buzzcut Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 Legitimate mistake, or quick Illustrator work?NEW Oklahoma City Blue logo:Does this make the other one the shortest-lived logo ever?That's worse than the original one. And no, I'm not joking. This has to be the least inspired nickname/logo set in D-League history. The original d-league logos were better than this. The CCSLC's resident Geelong Cats fan. Viva La Vida or Death And All His Friends. Sounds like something from a Rocky & Bullwinkle story arc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JPDesign Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 if only there was a more Nike-esque explanation:"Just like the level of play in the D-League when compared to the NBA, we wanted this logo to be of comparable, but lesser quality to that of it's NBA counterpart."

DustDevil61 Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 Seriously, what was wrong with keeping the 66ers name?This also goes to show that the Oklahoma City Thunder whole-heartedly support their current logo.

They should be embarrassed. The version without the ball looks like it belongs on a can of shaving cream. My NFL concept series (in progress) --ATL, CLE, NE, WAS done. AZ updated 04/21/23.

TaylorMade Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 According to the mothership, the one that says "Oklahoma City" with the basketball lines is the secondary and the one without is the primary.

Gothamite Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 No, for all that logo's drawbacks at least it's a coherent design with concrete meaning. Worlds better. The Green Bay Packers Uniform Database! Now in a handy blog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xist2inspire Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 Holy cow, that's awful. Have they given any reason as to why they chose "Blue" as a name? Because that's as weird as it gets. Tradition is the foundation of innovation, and not the enemy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TaylorMade Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 Holy cow, that's awful. Have they given any reason as to why they chose "Blue" as a name? Because that's as weird as it gets."Blue is one of our primary Thunder colors, but it has become more than just a color for us. It has come to represent the passion, loyalty and unity of our fans and our community in their support for our team. Our players wear it proudly on their uniforms, our fans sport Thunder blue shirts, Thunder blue flags fly across Oklahoma and our statewide Blue Alliance fan groups show their connection to our team and what it stands for," said Brian Byrnes, Thunder senior vice president of Sales and Marketing."It is only fitting that our development team, which is such an integral part of our organization, be called the Blue to represent the cohesion it has with the Thunder. We think this new name accurately reflects the enhanced unity between the two teams, which are now geographically and philosophically aligned in Oklahoma City and focused on development."

A question that is a bit off topic...what is the font of Oklahoma City on that map? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
