All 30 NBA Team Name Origins Explained

Warning there are many voice cracks

Jazz

Golden State should change their name to Golden Snake because they attract a few of em

Definitely Utah needs to change their name n the heat just need to change their team colors to a more fire color like orange not red

New Orleans should be named jazz

The Jazz and the Grizzlies should switch names, because Utah has grizzlies, but absolutely no connection to jazz at all and Memphis has always been an important city for jazz, but doesn’t have any grizzlies.

Dude imagine a team called the “AZTECS” sounds badass imo

How come South Carolina doesn’t have a basketball team?

The Black Cocks!

Can you imagine the Boston Unicorns

LoL looks like everyone wanted their team to be named "Express"

Voice crack every sentence

This is a really good video

9:50 did u just assume teams' genders?

If Las Vegas ever gets a team they should be called Jokers

Memphis Express... the AAF team?!?

The Jazz fits Utah. It is now culture

These teams should switch city's.
LA Clippers=Las Vegas Clippers
Memphis Grizzlies=Pittsburgh Grizzlies
Sacramento Kings=Kansas City Kings.

Minnesota blizzards has a nice ring to it

There ain't no grizzlies in Memphis or Tennessee for that matter ...

Toronto Huskies

The jazz it doesn’t make scents

Which sounds better: Toronto Raptors VS Toronto Dragons?

You should do this for the aaf and xfl

“Buck deer are common in the area” no whitetails are common in the area a buck is any male deer.

This guy said “ buck deer” for the Milwaukee bucks. Bucks are deer smart one

Renaming the bullets to wizards didnt really help their association with gun violence

Sounds like there's a market for the name dragons somewhere.

When the jazz got sent to Utah they never bothered changing the name because they figured the team would just die out and was not worth the $, when Larry Miller bought the team he kept the name basically as a middle finger.

Lakers should be renamed Los Angeles Lebrons.

They "unfortunately" kept the name when they moved to Salt Lake City?! Blow me!! You obviously don't know why they kept the name. They kept it cause the team was nearly broke when they moved and keeping the name would mean they could save money on reusing a lot of the old stuff, including uniforms. They also did have a contest to rename the team but nothing stuck and so they just decided to stick with the Jazz. So what if it has nothing to do with Salt Lake City?

Allen travel during Nets part?

Bruh, imagine Orlando Aquamen

I had to listen to this a few times to be certain, but he definitely called the basketball team the Mets. 0:57

Jazz is a cool name. Pelicans isn't.

Could you imagine what all these teams would be called if they were all being renamed today?

Miami bitches? Hahaha!

You messed up hornets story.. the team now in Charlotte isn't the original hornets team.

Minnesota Blizzard would’ve been cool

As a Jazz fan, I say we are keeping the name unless Toronto lets us have theirs. That is all.

NBA moves that should happen (In order of most important):
1. Seattle SuperSonics comeback
2. Memphis Grizzlies go back to Vancouver
3. Give Las Vegas a team (Got a hockey team and they went to the Stanley Cup Finals and are about to get the Raiders)
4. Teams get more jerseys, preferably throwbacks

7:43 _Pheonix Dudes_

Minnesota blizzard is coll as hell

Why does this sound like a book report lol

"endquote"

Abe Pollin changed it to the Wizards then the whole gilbert arenas gun thing happened
