After suffering a sub-par 2013-14 season, New York Knicks fans who watched all of the losses can certainly call themselves loyal, but they can’t call themselves creative.

The team held a fan vote to name their Developmental League team, and they went with, of all things, the Knicks.

The logo also appears to be a Knickerbocker, which was a member of Manhattan’s aristocracy in the 19th century, playing basketball.

As For the Win pointed out, at least this means D-Leaguers can tell people they play for the Knicks and won’t be lying.
