The Celtics are 1 of 2 of the original NBA teams that has not changed its name or its city.  What is the other?  Again no cheating and looking it up.

I believe Gandhi is the only person who knew about real democracy — not democracy as the right to go and buy what you want, but democracy as the responsibility to be accountable to everyone around you. Democracy begins with freedom from hunger, freedom from unemployment, freedom from fear, and freedom from hatred.

The Knicks is the correct answer. 

There are 10 other teams that have not changed their name or their city since entering the league.  Who are they?

Good question. I just tried to think of teams that have never moved and NYK is one of those teams.

Those are right, but I miscounted there is one other team (and I didn't count Denver who was the Denver Rockets their first ABA season)
