Jesus loves you and may God bless you
Do next how did NFL teams get their names ?
3:34 tuff layup🥶
Fr😂
Nah hol up that bitch was hella tuff 😂😂
That plumbers touch

July 8th 2010 the decision
"this summer i am gonna take my talents to the the sun tans!!!!"
Huh
@@UncleAaron685casual
Yeah absolute low budget movie material 😂😂😂
It would be a good name for a team in Flint Michigan
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Just imagine or in an alternate reality:
Miami Sun Tans vs Phoenix Sun Lovers 😂😅😆
3:40 Ahh yes the good old western Nebraska city of Kansas City and the eastern Colorado city of Nebraska. Love those cities.
imagine the Miami heat being called the Miami SUN TANS😂💀
Sun Tans but close enough
@@ross.2003it was a joke mate
Sun Tan Culture 😂
@@mrcat3598fucking shit joke.
Not funny😐
Miami Beaches? Imagine Jimmy Butler saying, “I’d like to retire as a beach…”
“I’d like to retire as a sun tan”
Or “I love playing with all these Beaches”. 😂
Dwade was a great beach
What I've learned from this video is that hockey is basketballs father
Not basketball in general but NBA itself.
Rugby is basketball’s dad, basketball was created by a rugby coach to give his players something to do in the winter
Yeah but we all know the better sport🤷♂️
@DarrelWatkins77 thankfully people can like both. First round of NHL's playoffs ALWAYS > NBA first round. The rest is a toss-up
@@DarrelWatkins77yeah, Hockey
One of the best and underrated nba/sports channel ever ngl
jimmy too
San Diego clippers winning the 🏆
The sun tans would be a weird name, the knickerbockers, oof you gotta say that right😂
3:52 Omaha isn't in Colorado
Was wondering if someone else noticed.
Your timing is a bit off for your point. At 3:41 we see how this map is *entirely* off. In fact, the point for Omaha, NEBRASKA should be just ever so barely West of the MO River that borders the state with Iowa to its east. And the point of Kansas City should be almost *right* on the border between Kansas and Missouri
general area my bad @@samanthabradley860
@@samanthabradley860all you had to say is that it's in eastern nebraska
He also showed Philadelphia as being in Massachusetts lmao
2:35 Just letting you know Philadelphia isn't in Massachusetts...
Lol
I caught that one too like I'm pretty sure Philly is not in Mass.
Yessssss. Thank you brother man.
This is what happens when you let AI do the editing without double checking for mistakes 🤷🏽♂️
3:41 Thai isn’t where KC or Omaha are located at all.
😂
2:35 And that’s definitely not where Philadelphia is located at all either
That lay up at the 3:30-3:35 time marker was insane ngl
black hawks would be crazy in today's league
I mean...... Chicago Blackhawks exist so..mmmmm
Then they could name a team the white Caucs 😂🤷🏻♂️
Imagine if we had teams named the Boston Unicorns, Milwaukee Skunks, and the Cleveland Presidents playing in the same league 😂
And Miami Sun Tans lmao
I would wear a Skunks t-shirt 😂
Rainbow-colored Unicorns would be pretty … well, colorful …
@@kierenmoore3236Imagine the different alternates for the jerseys, there probably would’ve been 5 of them.
You guys should do this with every sport. It was really interesting!
The Blazers logo over washington states make me die a little inside. RIP Sonics, screw David Stern
I can’t believe they were thinking of the name skunks for Milwaukees team😂
It would make sense for every season that they stunk😂😂😂
@hurricanewayne7463 what team you a fan of btw lol
@@Love2Musgrave tbh, I'm a fan of any team that plays fundamental basketball. But if I had to throw some teams out there. Before now the bulls, knicks, lakers, trailblazers, spurs, and pistons. Now the bucks, nuggets, & I'm leaning towards throwing the mavs in there. I'd watch more games if they allowed these guys to play defense
New Orleans changed a whole organization just to get AD 😂😂😂
Hahahahahaha
The league really missed out on the Cleveland Foresters, Miami Suntans, Milwaukee Skunks, Minnesota Blizzard, Orlando Aquamen AND Vancouver Mounties 😔
Minnesota Blizzard and Orlando Aquamen actually would’ve sounded pretty neat. Imagine the Aquaman mascot and how that would’ve gone
I never even questioned what "knicks" means I just always accepted it 😂😂😂
That map infographic... 😂😂😂😂😂
Bro doesn't know where Kansas City and Omaha is 😐
Yeah I’m questioning everything here now
2:35 that’s not where Philadelphia is 😂
Or where Kansas City and Omaha are (3:40)
WOW, now that 0:32 - 0:52 is fascinating! I never knew that was where the genesis of the NBA thought process came from!
Error 3:00 mark
The lakers did not start in Minnesota but in Detroit as The Gems. Gems were brought by Mr Berger. To not to have start a new roster from zero
Good call. Also kinda wanna shout out that Minneapolis is the City of Lakes fwiw
Not talking about how the New Jersey Nets almost became the Swamp Dragons is a travesty
Hey there long time sports fan recent nba fan thanks for helping me get into it faster
I love this man
OMG NONSTOP POSTED TWO DAYS IN ARROWWW I LUV HIMMMM
12:24: The team that introduced me to sports and has been my favorite sports team ever since.
This is pretty cool.
This video is amazing
I love these videos
Great idea for a video
Quite a few teams were close to being named the Dragons. Maybe the new expansion team will finally adopt that name.
Las Vegas Dragons
bro mixed up KC and omaha location
Great video
Nonstop are the kings on transitions mam
OKC Renegades would be cool
3:33 prehistoric kyrie showing off the layup package
10:39 Adrian dantley looked like Sean Livingston 😂
Weird to think that if Minnesota had stuck with the name "Blizzard", the Raptors could have revived the Huskies name from the '40s. Instead of Jurassic Park, we'd have the Dog Park.
Nonstooooop!❤
The Skunks Stinks😂
W vid 🔥
2:35 I hadn’t realized that Philadelphia was in western Massachusetts. Thanks.
You might have mentioned that Toronto were an original team by the name of the Huskies, and that they played the Knicks in Toronto in what is considered the first game in NBA history.
Shout out to Fort Wayne Indiana!!!
Well made video
The video left this out but “Trailblazers” is in reference to the pioneers that traveled (blazed) the Oregon Trail.
I actually like the Miami beaches as a name and the Orlando juice. The juices sounds cool.
The San Diego blizzards sound 🔥
This man put Kansas City on the wrong side of the state lol
Do a video on the 2006 chargers plz!!!
Request that on Blitz, that’s their new football channel
I love the colorized photos in the video
So what I learned from this video is never trust fans with anything important.
S.O.S... Save Our Sonics...
great vid my quetion has been answered
Kept me interested in the 70s nba
Hawks fan here with something to add: Despite originally named after the local Indian hero, when moving to Atlanta, we do not need to change our names as Atlanta is one of the aviation centers and a hawk happens to symbolize a plane, both being high up in the sky.
New York Knicker what now?!
Jokic after hearing what a pacer and how it was used: trade me to Indiana right now!!!!
Utah should return the name Jazz back to New Orleans, tbh…
Agreed. But then what would Utah call themselves? The Mormons? The Dry State? The Place Where Other Teams Hate to Play Because It's Got No Strip Clubs?
As a Jazz fan who grew up in Utah, hell no. We keep that name as a source of pride. We were able to make a team named The Jazz work when New Orleans couldn't
2:35 I don’t think that’s Philadelphia
Skunks was HARD
Here before this goes viral :)
Hey Nonstop, doesn't that NBL trophy at 4:18 look suspiciously like the modern MVP trophy? 😮😅
I would totally be a fan of the Phoenix Cactus Giants! 🌵
Some of the team names would have been crayyyy..😂😂.
S/o to the ownership for stepping up when needed lol
The Bobcats should have called themselves the Bad Kitties
The Dallas Wranglers goes kinda hard though ngl.
Every day I see hawks in the wind, but never in the win.
That wizards logo was creative. Most of 2000's logo were cool.
I notice that when talking about the Charlotte Hornets you didn’t really give the reason for why the name is what it is. The name isn’t as much as a novelty as some of the teams. It has large historical reasons similar to how the Pistons, Knicks or 76ers do.
The name is historically tied to the region and the city via the British Generals Cornwallis and Tarleton during the American Revolution. The Generals both described Charlotte and the surrounding counties in NC as hot spots of rebellion. The tradition upheld in Charlotte is that Cornwallis called the city a “Hornets Nest” of rebellion. The police badge of the city is in the shape of a hornet nest and the county the city is in has a hornets nest on its court seal. Native and non-native charlotteans seem to be unaware to this history that runs deep but I think the Hornets are a real symbol for the people native to the city of Charlotte and gave another reason to dislike the moving of the team. Just thought I would share. Thanks.
As a Celtics fan, I would immediately not be a Celtics fan if we were called the Unicorns 😭
Important vídeo
Adrian Dantley didn’t win an mvp (10:36)
I thought the same as well
He did win a scoring title
This video has some false info like the lakers was bought from a team in Detroit called Detroit Gems then move to Minnesota and changed the name to the lakers
It was a BIG change from Black hawks to bulls
4:28 who named it that
2:35 ah yes Philadelphia, the great metropolis of Massachusetts.
@14:58 neglects to mention that the hornets nest is a symbol in the Charlotte area, supposedly dating back to the 1780s when the locals fought with the British army.
Yeah he really fucked up on that one. That’s arguably the most interesting story of any of these names
Lets go Knickerbockers!!
If Las Vegas ever gets an NBA team, I'd personally name them the Las Vegas Gamblers or Highrollers
Highrollers would actually be a sweet name
@@ChewyChicken589 yeah it would be. My brother suggested it
The Las Vegas Broke
@@Cantblendthis 😂😂😂
Las Vegas Sin or Las Vegas 🎲
The Royals map was sad to look at. Kansas City is in Missouri not Kansas and Omaha is in Nebraska, not Colorado.
There's a Kansas City on both sides of the border, but the Royals and Chiefs do play on the Missouri side for now which he got wrong by saying "Kansas"already had a Royals team
The draft kings sponsor is crazy bc I filled a bracket to have Alabama win the national championship and so far so good
Take a poll. Choose our own name. That's what they call the perception of choice.
Rochester stand up we got the kings only ring still 😂
I know I only a few seconds in the video but I would like to point out that Toronto has been a part of the nba longer then most teams. That really blows my mind.
Aztecs is such a cool name
San Antonio Aztecs has a nice ring to it
3:41 that is not where Kansas City or Omaha is🙃
I still can’t get over the fact that the Will Ferrell movie “Semi-Pro” is based off actual events in sports history.
Do a vid on cooper flagg
As a bears fan seeing the chicago packers hurts a lot
the Wizards need to change their moniker back to Bullets(or Monuments)😓
I'm laughing at these names lol.
Oklahoma “renegades “😂😂would’ve been getting dawg walked
A world where the Phoenix Cactus Giants and Charles Barkley lost to the Bulls in the finals is a world I want to live in.
Bring the Sonics backkkk in Seattle!!
