I like generic names that aren't lame (Warriors, Bulls, Thunder) or regional names (Trailblazers, Rockets, 76ers, etc.)
Pelicans is a decent name.

The Jazz when it was in N.O.

A Pelican is a hypercarnivore. It eats only meat. Also, it'll eat other birds. But you're right I'm not serious

Because the name sucks.

It is better than Heat, Wizards and other stupid names like that. I just think you could have come up with some swamp animal that could frick some shite up.

biased, but I like the Mavericks.

Lakers were in Minneapolis, where the name was relevant.
The same way there is no Jazz in SLC and no Grizzly Bears in the Mississippi River cotton fields.

It's a good name, it just suffers from the worst branding in major pro sports history.

Oh, so the ole which mascot would win in a fight, huh? Do you sometimes choose a team based upon who has the prettiest uniforms?

Knickerbockers - I wish they'd bring this back, at least occasionally
Pistons
Mavericks
Spurs
Heat and Thunder both suck
L.A. Lakers???

Pacers
Trail blazers
Phillies
Red Sox
Green Wave
Orioles
Bills
Browns
Blue Jackets
Blues
Dodgers
76ers
Spurs
Packers
Saints
Islanders
Ducks
Stars
Athletics
Mariners
Owls
And so on

The Brown Pelican (which is the state bird) would make a Hawk cry.

I like the Spurs name. It applies to the region.

FACT: Only tards in Louisiana would use "awesome" and "pelican" in the same sentence.
Have fun being mocked around the nation then wonder why nobody takes your state seriously.
