    It doesn't fit anymore, same as the Utah Jazz. The LA Mambas or the LA Hollywoods are much better

    Memphis Elvises would be much cooler. Or the Memphis Blues since so many blues musicians were raised in Memphis.

    How about something much more significant to Los Angeles? I would say something like the Los Angeles Illegals.

    Yes, great name, but Utah Mormons will attract much more fans.

    I agree on New Orleans Jazz, that should be a priority, especially now that the Hornets are back.

    The Thunder name sucks too. Losing the Sonics for that crap was embarrassing.
    They should have changed it when they moved to Utah. They aren't changing it now.

    I think Bucks have a fine name. Their city name just sounds bad. I mean MILWAUKEE? c'mon naw. Sounds like a damn native american signal.

    Seattle or Las Vegas would be cooler

    Utah Jazz need to change theirs, maybe Utah Hymns?

    Pelicans name is retarded but I don't hate it as it fits the state, i feel bad for their fans though.

    Not hating but the lakers name is silly and doesn't fit, can't change it now though because it's an institution.

    Bobcats will be fine once they become the hornets.

    Grizzlies should change their name.

    Other than those teams I'm happy with the other names.
