This has nothing to do with college hoops, but this is where I usually put these things.
The city of Cleveland is looking to the Cavaliers to end a long championship drought. Since that title game for the 1964 NFL season, a bunch of metro areas have won double digit championships.
Name all of the metro areas to win 10 or more big 4 (MLB, NHL, NBA, NFL) championships since Cleveland has celebrated a winner

East Rutherford, NJ (Devils in the NHL, and Giants in the Superbowls) OK, New York City as well with the Yankees, Knicks, Rangers, Islanders and the Jets when they were a NY team (but please don't count the championships from East Rutherford, NEW JERSEY). PS: Nice Friday trivia, Tom.

Don't think the Giants and Devils get East Rutherford to 10. Giants have 4 and I'm pretty sure the Devils don't have 6.

PITTSBURGH
11 if the Pens take care of business and win their 4th Cup.
6 Super Bowls
And the We are Family "79 Buccos.
The Iron City gets it done even without an NBA horse in the race.

PS: Nice Friday trivia, Tom. That whole East Rutherford thing gets fuzzy. Especially when the Giants and Jets have New York in the name but the Devils and once upon a time the Nets had New Jersey. Could easily go either way

This seems to have run its course, so I'll give the last answer. With no help from the Expos, the Canadiens put Montreal into double digits with 12 cups since the Browns won NFL championship

Great trivia question. Montrealers might add the 6 Grey Cups the Alouettes have won since 1964--not the NFL but pro football for them
