Also, the Baltimore Bullets (I) played 1947-1955 and was disbanded November 27, 1955.

Gosh, I feel like JR doing this research.
You got it:

Chicago Packers
Chicago Zephyrs
Baltimore Bullets
Capital Bullets
Washington Bullets
Washington Wizards

The Portland NBA team is on it's way to the top - so far we have had the Portland Trailblazers and the Portland Jailblazers. Only four more to go!
