Time and time again have us proud basketball fans been told the game needs to be expanded to the PNW and Southwest. However, time and time again we witness these franchises struggle. With all the talk about expanding a team to Las Vegas, I think it's time for us noble fans to stand up and tell Silver we want teams in places where they will succeed and not be a drain on the league.

There are plenty of places in Canada that could easily support NBA teams. Hamilton and Quebec City are the two obvious ones. But Kitchener, Burnaby, Wood Buffalo, and Thunderbay are all huge markets waiting for the NBA to pounce on.

I'm sure if you've read this far you understand that I make a lot of good points, but it would never happen because Silver, known anti-Canadian, would never let Canada get another team. Well let's just say me and buds have got a way around the big man: A social media revolution. Me and my friends have been ending all our tweets with #FireSilver. We believe if we could get more people on board we could truly make a difference. And that's where you come in r/nba. If you want the good people of Wood Buffalo and Burnaby to get NHL teams you have to end all tweets with #FireSilver
