Am I not an NBA fan now?
Okay, I was looking at the Rockets schedule this year ( here), and noticed a team called the "Knickerbockers". At first, I burst out laughing and was like "WTF, who is this!?", then I realized it was the Knicks and was their actual name. I thought the website was making fun of them at first.

Once I was at a trivia contest, and the question was: "Teams from which two cities played in the very first NBA championship?" I guessed Syracuse and Rochester. Turns out it was Chicago and New York. (I think.) Go figure.

Would it floor you if I said that Seattle Sonics is actually the Seattle Supersonics?

And? Is this not a different forum?
And I knew SuperSonics, etc. Knickerbockers just caught me off guard.

But I bet you didn't know the Miami Heat's name is in fact the Miami Heatlamps.

Stuart Scott just called Amare Stoudemire "The Matrix"... not that this is really new information, but apparently he isn't an NBA fan either.
