Haha not a good catch at all. I’ve never heard of the Buffalo Braves. I was saying NY state has 8 teams, and I assumed it was the Sabres you had forgotten. Or it’s possible one of the 8 doesn’t play in NY anymore. I’ve got: Mets, Yankees, Bills, Knicks, Nets, Rangers, Islanders, Sabres. 

Ha!  I did totally forget about the Buffalo Sabres!  You're right - there are 8 MLB/NFL/NBA/NHL teams that currently play in the state of New York.   So, NY state has lost 6 teams over the years (w/ 2 of those still playing in the NYC metro), but still have 8 teams playing within the state boundaries.  

....and I'm only counting those 4 sports leagues, of course - not MLS, WNBA, etc.

I assume you mean the Buffalo Braves, not the Sabres, but good catch!  I had to look them up.....they're the LA Clippers now.

The Braves of the NBA moved to San Diego first and then Los Angeles.

You forgot the Syracuse Nationals who moved to Philadelphia and became the 76ers, this was after the Warriors left Philly and moved to San Francisco.

Rochester Royals moved to Cincy-KC-Omaha- Sacramento Kings.

Interesting that both Syracuse and Rochester, NY had NBA teams way back in the day.
