A battle of two former NBA cities
Firstly, let’s not ignore the fact that Baltimore did once have a NBA team. That was the Baltimore Bullets.
They were formed in 1944. The Bullets spent a few years in the ABL then flipped to the BAA, where they won a Championship, before spending their last few years existence in the NBA. They team folded in 1954 – just a decade after their formation.
In a world where elite basketball does return to Baltimore it will not be an easy route with plenty of roadblocks in the way.
