| You have Portland listed twice - both as the Blazers and the Trail Blazers. I would eliminate the "Blazers" one, as it isn't the team's name. |

| I screwed up and named the second one I thought of, but still got credit for it? ;-) |

| Not sure why the 3rd column is needed - the answers can be displayed that way in the second column. As it is, the second column has a random team name which will often not be the one we guessed. |

| I think the Knicks are still officialy named the "Knickerbockers" (14). |

| Pelicans as a bonus answer? |

| a nice bonus would be the Knickerbockers (the full name of the Knicks) |

| accepting Knicks but not Wolves or Sixers is inconsistent. |

| Hey everyone, Sporcle has consistently accepted Knicks as a six letter answer on all name length quizzes, and their team name displays on NBA Teams quiz as the 'New York Knicks'. We think that most players would come to this quiz with the expectation that 'Knicks' would be an acceptable answer for a six letter NBA team. |

| This could probably be a 30 second quiz. |

| Unfortunately SporcleEXP their proper title is the knickerbockers it is shortened to knicks everywhere else because its easier to say but they are indeed the knickerbockers |

| They are called the Knicks by their own organisation. They are called the Knicks by the NBA. This IS their official name. Yes, we all know what it's short for, but it is factually incorrect to say it is equivalent to 'Blazers' 'Wolves' or 'Sixers' - as the NBA uses the full names of these teams. Just check on absolutely anything official from the NBA and you will see this to be correct. |

| @Golden - Thank you. I cannot remember the last time I heard them referred to as the Knickerbockers, except on random Sporcle quizzes and Wikipedia. Literally everyone refers to them as the Knicks. |
