Good question. There has been talk before by NBA owners of bringing a team to Pittsburgh, but the truth of the matter is our metro doesn't have the population to support a 4th professional team. We are currently the 4th most "overburdened sports market" in the country with 3 pro teams. Source: http://www.bizjournals.com/edit_special/36.html
