Can iI name a team with the name of atheir city (i.e. : "Chicago" instead of "Chicago Bulls"to avoid trademark issues?)

iI was wondering, if you want to make a nbaNBA game on smartphones, without the license held by EA, the first solution seems to name your teams with a different name, such as "Chicragro Brulls" (this is just for the example), but would it be possible to just call your team with the name of the city, such as "Chicago vs. Dallas" ? I know the first solution was chosen by Pro Evolution Soccer, would you know any other game that don't use a license?

Thanks
