I would say both New Orleans and Memphis should be in the East, since the US regions, as I learned them in school, would say both of those are in the Southeast while, for historical reasons, Minnesota is in the Midwest. Obviously, that would make the conferences unbalanced, so we could move Milwaukee or Chicago into the West.
As a Louisiana sports fan it would be pretty dope to play against the hawks, hornets, and magic regularly to have those NFL rivalries run parallel with NBA. But we have lots of teams in our area in the west, and Minnesota should be in the same division as the other midwest teams bulls, bucks, and pistons
