The Pistons moved from Indiana...the name has nothing to do with Detroit.

I like the 4 team name trade idea. Except that there is a Minor league hockey team that is called the Grizzlies already.

The term ******* refers to the color of the paint they used to use to paint their faces before going into battle, and had nothing to do with the natural color of their skin. Most Native American groups have no problem with it at all.
smh Wow. Do you honestly believe that?

In a way, i like that they keep the original names.. it let's you sort of trace the franchise to an original starting spot.. but at the same time, it'scool to keep the names with the towns, too.
