Possible nicknames for new NBA team in Oklahoma City

NBA files for rights to 6 nicknames - NBA - Yahoo! Sports

One of the final team nicknames is Energy. Doesn't sound like that may be what they end up with but if it does will the Iowa D-League team have to change its name since they aren't affiliated with that franchise?

 

[CrossCyed]

Isn't it the Thunder?

The name of the Quad Cities team back before Isiah ruined the CBA was the Thunder.

 

[bellzisu]

Since we are all addicts, can we get a Cybookie

 

[Wesley]

Call them the Hijackers.

Its a pretty cool name. Tampa Bay ought to have a team called Thunder to go along with their hockey team Lightning

 

[Flag Guy]

Energy? Yeah we're the Energy!!!!

Kinda ********... not to mention it makes it sound like our friend T Boone is up to his usual stuff...

 

[clonerules]

i was kinda hoping for something like the OKC Feds..or something similar. kind of a tribute to the federal building...

 

[jj-cyclones]

Wind? That would pry be the worst name ever!

I like the Energy in Iowa so I hope they stay clear of it...

 

[SplitIdentity]

How about the Cyclones?

They are in tornado country...

im feelin bison... but thunder is kinda cool too!!

I'm with you. Bison would be awesome.

Why wasn't Tornados one of the options, or Dust Bowls, or the Oklahoma O.K.'s? Looks like they picked the wrong guy to come up with some cool names.
