扩编球队挑走;
当时得利最多的是Gerald Wallace，在国王没什么上场时间，到山猫就成了明星球员。
不知这次的游戏规则是什么?
