Well, that's were they got the Lakers from. "Land of 10,000 Lakes", get it?. True story, the Lakers, back in the days of George Mikan, were the Minnesota Lakers. And the Brooklyn Dodgers because the residents of that fair borough were known for dodging trolley cars.

I guess Lakers as in LA-kers does make some sense, it makes a heckuva lot more sense than Utah Jazz, yeah when I think of Satchmo and all those jazz greats, Utah is the first thing that comes to mind. /s
