This question is quite interesting. Many fans like basketball. In the last two years, I will find that the name of Dallas Mavericks has been changed to Dallas Lone Ranger.

The reason is that when Cuban, the owner of Dallas Mavericks, visited China in the summer of 17, after learning the translation of the team name, he thought that the name was contrary to the original intention of the team name, not domineering enough, and did not match the team logo. Given that there is a team called Bulls in the league, the attack of Mavericks is too weak. More importantly, Dallas is a famous western city. Cowboys' gathering place, their hits should be wilder!

Cuban is a boss who loves the ball. He will accompany the team to play away games and sit in the front row on the sidelines to cheer for the team. Imagine which team boss can do this now! With this initial intention to the team, Cuban even paid more attention to the team's reputation in China and even overseas markets. Therefore, he once said: If the team wins the championship of 1 1 year, the name should be full of energy and show enough respect, so the Chinese name must have these meanings!

Therefore, team owner Cuban boldly decided to collect the new name of the team from China fans to make it sound more impactful, in line with their team's influence and closer to Dallas' urban culture. A bear still remembers the activities launched by Tencent that summer, which made everyone come up with a new name for Dallas. Netizens are very enthusiastic, such as Dallas Bull, Dallas Bull, Dallas Pegasus, Dallas BMW and Dallas BMW. Netizens have created many interesting and ironic names with their whimsy.

Of course, according to the English name of the Mavericks, translating it into Chinese is unconventional and unconventional. Combined with the team logo, it is the horse's head to show people, not the cow, so the past logo is also very misleading.

In fact, the combination of horses and cowboys embodies the unique culture of the western United States, so the team emblem has the influence of horses, but it is far from the meaning of our Chinese name "Dallas Mavericks".

Finally, on June 4th, 2008+2065438, the team officially changed its name to "Dallas Lone Ranger". This new name is just in line with the original intention of unconventional Chinese, and China culture also advocates "Jianghu chivalry". The word "chivalry" also embodies a kind of free and easy and domineering, which is very impactful, similar to Kuban and the team.

From September, 2065438 to September, 2007, Cuban, the owner of Mavericks, went to China to participate in activities, during which he learned that China translated Mavericks into Dallas Mavericks. When he heard that his team was translated into Mavericks, Cuban was unhappy: "Frankly speaking, I am not happy."

There are two definitions of the English word Maverick. First, it refers to small animals that are not branded, which is the origin of calf translation. Second, it is the extended meaning of this word, which refers to a maverick.

Cuban said: The word "calf" has nothing to do with the meaning of the English team name "calf".

"In my opinion,' maverick' represents strength, innovation, strength and victory. We hope to convey the meaning of' victory, strength and strength' through the new China team name. "

So in order to make the Chinese name of our team better express the meaning of Mavericks. Cuban released an official video on September 1 1, 2065438, Beijing time, officially announcing that the team will join hands with Chinese media to collect a brand-new China team name for the whole world.

In the end, the name Lone Ranger won the favor of fans, and Mavericks also changed to Lone Ranger. The renamed lone ranger is also very lucky. 20 18, they won the dance championship in the draft. At present, Dancsics has performed very well, and is already a favorable competitor of the second-year mvp.

Dallas Mavericks, Mavericks England [m? v？ r？ Ks] beauty [,m? v？ r？ Ks] brand-free livestock (plural noun of maverick); A maverick, unconventional person, does not mean calf. And we look at the team emblem of Dallas Mavericks, which is obviously a horse, not a cow!

This is a mistake in China's translation of the NBA team name, but now the name "Lone Ranger" is chosen by the fans. Excerpt from NBA News: In order to get a satisfactory new Chinese name, Mavericks collected a brand-new China team name from the world on September 20, 200711. The activity lasted for half a month and received tens of thousands of new articles about calves from various platforms. After more than two months, the Mavericks have chosen three candidate names, Dallas Lone Ranger, Dallas Wild Pony and Dallas Crazy Horse Song and Dance Show.

In the end, the lone ranger won. On the Chinese official website page of NBA, the name of "Dallas Mavericks" has been changed to "Dallas Mavericks". From the translation point of view, Dallas Fierce Pony and Dallas Crazy Horse Song and Dance Show are more in line with the original intention of the calf to mark the pony, but the lone ranger is more artistic and graceful! It's a name anyway. It's not the first time that an NBA team has changed its name. The wasp was renamed the pelican, and the bobcat was renamed the wasp. At that time, the bullet was changed to a wizard, and the supersonic speed was changed to a thunder. Isn't this all changed?

Just get used to it. The lone ranger is more magical, much like the old driver's style! As long as everyone likes it.

Why did the calf change its name to a lone ranger?

In 20 17, Mavericks and Tencent Sports jointly launched a brand-new China team name collection activity. After a series of links such as fan suggestions, official screening and fan voting, The Lone Ranger finally won. "Mavericks" will become history as the Chinese team name of the team, and "Lone Ranger" will become the new Chinese logo of Dallas Mavericks.

The name "Mavericks" has been used since the NBA entered China and has been with the team for more than 20 years. Why did you suddenly change your name? This should start with the English name of the team. Dallas calf, Dallas is Dallas, but the calf actually comes from this surname, Samuel Maverick,/kloc-the largest local caller in Texas in the 9th century. 1845, someone owes the calf a lot of money. When maverick went to collect the accounts, the debtor didn't pay in cash, so he used 400 cows as compensation. At that time, in order to distinguish the ownership of cattle, all cows were branded, so that as long as you see the brand on the cow, you can know whose cow it is. All local cattle farmers do this, but maverick is dismissive. Over time, the locals called this brand-free cow Maverick's cow, and finally the name gradually spread throughout the United States and was finally included in the dictionary. Derived a new meaning, it has become synonymous with strength, freedom and development. Its meaning can be interpreted as bullish, but it is by no means a calf. No wonder team owner Cuban and star Nowitzki were very dissatisfied when they learned that China was called "Mavericks".

Boss Cuban said in an interview: "When I first heard that the Chinese name of the team was' Mavericks', frankly speaking, I was not very happy. Nobody wants to be a maverick. Therefore, I am very happy to have the opportunity to change the name of the China team. "

After the team launched the campaign to collect China's new team name, many fans enthusiastically participated and offered many suggestions. After screening, "Lone Ranger", "Crazy Pony" and "Crazy Horse Song and Dance Show" became three candidate team names, entered the voting process, and finally "Lone Ranger" won the vote.

The definition of "Xia" in the dictionary is: a person who has the ability to help people weaker than himself, asks for nothing in return, and does what he says, and sincerely serves the country and the people. It is a spirit and a social pursuit. For example, martial arts and chivalrous men are highly respected by many people.

"Independence" is not a loner, but a maverick, unique, arrogant and unique. It is the reputation of the world without remonstration, and the world is not humiliated, but even if thousands of people go there. As Camus wrote in The Rebel, all maverick personalities mean strength.

"The Lone Ranger" can well interpret the meaning of maverick, representing extraordinary strength and spirit, which is exactly what Cuban wants to feel. "I hope the new name will have strength and vitality. We are Dallas. We won the championship once. We have players like Nowitzki, dennis smith and harrison barnes, "Cuban said. "Being a strong team has always been our goal. Energy, strength and respect are what we hope the new China team name can convey. "

After understanding the history of the Mavericks, friends who are familiar with the team owner Cuban should think that the name lone ranger is also in line with the image of the boss and the team. Cuban's love for basketball is by no means comparable to that of other NBA team owners. Most bosses who invest in NBA are for business and profit from it. To put it bluntly, it's all business. Cuban is a boss who is really obsessed with basketball.

In order to provide a better environment for the players and improve the team's performance, Cuban spared no expense to build the most luxurious gym and lounge for the team. As long as the team has a game, Cuban will almost always be there to watch and cheer for the team. Friends who like basketball will never acquiesce in Cuban. When watching the live broadcast, you can often see the camera aiming at Cuban. Through the camera, you can see Cuban's attention to every attack.

20 10-20 1 1 when the team won the championship, Cuban was even more excited to tears, which is rare among NBA team owners. Therefore, the name "Lone Ranger" is not only more in line with the English name of his team, but also more in line with the embodiment of the team owner and team spirit.

Of course, Cuban chose this time to change the Chinese name of the team, probably to pave the way for opening up the China market. Since Yao Ming entered the NBA, all NBA teams have discovered the potential of China market. China's huge market is very attractive to any team. Cuban loves basketball, but he is also a businessman. It is not mutually beneficial to spread the NBA to China while opening the China market.

In any case, I hope that the renamed solo couple can be as strong and free as the new name and return to the peak when they won the championship!

The English name of Dallas Mavericks is "Dallas Mavericks", in which Mavericks means pony, calf and calf. The translator in China has always been a calf, which is also in line with Dallas' image of boycotting western cowboys.

So, why did the famous Mavericks change their name to the lone ranger?

In fact, the image of the Mavericks has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. The Mavericks have been the top team in the league at the beginning of 2 1 century, and stars such as Nash, Finley and Nowitzki have always been deeply loved by fans.

Nowitzki, in particular, was reversed in the finals and experienced a series of unimaginable failures such as Black Eight and Black Seven, which made China fans and Mavericks have a deeper feeling. In those years, they, the Spurs and the Sun have always been the strongest representatives.

1 1 After winning the championship, Cuban also knew that their translation in China was calf, and he didn't feel domineering. Without changing the original English name, he changed the official Chinese translation name to the lone ranger, which sounded more imposing than the calf, so China's official name became the lone ranger.

Although the name of the team was changed to Mavericks, it was still friendly to domestic fans. After all, the most glorious years of the Mavericks were spent in the name of the Mavericks, and Nowitzki, a great player, was also branded as the Mavericks.

Although the English name has not changed, it is still a calf, which has no influence on foreign friends. However, the change of Chinese still makes people reluctant to part with the history of the Mavericks, so that many fans joked that Nowitzki was traded to the lone ranger. This emotion formed in more than ten years cannot be eliminated at once. I hope that Dancsics can lead the rise of the lone ranger, so that people can gradually forget the maverick and remember the lone ranger.

All in all, Cuban's decision has been implemented for several years, and Dallas has always been a popular team except for changing the name of the Chinese translation team.

That's what the name Dallas Mavericks was called when the NBA entered China, but it changed to a lone ranger at 20 18 and 1, and everyone was a little uncomfortable for a while. Only the Chinese name was changed this time. Names are very important to China people. A person called this name for more than 20 years and suddenly changed his name, which made us very unaccustomed. I think Mavericks sounds kind, but it's a bit strange to be called a lone ranger. Why did the calf change its name?

The English name of the team is Dallas Mavericks. Dallas is a city in Texas, which has never changed. The focus is on the calf, which is the surname of a landlord in Dallas in the19th century. At that time, landlords liked to tattoo their surnames on cows, but calves disdained this kind of behavior and he didn't do it. Therefore, except for the brand-free cow, this surname is included in the dictionary, meaning unconventional and maverick.

Even according to allusions, it is definitely not a calf. Cuban didn't know the name until the NBA China game, so he thought it violated the meaning of the team name and the translation was inaccurate, so he suggested changing the name.

If the translator can't name the cow, then it will take so long, but Cuban knows that the cow is in front of fine print. Doesn't that mean weak? In addition, there is a bull in the NBA, whose name sounds like a brother. When I first heard about these two teams, I was surprised. Why do they have such a name? Later, I learned that it is called this in China, and people in China pay more attention to seniority, especially those who are not related by blood, which is also a symbol of status. The real meaning of the name calf is that China was crushed by a bull.

It is inevitable to change the name, but Cuban thought of a better way. He had people prepare several Chinese names related to the team, lone ranger, fierce pony and crazy horse. Why are they all horses? Because at that time, cowboys in the western United States rode horses to drive cattle, horses were also representatives, and the team emblem was also horses. To tell the truth, it feels strange to translate it into a cow. I am also in a hurry to change my name. The lone ranger only leads the crazy horse by 2000 votes and the fierce horse by 7000 votes. However, the name "Lone Ranger" is very good, which not only conforms to the meaning of the team, but also conforms to the aesthetics of the Chinese people. For Cuban, it has no influence on the NBA itself, but it is a new year for the China market.

Text/famous detective talking about the ball

When I first heard "Dallas Mavericks" and "Dallas Lone Ranger", which team name do you think is better? I believe that many people can give the answer quickly, and that is the latter. Before 20 18, the calf's name was "calf". Obviously, "Mavericks" failed to express the meaning needed by the team management and the boss, because Mavericks translated it as Mavericks leaving cows, so gradually, China fans acquiesced that "Mavericks" was the Chinese name of the Dallas Mavericks team. So why did Cuban change "The Mavericks" into "The Lone Ranger"?

When we hear the name "Mavericks", do we think this team is a bit "cute"? When Cuban visited China in 20 17, he was obviously unhappy when he learned that the translated name of the team was actually "Mavericks", because he thought that the original name of the team represented the meaning of strength and victory, and the name "Mavericks" failed to impress China fans at all. Understand the team culture to the greatest extent.

I believe that friends who hear the team name "Mavericks" will think it is weak and need help. That's not the real meaning of the team. The word "lone ranger" can be said to meet the requirements of the team name, especially the word "Xia", which is a top title in China. "Heroes" and "Chivalrous Men" are full of Jianghu spirit, with awe-inspiring righteousness and awe-inspiring justice. Therefore, the name "Lone Ranger" was widely praised as soon as it was promoted.

To sum up: in fact, the name of the team is more important, because the name of the team can represent a team's culture and what it wants to express. However, due to the problem of Chinese translation, there will still be some strange team names, such as Lakers and Spurs. I believe that most fans can't really understand what they mean. But what really matters is team culture and team strength. The team name is just icing on the cake.

NBA Dallas and Tencent Sports co-hosted the renaming event.

In this activity, thousands of China team names came into people's sight. After the joint screening of Mavericks official and Tencent Sports, the lone ranger became the new Chinese name of NBA Dallas. Mavericks was previously translated into English as Mavericks. In fact, the word also has an extended meaning, that is, the meaning of maverick, and the new team name obviously comes from this meaning. Cuban, the boss of "The Lone Ranger", hopes that the new name will be powerful and energetic, and hopes that the team will implement this concept. Cuban, his maverick boss, has always been known for his maverick. When talking about his own business, Cuban once said: "I like to do unique and unique things, and I like to challenge those opportunities that come once in a lifetime." The lone ranger is the spiritual embodiment of this team and the true portrayal of the team owner Cuban. This name change is mainly aimed at the China market, mainly considering that in China culture, the word "Xia" always makes people feel good, and it is also a kind of spirit that people pursue.

The Dallas boss also attached great importance to China's entry into the NBA from Bater and Wang, so he made China fans change their names to feel like masters and made the Lone Ranger their home team. At least Kubanda achieved his goal, and then the first team of Nuotianwang's life further explained this spirit. Let's support the lone ranger together.

Welcome to pay attention to "Eight Rings Chatting with the Ball" and share your opinions. Let's discuss it together!

First of all, let's learn the English name of calf. The English name of the calf is Dallas Mavericks, and the English meaning of the calf is a small animal without a brand. Cuban thinks that Mavericks represent strength, strength, victory and powerfulness, but the Chinese name of Mavericks can't explain the original intention of Mavericks well, so Cuban thinks that netizens should choose a China team name that is consistent with Mavericks' strength, victory and powerfulness, so he changed the name.

After being willing to change its name, Mavericks decided to cooperate with Tencent in September 20 17, and let many netizens choose from three team names. The team with the most votes will replace the Mavericks team name that has existed for 30 years. After netizens voted, the Mavericks got the most votes, so the Mavericks officially changed the team name to Mavericks.

What do you think of the calf's renaming as a lone ranger? Welcome to comment.

Why did the Dallas Mavericks change their name?

The media reported that Cuban, the owner of the Mavericks, learned that China fans call them Dallas Mavericks, while Cleveland is called Cavaliers, Golden State is called Warriors and Chicago is called Bulls. Cuban said that he was very dissatisfied and could not accept it. Moreover, he said that after his players learned the name, they all showed unacceptable behavior, and it was a bit weak to call it by name.

Cuban also knows that the Dallas Mavericks still have many fans in China, and his team is also very popular in China. Later, he said he wanted to find a new name for the team.

After three months of screening; Finally, Cuban got the names of three candidates; The voting results of the three names "Lone Ranger", "Crazy Pony" and "Crazy Horse" have come at 65438+10.3 Beijing time.

Fans also have different attitudes towards the voting results of the three names; Some people say that all three names should be tough and domineering. Some people say that they prefer "fierce colt" because it is more in line with the characteristics of horses.

Finally, in the game between Mavericks and Warriors at 65438+ 10-4 Beijing time, the Mavericks officially changed their name to "Dallas Mavericks", and the Dallas Mavericks will become history in the future.

Whatever the reason, Cuban insisted on changing his name, but it doesn't matter, Dallas is still Dallas. This is what I believe in eternity.
