Funny alternate team names?

PKABOOICU · Post #1 » by **PKABOOICU** » Sat Feb 6, 2016 11:28 pm

Can you think of NBA teams that were prescribed a different name due to their persona?

Some that come to mind-

Jail Blazers- due to their era of trouble
Thuggets- lead by iverson, jr smith, melo
Fakers- whenever the lakers sucked or laker haters
Flippers- due to clippers flopping
Baby Bulls- led by tyson chandler and eddy curry
Bad Boyz- late 80's pistons era
Queens- the kings dubbed by shaq and many others due to never making the finals

There was a guy on the old ESPN boards who was a pretty cool regular, but he had one of the least-funny alternate names I've ever heard: The San Antonio Horse Abusers. And he used to use it all the damn time; I think he truly thought it was funny.

I don't use emoticons very often, but :roll:
