Utah Jazz. Yeah, those Mormons blow a blinding horn.
Tampa Bay Rays. I preferred the original name, it had some bite to it. Now they literally play off the double meaning of sunlight. Rawr!
Cleveland Browns. I understand the historical significance, but when your name is a euphemism for going to the bathroom, it's time for a change.

Sorry, but the Indian Premier League (Cricket) has got the yanks covered easily.
Dehli Daredevils
Kings XI Punjab
Kolkata Knight Riders
Mumbai Indians
Royal Challengers Bangalore
Sunrisers Hyderabad
Rising Pune Supergiant
Gujarat Lions
Only 2 aren't completely naff.
Then there's the defunct teams
Kochi Tuskers Kerala
Deccan Chargers
Pune Warriors India
Chennai Super Kings
Rajasthan Royals.
At one stage there were half of the sides featuring Kings or Royals.

I think the Wizards is a pretty dumb name. I get moving away from "Bullets" but Wizards?
Teams named after clothing is also kinda lame. Red Sox, White Sox, Blue Jackets, Knicks.
I (generally) hate when a team moves but keeps the same nickname, like the Jazz as previously mentioned. I think it only has really worked for the Raiders. It sounds cool wherever they go.

Nets is a terrible name. It would be like having a baseball team called the Gloves.
I think Stags would be a better nickname than Bucks. When I hear the latter, I just think dollar signs. The Timberwolves should just shorten their name to Wolves
