    Don't really have anything to offer about the game other than having seen that tomorrow night's game is part of Noche Latina and that the teams will wear jerseys sporting the names in the le of this thread. Los Spurs was bad, but Los Mavs? Really?

    Los = The?

    We are not "The Spurs" though. We did this last year, and I'm down with the reason for the special event but that makes little sense to me.

    Isn't it a little insulting that the NBA thinks it can pander to the Hispanic audience by slapping a "Los" on the front of a bunch of jerseys?

    Why not just rename this game " s vs. s"

    "We choose to call it Noche Latina while faithfully butchering the spanish language into some bas ized form of spanglish that might be recognizable by most gringos."

    or something like that.

    Noche Latina, first launched during the 2006-07 season, will feature celebratory uniforms, which display the team name as spoken by the Latino population. Rather than translating the team names literally, market research concluded that Spanish-speakers in the U.S. refer to them differently. The Miami Heat, for example, is called “El Heat”; the San Antonio Spurs are “Los Spurs” and the Lakers as “Los Lakers.” Noche Latina uniforms were selected based on the teams that were most popular within the Hispanic population.

    Hopefully the name change disrupts the karma and Los Mavericos don't shot 60 percentavos against Los Spurs in the El AAC as usual.

    It is a little insulting. I am all for recognizing the Hispanic or Latin culture. The NBA should do a better job though. Putting "Los" on a jersey is not really recognizing anything. If anything, its not even correct as mentioned before.

    They should make the teams play in sombreros like James Blanco wore at the championship parade.
