No kidding. In the world of :censored:ty, Microsoft Word-based logos, this truly stands out as the absolute worst.

 

As I look at these logos, I try to think of how they're being applied. As we know, real professional logos need to be placed on jerseys, shirts, programs, coffee mugs, letterhead, car flags, and so on and so forth. With so many of these terrible logos, anything other than throwing them up on a website (and maybe printed on a gameday flier) is basically impossible.

 

ABA 2000 has been around for several years now; I was surprised to learn there were still 2016-17 teams! Someone is doing well with those $10,000 entry fees. I wonder what's in it for the rest of them? There are club leagues better resourced than these.

OK, I'll bite . . . Why is there a thought bubble in the middle of the mushroom cloud?

 

. . . which is a separate question from . . . Why is there a mushroom cloud?

I can safely say that I've never heard of this team.  I have a morbid need to learn more.

Really? Did South Florida Gold have to steal the D-League-era Arkansas RimRockers' logo? By the way, for those who don't know what I'm saying, here's the logo of the RimRockers in the D-League (credits to this page: http://www.sportslogos.net/logos/list_by_team/2130/Arkansas_RimRockers/):

By the way, my early favorite among the ABA logos was that of Orlando Wave (as well as its secondary). The Wave's logos are the most decent among the bunch, maybe D-League-caliber?

image.jpegYou know all those "worst logos ever" threads? This doesn't just take the cake. It takes maybe 3 or 4 cakes. It looks like a logo an elementary school kid got his hands on Microsoft Word and said, "Stars are cool!" And slapped 10 of them on it, and put a basketball logo in the middle and called it a day.

This is a Fraser logo he did last year for a (the?) team participating in TBT (thetournament.com). Which is probably why it's the only good one so far.

Québec Kebs (Kebekwa) 2006-2009

The Kebs were only in the ABA from 2006-2008, IIRC, joining the PBL in 2009 and the NBL Canada for its inaugural season.

 

Previously, they had been proposed as the (I :censored: you not) Quebec Jumping Frogs...for obvious reasons, that was canned.

And now they still exist as the Montreal Jazz of the NBLC.

 

There seems to be some interesting ideas here for logos, but good gracious are most of these bad. I'll admit my fave so far is the Orlando Wave logo. I'd use that identity in NBA 2K as a replacement for the Magic.
