Go look at how the NBA is currently aligned and figure out how much realignment you've done here.

Until the NBA expands to 32 with Las Vegas and Seattle, nothing makes sense unless they go conference-less. A 5x6 model with a 16-team playoff (each division getting an autobid):
Atlantic: Boston, Brooklyn, New York, Philadelphia, Toronto, Washington
Central: Chicago, Cleveland, Detroit, Indiana, Milwaukee, Minnesota
Pacific: Golden State, Los Angeles, Los Angeles, Phoenix, Portland, Sacramento
Southeast: Atlanta, Charlotte, Memphis, Miami, New Orleans, Orlando
Southwest: Dallas, Denver, Houston, Oklahoma City, San Antonio, Utah
