Should just completely change Sonics to Thunder since the name Sonics isn't currently in use until the league expands and they can form a new team in Seattle.

OK, guys, the season started. I hereby respectfully request you change the name of the Sonics to Thunder on the list ;)

Another request to change the Sonics. I still can't remember the Thunder and it would give the quiz some difficulty :D

I was on a wing and a prayer with this one. All my knowledge comes from NBA Live 95! I can't believe I remembered so many - 76ers! Timberwolves! Nuggets! PS What happened to the Supersonics? That was a great name!

how about a defunct franchises quiz... (teams would qualify if they are in a different city with a different name too even if the franchise still exists)do it across all sports too seattle supersonics, rochester royals, syracuse nationals, chicago stags, seattle pilots, boston braves, winnipeg jets, hartford whalers, etc.

For the sake of the alphabetic order, Oklahoma City Thunder should come before Portland Trailblazers in the Northwest Division list.

bballmania1324 - that's what I'm saying. Right now it has Portland before Oklahoma City. They should change it.

Don't know enough about the NBA (I'm Australian) to get many but I'd heard of them all. Somehow managed to forget the Knicks and remember the Timberwolves.
