Like this a lot in principal but you should add type-ins to standardize it with other NBA quizzes (Cavs, Sixers, Mavs, etc.).

Not too hard for an NBA fan, but I really think it should just accept Zephyrs and Packers. While I do understand that they are from the same place, those teams are ancient and having to guess the city would make it even harder.
